Testimonials
To face selling my home of 54 years and to search for a new place to live after the death of my husband was traumatic. I am so grateful that Bill came along and from the word go at a very difficult time due to Covid-19 was my agent. He worked tirelessly in order to succeed. Sensing into my needs regarding a new home Bill was able to find the ideal place for me in which I can now relax and enjoy for the rest of my life.
We have owned three homes in nearly 50 years. Bill Thompson has sold every one of them. That might suggest that Bill is old, but he brings experience, trust and quite some wisdom with it. This recent sale is the only one of those three that we initiated the contact with Bill, which was because we know that he will do the best that he possibly can for his clients. He has been in the Manningham area so long that he knows myriads of people and most of the properties as well. We have been delighted with our experience with Bill as our agent.
Bill was a very nice person to deal with and I had a long conversation with him about property prices and suburbs. I found Bill very knowledgeable and extremely pleasant to deal with.
Jodi and her colleague Bill Thompson were extremely professional, friendly, communicative and effective in securing the sale of our subdivided lot in difficult economic and pre-election times. Their wise advice to 'go to market' was proven correct, despite our reservations. At no stage were they pressuring us in any way and were always available to answer queries. The whole exercise was relatively stress free and their skills and demeanour gave us great confidence. A job very well done in all respects.
Very enjoyable. Bill displayed wonderful knowledge of the market and was at all time very professional and polite.
