What customers say

Based on genuine customer reviews

Investors building a rental portfolio, vendors preparing to sell and tenants searching for a home all appear among the accounts left for this Ballarat office, and the theme that surfaces most often is how promptly the team responds. Angie Finch is named frequently, described as approachable and willing to answer questions about investment properties, with owners noting that emails were answered quickly and that she coordinated inspections for interstate buyers. Casey earns steady praise as a property manager for turning around inspections and applications at speed and for listings whose photographs matched or improved on what renters found in person.

Blair is credited with keeping owners informed throughout leasing and sales and following up on small details, while Shane is linked to vendor advocacy and the persistence required to carry a campaign through to settlement. Long-standing clients describe decade-long relationships spanning purchase, rental and eventual sale, and newcomers value straightforward dealings and value for money in property management. Repeat business, referrals and transactions that run smoothly from first enquiry to final paperwork are the outcomes customers keep highlighting, along with the coordination needed when a purchase, lease and later sale all pass through the same office.

Barry Plant Ballarat are absolutely magnificent. I would highly recommend them to everyone. I personally had issues with a lease I entered into, and had a few staff members (Blair, Angie and also Ben) assisting us with this. All of them were extremely professional, friendly and kind, and although their loyalties at the end of the day are with the landlord they still helped me tremendously and for that I am so grateful. In future I would without any hesitation use Barry Plant Ballarat for both sale and leasing purposes. Thank you very much for your kindness during a stressful time it is so appreciated.

We had a great experience renting through this agency. The team was professional, responsive, and helpful throughout the entire process. Any questions or maintenance requests were handled promptly. We appreciate their support and would recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable property manager.

Casey from Barry Plant was extremely professional and helpful during the inspections and applications we put through. We saw a number of properties in her portfolio and the online photos were either true to life or the properties were better in person, which was a great change from some other places we inspected through. Everything was turned around really fast and we secured a fantastic rental with Casey’s help. Highly recommend.

Shane, Angie and my rental manager Ben had looked after my investment property for ten years with great care. From the day I purchased the property to the day I finally settled ten years later, I have been in good hands. Great communication from both Shane and Angie in helping me sell my property 🏠 Thank you all!

A pleasure to deal with. Been with them since 2016 and never had a single problem with their service. They make things easy with little fuss and no delays. Very efficient!
