Daniel Pigram's Testimonials

Dear Daniel

We would like to take this opportunity to thank you for completing the successful sale of our home recently.

We found you to be professional in your conduct at all times and appreciated you keeping us informed as to the progress of the sale of our home.

With your friendly helpful manner, we are sure you will find you have many more happy satisfied customers in the future and we wish you well.

Yours sincerley,
Rob & Karen Cooper

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

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 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.

Leigh Toovey & Ella Briscoe

My wife and I would like to express our appreciation for the friendly and professional way that Jo Dougherty has managed our rental property over the past 8 months. Jo helped us to sort out a mess created by our previous agent, and gave us a lot of helpful advice. We also appreciated her diligence in obtaining quotes for general maintenance work that was necessary, and we saved a lot of money through her diligence. We recommend her services.

Lynne & Alvin Wood

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.

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.

Robbert and Carleen Peperzeel

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

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.

Rosemary Molloy

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.

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 have only dealt with your company for such a short while but the help and service has been first class... true professionals!


Cruza & Tony Eaton

Thank you for a swift sale, you were great.

Michelle McCarron

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

Jo, thank you for doing such a great job managing my property up in Eagleby. I really appreciate your great efforts. Thanks,

Alan.

We were very happy with the service from all staff at Professionals Beenleigh. We were looked after excellently and have had a very memorable experience of selling our home and highly recommend Professionals Beenleigh and Steven Brooks.

Jeffrey Wuiske

I would like to take this opportunity to thank Paul Jacobs and the team of Professionals at the Professionals Jacobs Well & Beenleigh Offices. The service they provided in the sale of my home was outstanding. Having never sold a property before I found it just a little daunting until I got to know Paul over the few weeks my property was listed. I felt like I was talking with a mate and not a Real Estate agent…. and then the announcement of a Contract leading to the sale. I would not hesitate to recommend Paul and the team for any of your Real Estate needs.

Chris Williamson

Your professionalism was of the highest standard in regards to my property sale at 258 Mount Warren Blvd Mount Warren Park. Your contact by phone letters in regards to the sale of the property was much appreciated as I knew continuously the situation of our sale.

Wayne McGregor

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.

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

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.

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

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.
