Look forward to dealing with you again soon

Thank you Eric for selling  my mother's unit. Over our time we have bought and sold many properties through different agents and found our association with you the most positive and memorable due to such professionalism and being prepared to go the extra mile to get the deal through.

We are most appreciative of you keeping us informed of what was happening on a regular basis, something other agents say they will do but they don't.

Your diligence and conscientiousness was greatly appreciated and l have no hesitation in recommending you.

Many thanks and kind regards.

In the lead up to listing our property we met with quite a few agents, but none of them had the right mix of qualities we hoped to find. Within five minutes of meeting Eric we knew he was the agent we were looking for. He possesses all the skills you would hope to find in a real estate agent, and he is also very approachable and a good listener. Through all our dealings with Eric, he was always honest and upfront with us.

The standard of communication was very impressive, we received regular feedback and reports (with analysis) that gave us a clear picture of what was happening with the market and our property. Most importantly, Eric managed to negotiate a reasonable price for our property in a very tough market. I would recommend Eric to anyone considering selling in this area: I've already sent one friend his way.

From the very beginning, when I was meeting with potential agents to manage the sale of my house, Eric was by far the most engaged, informative and responsive agent.

Throughout the entire process Eric has always been very approachable and responsive and has conducted himself with a high degree of professionalism.

Prior to his appointment as my agent, Eric prepared a very comprehensive proposal with great market insights on comparable properties and great ideas for positioning my property, and this standard of service continued throughout the entire process. As I live interstate it was critical that the agent I appointed could manage all aspects of the sale on my behalf - Eric did all of this and more, dealing with property presentation, repairs and lawyers.

Most importantly though, Eric is a great guy to deal with who knows what he is doing - he got me a good price, in a short timeframe with minimum fuss. I can highly recommend Eric

I big thank you to Mick and his team for achieving a great result with the sale of our home in Miami. Your enthusiasm right from the start was so refreshing Mick and you were full of new and innovative ideas. It was a tricky as you had to sell multiple homes to get the deal to come together.

Dear Graham,

I just wanted to say a huge thank you for all your help and hard work with the sale of my home.

I had originally contacted 3 agents to get an understanding of the market and what my property was worth. Although you didn't give me the highest valuation, I was completely at ease with your honesty and warmth.

I am so glad I trusted my instincts and decided to list my property with Realty Blue. Although my home was not one of the bigger places on the coast, I felt that you really had my best interests at heart.  I appreciated the way you walked me through the process of selling, keeping me totally informed along the way. Your professionalism, reassurance, sense of humour, and follow up phone calls gave me confidence that we could sell despite a difficult economy!

I also loved the attention to detail taken with the photographs. Michael did a wonderful job with these. My home looked soo.... good!!

Thanks again for being so positive and allowing me to ask so many questions. You nailed it with your valuation. You really know your market!!

I shall have no hesitation in recommending yourself and Realty Blue.

To whom it may concern,

We used the services of Realty Blue Real Estate Agency as we found Graham Collins and his team very calm, confident and friendly while being very hard working and attentive to the task at hand. They understood our needs & goals, managing to gain a good sale price in a tough market while finding us the exact type of house that suited our family to move into. Their best attribute was that they had an excellent understanding of their local market; they were not pushy and did not feed us the same information every other agency had fed us previously, which gave me the feeling I could trust them and leave them to do their job without my constant supervision.

I would highly recommend them to any potential new customers and will definitely use them in the future.

Sincerely,

When we decided to sell, we asked three agents to come out and give us appraisal on our property.  We had never sold a home before so it was new for us.  Within the first 5 minutes we had decided that Mick was the agent for us. With his polite, confident, approachable manner which was both natural and genuine it was an easy choice. 

It was obvious that Mick had a love of Real Estate.  He displayed an extensive knowledge and understanding on what was happening in the market around the Burleigh/Miami area.  He took the time to look through our property thoroughly and identify what made our property stand out compared to other similar properties on the market. He was very enthusiastic, keeping us up to date with any progress and within a week we had an unconditional contract on our house.  

Mick is a true professional and is in a class of his own. While some Real Estate Agents say they give good service and will work for you, no one could work harder for their clients than Mick Brace and no one could provide better service! The service we received from Mick was second to none.  We could not have asked for a better Real Estate agent to guide us through the process.  We would highly recommend Mick to anyone who is looking to sell or buy.  You won't be disappointed.

I met Mick a couple of times at Open Home inspections and was impressed by his professionalism and general attitude. Mick also has a very likeable personality and is just a nice guy to work with.

He took as much time as he needed in setting up for the photo shoot at my house, waiting for the best evening light and weighing up the best room and house photos to take. The house looked fantastic on the web.

Probably the key most important aspect of listing my property with Realty Blue was their active data base, which Mick was able to draw on immediately. He had two prospective buyers go through the house on the first night. He then completed negotiations with one of them who alternatively became the new owner. I had the Sold sticker in my hand in no time. Good one Mick, well done.

I recommend anyone considering selling their home, to give Mick a call.

Thanks Mick,

Manager Realty Blue

I would like to pass on to your office my 'thanks for a job well done' with the sale of my property. Property Consultant, Graham Collins, demonstrated great professionalism with the minimum of fuss.  I found him to be very approachable and honest during negotiations and discussions. I was really happy with his attitude and patience in his dealings with me and prospective buyers. I'm relieved to say that the sale went through quickly, without any hitches and was a stress free process. Thanks so much Graham and Realty Blue we will certainly recommend you to our friends and would definitely use your expertise again.

To whom it may concern,

My wife and I have bought and sold three homes in the area over the past 5 years through other agents and have been mislead numerous times whereas the properties have been over valued or market conditions were never reported correctly.

Thus our eagerness to deal with somebody that could be recommended to us - this person happened to be Mick Brace whom was recommended to us by a mutual friend and customer whom expressed to us his positive experience in a market that seemed to be flat.

From the positive and genuine attitude shown he set about giving us an appraisal and advice of the market and how he felt we would achieve our price range without over exaggerating which for us was the main reason of listing.

After being listed for a short period of time we had families coming through our home that had been screened - all great candidates, within 5 weeks we had a solid offer and within days all parties came together to do the deal - maybe lucky!  We just saw it as hard work on his behalf.

We truly could not fault Mick the person or Realty Blue the agency as we always received a positive and genuine attitude every time we conversed or met.

We in turn have recommended others to Mick as he himself is the best form of advertising.

We just wanted to say thanks for everything Mick. It was so lovely to have a Real Estate Agent who was not like a used car Salesman. You were like a friend selling our house, you took the time to listen to us and talked openly and genuinely to us about the value of our house in the current market and ended up getting the price we wanted in only 10 days. Will enjoy watching you take over the GC - Realty Blue - the best real estate Agent for you!

Many thanks again.

We first met Mick from Realty Blue when we attended an open home he was hosting. His approach to us as potential buyers was just right not intrusive or intimidating but respectful and relaxed.

That initial contact was why, two years later, he was the first agent we rang to interview in regards to the sale of our home.

Aside from his approachable nature, we admired the fact he had the confidence to back himself and start his own business. Just ask him how he got started his story shows his confidence, determination and most importantly persistence, and in a real estate market when buyers just don’t fall into your lap, these qualities are essential.

The final reason we went with Mick was because he was practically a neighbour living in the same neighbourhood meant he could genuinely explain to buyers the absolute joy of living in the area.

Mick was great to deal with. He had the confidence to name a price; he was always positive, he never made excuses or wavered from the goal we set, and he was a nice bloke to talk to in general!

We had a contract in 30 days, and highly recommend you talk to Mick if you're thinking of selling.

 I had my home listed with another agent for some time with no result so I decided to call Mick from Realty Blue to see what he could do. To my surprise he had it sold within days of listing it and for just off the asking price. Mick was terrific and very efficient; the buyer came from his database so within hours of taking the photos and putting up the sign I had potential buyers coming through for inspections. It was amazing to see him in action and I have already recommended him to family & friends to help in selling their homes.

Thanks again Mick for all your hard word and professionalism. It was amazing to see the contrast in your style of selling and I am so happy with price you achieved for me. I wish you all the very best and I am sure you will do well in the future.

I can't speak highly enough of Mick and his team at Realty Blue, his upfront positive attitude turned a very quiet market into a great sale for our property in a short time frame. He is a great communicator and extremely professional. He is more than you expect from a real estate agent with a new cutting edge that sets him miles ahead of his competitors.  There is a reason that Realty Blue signs are popping up everywhere! He is a genuinely nice family man, you will not be disappointed with Mick and Realty Blue.

My property had been previously listed with another agent for approx 6 months & there had only been 1 inspection with this agent. The listing had run out with the previous agent when I was approached by Mick asking if he could take some prospective clients through my property which I agreed to. After chatting to Mick I decided to give the listing to him to see if he was the professional, passionate person he appeared to be.

After having many dealings with real estate agents over the past few years, I was very sceptical about all that he professed he could & would do, but because I felt very comfortable with him & his professionalism I decide I would give him a go. I was not disappointed with him. He impressed me with the way he approached the sale of my property, in a very different way to all other agents I have ever dealt with.

He is very passionate man about his business, whilst still keeping in mind the importance of what I wanted to achieve. He has a very modern innovative approach to what he does & approaches it in a very professional manner. He makes you feel that he is working for you to achieve the result you want & not simply because there is commission in it for him at the end of the sale.

The property was listed at the end of June 2010 & was sold & settled in August 2010. (WOW). Thank you Mick for restoring my faith in real estate agents. It has been an absolute pleasure to do business with you. You will be the first person I call when I am ready to purchase another property. I will not hesitate to recommend you to any of my friends & family.

Having been involved in Sales and Marketing for the last twenty years, I naturally find myself judging sales people on their abilities and most importantly, their people skills.

My wife and I first met Mick while attending various open homes in Miami. We both noticed that Mick had a completely different approach to the other Real Estate Agents that we had encountered in the past. Mick was truly genuine to talk to, passionate about his business and at no time pre-judged people attending the open homes. This was a breath of fresh air.

Recently, we lost my Aunt to cancer and as a family, felt that we would put her house on the market. This was a very emotional time for my Mother and all the family. My Mother was very concerned about having Real Estate Sales people through my Aunts home and having descriptions like 'Deceased Estate' as a marketing ploy. I suggested to Mum that we should talk to Mick on how we should go about this very important decision.

We had a meeting with Mick on the Thursday, and my Mother immediately warmed to him.  After the meeting, my Mother described Mick as a very caring and understanding human being. She also went on to say that she felt that Mick was truly on our side and was not just after another commission.

By the following Sunday afternoon, Mick already had motivated buyers and contracts were signed that week.

The whole process was unbelievable, especially considering that the price was more than we expected.

I can honestly say that I would only use Realty Blue for any real estate dealings in the future.

Mick, I am not at all surprised that your signs are everywhere in Miami !!!!!

Thanks Mick and the team at Realty Blue for all your hard work on the sale of our townhouse. We have lived there for quite some time and were nervous about who we chose to sell our home. You were confident, professional and had a really down to earth attitude. We said to you at the beginning that you will need to perform and achieve what you said you could do for us and you did just that. You went over and above for us throughout the process and we couldn't be happier with the result. You kept us informed at every stage of the sale and with getting multiple offers and a great enquiry we were extremely happy with the price achieved.

Well done and we wish you all the very best for the future.
