Mary Howell acted as my Buyer Agent for a property in the South Coast. Mary was amazing. She helped me find my new home, researched the market and suggested an offer which was accepted. She further negotiated the terms of the purchase for me and attended a pre-settlement inspection. I absolutely love my new home & thank Mary for helping me buy it. The whole process was easy with Mary. She truly cares for her clients and wants the best outcome for them. Her extensive experience in real estate, negotiations and client service is amazing. Thank you Mary.
Nicole Jacobs of Cohen Handler helped me find and secure my new home in Daylesford, and I cannot recommend her highly enough. Over almost a year, Nicole and I must have met countless times and inspected an extraordinary number of properties. Throughout the process, she was not only an excellent buyer’s agent, but also an enormous source of support. Coming out of a divorce, I knew I was vulnerable to making an emotional decision. In a falling market, it was particularly important not to overpay, and Nicole made absolutely certain that I did not. She taught me a great deal about property negotiations, including how to distinguish genuine competition from pressure created by a vendor, and how important it is to remain disciplined when a property feels emotionally right. In the end, we found the right home in Daylesford and purchased it for almost $500,000 less than the price it had originally been guided at nine months earlier. Nicole remained patient, strategic and completely committed until we achieved the right result. More than anything, Nicole is simply a wonderful human being. She is intelligent, honest, caring and an absolute pleasure to work with. I have enormous affection and respect for her, and I am deeply grateful that she guided me through such an important new chapter of my life
I can’t thank Marcus and Doron enough. From our first conversation to settlement, and beyond, they were professional, responsive, and supportive throughout the entire process. Their communication was excellent, always keeping me informed and making the experience straightforward and stress-free. Their negotiation skills were outstanding, securing a great outcome, in just a couple of days and giving me confidence every step of the way. I recommend them wholeheartedly. It was a pleasure working with them.
I had a great experience dealing with Jordan Segreto, who was successful in securing a property for his client that I sold. He was very easy to deal with throughout the process, and it was clear he always had his client’s best interests in mind during negotiations.
We never thought we needed a buyer’s agent, but after several months of searching on our own and struggling to find something that suited our needs and budget, we decided to reach out to Thomas and Daniel. Within just a week, they helped us find a property we absolutely loved. From start to finish, they were informative, professional, and incredibly supportive throughout the entire process. Our case was complex due to some challenging circumstances on the vendor side, but Thomas and Daniel handled the negotiations exceptionally well and ultimately secured the property for us at the price we were hoping for. Having them in our corner made a huge difference, not only in achieving a great outcome but also in taking away so much of the stress and uncertainty that comes with buying property. We had an excellent experience and will not be purchasing another property in Sydney without their help.
Marcus and Doron are a great team. They understood the brief and were highly communicative throughout the process. Marcus provided excellent guidance during the negotiation and persisted until late night to secure the deal. Highly recommend!
Recently Michael assisted me to find apartment in Sydney following my new job. With me living in Melbourne Michael did all the heavy lifting - he conducted inspections, making videos, reviewing strata reports, speaking with agents and giving me his professional view. In my view Michael went about and beyond and I am forever grateful. Michael made this transition easier for me. Thanks to Michael and team at Cohen handler. Highly recommend. Thanks
