I was at a crossroads trying to buy a house and really needed some expert guidance. I'd been very impressed by Leigh's website and decided to see what he had to offer. He emailed me almost instantly after I pressed send on my enquiry. He set up a telephone meeting for the next day and I decided after a fifteen minute chat to use Leigh as my buyers advocate. I don't know if he'd appreciate this comment but I felt like I was being taken care of by a kindly rural GP who really listened and genuinely wanted to help. Within a couple of months we'd secured a property that completely surpassed our expectations and Leigh supported us the entire way. His company handled all the paperwork and made it a very easy experience for us. I cannot recommend him highly enough. What we saved in time and energy and on the eventual sale price more than covered his fee. I will definitely being using Leigh and his team in the future.
Leigh was highly effective in securing us a property within budget and in a timely manner. A great and informative professional who took a lot of the stress out of the process. Appreciate all your help!
We worked with Sam Lally and the Buyers Advocate team for over 10 years - from Sam helping us purchase an investment property, the property management team coordinating everything needed for our tenants, to then Sam coordinating the sale of the property over 10 years later - the whole experience was fantastic. Thanks Sam!
