"I would
like to thank you very much for the efficient and
professional job that you did selling my property at
Mardells Road, Coffs Harbour. I greatly appreciated the
thought you gave to the best means to sell the property and
the attention you gave to the succeeding Auction, both prior
to it and afterwards. I was amazed at how quickly the
property collected interest and was sold, despite it's
unusual character. I will not hesitate to recommend your
services as you were highly approachable throughout all
stages of the promotion and sale and kept me well informed
of events as they occurred. Best wishes and much thanks,"

Over the past
fifteen years we have been clients of NSW Real Estate.
During that time we have purchased properties, sold
properties and been involved in the rental market. We would
recommend this company to any person wishing to get involved
in any of these aspects of the property market. The support
and personal care afforded by this company extends from
Chris Biggs, the Principal, to the girls on the reception
and includes the sales team with Grant Larsen as Sales
Manager, the rental section with Rhy Pickering
as the Manager and the accounts department under Joanne
Wilson. Not only does this company support and look after
it's clients, but also the members of the staff and this
makes for the friendly atmosphere that is evident when you
become involved with any member of this team that never
hesitates to go the extra mile.

Dear Grant,
This letter
is very overdue but it is to thank you for the support that
you have given to us both in the purchase of the Nautilus
Resort properties and the sale of the Unit at Pacific Towers. There
is little doubt in our mind the advice that you have given
us has been advantageous to us. Your support both in the
past and in the future is very valuable to us and for this
and other reasons we would recommend you to anyone that is
needing help in any aspect of the property market.
Yours sincerely,
- John & Judy Davies, Tamworth

"Thanks
Grant,
We’ve been more than happy with the service provided by
you and your staff since the commencement of the
purchase. Many thanks to you all and rest assured that
should we decide to further invest in your area of
operation we will certainly refer to you."
- David and Josephine Stevens
112 Combine
Street, Coffs Harbour
"I thought I
should write you a note regarding the excellent service
Grant Larsen has given us: settlement is due tomorrow on
what has proven to be a challenging property to sell. Grant
has now handled three property sales for us: a unit in
Arthur Street, two villas in Combine Street and this last –
primary residence before moving to Kratz Drive. On each
occasion he has been a pleasant professional to work with –
and he has gone out of his way to assist us on every
occasion with hints as to how we can better prepare and
present the property providing valuable advice that we have
acted upon. In pricing 112 Combine Street well above market
value, we realised we had given Grant a tough assignment: he
ran far more than the usual number of showings for the
property – and would probably still be doing so had we not
taken 10% off our original price. At this lower level he was
able to find a buyer within a week or two. In the years we
have known him he has never failed to be cheerful obliging
and competent he provides valuable feedback after showings
and would be the person we would choose to sell this
property as and when we make our next move."

"I wish to thank you for your continued assistance in our
purchase and sales in Coffs Harbour. Your providing of regular updates of sales at the Nautilus Resort has

"Now
that the sale of my late mother’s property is completed, I would like to
take this opportunity to thank you for your excellent and consistent
service from the date of listing through to sale completion and
settlement. As executor of my mother’s estate, I have been extremely
busy since she passed away, dealing with all aspects of her estate and
her personal affairs and I anticipated that the sale of her former home
would be the most cumbersome task that I would have to manage. I am
pleased to say this was definitely not the case. Thanks to your
professional handling of this matter, it required very little effort on
my part. Your high level of integrity and your regular and spontaneous
progress reports left me in no doubt that I had chosen the best person
and agency for this task. I am certainly grateful that you were
recommended to me. Thank you for making my job so much easier.

"We
are writing to express our appreciation for the work
recently carried out by Mr. Grant Larsen during the purchase
of Nymboida Close. Grant was at all times courteous, friendly, efficient and
honest in all our dealings with him. Even the smallest
detail was attended to
expeditiously and with good humour. The ladies on the front
desk are also very helpful and friendly and make sure all
communications are passed on, without fail. We would
thoroughly recommend the services of both Grant Larsen and
NSW Real Estate to anyone requiring such services."

"Many
thanks for all your help, along with the team at NSW Real Estate, in the
process of my property purchase. I had been searching for more than 12
months for a property appropriate for my and my children's needs. As I
mentioned to you
previously, I have never acted so quickly in purchasing a property as I
realised that this
had to be "the one". The whole process of searching for a
property or "trawling" Coffs was rather like fishing so I am
pleased to say I finally "landed"
one. I am pleased to say your
professionalism exceeded my expectations. Thanks!!

only did Grant Larsen of NSW Real Estate sell our home in a
very short period of time, he managed to achieve $10,000 over
the asking price!What a wonderful result in the very fickle and
difficult market for properties priced over $600,000.As we were going through a major upheaval in our lives,
his calm and thoroughly professional manner lessened the
stress of what could have been another ulcer inducing
nightmare.Honest, trustworthy and true to his word….that’s
our Grant.As well as being our preferred salesperson, we are
proud to call him our friend and highly recommend both him and
NSW Real Estate to any prospective buyers and sellers."

"Thankyou
for your assistance in all matters relating to the purchase, rental
and sale of 5/40 Boultwood St, Coffs Harbour. When my wife and I
first started to look for property to purchase as an investment in
Coffs I found your service exemplary. Your personal attitude had alot
to do with our purchase of a property in Coffs and your firm's
professionalism was refreshing. This prompted us to utilise your firm
as our property managers. In this you are without a doubt the best
real estate firm I have ever dealt with. Please pass on my warmest
thanks to your Rental Department.
Finally
there was the sale. Your continued attention in a difficult market,
your understanding of our requirements and position and most of all
your patience are all sincerely appreciated. Perseverance is not
something I see in real estate agents but Grant, you managed it. I
have a long history with property having purchased by first investment
at the age of 19 over 15 years ago. In addition I worked for the
government for over a decade in an area where I dealt with real estate
regularly in sales, purchases and rentals. NSW Real Estate and you,
Grant, have given excellent service and will get my recommendaton. Of
the many real estate agents I have dealt with you are one of the very
best. Thankyou for your ongoing attention in relation to our Coffs
Harbour property."

as a person has been greatly valued and your prompt
response to my suggestions re advertising adjustments

helpful advice and for the prompt service in which you showed
while selling our house and our land in Kotuku street. Both my husband and I couldn't be happier, as you did what
you told us you would do when you sold both our properties and allowed
us to be a family again. If we need to sell again or buy we
will be returning to you and also if we have friends who need to
buy or sell we will be advising them to see you, as we are

Grant and Susan so
much for my very quick sale, which enables me to move to the Retirement Village.
I can't think
of one thing extra you could have done to help me. Having dealt with you Grant
before, I expected no more than the courtesy and help I received. I would
certainly recommend you both to any prospective Vendor or Buyer as being
"the best". My sincere thanks."

would like to thank you both for the successful sale of our property at 21
Corrigan Avenue, Toormina. We have found the service
provided by you to be extremely professional, yet friendly, helpful and at all
times politely dealt with - nothing was too much trouble. We also appreciate the
constant communication my email, telephone and mail so that we were always aware
of purchaser interest and times of private and open inspections. We believe the advertising on your website to be of an exceptional standard, a very thorough exposé
of each property with comprehensive virtual tours, surpassing the standards of
many of the local agents in the Coffs Harbour District."

"We
would highly recommend NSW Real Estate, Coffs Harbour to anyone buying, selling
or looking for someone to manage their property. We found them to be far above
the rest in adding a special personal touch and always being available after
hours by phone. In
the 12 months of NSW managing our property, we have never had any problem with
keeping it tenanted and we were always kept up to date. When placing our
property for sale, Grant Larsen made a great effort in achieving a high standard
on Auction day, making sure we received more than we ever expected. I would
really like to thank both Grant Larsen and his cheerful assistant Susan Fischer,
for making our Coffs Harbour investment property a delightful and rewarding
experience."

you for all your efforts with regard to our purchase of 22 Norfolk Crescent,
Coffs Harbour. In all our previous experiences with real estate, we have never
encountered such friendly and professional service. At every stage of the
process we were kept informed and up to date. We were very impressed with your
obvious knowledge of the market, which was proven in regard to your accurate
assessment of the expected sale price of several properties in the Coffs Harbour
region. We look forward to a lengthy relationship with your Property Management
department."

"You
managed well two very important things in selling real estate, a
pleasant manner with both vendor and purchasers and just as
important you kept in constant touch with me while you had the
unit for sale. Too often vendors are forgotten once they have
signed up. I think people selling property appreciate more than
anything being kept in touch with the selling agent. If you keep
up the service you are already providing, I am sure your firm will
do very well. I would certainly be happy to recommend you to any
person interested in real estate. Once again, my thanks."

Wave Close, Toormina (SOLD at Auction)
"Over
a period of approximately 10 weeks I have been searching for a
home to purchase and I have been to many agents, some of which
give your profession a bad reputation. However when I was told
of an auction that was going to happen in the near future, I
looked at several that you had listed. I would also like to
say that this was my first experience of buying this way,
being rather nervous and uncertain of the unexpected. It was
at this time I called your office NSW Real Estate and spoke
with you. I would have to say that any person coming to you
for advice, understanding and information could not ask for
more. On AUCTION day, one for me that will be a pleasant
memorable one, nerves took over and then it all happened, not
difficult, not threatened by the large group of people, as you
eased everyone into the auction mode. For me it worked
exceptionally well in my favour, being able to purchase a
property at what I feel was a reasonable price.
Again, I thank you for keeping me informed, your follow ups
and your professionalism; to you and your staff, great work. I
will be telling my
friends about the fabulous attitude of NSW Real Estate, Coffs
Harbour."

(SOLD at Auction)
"Following
your successful handling of the sale of our former property we
looked forward, this year, to NSW Real Estate handling the
sale of these two villa units. We much appreciated your advice
regarding upgrading some aspects of the properties to attract
buyers and add value without requiring us to invest heavily in
the gardens, surrounds and interiors. The assistance your
company provided by posting a virtual tour of the site was an
important factor in attracting potential buyers from beyond
the Coffs area and we were surprised and pleased at the
large turnout at the auction on March 22. The fact what you
were able to encourage bidding well beyond our reserve price
is yet another reason for us to be pleased with allowing your company
and you to handle the sale. It has been a pleasure to deal
with you and your company over the years and we would like to thank
you personally for your interest and support."

"We
would like to thank Grant Larsen of NSW Real Estate for the
very professional way he handled the Auction of our property
at Emerald Beach, Coffs Harbour...providing an honest estimate
of the current market value of the property at time of
listing...the property sold within 1% of Grant's estimate, to
our satisfaction...providing regular updates prior to Auction
on the level of interest in the property. When we were unable
to attend the auction, Grant left his mobile phone switched
on, which allowed us to follow the auction "live"
and thus allowed us to determine the actual level of interest
on the day...Grant approached the task in a thoroughly honest
and professional manner at all times."

Doug and Carolyn Smyth
“I’d like to take this opportunity
to thank you for your assistance with the recent purchase
of my property at Diggers Beach. Given my relative isolation
on the other side of the Pacific, it would have been easy
for this transaction to be less than simple and it was a considerable
pleasure to find that it in fact, was one of the least traumatic
real estate purchases I’ve made. Both you and your staff were
extremely responsive to all my queries and needs.
I would also be remiss if I didn’t note that NSW Real
Estate has one of the most detailed and user friendly Internet
sales and communication sites I’ve ever dealt with. The individual
website that detailed the property I bought was the best I’ve
ever seen and gave a superb and very comprehensive feel for
the home and it’s surroundings – had I been the vendor, I
doubt I could have hoped for better presentation from an internet
website and it’s clear that your company puts a lot of effort
and technology into this element of your business.”

of dealing with Grant Larsen now for a period of approximately

in any of our future real estate transactions. Thank you again!”

with the level of service provided.”
