David Jones's Testimonials
David was fantastic, could not fault him. Everything he said he’d do he did plus some extras. Superior service – went well beyond the call of duty – have recommended him to several people in area – job well done. Thank you very much.

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.

Dear Daniel
We would like you to know that we were most impressed with the very prompt manner in which you effected the sale of our property and the subsequent negotiations regarding the rental of another place for us to move into.
For those people who are looking to purchase or selling of real estate we can highly recommend the Professionals.

"We found Daniel Pigram to be very knowledgeable and full of helpful hints and tips. He was professional and yet caring and happy at all times. Daniel was friendly and really put us at ease. He made the whole experience as pleasant and stress free as it could be. We have no hesitation in recommending Daniel---he was terrific!"
All the best in the future,

Lorna Kelly looked after us and was extremely professional & went over and above what is normal to ensure our needs were met to ensure the sale & purchase went smoothly. We would seek lorna again to assist us with any future real estate requirements we may need.
Stephen Johnson & Jennifer Rae
Lorna, I want to really thank you for the first class way you have handled this whole process. It has been a real challenge in this market to sell the house, and you have always been prompt, accurate and supportive at every step of the way. Thank you for that, and I know that if I return to the area in a few years (which is always very possible with my globehopping), that I will approach you to be my real estate agent again in any future purchases.
Andrew Hewitt
Mary was very professional in her dealings with me and I have no complaints. She is an asset to your company. I most certainly have and will continue to recommend your agency to my friends. You are a great team and a pleasure to deal with. Thank you.

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.

Keep up the great work. Great Job, Thanks.
Wal & Chris Webb
We particularly liked the professional photos that were taken of our property. I believe these went a long way into helping us sell and get top dollar. A very good service.

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).

Jo, thank you for doing such a great job managing my property up in Eagleby. I really appreciate your great efforts. Thanks,
Alan.
Hi Daniel,
I would like to thank you and the team at the Professionals Beenleigh for your excellent service throughout the year. Anne Hair and her property management team did an oustanding job in regards to my rental property, and yourself and the sales team went the extra yard to sell my property. Your efforts are very much appreciated. I look forward to future dealings with the Professionals, and will certainly recommend your services to any friends and family that may require them.
Best regards,
Gino Fiocco

Daniel went to a great deal of trouble finding the right buyer for our property, he kept us informed at all times and showed great professionalism in all his dealings with us. He sold the property and settlement occurred in less than sixty days from the date of listing with him.
We would have no problem in recommending Daniel to any prospective seller, or for that matter any prospective buyer as we are confident he will do all he can to arrange the best price he can.
Thanks Daniel for a job well done.

We have no hesitation in recommending David Jones from the Professionals Real Estate Agency.
Prior to dealing with David we were with another agency for 12 months with no results at all – not even an offer! Our morale and pride in what we had accomplished with our property had taken a very hard knock. After doing some homework and contacting a number of agencies in the local area, we decided to give David and his team a try.
At our first meeting we were very impressed with his professionalism. He outlined his plan thoroughly and made sure we felt comfortable with the proposal, advertising and fees. He was very positive about our property and its value and was very confident that he could sell it quickly. Which is exactly what he did!!! In fact he had it sold within 3 WEEKS – without lowering the sale price listed with the other agency.
David’s marketing strategies are very sound. His photography and write up for our advertising campaign were outstanding. Lots of hits on the net with genuine enquiries ensued within a very short time; three open house weekends with lots of people attending which led to two contracts and then a sale.
David isn’t just in it for the money, he genuinely cares about his clients – no matter whether they are selling or buying. He is very approachable and he keeps his clients informed of progress. His knowledge of the real estate market is sound and we would have definitely entrusted him to guide us in purchasing another property or oversee another sale if we had stayed in the local area.
We would encourage anyone to entrust their real estate requirements to David Jones. We know you won’t be disappointed.
Bernice and Ray Bryan
Simon and I would like to express to you our deepest gratitude for the wonderful commitment supplied to us by David Jones, during the sale of our home in Ormeau Hills.
Both Simon and I feel that Davids work ethic was second to none, he provided us with the highest standard of integrity, diplomacy and honesty we thought was unheard of within the real estate industry. He was punctual for appointments, always liaising with us so we knew what was going on and always respectful that this was our home and not just another "sale". We were so impressed with his handling of our home and would gladly recommend his services to anyone seeking to employ a true professional for the selling of any real estate property. We wish there were more true and honest people like him around.
Carolyne & Simon Hatton
Our home had been on the market with other local real estate agencies with no success. David had the challenge to re market our home in which he did with great success. David had a fresh approach and a new marketing package and represented our home to the buyers.
David was very professional and has a great local knowledge of the area. Always keeps in contact with and gives feedback on inspections straight way.
If you want to sell your home David is the agent we would recommend. He works for you and gets the job done - he is great. He will be selling our next home.
Perry & Sharon Russell
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.
Mark & Summer Palmer
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.
Annette Pickford
I would like to say how impressed I have been with Patty Walker your Senior Property Manager. I have always managed my own properties in the past as I haven’t found an agent I could work with, and was able to use agents to find a tenant then let me manage them. Now things have changed.
I have a rental property that the tenant was being evicted and so I needed an agent to find a new tenant. I rang around the real estate agents but most seemed to only be interested in the number of properties I had, not doing any work for me. Patty was very different, we seemed to both be on the same wavelength. She has really helped me with information/advice in relation to the evicted tenant, and has also been helping me with the renovations required to be done before a new tenant can move in. I think most people think she is mad to take on such a job so close to Christmas.
She has gone way over what I thought an agent would do for me even to offering to buy new
curtains for me! I will certainly recommend her to anyone I know and have in fact posted comments on Somersoft Property Investors Forum as one person wanted an agent in that area.
Heather Donald
We are relatively new to the investment property market. After an investment stint many years ago whereby we watched our property deteriorate due to incompetent property managers, we cannot stress enough the importance of having a property manager who will work for you and with you
instead of against you. Our dealings with Patty Walker have been exceptional. Her professionalism, helpfulness and willingness to get the job done has been very welcome in the day to day dealings of owning an investment property. She has always been very approachable and appears to have a keen instinct when it comes to canvassing prospective tenants. The ability to help ease sometimes stressful situations that arise in being a property owner is also to be commended. I am happy to say that Patty is one property manager that keeps her finger on the pulse.

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.
Patrick Tagney Principal – Greenacres Realty
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.

We are very pleased to write in reference to the performance of Ms Johanna Dougherty, of Greenacre Realty, with whom we have had a number of business dealings over the last four years.
Whether as prospective buyers or as property owners, we have always found Ms Dougherty to be extremely professional, proficient and courteous. She has always been willing to put in the time necessary to achieve the best result for all parties. Her professionalism and honesty has meant that we have always felt reassured that we can contact her if any problems should arise and that they will be dealt with efficiently and in a timely manner.
We have had no hesitation in recommending her to friends and colleagues who have also found her performance to be more than satisfactory.
Allan Thompson & Maxwell Paton
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.
Gerard & Pam Clough
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.
