Testimonials

 Ana Robertson

This is to commend the performance of Ana Robertson who has been acting as our Real Estate Agent for the last four months. In that time she behaved in a most professional manner, has presented our home for sale in a captivating way that attracted many viewings and performed open houses every Saturday until a sale was procured. Ana has always been available no matter what the time of the day or night we called and worked many hours in an attempt to sell our property. She also communicated well with the buyers to finalise the deal with building inspections and finance. We would be very pleased to recommend Ana as an agent, to anyone seeking to sell a property in any price range.

We found Ana Robertson to be very good at what she does. After two months with another agency no sale, I gave her permission to try to sell it and after just three weeks Ana had sold it. (Job well done).

Philp Dolan

We would just like to commend Ana Robertson for the dedication to her work and her management of the sales process of our home. Ana has always made herself available, was extremely efficient with “feedback” about any action that had taken place regarding our property and her manner towards us was always of the highest professional level. Should you be thinking or selling a property, than we recommend that you give Ana the chance to take care of you.

 Jo Dougherty

Jo Dougherty has been managing an investment property for us in Eagleby for the last eight years. During that time we have found Jo to be an effective and efficient manager. She has never failed to inform us of any issues requiring our attention. She is totally reliable. We know that when she says she will follow something up, she does. Although capable of making her own decisions she always ensures we are aware of repairs that need doing and potential costs especially the most reasonable cost. She interacts well with tradespeople always ensuring that we have received value for money. We wish Jo all the very best in her future career and we would have no hesitation in supporting Jo in any position requiring self-motivation, honesty and management of property.

Johanna Dougherty has been known to me for the past 4 years. I have bought several investment properties in Eagleby through Greenacres Realty where Johanna is the Sales and Property Manager. As a first time investor 4 years ago, Johanna’s professionalism, care and advice through the maze of legal requirements needed to purchase the property was invaluable. Johanna offered the same expertise and care with my subsequent purchases in Eagleby. Throughout my dealings with Johanna I have found her to be a most sincere person of good character and integrity. She is extremely professional, helpful, caring and nothing seems to be too much for her in helping me with the often difficult job of finding workmen to solve the usual array of problems that arise in investment properties. This is especially important for me as an interstate investor, where the management of my properties would be an impossible task. Without the personal care that Johanna gives to me in screening for the right tenants, maintenance of my properties, prompt contact with any problems and continual updates on the progress of my properties, I would not be able to continue to invest interstate. I have no hesitation in recommending Johanna Dougherty as a person of impeccable character and integrity.

On behalf of myself and my wife I would like to take this opportunity to thank you for being so dedicated to the task of managing our property here at Eagleby over the last number of years. It has been somewhat of a problem at times in different ways, but we could always count on you to come through. The tenants that you have placed in our unit have obviously been of good stature as the condition of the town house was in an excellent condition. This was quite surprising, considering the age of the property. Once again, thank you all for the work you have done and we wish everyone at Greenacres every success for the future.

I first became acquainted with Johanna in November 2002 when I purchased a property in River Hills Rd, Eagleby, which had been advertised by Greenacres Real Estate, a local agency. The property consisted of 8 brick and tile cottages, some 7 or 8 years old, constructed on a 5000 square meter block. It was a fair sized property and consequently there were a considerable number of enquiries, formalities, inspections and the like to be accomplished prior to settlement on December 9th 2002. As we proceeded into this process it became increasingly obvious that the motivating force in the Agency was Johanna, the Office Manager. Subsequent to completion my Solicitors commented on her efficiency, the expedience with which she conducted the Agency’s affairs and also the fact that it had been a positive pleasure to work with her. In the years that followed the agency managed the property for me and we became not merely business associates but in due course, I like to think, good friends. The properties were at first all tenanted and Johanna presided over the operation, which included several tenancy changes, with great aplomb and to my perfect satisfaction. She was meticulous in her selection of tenants and we had virtually zero problems with her choices. However in due course I began to sell off the cottages one by one and it was here that Johanna’s advice and guidance were invaluable. She presided over the sales with a piercing eye for potential trouble makers, a most important skill in these multiple dwelling situations where personalities can present large scale problems when they get out of hand. In due course 5 out of the 8 cottages were sold off and I retain 3 as in investment. These sales evidenced the fact that Johanna has an almost encyclopaedic knowledge of Real Estate in all its many facets. She handled the sales seemingly effortlessly and again to me and my solicitors total satisfaction. Sadly the owner of the Agency decided to move it from Eagleby to Marsden and consequently we parted company. However in conclusion I would like to comment that in a long life of dealing with Real Estate investments I have never met her peer in the pursuit of this most demanding profession........She is a gem........I am available for and further comment or enlargement which might be required.

Johanna Dougherty commenced employment with my real estate office, Greenacres Realty in December 2000, and completed her employment in March 2006 when I retired and closed the office. Johanna was originally employed as the Office Receptionist, providing support and assistance to three agents conducting sales and property management. Johanna displayed a keen interest and affinity for the real estate industry, which lead to her obtaining her Real Estate Certificate in May 2001. Due to office expansion, upon receipt of this certification, Johanna was promoted to Property Manager for Greenacres Realty managing approximately 150 properties and being responsible for training and supervision of two new office assistants. Johanna was also involved with property sales during this time. Johanna’s professional attitude was reflected in her success as an excellent Property Manager and in property sales. Johanna’s role as Property Manager saw her represent Greenacres Realty in Small Claims Tribunal and responsible for the collection of outstanding debts incurred. Both responsibilities were efficiently and resourcefully undertaken, to my complete satisfaction. During any times I was to be away from the office over a period of days, Johanna would assume all financial and professional responsibilities on my behalf. In one instance, due to a family emergency, Johanna was solely responsible for the management of the business, and I had no concern with her ability or dependability, and was confident that Johanna would continue to conduct herself in the professional and trustworthy manner she had consistently displayed. However, I consider Johanna’s greatest attributes to be her loyalty, honesty and integrity in all professional dealings. Johanna is always well presented and has a friendly and open personality, which is a great asset to her in the real estate industry. I would have no hesitation in recommending Johanna for any role she was seeking, both within and outside of the real estate industry, and believe she is a valuable asset to any business.

Hi Mary, We would like to take this opportunity to ‘THANK YOU’ for completing the successful sale of our home and the purchase of our land recently. You kept us informed at all times and showed great professionalism in all your dealings with us. We appreciated the prompt phone calls after each inspection and the written copy of all inspection and internet enquiries. I found you Mary, to be thoroughly professional and efficient as well as friendly and always available for any assistance or information I needed. I was kept fully informed at all times of progress and nothing was a problem at any time, day or night, seven days a week. I wish you all the best in your real estate career and would highly recommend you to anyone who is thinking of selling or purchasing a property.
