We had a lot of agents value our home but Louise managed to achieve a stunning record price that was well above what any of them predicted.
At every step of the way, Louise was absolutely lovely to deal with and always thoughtful and considered. She gave us her full attention and we always knew we were in extremely capable hands.
Thanks to Louise’s tireless, hard work we were deluged with extremely high offers within days. Another agent might have been tempted to make a quick and easy sale - but not Louise. She continued to work around the clock and, in the end, got a staggering result. She sold our apartment for what must surely be a record price for Bondi. Certainly it was way above what we had ever dreamed we could achieve.
Louise ran an extremely effective marketing campaign that was beautifully tailored to our needs. She even managed to get us editorial copy in a major newspaper which greatly assisted the campaign.
Louise is a highly professional, very personable, intelligent and astute agent who will give everything she’s got into selling your property for a premium price. Her skill as a negotiator is phenomenal and she is always on top of every detail. She pours her heart and soul into getting the best price possible. She’s down to earth, experienced and extremely skilled.
I could go on, but the results speak for themselves. She sold our flat for an unprecedented amount and was absolutely wonderful to work with.
I really can’t recommend her highly enough and I will always sell all my property through her.

Dear Doreen and Morgan,
I can't thank you enough for all of your help in selling my home for me.
Not only did you secure a fantastic price for it - a whopping $40,000 more than the identical apartment that sold downstairs just a few months before by Ray White.......but you really did go above and beyond your role as real estate agents by literally packing up my apartment for me in a day when my purchaser withdrew his rent back offer to me at the 11th hour......and I had to get out of the apartment within 24 hours or face severe financial penalty!
Your professionalism, hands-on and honest approach in preparing the home for sale, the actual auction campaign and your skill at squeezing every last cent out of the buyers at the auction were outstanding. I am a true advocate of your services and will most definitely refer you to anybody that is looking for great real estate agents.
I sincerely wish you all the best with your future sales and careers.
Kindest Regards

I wanted to say a big thank you to Louise for selling our apartment on Glenmore Road Paddington.
Her vast knowledge and personal relationships with buyers in the area meant that we sold our apartment after only two open inspections for a price we were very happy with.
Not only was the price better than we had hoped but she saved us money by identifying the potential buyers and targeting them specifically without needing an expensive broad marketing campaign. And even more importantly it was all done in a friendly and genuine manner.
Louise Snowden has personally set the price for art deco apartments in Paddington, she is certainly the queen of Glenmore Rd! Louise is by far the first choice for selling your Paddington property.
Thanks for everything Louise!
"Dear Louise
Jackie & I would like to express our sincere thanks for your advice, enthusiasm and persistence on the sale of 8/2 Renny Lane Paddington.
From choosing the right marketing campaign to gaining some complimentary editorial pieces, we believe that the fantastic result was achieved as a consequence of your high energy level and passion for sales success.
To have achieved the highest sales result for 2 Renny Lane is a testament to your determination to succeed.
Thank you, thank you, thank you!

"Let me tell you about the amazing woman who helped me resolve what was, for me, an awful situation in terms of real estate involving two cities, two countries and a stretch of ocean in between.
I had a wonderful apartment in Woollahra. I loved it to bits. I bought it when I was regaining my independence after a tumultuous time in my life and had some wonderful times there. When an opportunity came to move overseas, I wept when I had to say goodbye to my home because it was such a part of me.
My situation changed and I had to sell. What to do when I’m 2000 kilometres away from this precious jewel of an apartment? I was living in New Zealand and was unsure of what the market was like in Australia. To make matters worse, I had never sold a property before.
By great fortune I was referred to Louise Snowden by a very good friend. Louise was understanding and greeted me by saying how much she loved my apartment. Quickly we built a rapport and soon I was completely confident that she was the right person.
I had so many questions. But Louise was ever-patient and her expert knowledge of the area reassured me that this was going to be an easier process than I had thought.
She designed a terrific marketing campaign. After only two open days it was sold at a price that surprised and delighted me since it was actually above what I asked…Louise kept me informed every step of the way. She was amazing!
This could never have happened without Louise. What seemed to me at first to be such a daunting challenge proved to be an inspiring and enlightening experience. None of this could have happened without Louise.
So, I would highly recommend her to anyone is even thinking about selling their property in the Eastern Suburbs.
Fiona Tansley"
"Louise Snowden was the right choice of agent when selling our Aunt's unit in Woollahra. On an industry built on relationships I would guess that Louise gets a lot of return clients as she is willing to go the distance - and beyond. At every turn she offered that bit extra that made her more than just the agent selling the property - it was more like a partnership in doing what was best for the vendor AND the purchaser to achieve a mutually beneficial outcome. We're extremely happy with what she has achieved for the family.

Dear Sir/ Madam,
Commendation - Doreen Wilson and Morgan Carr
The purpose of this letter is to formally and publicly commend Doreen Wilson and Morgan Carrbuyers to want to deal with that person. I find Doreen case I was so impressed by the support and service provided, that I felt compelled to go on record with my praise. Below are some of the examples of how they are able to go the extra mile:
1. Flexible in approach; during the initial marketing strategy formulation, they were flexible in terms of working out with me what is the best market approach. I find this process very helpful and made my decision in choosing them as my agents much easier.
2. A good negotiator and successful rainmaker; if you need someone who can negotiate on your behalf, Doreen is THE rainmaker. Not only was she able to exceed the price we wanted, she was able to close the deal within ONE week of the first opening. Truly remarkable!
3. Personable and good to work with; because you are hiring someone to represent you in the market, it is important for the and Morgan to be very personable and easy to work with. They are both friendly and honest, and exude genuine warmth. It is extremely rare to find agents who can give you that sort of comfort on the first meeting.
In closing, I believe that Doreen and Morgan deserve to be congratulated and rewarded for providing customer service and support well beyond the expectations. Me and my family sincerely thank them and wish them all the best!
Yours sincerely,

Dear Di Jones.
We met you at the birthday party for our mutual friend, Glen-Marie Frost at the home of Marcia Resch. It is for this reason that my wife and I approach you in a familiar manner but on a matter related to Di Jones Realty.

This letter is to offer a heartfelt appreciation to Di Jones Realty for excellence above and beyond the call of duty, particularly by way of your Property Manager, Yvonne Buckley.

We wanted to pen you a quick note thanking Doreen Wilson & Morgan Carr for their fantastic effort in the recent sale of our property - what a team, Doreen & Morgan were referred to us by family members that had used these two professional real estate agents to sell their property, then used their extensive knowledge to re-enter the property market.
We presented Doreen and Morgan with the difficult task of selling our recently strata divided family home, with a unique garden unit, that was difficult to evaluate.
Doreen and Morgan embraced the challenge and explained to us, in a language that we understood the extensive process in selling such a unique property.
Their down to earth approach plus their commitment to get a result impressed us right up until the ever-nervous auction night. On the evening the whole Di Jones team was on hand to support the properties for sale - which ultimately showed the Di Jones difference.
The total commitment from both Doreen and Morgan resulted in an above expected sales result, which we were obviously extremely happy with.
We would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Doreen and Morgan to any of our family or friends in the future. If you are thinking about selling your property you really should contact Doreen or Morgan to have a chat.

"From the beginning to the end of the sale process, we found Di and Courtney helpful, clear and confident. We had confidence that they thoroughly understood the target market and were able to offer excellent advice on the best way to sell our property. With the sale being completed at an excellent price in less than two weeks from the first viewing, their words of assurance were vindicated by the execution of the sale.

"Di Grundy sold my house in the early stages of the Global Financial Crisis which occurred just after launching our Advertising Campaign, her enthusiasm, energy and support during this period were undaunted and highly reassuring. We proceeded to Auction, were passed in on a Vendor bid, then Di negotiated intensely with the bidders and executed the sale that night at a price that both the buyer and I were extremely happy with. Di's integrity, professionalism and negotiating skills achieved a wonderful result in such a negative market. On a personal level Di and Courtney's calming support and attention to detail made selling our house a very pleasant experience which my family and I are very grateful for and we look forward to working with them again."

I write to you today to offer my positive feedback on an employee of yours, Tim Air.
I have recently undertaken the daunting of task of renting out my apartment (tenants went in on Saturday) and I have used Tim and your agency to facilitate this.
I witnessed first hand during this time the dedication and professionalism that Tim’s brings to the table, I was keen for him to handle the renting of my apartment. And now I want to feed back to you that the service that Tim has provided has been first class.
Throughout the whole process he has been open and honest with information, progress and feedback, and I believe he has been instrumental in ensuring that, what could have been a painful process due to strict timeframes that we were working to, the process has been painless and smooth. What I have been particularly impressed with has been Tim’s dedication in finding ‘suitable’ tenants, and not just putting the first people that came through the door into my property.
I wanted to convey this back to you, along with the general feedback that he has flown the flag for Di Jones high, and that because of his efforts, I will have no hesitation in recommending your company to those looking to utilise an estate agents services.
""We could go on and on singing your praise but in the end we can only say to anyone buying or selling property in the area - don''t consider any other Real Estate Agent - Louise is the best we have ever dealt with"
John & Jocelyn Kemp"
""Real Estate Agents have the reputation for being a little abrasive, Louise was always so genuinely sincere we came to trust her and rely on her expertise. She made a nerve-wracking experience a lot easier and we''d both like to thank her very much - she is a terrific agent"
Sue Middleton & Louise Morley"
""Louise showed our house literally day and night, she had "stacks" of buyers for homes in our area and in our price range. Even when we knew we had a buyer, Louise continued to show the house until the contract was signed and dated. My Husband and I cannot write enough good things about Louise Snowden"

""The price you obtained considerably exceeded our most optimistic expectations and the result was achieved remarkably quickly and discreetly"

"Brian and I wanted to thank you for your professional work in selling of our flat at 1/92 Birriga Road. You achieved the maximum price you quoted us in your initial consultation and were courteous, thorough, professional and well informed throughout the whole process.
We initially engaged your services after meeting with three agents and you were the only one who took into account the needs of our family by recognising we had limited time and were working full time with a toddler. You answered all our questions succinctly when we met and followed up by email so that we had time to consider all our options. You were not pushy and were well informed about a changing real estate market.
You were friendly and open about your process and the feedback you were receiving from buyers and all the while you also paid attention to the finer details of the sales process.
Our flat was a company title property and you helped de-mystify this to buyers and achieve a very good price, all within the 6 week time frame that you had given us in your initial sales and marketing plan.
Thanks again Victoria, and we would recommend you to anyone looking to sell property in the Eastern Suburbs.
Regards,
Johanna Hough and Brian White."
"Dear Victoria,
We wanted to write and thank you for your efforts representing us in the sale of our property at Clovelly. We were never in doubt as to your tenacity in presenting and marketing the property, and following up possible buyers.
Your communication with us was always clear and eloquent whether verbal or written. Your diplomacy in dealing with neighbours and tenants at the units always made the process comfortable.
We have no hesitation in recommending you and the Di Jones organization in marketing property especially in what is turning out to be a very difficult environment.
Thanks Again
Philip & David Muscatello"
"Hey Victoria,
We would like to thank you for all your hard work and the numbers of prospects you have shown through is evidence of that. I am happy to recommend your service as I have found you very professional in all aspects of acting as our agent.
Once again, Thanks Victoria and wish you all the best for ''08.
Regards,
James Lagudi"
"Dear Victoria
I just wanted to thank you for what was a fantastic result. I achieved the price I wanted and I think the buyers got a good deal too. The price certainly leaves some room for doing improvements without over-capitalising (at least in my layman’s view.)
Well done to you and the whole Di Jones team. It was a professional effort from start to finish and got the desired result. I’ve not done a lot of property transactions, but I have done some and Di Jones is by far the best, most attentive, most professional team I have worked with.
My sincerest thanks,
Ian Perkin"
"Dear Victoria,
I cannot thank you enough for your assistance in selling our properties. It’s not often I get the opportunity to be this appreciative. You not only sold three properties quickly….(within 3 weeks), honestly and without fuss, you were always communicating with me where necessary and provided me with absolute up to date interaction between myself and potential purchasers. You made a very stressful situation simple, efficient and cost effective!
Thank you, Victoria for a very pleasant real estate experience.
Regards,
Richard Ferry"
"Dear Mrs Jones,
Ossay and I just wanted to take a quick moment to thank your team member Victoria Morish for her outstanding attitude and customer service. On what is usually quite a stressful transaction, we knew we could always count on her.
You must take great comfort in knowing you have such a capable salesperson in your team.
Kind Regards

"TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN
I have dealt with a lot of real estate agents in Sydney over the years and Louise Snowden is simply the best around.
She is smart, totally professional and a terrific negotiator. Louise listed my property in record time and sold it in 2 weeks for a price I had thought possible only in my wildest dreams. She worked fast and effectively to get the best deal for me when she easily could have persuaded me to accept something less.
The whole experience of selling my property was easy and straightforward with Louise handling it for me.
I wouldn't sell another property through anyone else."
""
"I am writing to recommend Mr John Anderson to you.
From our very first meeting John was professional, friendly and efficient. In our particular situation, we had a property listed with another agent for some time without success. We were frustrated and concerned about the sale of the property and keen to sell quickly.
John understood our concerns and responded immediately with a plan that he specifically designed to work for us. Having been disappointed by our previous agent, we were a little cautious and anxious about starting again with another sales agent. John''s friendly and honest approach and his capacity to empathise with us immediately made us feel more confident. We were able to hand over the project to John and rely on him to make the sale.
John''s regular communication with us kept us up to date on a daily basis. He also made himself accessible to us after hours which felt very reassuring, particularly as negotiations came to a close.
Most importantly, from beginning to end we felt confident that John would indeed sell our property, despite the declining market. He was honest and realistic with us about the market value of the property and the best strategies to progress the sale. His capacity to understand people and behaviours meant that he was able to give us a very good indication as to whether a buyer was genuine and what their concerns might be. This enabled him to communicate effectively with both sides in order to finalise the sale.
It has been a delight to work with John and we have no hesitation whatsoever in recommending him to you as a sales agent.
Yours sincerely,
Jackie Braw & Jennifer Cantori"
"Dear Victoria
I am writing to extend my sincere gratitude and appreciation for your outstanding efforts in handling the sale our penthouse property in ‘Whites’ at 357 Glenmore Road, Paddington. Not only did you achieve an exceptional result, but the way in which you and the Di Jones team handled the sale surpassed all our expectations.
Due to the uniqueness of the property I knew we needed the best in the business to secure the sale and your professionalism, courtesy and constant communication were greatly appreciated. I was also extremely impressed with the marketing campaign, the smooth running of the campaign and the professionalism of the auction itself.
I was thrilled with the outcome as well your hard work and dedication. I would highly recommend you to anyone seeking a superior level of service.
Congratulations on a well-earned success!
Warm regards
Di Hill"
"TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN
"Integrity, honesty, sincerity and trustworthiness are essential values which I look for in a person before embarking on a journey; be it personal or business related. I embarked on an exhilarating journey in the week leading up to Christmas with an amazing and amiable woman; Victoria Morish. From the onset of the engagement Victoria was totally focused on meeting the needs of all the stakeholders, ensuring each person walked away with a sense of a good deal. The entire journey facilitated by Victoria was smooth and effortless and I have no hesitation in recommending her for your real estate needs. Thanks to the help and support of Victoria I am now a proud owner of a Terrace in eastern suburbs.

"Hi Victoria
Just a quick note to thank you for the professional way in which you recently marketed my property at 19/242 Campbell Pde Bondi Beach. After the previous agent sent me an email saying he could not get on with my tenant and could not sell the property after having it for approximately 5 months, your approach was a breath of fresh air. You took time to listen to the tenant''s concerns and gained his trust which led to him consenting to you showing the apartment to clients in his absence. There is no way he would have allowed this with the previous agent.
The fact that it only took a couple of weeks to secure a sale is testament to the methods you employ and I would have no hesitation in recommending anyone selling a property in your area to come and see you. Thank you again and good luck for the future.
David Roberts"
"To Whom It May Concern
I have known Victoria Morish for a number of years and my first impression of her was one of an open, friendly person, who is approachable, enthusiastic, honest and totally professional.
I entrusted Victoria with an investment property in Bondi Beach, which she sold in the first week of marketing and I was thrilled with how professional and stress-free the whole transaction was conducted and as a result of her hard work, the price achieved exceeded all expectations.
I have every confidence in Victoria’s ability concerning the real estate market and have no hesitation in recommending her to anyone thinking of selling their home or investment property.
If you wish to speak to me, please feel free to ring me.

"Di Grundy and her team at Di Jones Real Estate at Woollahra recently conducted the sale of our home at ‘Manar’ at Potts Point. Di’s conduct of the sales and marketing campaign was exemplified by a prompt responsiveness and proactive approach by both her and her team which resulted in an excellent sales outcome for us.
Di’s approach was most strategic and highly focused with an emphasis on thoroughness and exhaustive canvassing of potential buyers, which resulted in a sale being achieved within a comparatively short period of time, thus limiting the stress and inconvenience intrinsic to the sales process.
I would have no hesitation in recommending Di Grundy to handle a sales transaction given her proven professionalism, integrity, sharp focus and determination to achieve the client’s desired outcome.
Given Di’s excellent management of the sales campaign, we would not hesitate in enlisting her assistance again in the future."
"On behalf of my family, I wanted to pass on our sincerest appreciation for the professional manner in which you marketed our mother’s property “Prudhoe” in Darling Point.
At all times, you exceeded our expectations; from your initial advice, to a campaign that attracted more than 200 people, through to your follow up with buyers. In particular, your communication with the entire family was excellent - it made everyone feel involved, and enabled us to reach a consensus on all decisions.
At the end of the day, we always felt you were going the extra mile to achieve the highest possible price. We could not have asked for a more thorough, committed agent. We would be happy to recommend you to anyone who is looking for the services of a highly professional agent."
"I would highly recommend that you appoint Di Grundy to act as your agent in the sale of your property.
Di Grundy and her assistant Stacey Lymbery worked on the sale of my apartment in June 2006 and they successfully sold my apartment for a price of $1.2million, which is a record for the building.
I had totally refurbished the apartment and had spent countless hours in overseeing the work, preparing development applications, selecting the materials and ensuring that all work was completed to the highest standard. Approximately 1 year later, circumstances had changed and I decided to sell the apartment. I wanted to appoint someone who believed in the renovations and who was highly professional.
Di Grundy and Stacey Lymbery inspected the apartment and I could instantly see that they had an eye for detail and appreciated the finishes of the apartment. I believe that they are intelligent and highly professional.
Di Grundy was a perfect person to negotiate with and she has an excellent knowledge of the market. I would have no hesitation in recommending that you appoint Di Grundy to sell your property."
"Di Grundy sold 3 properties for us this year, ranging in value from $5 million to $500k and in areas as diverse as Woollahra, Kings Cross and Zetland.
In each case, Di knew (or researched) the market thoroughly and was strategic in her approach. She developed an individual marketing and presentation strategy for each property. She managed the potential purchasers sensitively and carefully to achieve an optimal result.
I would have no hesitation in recommending Di."
"Di Grundy has recently achieved an extraordinary result with the sale of our two bedroom apartment in Elizabeth Bay. The price achieved was well in excess of our expectations.
Looking back, I would say there are a definite number of things that made me pleased that we had chosen Di as our agent.
Firstly, I had underestimated the stress connected with being a vendor, and the work in involved in preparing the unit for sale. However, under Di’s wing and following her guidance and suggestions, the campaign flowed smoothly and problems were easily overcome.
Secondly, working with my brother and sister at times presented different levels of understanding, but again Di provided the right level of balance to circumnavigate some of the arising situations.
It seemed at any one time it wasn’t just us who were making the effort to maintain the high presentation of the unit – Di made us feel we were part of a team and that made the world of difference.
On auction day, everything came to a climax, especially when the bidding paused at a figure under our expectations. Once again, Di gave us that reassuring smile and helped us to remain stoic, which worked perfectly, as the price soared to well over our expectations.
The expression “you get what you pay for” is valid, but in our case, what came for free is working with such a seasoned professional like Di Grundy."
