Review for Duncan Gordon

I chose Duncan Gordon at Raine and Horne because he had sold several properties in Wilson Street, Darlington recently. The attention he gave to my property sale was fantastic, and he always kept in touch and gave me excellent feedback after each Open for Inspection.

The marketing program was well designed, and the ultimate auction was well attended and bidding was vigorous. An excellent auctioneer was chosen.

I would highly recommend Duncan Gordon and was extremely happy with all aspects of the campaign.

Kellie said:
Experience, hard work and integrity

Duncan's integrity, sensitivity and guidance throughout the sale of my deceased father's estate was second to none. His team's attention to detail along with fast and efficient communication was fantastic and helped make this process seamless. Duncan was with us every step of the way and made us feel like we were his only clients (which I know was certainly not the case!) He helped achieve a fantastic price at auction which I feel was due to his hard work and communication with both me as the vendor and the potential buyer. I would not hesitate to recommend Duncan and Raine and Horne, Newtown. Thank you so much.

Jane said:
Friendly and astute

Duncan Gordon has now sold 2 properties for me and achieved results well above expectations. Duncan has a warm friendly manner, quietly spoken and thoughtful. I would highly recommend him as an agent

Michael (Vendor) said:
Result that exceeded expectation

Duncan (and Michael) were positive, informative and helpful from our first meeting. He assisted with advice on preparing our house for sale and was responsive to us throughout the sales campaign. He was upfront and open with his opinion and advice and never set unrealistic expectations. He worked to get interested parties to our auction and we got a great sale as an outcome.

Tim & Ray (Vendor) said:
Go with the best!

Duncan’s many years of real estate experience and attention to detail provided us a better than expected outcome for the sale of our property.

We have no hesitation whatsoever in recommending Duncan Gordon at Raine & Horne Newtown to any prospective property vendor.

Thanks Duncan!

Daniel (Vendor) said:
Thanks! Raine and Horne Newtown

The choice to engage Raine and Horne for the sale of our Newtown property was an easy decision as Duncan Gordon and his team have exceptional knowledge of the local market.

We were completely satisfied with the professionalism, attention to detail and organizational skills which ultimately resulted in a successful auction result.

We would have no hesitation in recommending Duncan Gordon at Raine and Horne Newtown.

Garry and Pam Cleghorn - Vendors said:
He was attentive to all our inquiries throughout the whole process of selling our home.

Michael was fully professional especially given the problems created by COVID-19. We originally intended to sell mid 2020, but realized the pandemic would caused major issues with arranging the property for sale and having people view it. He was understanding of our concerns and kept us advised as to when it would be appropriate to try again. He was timely in his responses and gave sound advice without applying undue pressure. Through his actions the house looked splendid before the sale, and although it was passed in at auction Michael worked tirelessly to find us a buyer for a good price and in a timely manner. We are very grateful for all his hard work, and that of his team.

Josh Daly - Vendor said:
Successful, efficient sale with a friendly approach

Michael guided me through my sale from the start. Great communication, advice and assistance in getting the property to market, and getting a great offer prior to auction!

Yi Wang - Vendor said:
Good experience with Michael

Michael was extremely helpful, knowledgeable and responsive as our listing agent. His professionalism, expertise and excellent interpersonal skills work synergistically to make him a wonderful representative for anyone attempting to purchase or sell a home.

Although we did not achieve the initial promised price, we appreciate how much effort Michael had put into our property.

Anne-Louise Luccarini - Vendor said:
Intuitive professionalism

From his first inspection of my property, I had complete confidence in Michael Harris's understanding of market trends, even in a volatile time. He kept me up to date promptly, and was always personally available when needed. The efficiency of his staff, friendly and alert, testifies to the quality of his management. He was my agent in the literal sense of the word: he acted for me. My trust in his judgement was not misplaced.

Shane Scaltrito - Vendor said:

Best agent we have ever had!!

Michael's depth of knowledge of the local area and the current market was exemplary. He gave us confidence from our initial meeting, clearly outlining the process that his team would be following and the most suitable timeline to achieve a successful sale. He kept us informed at every step and achieved an outcome that exceeded our expectations. His very capable assistant Vivienne Rockell also helped us, ensuring everything was styled to perfection for the presentation of the unit.

Jane Oakeshott and Peter Renehan – 103 Wilson Street, Newtown said:
Excellent local knowledge and professional expertise

We have bought and sold with Michael on 3 occasions in the local area, and each time has been a really positive experience!

Job well done..

I would like to take this opportunity to thank Michael for the excellent job you and your team did in the preparing and handling the sale of my property in Enmore and achieving a price well on par with what was expected.

Selling a property can be stressful yet from beginning you made me at ease, kept me thoroughly informed of the processes and progress of the sale. The professionalism and frankness you gave to me was greatly appreciated and made the whole selling experience an easy task.

Thank you again for your professional approach to the task and I would strongly recommend you to any future customer seeking your services.

Michael Harris..

Having dealt with Michael previously, we know him to be thorough, professional and extremely well versed in respect to the inner west property market.

His support team reflects the same degree of professionalism with excellent communication and attention to detail to make the seller feel confident that they're in good hands.

I would have no hesitation in recommending Michael to any potential seller.

Ben Grant & Rosemary Blight - 14 Egan Street, Newtown said:
Local knowledge goes a long way!

Michael lives in the Inner West and knows both the market and the people. He helped us tailor a credible sales strategy.

Bruce Hammond said:
Happy Vendor thanks to Duncan Gordon!

Recently I listed a property to be sold through Raine&Horne, Newtown with Duncan Gordon as the agent. Through the whole process, I was extremely impressed with Duncan's professionalism, knowledge of the market and what needed to be done to achieve the best outcome. His advice to me in preparing the property for sale was invaluable. His regular communication kept me informed without being stressful. The sale price obtained by him was above our expectation. I have no hesitation in recommending Duncan to any prospective vendor.

Teresa Sartor said:
Demonstrated a skilled and professional service.

Duncan has demonstrated a skilled and professional service in the sale of my property. Recently I made a decision to place my Newtown house on the Market. I met with Duncan and discussed the issues and market outcomes given the current environment. He was informative and provided a good appraisal on the value of the property. With the decision made, the property went on the market and was prepared for sale within a short period. Duncan was helpful in providing regular updates on the interest shown and assisted with all aspects of the sale. I was more than satisfied with the outcome. I recommend Duncan's professionalism to anyone wanting to sell their property.

The entire campaign went incredibly smoothly culminating in a fantastic result!

It’s with pleasure, I write this review for Michael Wyatt of R & H Newtown. Michael and the R & H team facilitated the sale of our property at 22 Whitehorse Street. The entire campaign went incredibly smoothly culminating in a fantastic result, well above expectations. We have absolutely no hesitation in recommending R & H Newtown and Michael Wyatt to future vendors. Daniel and Abby, vendors of 22 Whitehorse St. Newtown

Terlya Hunt said:
Awesome experience across the board.

Duncan at Raine & Horne Newtown helped me buy my first home. Almost 2 years down the track I returned to them to help me rent out my home because of the amazing experience I had in purchasing my home. Adam was incredibly helpful in the rental process. Huge kudos to the Raine & Horne Newtown team for providing such an awesome experience across the board. Would highly recommend the team.

Claudia Scheibe said:
Absolutely Incredible!

My husband and I put our house on the market in optimum conditions back in February 2020. It was all going along swimmingly until we were blindsided by a pandemic! You can imagine the disheartening time that followed leading up to a total fizzer of an online auction. Here's the thing though. Our agent Duncan Gordon stayed calm and positive, kept us calm and put our house up for sale. People immediately expressed interest again and Duncan began tirelessly negotiating on our behalf. He constantly set up viewings with clients on a 1:1 basis, spoke with us every day, followed up every possible lead, working for us long after he should have clocked off and gone home. Duncan is the loveliest, most patient and cheerful real estate agent I have ever met. He was indefatigable on our behalf and consequently our property sold in this strange and unpredictable climate for a price we were very happy with. I strongly recommend Duncan Gordon as the agent to sell your house. He's your man for sure. Thankyou Duncan!

Willie Hantz Riggs said:
High recommend!

I mostly want to give my praise to an agent Bruna Romano. She went above and beyond anything I could have asked for considering my current situation. I haven't ever dealt with an agent that was attentive as Bruna. Please if you are looking at renting or buy please I highly recommend Bruna.

William Christophy said:
I turned to a true professional to help me sell my property!

During a time of confusion as to where the property market would be heading and unsure the true value of my property, also facing tough competition with larger properties for sale in the same street, I turned to a true professional to help me sell my property .

Through hard work, extensive research and sheer professionalism, Duncan Gordon maintained my property's profile with potential buyers and kept me informed of the process on a daily basis.

He successfully sold my property in a short time for a price that I would not have believed would be achievable.

Millie Cooper said:
Fabulous!

Adam + the team at Raine & Horne are so fabulous. They rented my apartment out within 2 weeks during COVID which is one of the hardest times to rent. Thank you, thank you!

Luke Blair said:
Cool, calm and collective

Duncan ran a transparent sales campaign, he always kept us informed, up to date and reassured throughout the process. He had extensive knowledge of the area and comparable sales recently which allowed him to advise us where we sit in the scheme of things. I would not think twice in engaging his services to sell any other properties of mine in the future.

Clarissa Tai said:
A true professional. Duncan informs, is a delight to deal with and delivers results!

Duncan is a true professional who is both friendly and pleasant to deal with. We reached out to Duncan when we were thinking about putting our property on the market and he provided us with as much information as possible prior to selling and brought in a team to advise on presenting the property in the best light possible. From the get-go, Duncan was open and transparent, communicating and updating us, his vendors, with specific information and observations (both positive and not so positive) and answering all our questions. In addition, he was also very responsive to potential buyers' questions and needs. We are very pleased with the service and delighted with the result!

I'd strongly recommend Duncan to both buyers and sellers!

I'd strongly recommend Duncan to both buyers and sellers as he is diligent, honest and an excellent communicator. Duncan was knowledgeable on the area and the intricate details of the property and provided confidence and assurance that I was getting what I wanted as a buyer. The team at Raine and Horne Newtown were very quick and thorough in their responses to dozens of questions and issues.

Patrick Taylor said:
Achieved a very quick result.

We couldn't be happier with the service provided by R&H Newtown in renting out our property. Adam was extremely professional and helpful in answering all of my questions. He also provided me with timely updates throughout the process of leasing out our property and achieved a very quick result.

Brilliant job

Duncan Gordon did a brilliant job of selling my home at 91 George St, Erskineville earlier in the year. It was an “off market” sale and Duncan was great at talking to potential buyers from other properties and bringing them through my house. Duncan was very transparent and kept me very well informed of the status of activity with potential buyers right through to the exchange of contracts. I can thoroughly recommend Duncan.

Regular communications kept us informed of the interest being shown, enabling us to monitor the progress, having confidence that our criteria and target price were realistic. Thanks Duncan and the Team.

Very thorough, experiences and professional

Duncan has many years of experience and worked diligently on my behalf to personally follow up interested parties and provide me with both verbal and written updates on the status of the sale. As the property market slows I would recommend Duncan as a real estate agent that will persist on your behalf to close the sale.

Catherine - Purchaser said:
Great Agent, would recommend

As a buyer, it's been a very difficult and slow process finding and buying a house we loved. Duncan was genuine and easy to deal with every step of the way, despite being the vendor's agent. I'd use him to sell when we are ready!

Peter - 410 Wilson Street, Darlington NSW 2008 said:

Excellent Agent! Wouldn’t use anyone else

Duncan is a first class agent! Highly professional, responsive, easy to deal with and knows the market, constant communication all the way and a man of his word, whatever he said he delivered.

Not to mention, most importantly, working with Duncan is a fantastic supportive team all working hard, their communication and support was exceptional, thanks Monica and Vivienne!! The smoothest sale process. In a challenging market Duncan secured a great result for us, he is the agent you want on your side! Definitely the best agent I have dealt with in last 25 years.

Friendly and Professional

I have just exchanged contracts to purchase a Newtown property through Michael. Throughout the inspection, enquiry and negotiation phases Michael was friendly, engaging, helpful and professional. A pleasure to deal with.

Muriel - 5 Copeland Avenue, Newtown said:
Fantastic Agent and Team!

Michael and his team have been wonderful in securing a sale for my home in a challenging market. Through every step of the process, from organizing tradespeople to prepare the house for sale until contracts were exchanged, they always acted with diligence, attention to detail, utmost professionalism and respect. Michael clearly knows the Newtown market but above all I think it’s his people skills that make him an exceptional agent.

Essie - 72 Wells Street, Newtown said:
Mission Accomplished

I found Matthew and Michael Harris to be extremely helpful in all ways eg communication, email liaison and honest throughout the entire process. It was nice to have experienced friendly, helpful and thorough sales agents acting on behalf at all times.

In short I felt totally safe in their hands throughout the entire exercise.

My sales was not just about the very best price in the market as there were other factors that also needed to be considered for me to make my next move and it was apparent that both Matthew and Michael listened to me re these concerns.

Julia & Emil - 516/13 Bayswater Road, POTTS POINT said:
Best Agency Experience

Loredana - It is with a heavy heart we are leaving! Not only did we love the apartment, but we have also been very grateful for Raine&Horne as an agency. Julia and I agree that it is our best agency experience to date - so thank you.

Sally - 24/177 Salisbury Road, Camperdown said:
A considerate and informed agent in a difficult market for vendors

Michael was always professional and personable, keeping me informed at every step of the way on how things were going with inspections, potential buyers' responses and comments.

Both Michael and Melissa were excellent communicators with a responsible approach to keeping me as the client informed, and providing helpful guidance when required.

In this very difficult market - for vendors - it was good to know I had the best possible team working with me.

I would recommend Michael and the team to anyone wanting to sell.

Jacqui Merriel said:
10/10 customer service

Gerard went above and beyond late on a Monday night when we called him in a last ditch attempt to find a solution for an alarm ringing for hours in an empty terrace next door to us for lease by Raine and Horne.

Gerard not only answered my desperate call at 10:30pm but even hopped in the car to come and find a solution. 10/10 customer service, going above and beyond for someone who isn't even a customer!

Peter - 1/7-9 Pemell Lane, Newtown NSW 2042 said:
Painless sale handled by true, friendly professionals

I am so glad I selected Michael Harris to handle the sale of this property. He was not pushy and had the kind of personality I knew would appeal to potential buyers.

He was thoroughly professional, lived in the area, understood the market and knew how best to present the property. He kept me informed every step of the way and managed (and exceeded) ALL my expectations. His advice was extremely important to me.

His colleague, Melissa Grose, personally managed the tasks of cleaning, refurbishment and presentation of the property. She helped me contain presentation costs and kept me informed as each trade completed its work. I have great respect for Michael and Melissa and have no hesitation in recommending them to vendors and buyers.

A great experience in customer service!
