If I could give 10 stars, I would! Tim was absolutely sensational. I spent ages wondering whether I should use a buyer's agent, and I am so glad I chose Tim. His professionalism was exceptional, and I can't speak highly enough of his communication. He always worked around my busy schedule, and although I'm sure he was incredibly busy himself, he always found a time that suited me for a chat. As a first-time investor, I had no idea where to start. Tim was incredibly patient and went above and beyond every step of the way. He helped me develop a clear brief and, more importantly, kept me focused on it. When I told him I was happy to buy anywhere in Australia, he didn't hesitate. As long as the property met the brief, we were both on the same page. I live in Victoria, but Tim attended inspections on my behalf while keeping me on the phone throughout. It genuinely felt like I was there with him. His knowledge of the local area and the property market gave me complete confidence in ever
Tim made purchasing our first home interstate an incredibly smooth and stress-free experience. From the beginning, he took the time to really understand what we were looking for and what would best suit our needs. He went above and beyond throughout the entire process, was always available to answer our questions, and made us feel supported every step of the way. What could have been an overwhelming experience was made easy thanks to Tim's knowledge, professionalism and genuine care. We couldn't recommend him highly enough!
At the end of last year, Tim secured our third property in Caboolture and once again delivered an outstanding result. This one is a three-bedroom, one-bathroom home with a five-car garage on a 902sqm block. We’re retaining four of the garage spaces for the main residence and adding a granny flat at the rear to maximise return. The property was under contract at $835,000, and Tim negotiated $12,500 off after building and pest. Across Churchill, Deception Bay and now Caboolture, Tim has helped us diversify strategically. The granny flat is complete and both dwellings are rented out for $1,175 per week in total, the property should be cash flow positive. The Bank value has come back at $1,050,000 for only owning it for 3 months. We’ll absolutely be working with Tim again on future projects.
