I would just like to take this opportunity to thank you for the thoughtful gesture regarding the presentation of the house keys and the bottle of wine, and all of the exceptional service you and your team provided throughout the contract period. It made purchasing my first Queensland home a very pleasant experience.
I would also like to express my sincere thanks to you for calling me as stated when the original contract fell through thus giving me the chance to buy the house. It had been a long 6 months spent searching.
I am very happy in the house and like the feel of the suburb.

I was fortunate enough to be introduced to Robin Newton at The Gap Chamber of Commerce meeting. I was so impressed with her honesty, genuine friendliness & competence in talking about Real Estate matters that when my husband & I decided to put our house on the market weeks later, we chose to employ Robin as our sole agent. Due to many adverse factors, our home took six months to sell. In this time though, we found Robin to be exceptional in her efforts & totally ethical.
Without her encouragement, calm efficient manner & her complete knowledge of the Real Estate business, we would have given up the quest to move on many occasions. Our trust in her is complete. We have no hesitation in recommending Robin to anyone we meet who is interested in buying & selling Real Estate. In fact we try to guide such people in her direction in order to save them the frustrations & trauma that the business can & does entail.

I want to acknowledge the professional expertise I received in dealing with Realty 1 The Gap when selling my property. My property was listed with Nick Stankiewicz, a Realty 1 agent, as his very first listing. At all times Nick was courteous and enthusiastic, listening to my concerns and forthcoming with helpful suggestions. I am pleased to report that this translated into Nick’s first sale. I recommend Nick as an outstanding young agent who delivers excellence in his professional role serving The Gap real estate market. I could not speak anymore higher then I speak of Nick and Realty 1, they made me feel relaxed about the selling process. Good work Nick !!

Gayle & I could not leave The Gap without expressing our heartfelt appreciation for the excellent service that Realty 1 has provided in the process of the sale of our house. We would especially like to thank Sherryl Dobbie. Sherryl has been a tremendous tower of support to Gayle and myself. Her excellent people skills, empathy, determination and regular communication was fantastic and it especially comes over that Sherryl has a real dedication to her position at Realty 1. Realty 1 has managed to sell our house during a difficult economic period and Sherryl put us at ease and made us feel that we were working as a team to achieve the objective. It is going to be sad for us to leave this beautiful suburb and the many friends that we have made. However, we look forward to settling into our new home.

Thank you for the exceptional service you provided during the recent sale of our property at 23 Marral Street, The Gap. Your honest, professional and friendly approach gave us confidence the daunting task of selling and relocating would not be so painful. We were extremely impressed with your willingness to listen to and accommodate our many requests, particularly with regard to setting a price. Furthermore, your ability to negotiate a sale at full listing price was simply outstanding. We encourage you to refer us as referees to potential clients, the opportunity to support engaging you as an agent would be a privilege. Again, thank you for helping us achieve our goal.
Lisa & Darren Shirley (23 Marral Street, THE GAP)
Both Gloria & I would like to express our heartfelt thanks to you and your team for your efforts in selling our house. We recognise & gratefully thank all of your for your efforts - the "open houses" that you hosted on numerous Saturdays, the potential buyers you took through the house on follow-up visits, and your professionalism in making sure the house was securely locked up when you left. We never had any concerns about the security of the house or the items that we left in it. You managed the sale with enthusiasm & care. Gloria & I again salute the professionalism of your work. And last but not least, we have both appreciated the friendliness, attention, patience & genuineness of your Staff. It has been a pleasure to do business with you.

Dear Sherryl,
I am writing to commend you for the outstanding manner in which you handled the recent sale & purchase of our homes at The Gap.
It is rare in any sales field to encounter a person with your integrity & honesty. At all times you acted with the highest standard of professionalism, maintaining a down to earth approach & were ready to listen to OUR needs & expectations.
From start to finish, I found you to be reliable, hardworking & accessible. Clearly you are willing to “go the extra mile” in the interests of your clients, regardless of what’s in it for you. Such traits will continue to make you successful.
The timeliness of your communication meant that your truly did become “a part of the family” throughout the process, as you warned in our initial discussions!
Given the above, I have no hesitation in recommending you to potential buyers & sellers as a person who will put their interests first to create a win-win situation for everyone.
My very best wishes for a prosperous career!
Kind regards,
K.S.

I have no hesitation in recommending Realty 1, especially, Sherryl Dobbie, to any prospective clients. I have found Sherryl to be very courteous and she kept me well informed at all times. Nothing was too much trouble for her and she left no stone unturned.
Sherryl was always cheerful, friendly, and most importantly, professional during all dealings. Not only did she do everything needed to sell the house, but she went the extra mile with all she did.
The service from all the Realty 1 staff was exceptional and I would recommend their services to any of my colleagues and friends.

Dear Tina,
This note is to thank you and your team once again for your excellent work you have performed to complete the sale of my investment property in The Gap. I would also be grateful if you could pass my thanks to Jessica McCleland for the perfect management of this property over the last seven years.
I cannot fault Realty 1 property management. You managed my property for 7 years from 2002. Your team always provided the best service and advice. Because I live in New South Wales, I was always dependent on your team to manage this property well. It was very helpful that you inspected the property often and advised me of any issue before they became expensive problems. I was impressed with all the tradespeople who you organised to work on my property. They did good work at a reasonable price.
You ran a great sales campaign in a difficult market and I am very pleased that you achieved a result that was in the agreed target price range. Obviously your team, especially Nick Stankiewicz, put a great deal of effort into this sale. Nick obviously has a great contagious enthusiasm for his work and I am sure this positively affected buyers. It is fantastic that the property was under contract for most of the time that it was on the market. It was unfortunate and frustrating that a number of the potential buyers failed to achieve finance due to difficult financial circumstances at the moment. But your team was incredibly determined and persistent to sell the property and to do it at the best price available.
Finally, I cannot thank you enough Tina for your personal involvement in this sales campaign. You steered the sales campaign with gusto. You were always positive and you provided great advice to me in this matter.
Thanks again to you, Tina and your team for everything.
Regards,
G. O’Neill

We are more than pleased to provide this comment about Colleen Maloney
We'd like to thank Colleen very much for the professional way she guided us through the selling process. She provided excellent advice on how to prepare the property and, when it finally went on the market, was in regular communication with us regarding Open House occasions. She proved to be an astute valuer and negotiator. We feel very fortunate to have been able to access her experience and professionalism.

Dear Sherryl,
Thanks so much for all you’ve done for me over the last 60 days. You were more than a real estate agent to me – you provided way beyond that role and I thank you for the support you shower. I will certainly recommend you to others.
With appreciation,
H.H.
