Dave was a pleasure to work with and learn from. He was up front about the sale potential of this property, and gave me great advice about what to do, and not do, in regards to selling this property to the greatest benefit to the heirs of this estate. Dave is easy to contact, reliable with his time lines, explains things in easily understood terms, and is very relatable. He also comes with a lovely team of wonderful people, who are supportive, informative, friendly and knowledgeable. If I'm in a position to sell a property again, I'll be giving you a yell Dave. Thank you very much.

He was factual and didn't try pressuring us at all. I felt I could trust him and his team which was a very important issue for me having had a very negative experience selling a home in the past. I selected Dave partly because of a recommendation and party his friendly, knowledgeable manner. I I did not use rate my agent as I didn't know it existed. I enjoyed working with Dave, Leanne and Rachel. I would definitely use Dave and team in the future and would not hesitate to recommend them.

Here’s a version that keeps your warm, down-to-earth tone and reads like a natural recommendation without being too polished or “salesy”: --- We honestly couldn’t have asked for a better team than Dave, Rachel and Leanne. They moved at our pace, which at the time was a sprint. Somehow they kept everything calm and very clear along the way because we certainly weren't that calm. We loved our house and were sad to sell, but they marketed it showing all the beauty that made us fall in love, and that's what the buyers fell in love with too. We felt so valued by this. They really listened to us, gave great guidance without ever being pushy, and made us feel like our efforts to present the house well were truly appreciated. It felt like we were all in it together, on the same page, working toward the same goal—and that’s exactly how it played out. The house sold in five days, not because it was rushed, but because the strategy was spot on and the communication was clear from day one. Don’t let anyone tell you that a quick sale means underselling. With this team, there’s no chance of that. They’re upfront, fair, and treat buyers with respect too, ensuring everyone gets a chance to put their best foot forward. What could have been stressful was simple, supported, and even fun. Their commission is absolutely worth every cent. We won’t go with anyone else in future, they are just magic. Trust them to do their job and you can't go wrong

We first meet Dave ROBINSON when we looked through another property he was the listing agent for. We didn't end up purchasing that property in the end but that was no fault of Dave's. We found him awesome to deal with, so friendly, accommodating and knowledgeable. During that process we also dealt with Leanne SUTHERLAND who was equally as impressive. When we viewed the property, we ended up purchasing we had no hesitation in requesting we deal with Dave and again he was amazing and managed to secure us the property. We would definitely use Dave and Leanne again; they are a Dynamic Duo!
