This is a belated thank you for arranging the sale of my home. Indeed, I was surprised to find that salesmanship and humanity could be combined so easily. I appreciated your guidance and concern for my personal needs. Of course, your Irish charm smoothed the discussions and I enjoyed that part!
Testimonials from Sellers
This is to thank you for the wonderful effort you made to sell my home in such a short time (2 weeks), after being listed for four months with O’Gorman & Mahon with no result. By listing with you not only was I spared expensive advertising campaigns , but your hard work and excellent negotiating abilities put you way ahead of many agents.
I’d like to take this opportunity to thank you for the extremely diligent and tenacious efforts on your part regarding the sale of my apartment on Balmoral beach. I feel that through your hard work I sold my property for a top price. In fact, the best price it could have reached and I am extremely pleased with the results.
How many ways are there to say ‘thank you’? If I knew I would employ every one of them to tell you how much I appreciate the more than considerable effort you have put in on my behalf. To sell my home on such a difficult market and make it appear as though done with consummate ease was magical to watch.
We wanted to write to you to thank you for the way you handled the sale of our home on Grasmere Road. We are absolutely delighted with the result. In short, the property sold for $110,000 over our asking price in less than three weeks! For anyone wishing to sell their property we highly recommend you and your approach, thank you once again for looking after us and for delivering a great result.
I have been selling IT and Telecommunications systems for over 20 years and I thought I knew a thing or two about selling. Let me tell you that with real estate it’s different. It is obvious to me that David has been well educated and trained in Real Estate sales yet manages to create an easy to like ‘non sales’ personality. From a salesman’s point of view it was fabulous to watch. This guy’s got the goods. The result he secured for me speaks for itself.
Your advice was always realistic and pragmatic and I was never in doubt that you were doing your utmost to sell my property at the best possible price, that is, that you were working ‘your damndest’ on my behalf. And what a negotiator! But what was most important to me is that it was done with integrity and sincerity. It was a pleasure to work with you.
We have no hesitation in recommending David Murphy as a sincere and considerate Real Estate Agent (yes there is such a thing).Always highly professional, we had no doubt that he did everything in his capacity to sell our unit for the best price in record time (3 weeks).
Enthusiasm, honesty, eagerness and genuine concerned friendliness with our situation were all a blessing. His follow up was faultless in keeping us advised at all stages and we sold our house in record time. Both Max and I highly recommend him to anyone selling and/or buying a property.
All I can say is I cannot recommend David highly enough to anyone looking for an agent who will get the job done well. When we decide to sell again, we hope David Murphy is still in the business.
With you at the helm, we achieved a record price! We could not be more pleased with the outcome and are very glad you were referred to us through friends, who also achieved an outstanding result through your services.
We are writing to genuinely thank you for selling our property. You affected a quick sale with a good result and always had our interests in mind. We have no doubt you did everything to sell our unit for the highest price, thank you!
You get what you wish for in David Murphy, a truly wonderful Real Estate professional who keeps you totally informed well beyond what you could even imagine.
David was able to secure a successful sale of my property in 2 weeks, after another well know Mosman agency had it listed for more than 4 months with little result!
I will certainly use David’s agency again and cannot speak highly enough of his efforts. A written reference does not do justice to his ability and negotiation skills.
Despite the difficult and deteriorating market conditions, the property was successfully and quickly sold, achieving both the desired price and David’s original estimate.
David’s understanding of the market is detailed and impressive. We have no hesitation recommending him.
When selling a property timely updates are the key, and with David these were most certainly constant.
His communication skills were first class, either via phone calls, SMS or email. In summary, I would most definitely recommend David to any potential seller.
I am writing to thank you for all of your efforts in relation to the recent sale of my investment property in Cremorne. I recall from the outset that your objective was that I would be happy enough to recommend your services to others – and I certainly am – so you succeeded!
David made the whole process seamless – from the first viewing to the final signing of the contracts. And importantly, we got what we believe to be the absolute best price. I would have no hesitation using David again or recommending him.
Over the past 20 years I have dealt with many agents either in a buying or selling capacity, I found David’s professionalism and diligence exceeded all other, his constant communication in the marketing program was well received and always honest during the difficult market conditions. I would not hesitate to recommend David and his team.
David was able to secure a successful sale of my apartment in 2 weeks, after another well known Mosman agency had the property listed for more than 4 months with little result!
You had my full confidence and I felt that you were ‘straight’ with me from the moment we first spoke. I found it so refreshing to find someone in the real estate industry that I could trust. Following your recommendations and advice we were able to sell the property with amazing speed and above our price expectations!
In the past I have found that the process of selling property usually ranks way down low on the fun scale. In fact, it can often feel as though you are on a nauseating roller coaster ride. Working with Matthew Johnson & David on the sale of my property has convinced me that it is possible for the process of selling property to be less of a rollercoaster and more akin to a ride on a Carousel.
David achieved an excellent outcome in terms of sale price in a very difficult market through his negotiating skills. This was after having our house with another well known real estate agency for six weeks. We are happy to strongly recommend David to anyone selling a property and are of the opinion they will be as impressed with his professionalism as we were.
Thank you and Lucy very much for your advice and efficient marketing in arranging the sale of our home in Mosman. At all times we found your attention to detail, your knowledge of the market and your persistence in following up prospective buyers to be of great support to us in achieving the right result. We have no hesitation in recommending you.
From the start to the sale of our property David was always professional and kept in touch all the way through. We found David to be extremely honest, professional and communicative throughout the whole process. We also didn’t expect to sell our place so quickly in this market and at such a great price. We were more than impressed and so delighted with the sale!
Throughout the whole sales process David and his team acted with integrity, passion and determination, resulting in a quick, successful sale at a very good price. In addition, the DMRE team, including the third party professionals that they work with, were lovely with a good sense of humour, making the whole process surprisingly enjoyable.
From the first day we met – you offered a very different approach to ‘the norm’ and your advice on everything from how to ready the house for sale to the running of the advertising and marketing campaign clearly displayed your extensive knowledge of the area and understanding of the prevailing market conditions. You achieved a price extremely close to your initial estimate which in the current real estate market is an outstanding result! Thank you very much and congratulations to your team.
We made the very difficult decision to sell our beloved apartment. The decision to use your services rather than another estate agent was an easy one. We always found you to be honest, genuinely friendly & professional. Ware very happy with how quickly the property sold and settled & with all the figures; both your fees and the sales price that you achieved for us.
As you know, we looked around and spoke to a number of real estate agents in the area before deciding that you were the one we wanted to work for us. By Wednesday of that week, our property had sold! We were totally surprised that it would sell so quickly and thrilled with the outcome. It was a terrific result and at the top end of our expectations. Overall the experience of selling our home was made easy due to your real estate expertise and professionalism.
Selling my home was a difficult event for me, which David was aware of and he made it as easy and as smooth as was possible. I wish David every success as he acts with integrity and enthusiasm. I would not hesitate to recommend him as a real estate agent.
Thank you for your exceptional realtor service and quality of advice in the sale of our home. We would highly commend you to prospective sellers for general approach, reliability, straight talking, attention to detail and value for money.
When my husband & I decided to sell our property, we asked around for a reputable real estate agent on the lower north shore. David Murphy’s name came up time & time again. David & Matthew worked overtime to get us a record price after just two weeks on the market. It would be a mistake not to have these guys as your agent. You were both a pleasure to work with.
We were introduced to David through the purchase of our new home. We were impressed by his professionalism in acting for the seller. Our timeframe for selling our unit was quite tight and David’s team was certainly experienced and up to the task. Our property sold within 3 weeks achieving a significant record price for the apartment block. David worked really hard for his fee and we felt that with the level of service and attention we received, it was good value.
Fred & I wish to thank you sincerely Matthew for your help. We certainly will have no hesitation in recommending you to our friends. Your personal approach as a realtor was preferable to the push of the big companies.
When we met with David Murphy, he was better prepared and knew the current Mosman market better than the other real estate agents. He sold our apartment quickly and for the price he had indicated. David’s personal attention to his clients and his friendly, honest & positive nature provided us with a great deal of confidence.
Our objective was to sell quickly but get a strong price – you met our objective in 2 weeks in a tough real estate market, thank you!
We were amazed how quickly you sold our home whilst achieving the price we wanted, we wish you all the best in the future.
David recently sold our house in 3 weeks for a record street price. I would recommend them to anyone thinking of selling their property.
I am delighted with the speed of the sale of my home, we achieved a price far higher than any of us imagined with a minimum of fuss & expense.
We could not have been happier with the result – we would highly recommend them as real estate agents.
Your assessment was honest & accurate and you kept me informed along the way. The fact that it was sold so quickly was such a bonus!
Within days we were presented with 2 excellent offers and soon we were sold! We recommend David Murphy Real Estate to everyone we know.
You held our hands through the whole process, kept your sense of humour, and put up with our constant questions. Not only that, the house sold in a just over a week for the price we wanted. Your sincerity, firmness when required, and friendliness towards our whole family is greatly appreciated.
We both appreciated your enthusiasm and positiveness. Being interstate vendors it was especially important that we have regular and informative feedback and you exceeded our expectations in this regard.
David did a fantastic job in selling our property, he was realistic genuine, persistent and delivered in selling a property where other agents in the area had struggled.
David was in regular contact and we really found a sense of partnership and trust when working with him.
Your high level of integrity, commitment, and without "spin" genuine approach is be admired. You achieved what we consider to be a good price in a difficult declining market.
If you continue in this vein you will give Agents in this area a "good name
For a transaction that is generally considered stressful, the experience was anything but. Personally, I appreciate open, honest interactions and really felt that your staff went out of the way to ensure that my needs (stated or unstated) were consistently met.
David met with us within a day of first contacting him and it was a simple and smooth process from there on in - he gave us both confidence and practical advice through to completion.
What a relief!!! We managed to find an agent that was personal, professional, reliable and honest.
Thank you David for your unfailing commitment to selling our home and achieving an excellent price - your initial valuation of our property proved to be spot on
We enjoyed a very successful, stress-free, in fact enjoyable, sales experience with David Murphy and his team.
David's professional attitude along with his maintaining a genuine interest in us and our house were defining in the sale process. He and his team particularly Natalie went to no end of trouble to ensure a smooth process and successful outcome.
David gave us great advice on our options for sale, marketing strategy and preparation of the apartment. His communication was excellent, we were kept informed, but not pressurized, as the process developed. We found David inclusive, honest and ethical
We cannot speak highly enough of your enthusiasm and energy in assisting us throughout the sale process, including getting the unit ready for the market… Your professionalism made the selling of our property a pleasant experience.
These guys know their stuff and are really lovely people too. I hearlity recommend them as the agents to sell your home.
David was able to bring an important combination of sensitivity and humour to the sales process… he remained vigilant throughout the campaign and was able to achieve a result that was significantly above our established threshold and a positive result.
Their marketing strategy was carefully considered, being specifically and appropriately designed without many of the extra overheads suggested by others, resulting in a quick and successful sale.”
I really appreciate all your help and over and above efforts.
Not only was the process a fuss free success but it was truly a pleasure dealing with you and your team for the second time in our lives
I would recommend David Murphy Real Estate to anyone who wants an agent that tells them the truth, doesn’t spend your money unnecessarily on agency branded advertising and most importantly, someone who has a genuine long term vested interest in the outcome
Dear Lucy
You have done an outstanding job for us throughout this house buying process
Starting with your listening ear to gain a true understanding of our needs, through to your decisiveness when the right property came up and your keen negotiation skills. If we had met you earlier, it would have saved us a great deal of time and energy, but on the other hand we may not have fully appreciated your knowledge of the market, strategic thinking around the process and some key expert contacts (eg. building inspector).
We are now urging our property hunting friends to quit sweating it out alone and to seek your assistance. You enabled us to secure a rare offering within our strict budget and without the stress and worry we would normally have endured. We are very grateful - thank you.
