I would like to enthusiastically express my absolute gratitude, satisfaction and appreciation in regards to our recent working agreement to contract with you to serve as my real estate agent, to cell my property in Bondi Beach, NSW.
Without reservation, I was overwhelmed by your Professionalism as it replanted to:
• Communication: Virtually every step along the way, you continually reached out to me, via phone and email to inform me as to everything in regards to daily scheduling of showing my property; regular updates, of interested persons as to interest in my property; ongoing questions and further updates; details of the actual action, including the names and degree to interest of each person attending the auction; immediate results of the auction, including the step by step details of the 100+ bids on the property.
• Availability: In the midst of your very busy schedule, I was amazed that you virtually made yourself available to personally talk to me by phone each and every time I wanted/needed to personally chat with you.
• Productivity: I was incredibly impressed with your resourcefulness in terms of generating interest throughout NSW and motivating numerous persons to come out to your showings to personally view my property.
• Final Result: As a result of your leadership, my property sold for 2 and ½ times the amount I paid for the property 10+ years ago. This was about $500,000.00 more than my stated selling preference.
It is quite difficult to try to put into words the degree of elation experienced by me because of your diligent work, resolve and results.

I had been approached by many agencies who wished to market my home however I had previously seen Phoebe’s management of a sales campaign in my area and she had been not only tenacious but highly successful in a protracted sale.
These professional young women have been outstanding in all areas of our relationship. They were extremely thorough in their estimation of my home’s value and in all aspects of presentation and marketing. Their informal and written communications have been prompt, regular and insightful - second to none.
Due to very fluid economic conditions with Covid, we had a five week campaign with constant “on demand” viewings but during this Phoebe and Marion were so respectful of my family’s needs; no request was ever too much, no surface was left without Glen 20, no potential purchaser left without a follow-up call. With their support and professionalism there was never a time when I felt stressed and was extremely pleased that they were able to achieve a result well above my expectation.
Having now sold three properties in two years using three different agencies, I can confidently say that my experience with Richardson and Wrench has been exceptional and I would recommend Marion and Phoebe without reservation. No other agent offered anything remotely near their efforts. If one values knowledge, attention to detail, transparency and communication, these delightful young women are the ultimate.

We cannot speak highly enough of Phoebe and the R&W Double Bay team. Phoebe’s professionalism and knowledge, coupled with her energetic and bubbly persona ensures trustworthy connections with both vendors and potential buyers.
We have engaged Phoebe’s services now on a number of occasions and will certainly do so for any future ventures!

Phoebe was a clear and consistent agent who constantly and reliably updated us once we expressed interest in a property. From the first inspection through to the auction she was open and shared information and assisted us in the process of buying the home we are thrilled to move into. We’d previously had terrible experiences with real estate agents and Phoebe was a refreshing trustworthy person to come across in this industry. She gave a very accurate indication of price expectations which helped us manage our planning and assessment of whether this house was an option for us.

When it came to the presentation of our home Phoebe’s attention to detail was extremely impressive. We would highly recommend Richardson and Wrench, Double Bay as they always act with integrity and value client relationships.

These guys were exceptional in both their professional manner as well as their friendly nature and constant kind reassurance.
The house was marketed at a time when the market was falling due to a banking commission and poor economy, leaving few buyers with access to funds. The sale was also complicated by the tenancy arrangement with 11 tenants sharing the home on separate tenancies. Despite all obstacles Phoebe and Glenn were able to find a buyer and conducted a sale at a very pleasing price.
I'm very impressed with every facet of my dealings with this company and recommend them highly.
Thanks guys, Ill miss you.

Recently your office sold our apartment in Young Street, Paddington. We are extremely happy with the results and the way your team worked with us.
This great outcome was achieved by the outstanding diligence, attention to details and the charming diplomacy of your team, Phoebe Sheperd, Marion Badenoch and Tim Muckenschnabl.
Marion has been patiently keeping in touch with us for some years, anticipating that a sale might happen. Then when the decision to sell was made, Phoebe and Marion explained the process to us in some detail. Even before there was any agreement, they helped us with their list of quality trades people to prepare the place for sale. After we signed the Agency Agreement, they moved quickly and efficiently to market the property. We had a very strong response to their email and internet promotion. So many people viewed that Phoebe, Marion and Tim had their hands full coping with the viewings.
The campaign was short - four weeks. Not wanting to miss any opportunity, Phoebe volunteered her time to open on Thursday evenings on top of the Wednesday and Saturday events. And when a dawn photo was needed, they got up at 5 o'clock on a grey Monday to catch the sunrise.
Selling is quite an emotional exercise; they nursed us through it beautifully with daily communication: phones, texts and emails. Every potential buyer was qualified. We were carefully guided so that our expectations did not run too high. No doubt my stubbornness must have been annoying. They were not discouraged, the team always responded calmly and with smiling diplomacy. Great talent.
You know the most important thing I can say in summing up is: it was fun, we really enjoyed their lively company and we'll miss them. It was a completely successful experience.
Thank you Phoebe, Marion and Tim.

We have worked with Phoebe previously as buyers and it was an easy decision for us to have her as our agent when we decided to sell. Phoebe displays a level of integrity, honesty and dedication that is rare in our experience. She has excellent market knowledge and is extremely personable, and went above and beyond when working with our prospective buyers.
We are very happy to highly recommend her and have loved working with her.

Phoebe and her team were at all times professional and supportive of our endeavour to purchase our property. She was always able to be contacted even outside her normal hours of work.
She worked diligently with legal team to ensure a prompt and suitable exchange / settlement. If your looking for property in the Eastern Suburbs I can highly recommend her and the team at R&W Double bay.
"Thanks" Phoebe and Tim.

Her amazing assistance with this complex sale of an estate property was extremely impressive accompanied with a confident yet personal approach. I was even more impressed with how she took charge of the purchasers leaving them all wanting to bid higher.
Phoebe always kept the vendor and solicitor diligently informed of the progress with inspections, inquiries and was always ready to make herself available to show the property to prospective purchasers; no task or request too great.
Thank you for your care and attention like no other. I look forward to a long relationship with you.

From the moment we met Phoebe at an open inspection for another property, she was engaged and genuinely interested in our personal situation and how she may be able to help. At no point during the process was Phoebe pushy which was refreshing. Her communication with us was excellent throughout and she achieved a great result in a compressed timeframe.
We would highly recommend speaking to Phoebe before appointing another agent.

Selling your home can be stressful, and Paul, Phoebe and Lilian kept things on an even footing throughout.

She should write a book on how to be an agent.
Not only did Phoebe make the entire experience not only pleasant but dare I say enjoyable, she smashed expectations when it came to getting a result.
Put simply if you are looking to sell this legend is the person to do it for you.
Thank you so much!

The results far exceeded my expectations, and this was in no small part due to Phoebe's advice throughout the whole process and her ability to attract buyers.

We first met Phoebe when purchasing our property in Kensington and had no hesitation engaging her when it came to selling the same property. We never considered another agent.
Phoebe is experienced and very knowledgeable and ahead of current market trends, sales and insights and always goes the extra mile to help with the buying/selling journey from the very beginning until well after the sale is completed. She is honest, authentic and respectful.
We would highly recommend Phoebe and we are looking forward to working with her again in the future.

Phoebe applied so much effort, knowledge, enthusiasm and diligence as our agent in selling our property, in what turned out to be not just a very favourable result, but was extremely stress free. Now how often does that happen?
I would highly recommend Phoebe to anyone considering either buying or selling - she's the go too girl!

From the initial expert marketing advice on presentation, sales method and timing through to the auction itself we were very impressed with their effort and professionalism. Throughout the sales campaign itself we were kept fully up to date with progress and feedback from potential buyers.
We would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Phoebe and Marion to anybody considering selling their property.

In the period between exchange of contracts through to settlement, Phoebe was always more than happy to arrange access to the apartment for us, no matter how many times we made this request of her and was always a pleasure to deal with. She has a wonderful personality and was always upbeat and smiling. Nothing was too much effort for her.
Phoebe would be our choice of agent in the future.

Phoebe was an absolute pleasure to deal with when purchasing our property. She accommodated all of our needs including organising numerous pre-settlement inspections, returning our 100 phone calls & questions regarding the property. She made the whole process as easy as it could have been.
Thanks for your help Phoebe, it didn't go unnoticed!

This flat, although well maintained and occupied by successive long term tenants e.g the most recent from 2006 to end May 2015, had not been renovated for many years.
Our flat, was the third of similar unrestored G type flats in the building to come onto the market in the first quarter of 2015, the second 17G , sold at auction by R&W a month or so earlier.
In the buoyant property market, I contracted with R &W and granted Phoebe a limited opportunity sell our flat, being initially a10 day window (with no marketing budget) which was subsequently extended some additional weeks to embrace the potential final purchaser.
Throughout the period Phoebe, was
- determined and diligent in pursuance of the sale.
- a very active communicator between myself, the tenant and the purchaser.
- helpful in liaising between the respective solicitors.
- all administration matters from pre sale thru to post settlement were dealt with very smoothly efficiently.
- most important was the excellent result attained ; in that the price level she negotiated was substantially above my own expectations.
In summary, throughout the short time that I have known and have had dealings with Phoebe, she has presented herself as a very friendly and attractive person who has acted acted at all times most professionally.
I have no hesitation recommending Phoebe to anyone seeking in the future her real estate services.

Originally from Hobart she has a warmth and genuineness that is not seen in the Eastern Suburbs pretty much anywhere - let alone in the real estate game. She was open, friendly, crystal clear, and up front with what she knew and what she didn't - and there haven't been any surprises since moving in that I wasn't aware of prior to buying.
She has maintained contact and provided updates of properties that bear some relation to mine (good and bad) to give a clear indication of what exactly I'd purchased and how its value was tracking. She's a real person in a business where talk is cheap. I'd buy from her again.

Our successful sale of Milroy Avenue,with Richardson and Wrench, Double Bay, demonstrated the perfect transaction and right choice of agent.
The ability to read any market and place our property accordingly, was an enormous plus as we entered the sales campaign, Michael Dunn and Phoebe Shepperd were always available, eager to provide "feed back" and genuinely worked hard for our result.
The greatest asset in any business, is relationships, returning to an agency that you see as "your family agent"……thank you both for care and attention to detail like no other.
We look forward to a long relationship with you both.

It was thus an easy decision to use the “Phoebe Shepperd and Michael Dunn” partnership to sell our home in Rose Bay. What a great team! Everything was well planned, we were kept completely up to date and were well advised. The marketing was excellent and the attendance at our open homes was incredible. We took their advice and went to auction with our home rather than taking offers beforehand – that was the right decision, achieving us a price way beyond our reserve. We have been singing Phoebe’s praises to anyone who will listen and feel very confident in giving her a thorough recommendation if you are considering selling your property. We are happy to be contacted for further information.

From our first encounter at inspection Phoebe engaged us with ease, and was helpful but not pushy. If there was something she couldn’t answer, she took the time to follow up and provide us with a prompt response. She accommodated our needs and was available to talk with us late at night after we put the kids to bed. Phoebe’s genuine nature made us feel comfortable and nothing we asked or arranged for ever felt like an impost.
On auction day, Phoebe demonstrated her skilful ability in getting the best outcome from us as the buyer, again without being too pushy. The week that followed was one of intense negotiations in which Phoebe worked incredibly hard in bridging the divide, by communicating effectively and transparently to close the deal.
We were so impressed with Phoebe throughout the journey that we engaged her to sell our property. She did an excellent job in guiding us through that process and kept us on track, as well as provided many relevant contacts to get our property ready for sale. We sold our property above market expectation. Phoebe Shepperd is a consummate professional in residential sales and we recommend her without reservation.
