Niki Peinke knows how to sell houses! I had full confidence in Niki's ability to sell my house in Shenton Park. Unlike other agents, she didn't tell me what she thought I wanted to hear - she told me how the market was really performing and offered a realistic pricing and sales strategy. Niki was able to substantiate her opinions with detailed market research in the Shenton Park area and I had full confidence that she would be able to achieve the suggested price with a fast turnaround. Niki and Chelsea gave me some very practical advice on home presentation and provided details of some great trades people. I received 3 offers after only one home open and the house was sold the next day. I wasn't looking for an agent who was going to be my new best friend, I was seeking someone efficient and professional and Niki was certainly that.

I have been a client of The Property Exchange for 15 plus years and have always had excellent service from buying properties to selling them. Niki and the team are the best agents I have ever had. They kept in communication with me, even if it meant toll calls overseas and continually updated me and kept me informed all the time. I cannot recommend them highly enough and their service has been greatly appreciated.

We would use The Property Exchange again! Niki provided some great initial advice on the market which was helpful in our deliberations. It certainly wasn't a sell job for a quick sale of our Subiaco house. Once we did decide to sell we had lots of friends providing advice on the best way to position our property and we strongly challenged Niki on her process. She and Chelsea held firm on how best to present and market the property and it turned out very well with a good price and a clean process.
Niki started out her working life as a psychologist with Mental Health Services after attaining a Bachelor of Psychology at UWA. (She now find this particularly useful when selling homes!) In 1978 she moved to South Africa for 6 years and got into a career in Public Relations within the hospitality industry, working for the Southern Sun group of hotels Holiday Inns and a very upmarket private Hotel named The Vineyard. In 1984 she returned to Perth and attained a position as Public Relations Manager of the Merlin Hotel (now The Hyatt) she then 2 years later opened her own version of The Hard Rock Café in Hay Street, Subiaco, which was a resounding success and used to still be humming until the kitchen closed at 3 am in the morning! She ran this until it was bought by Matilda Bay Brewing Company and renamed The Oriel.
