We cannot thank Clare enough for her excellent communication which was open and honest and purposeful at all times, right through to the process of settlement. Clare was always punctual and we appreciated her warm, friendly approach to all aspects of the sale of the property. Her attention to detail and assistance/advice with preparing the property for its marketing, and subsequent home opens was also excellent. Clare told us that she doesn’t sell houses, she sells homes, and that is an important distinction which is evident in her manner. We hope that our buyers felt the same about the transaction. We are really happy we chose Clare to sell our property, and highly recommend her to friends thinking of selling.

From the first moment we felt completely confident that Clare was going to be the best person to sell our house. Clare’s knowledge and very practical approach combined brilliantly with her relaxed and easy going personality. Before committing to go with Clare, we did take the time to speak to other local agents, and while they were completely professional and appropriate, it was Clare’s lines of logic and marketing strategy that we felt most confident with. Clare helped us greatly with suggestions around the marketing of our home, including presentation tips, advertorial opportunities and photography. The web based advertising she produced was impressive and compelling. We had a great outcome, with our home selling after the first home open and for more than our original asking price with a short and well managed negotiation process by Clare. We couldn’t be happier with the level of service we received and needless to say we strongly recommend Clare and Yard Property to anyone selling their home in the area.

Selling the family home of 22 years can be a stressful experience. Having a Real Estate Agent who understands what you are going through made a big difference. In Clare, we found someone we were able to relate to and who showed empathy with our situation. Clare proved to be very friendly and honest, and was responsive to our concerns and requirements with the marketing of our property. Even when buyer interest dropped off in the relatively flat market and the sales process became drawn out and protracted, Clare remained positive and supportive. When we finally managed to sell, Clare was still there to help us celebrate moving on and with downsizing in our new home. We would highly recommend working with Clare if you are thinking of selling.

From my original meeting with Clare right through the sales campaign I found communication with her to be outstanding, everything she said she would do she did , it was such an easy process and a pleasure to be part of. When it came down to the final negotiations, that too was so easy and quick, especially as I was driving my Uber car at that moment. I think it was as the little things Clare did that made a difference, like doing what she said she would and for respecting our request to ask buyers to remove their shoes when venturing upstairs. I only have praise for a great service Yard provided, in particular Clare’s hard work and achieving a higher than expected sales price in the current market. Thanks again, I will definitely be recommending Yard to any of my work contacts, family and friends.
