Attention to detail fantastic

Danielle and her Team were great to deal with there level of professionalism was fantastic. I was very impressed with the attention to detail that she showed. A great example as our property was vacant for sale that she was getting to the property early to air the property out and clean up any dead fly on the floor.

I also loved that she was very prompt in getting perspective purchasers through and fed back positive and negative feed back to myself so that I could change things to help in the sale Read More

‘’ Hammertime “ With Hamish

Well it’s been said that “if all’s ya got’s a hammer, all’s ya can see is nails” and when we first met Hamish Opray we quickly realised that this was one Blacksmith who wouldn’t leave us in the Red when it came to fantastic customer service, integrity, honesty and pretty much everything you would want from dealing with a real estate professional.

As a representative for the vendor it was Hamish’s responsibility to ensure that his client received the best possible outcome for the sale of their property, but you can’t do that unless you have the necessary skill sets and ability to build a relationship and report with potential purchasers as well.

Hamish’s friendly and can do attitude made it a no brainer for us to want to ‘’saddle up’’ and join his “purchase posse” and it wasn’t long before his ‘’anvil’’ was busy ‘’forging’’ out a deal for us to “nail down”

So, don’t submit yourselves to the “blast furnace “ of sub standard agents - “giddy up” and go straight to the man who always makes sure the lucky horseshoes are facing upwards - Hamish Opray ! Read More

Testimonial from
Hamish kept me informed and was totally professional.

Intially when we put the house on the market the timing was not great and I had expectations which were not as the market read the value of my house.

It was a very different market and not a lot of interest so

I took it off and was about to rent it long term. Sotheby’s found the purchaser and the sale from my point of view was a relative easy transfer. I was more than happy with Hamish and the way he kept me informed. Read More

Thank you Hamish!

Working with Hamish Opray and the Peninsula Sotheby's team for the sale of our home in Sorrento was a pleasure.

Hamish and the team were professional, thorough, thoughtful, honest and excellent communicators throughout.

Their knowledge of the Peninsula, far reaching contacts and strategy for our campaign led to an incredible outcome, which we're so grateful for. We'd absolutely recommend Hamish and look forward to working with him again in the future. Read More

Testimonial from Lou   Janette
Highly Recommended - Hardworking and Trustworthy

We highly recommend Patrick to anyone wishing to sell or purchase property in Portsea/Sorrento. He is an excellent communicator.

We first met him at an open for inspection 5 or so years ago and from that time kept in touch to discuss the property market generally. He was always willing to provide his advice which we found to be accurate and consistent. When it was time for us to sell our family home which we built ~13 years ago we again sought Patrick's opinion and trusted his recommendations. As a result we achieved a positive outcome, in the timeframe Patrick forecast.

He and the Sotheby's team worked hard for us. Patrick in particular put his muscles to work and helped us re-arrange furniture and organised our storeroom. On the day we moved out, Patrick even took away some bags of rubbish for us!

Highly recommended. Read More

Rob and the team provide a sense of urgency and clear direction during a year like no other.

This is our 3rd property sold with Rob Curtain and this transaction was as smooth as the first. Sotheby’s can-do pro-active attitude is a key point of difference, supported by the proven track record and clearly dominating the local Peninsular market since 2014.

Rob - Lauren and I sincerely appreciate your care and direction during the campaign, backed up by the support of your team… Sotheby’s superior customer engagement doesn’t go unnoticed with us.

Whether you’re buying or selling we would highly recommend Rob and the team and wish the broader Sotheby’s business all the success in the future.

I found dealing with Rob & team to be quite an enjoyable & seamless experience...fun in fact.

I very much appreciated the professionalism of the team @ PSIR

Selling a family property can be an emotional and tricky time & I think Sotheb'y approach around this

was exemplary. Other things that stand out for me in what was a very successfull campaign,

was the independent styling of the property, the ability of Sotheby's to use social media to increase interest & momentum...and then of course a wonderfull auction result ! Read More

Teamwork begins by building trust

Fantastic result achieved from Sotheby’s Peninsula for the sale of my home in Sorrento. They are one of the most professional and helpful teams I have ever worked with when selling a home. Their main attributes are working as a team, not as individuals, to achieve the best outcome for your property. Their skills in getting your house ready for sale, photography, continual guidance during the sale process, then of course their skill in closing the deal are all second to none.

Sincere thanks to you all.

Testimonial from Lewis Butler
Excellent experience with all the staff at Southeby’s

In our selection process of agents we interviewed a number of firms.

In our initial meeting with Rob,Patrick and Danielle we were shown how their experience and attention to detail enabled us to set a program that allowed us to maximise the value of our property.

They detailed to us their observations and our strengths in our property and how it should be presented.

They also assessed the market both in pricing and our potential purchasers. In both cases they were correct even after discussion amongst them selves. I found it refreshing to be a participant in this where I could listen to discerning views and then have them settle on a coherent strategy that we could employ. This was especially important as a result of the Covid lockdowns and getting us first to market post lockdown.

Patrick was especially astute to our needs and gave a result that was achieved by the first Saturday after listing on Tuesday Night. Read More

Testimonial from Don Boulter
Classy Operation @ Sotheby’s

Hamish and the team located the perfect buyer for our house. Two inspections with one buyer and the deal was sealed. Excellent feed back and kept us in the picture for the whole experience. Certainly the Agency to use if you own a quality property. Read More

Testimonial from Warwick R
Excellent Agent

I would highly recommend Hamish Opray - He made selling my large plot of land at Portsea a real pleasure. His skill set and his congeniality made him the perfect agent to sell what was a very challenging block. His experience and common sense approach also allowed him to manage some tricky issues with both potential buyers and neighbours.

Can't recommend him highly enough. Read More

Over and Above

Dani at all times was the utmost professional. She goes over and above to ensure both vendor and purchasers are happy. Right from the onset she was approachable with her communication and open to our thoughts, whilst sharing her own extensive knowledge of the area and opinion. Dani worked hard on our campaign right from photo day to settlement, for that we are very thankful.

We would highly recommend Dani to anyone with a high quality home to sell as why wouldn't you use a high quality agent, with equal ethics. Read More

We would highly recommend Rob & Patrick to any vendor. Read More
