“Their premium service extended past settlement as they have helped us with all the additional things you need even cleaners, trades and ideas. Whatever we asked for, they delivered.Knowing what we know now our only regret is that we didn’t engage them sooner! We cannot recommend BuyEast highly enough for their professionalism, market insights and care. We feel very lucky to have worked with these gentlemen.”
“We couldn’t recommend Dave more highly as a Buyers Agent. His professionalism, can-do attitude and exceptional service made the process much easier, and when we finally found our dream home his timely and strategic advice allowed us to secure the property prior to auction at a great price. Thanks Dave!”
“BuyEast helped us achieve one of our biggest milestones to date as a couple; buying our first home together. After 2+ years of actively searching, the early months of 2021 were disheartening as we watched the slim pickings of properties in a demand flooded market get picked off pre-auction at what seemed ridiculous price tags. As we narrowed in on a property in Bondi Junction and were negotiating with the seller’s agent, we once again felt like fish out of water with insufficient market information. We decided to level the playing field (as best a buyer can in this market) and called on the BuyEast cavalry. From the moment we first spoke with Kim, we never looked back and felt like this was the way to win. Through our engagement we were assisted by many of the BuyEast team, who were always there to assist at short notice, any time of the week. Dealing with Kim and Mark was a pleasure – they transparently shared their expertise, talked us through their thoughts and strategies, and operated with the same determination to secure a property as we did. After an initial quite narrow focus on a few streets in Bondi Junction, the team showed us various other highly suitable properties in other areas. We’ve ended up in Paddington and couldn’t be happier and, ironically, look back at those initial streets and think how perfect it is where we’ve landed.”
“Since moving to Sydney earlier this year, we spent 4 long months looking for a small place to call home in the Eastern Suburbs. The market seemed to be getting more and more difficult and the location became increasingly unaffordable.Aaron came recommended to us by another agent so we were a little sceptical at first. We have used buyers agents before, however in New Zealand, the vendor’s agent pays for them rather than the buyer. From the very first in person meeting the initial scepticism disappeared. Aaron helped to set out a wish list of property locations, types and non-negotiable features and help to concentrate our search to a few key suburbs. HIs detailed knowledge of the area was invaluable.Within 4 weeks and after only a few viewings Aaron found our dream apartment. Since it was purchased off-market the whole process happened very quickly and we had our offer accepted within a week of the first visit to the property. He helped us through the entire process from scheduling viewings, to negotiating the offer, right through to the day of settlement.I would highly recommend Aaron to anyone struggling to buy in the Eastern Suburbs and will definitely be using him again in the future.”
“We had the pleasure of utilising the services of BuyEast in early 2021. To be honest I had always been sceptical of using a buyer’s agent in the past. After my experience with BuyEast it was clear that scepticism was misplaced. We retained Mark and the BuyEast team to find our forever home. From the outset we knew that we were in capable hands - from the initial consultation to the regular updates, the BuyEast team kept us informed of any new properties that fitted our criteria. After reviewing a significant number of properties we finally found the perfect home (which was never advertised). I firmly believe that if it was not for BuyEast we would still be looking for a home. Indeed, in a hyper-competitive, fast-paced eastern suburbs property market, I consider the services of BuyEast are essential. I cannot speak highly enough of each of Mark, Jess, Aaron and Will. Their commitment to finding the right property is second to none as is their knowledge of the eastern suburbs property market and their extensive network. In addition to being immensely capable and professional they are a delight to deal with. Highly recommended.”
“Mark and his team at Buy East were incredibly professional, friendly, knowledgeable, calm and well connected. They made the house-buying process as smooth and enjoyable as possible from start to end. Most of all, they found us our dream home within our budget. And it was a home that was not advertised, so we would never have found it if it wasn’t for Buy East. We can’t recommend Buy East highly enough and look forward to working with them again when we’re next in the market to buy a new home or investment property.”
“We were highly sceptical about the benefits of using a buyer’s agent, and then once we made the decision to work with one, highly focused on ensuring we chose the right one. We could not have been happier with choosing BuyEast, and even more so, working with Will Hotson. Not only did Will exceed every expectation we had about working with a buyer’s agent, specifically with respect to access to off-market properties and supporting us navigate the entire process, but he also delivered above and beyond in many other respects, most importantly, becoming a trusted advisor. We very quickly came to trust that Will not only understood what we were searching for in a home, but also, what we were searching for in our life. And he became even less willing to compromise than we did in the pursuit of optimising both. At no point did we feel that Will was putting the agency’s interests ahead of ours, in fact, always felt he was prioritising our interests above all. Will is clearly respected by those in the industry and possesses the skills to negotiate with the best of them. His knowledge of agency side and building expertise also puts him in a unique position to advise buyers on purchasers beyond the usual ‘buyers agent’ scope. Thanks to Will and BuyEast, we achieved a fantastic result for our house purchase, and couldn’t be happier with our buyer’s agent experience. The only downside to our new home is that we no longer get to hang out with Will!”
“I had searched the eastern suburbs long and hard for over a year on my own but with no success in finding the right long term residence for me in a difficult market.Once I engaged BuyEast and had Dave Petrini on my team working on my behalf I had a lot more support and expertise on the case.Dave proved to be very dedicated, friendly and personable and understanding of what sort of property I needed. He helped greatly in viewing and assessing properties and went in to bat for me successfully at the critical time of purchasing the property prior to auction. He is a real pleasure to work with.I would not hesitate to recommend Dave Petrini and BuyEast and would use them again if I had to buy another property”
“Engaging Buy East was the one of the best decisions I have ever made. Mark and Aaron have been so dedicated to finding me the right home, despite the difficult brief. They not only worked extremely hard, but made themselves available any time I wanted to talk, and showed genuine care for, and understanding of, both the pragmatic and emotional sides of my buying journey. Had I not engaged them I don’t believe I would have found the property that I have, which I am incredibly happy with. I would recommend them to anyone looking to buy!”
“A big thank you for the extra-ordinary support received from Will Hotson through our buying journey. We are very happy with our new apartment and look forward to enjoying it for many years to come. We could never have achieved such a successful outcome without relying on Will’s expertise and judgement and look forward to working with him and the team in the future.”
“Although initially a bit of an emotional experience, the process to buy our house has been amazing. We felt totally supported and held through every step on the way.We saw a lot of amazing houses and were just about to buy the wrong house. I am not sure what possessed Will to propose a totally off-brief home to us, but we trusted the process and had a look.What we found is 100% our house. It is old but cool, big but small, wrong but so right. We never would have had the chance to see it without you guys and even if we had the opportunity to see it, We would never have been able to secure it.We are thrilled to say the least and will be singing praises for a long time to come. Thanks again.”
“Will and Mark are utterly delightful and made our experience of looking for a new home exciting and effortless, even in the midst of a pandemic-fuelled housing market. They listened to our brief - and helped us refine it over time - and were always patient and able to offer us informed advice on all manner of property-related subjects, from re-imagining a living space to how to bid strategically. As first home buyers we had constant questions, which Will and Mark were always able to answer thoughtfully and thoroughly. Nothing was too hard for them. We never felt pushed or rushed, and felt like we could completely trust them to work in our best interest. We are thrilled with the result!”
“We could not recommend BuyEast more highly. The prospect of buying a house in an expensive, highly competitive, Eastern suburbs market with limited stock during a pandemic was a very intimidating, time consuming and frustrating.. We were playing a game where we didn’t even understand the rules. From our first meeting with Mark, Will and Dave they put us at ease with their professional, knowledgeable and friendly manner. They got to know us and our specific needs and were tireless in pursuit of our brief - they tailed the real-estate agent to their office to secure us the property!. As they showed us more and more properties, (most off market), our brief changed. We are incredibly happy with the house we ended up with, even though it was not what we imagined at the start of our journey. The process was easy, seamless and their communication clear and incredibly timely. The insight into the background processes of property sales was eye opening. Having BuyEast on our side made us feel like we were leveling the playing field against wily agents, and stopped us getting taken advantage of. Having been through the process we would never buy another property with out them in our corner.”
“From the moment we engaged Mark and Will to help us in our property search, we knew we had made the right decision. And we are now the proud owners of a family home in a street we have always dreamed of! They were an absolute pleasure to deal with - honest, direct and transparent in their communication. (And just all round good humans to top it off!). They helped us to refine our search brief, encouraging us to see opportunities in new ways, whilst patiently adapting as our requirements and circumstances evolved. In the final stages of the process, their negotiation approach was thoughtful, level headed and well executed. This first class service did not end once we purchased our home. Even weeks later, Mark has shared his own development experience with us - sketching up some ideas for our future plans and connecting us with builders. An all round positive experience which we would highly recommend to others. Thank you to your amazing team!! ”
“After spending six months house hunting in a highly competitive market with very low stock, and feeling very disheartened after missing out on several properties, we decided to work with Buy East to assist us in finding a home for our family. Ronan Chastain and Dave Petrini are unparalleled in their enthusiasm for property hunting and their dedication to finding the right property for their clients. In the time we worked with them, we felt like they became part of our family, and we found the process of house hunting much more enjoyable. In particular we really appreciated Dave and Ronan’s exceptional knowledge of the property market in our area of interest, their availability at all hours, their support and willingness to talk through options at great length while we narrowed down our brief, and their receptiveness to feedback on suggested properties. When they put forward the off market house we ended up buying, they worked tirelessly to assist us with inspecting it several times, before making an offer and successfully exchanging contracts late on a Friday night. We are thrilled with our new home and would never have managed to find it and secure the purchase without their help.”
“We recently had the pleasure of engaging the services of BuyEast to assist in purchasing an investment property. The experience was completely satisfactory, and we were particularly impressed with the level of detailed information and due diligence provided to us during the process. Not only did this assist in reducing the time we needed to devote to the process, but importantly we found comfort in being able to bounce ideas and economic metrics with BuyEast. The advice we received was measured and reasonable.We would highly recommend using BuyEast and will certainly do so again in the future.”
“BuyEast offers the best service. Dealing with Mark and Nicky has been a pleasure. They found us a place in a couple of months and one which we would not have otherwise seen. Plus they negotiated a great deal before auction. I will be telling everyone how wonderful they are!”
“Mark & Nicky helped us buy our family home. We were just so impressed with their professionalism & passion for property. They helped us pick up the property before it even hit the market!! We have bought & sold property before - but we could not have done this without them. They make a great team & we would not hesitate to recommend them to others. Thanks for everything”
“Mark & Nicky are an incredibly effective team; their combined passion and local-market expertise has been invaluable. They helped us find many fantastic local properties, including some great off-market opportunities. They struck a good balance of enthusiasm without trying to influence us in any way and were very patient with our frequent changes in requirements and budget. When we needed to move fast on a pre-inspection property they helped us review contracts and strata reports the same day and kept very connected with the agent during the (very quick) sale. We could not have beat the competition to buy our beautiful home without them. They were with us every step of the way, answering our constant questions and even delivering the keys to us after settlement!In this highly competitive and dynamic Eastern-Suburbs market their services will give you the edge you need to secure the right property. ”
“BuyEast was such a great support for me purchasing my first property! For such a big decision in life they certainly were a great support. It was so great to know that there was a genuine approach to get me the best outcome. Not only that, having a team behind me with exceptional knowledge of the market.I am so happy with the outcome and the sale price that was achieved - couldn’t have done it by myself! So appreciative of everything you guys did for me and I really appreciated your friendly, confident approach. I would HIGHLY recommend anyone to BuyEast!! ”
“Patience. Empathy. Professionalism. Tenacity. Courage and determination. This team rocks.#keepcalmbecauseBuyEastrocks.”
“Although we’ve exchanged many thank you’s and congratulations I did want to take a moment, especially today to express how grateful we are for your patience, advice, experience, honesty and supreme service throughout the buying process. Without you two I don’t think we could have ever imagined to be the owners of a house of this calibre. As demanding and unreasonable as clients’ requirements might be you definitely work towards them and as a consequence achieve the most incredible outcomes. Dreams do come true and ours was certainly supported by the dream-team itself: BuyEastFurther, on a personal note from myself THANKYOU so very very much for making this a reality for my parents. Certainly as children we try to make them happy and proud but the joy on their faces today is a huge credit to you guys and for that I will be eternally grateful. ”
“Nicky & MarkThanks you for all your help to secure our new home! Your services were invaluable. We could not have done it without you. Thank You Thank You Thank You”
“THANKYOU so very much Nicky and Mark. Wouldn’t have been possible without your perseverance and dedication. Your service and expertise has exceeded our expectations and continues to do so. Not only will we be in touch until the settlement date but also for many years to come.”
““We engaged Mark Cadry of Buy East as our buyer’s agent as we were living on the south coast. We provided Mark with a brief of our needs and after viewing some 20 properties over a 3 month period, in what was a very hot Sydney market, we found what we were looking for at a good price. Mark was very diligent in his approach and helped provide us with an understanding of what represented good value.Mark was extremely professional in his approach and at no time did we feel pressured to buy and would have no hesitation in recommending Buy East.”
“We heard of Mark & Nicky via a friend of a friend. We’d been trying to purchase a property for 18months + and our circumstances had become more challenging given we were expecting our first child AND we’d just had notice served on our rental. We met with them to discuss our requirements and understand their services. They were super-friendly, knowledgeable and professional. We actually ended up finding a property ourselves that week but, owing to our lack of experience, workload and lack of time, we engaged Mark & Nicky to help us secure the property on our behalf. They acted swiftly and diligently. Holding our hands through the process, they devising & implementing a strategy to secure the property. It’s safe to say we would never have got the property if it wasn’t for Mark & Nicky and we believe they got us a great deal in a competitive market. We are thrilled with the outcome.”
“My husband and I were living overseas and so enlisted the help of Nicky and Mark to look for a home for us in Australia. Nicky and Mark informed of us of both on and off market opportunities, attended countless inspections on our behalf, and importantly for our situation, emailed us with detailed video inspections within hours of seeing a property. When we found the property we loved, the Cadry’s were quick to negotiate, and we secured the property two days after the first open house. We were extremely happy with the service offered by Nicky and Mark and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to those requiring assistance to find the perfect home.”
“Although extremely time poor, I was initially sceptical of the merits of engaging a buyer’s agent to assist in the purchase of my new home. However, Mark and Dave from BuyEast demonstrated the value of having committed and passionate professionals on your side. I was no longer having my time wasted by viewing properties that did not meet expectations as Mark and Dave were able to find and view properties both on and off-market and only show me those properties fitting my brief, which greatly reduced the stress of the whole experience. Mark’s negotiating skills were particularly impressive and he went above and beyond to negotiate and secure my property for a great price which I doubt I would have achieved had I been negotiating on my own behalf. I cannot recommend BuyEast more highly – through their excellent customer service, industry knowledge and contacts, purchasing my property was not the usual stressful and exhausting experience.”
“Simply put, if it wasn’t for Buyeast we would have given up on our dream of living in the east. After 5 years of looking with no luck, prices doubling and two children later we didn’t have the time, resources or deposit to keep looking. Other buyers agents told us we wouldn’t find a 3 bedroom semi in the eastern suburbs in our price range and that we would need to look elsewhere, however Buyeast were up for the challenge and genuinely cared about finding us our perfect home. Within a couple of weeks through the dedicated groundwork of Dave Petrini, they delivered a 5 bedroom semi in our desired location within our budget. Buyeast do what you don’t have the time and resources to do, keep on top of every house with relationships across all agents. A house that was out of our price range wouldn’t have received our consideration if it wasnt for Dave, following up with every property in our desired location. Then with a bit of luck and the savvy negotiating skills of Buyeast, we were able to secure our first home. Despite achieving their primary objective, Buyeast continued to offer comprehensive service, managing settlement, offering guidance through a trickier than usual legal process and even arranging tradesmen to help scope out potential renovations. They really did go the extra mile, and the value they achieved for us far outweighed their cost. We have no hesitation in recommending Buyeast.”
“Simply put, hiring Buy East to help us purchase a home was the best investment we could have made. We had hit rock bottom, we had already sold our home and had been gazumped by numerous sales agents. We brought on Buy East as we were desperate and my only regret is that we didn’t bring them on board sooner! Most people will agree, buying a property in Sydney is the most stressful experience and our nerves were absolutely frayed. Having Mark and Nicky on our side with their calming words and their expertise gave us much needed reassurance that we would exchange on a home within our 5 week deadline. Their inside knowledge of the eastern suburbs property market was fascinating and the exposure to the off market market proved that it’s not about what you know but who you know. Their persistence and expertise helped us secure our dream house that we would never been able to secure without their guidance. Even after exchange, they were on call whenever we had questions and still are. In this insanely competitive and hot market, buyers agents have gone from being a ‘nice to have’ to a ‘necessity’ and with their knowledge, experience and worth ethic, I personally can’t recommend Buy East enough.”
“I can highly recommend the outstanding services offered by BuyEast. As a busy professional with little knowledge about the property market, they were exceptionally helpful at every step in the process. From ensuring we were looking at the right properties, which matched the brief they helped us shape, right through to advice when signing the contract. They supplied a constant stream of detailed information about the available properties inspecting all of them and taking us through each property giving honest feedback. They never tired despite the seemingly endless queries and coped well with our high standards and multitude of issues until we found the perfect property. They stood with me during the bidding process and were tactically excellent on the night allowing us to purchase the property. I greatly appreciate their guidance and their ever smiling and friendly approach and look forward to using them again.”
“Well yes you certainly exceeded expectations. In terms of feedback where i thought you particularly added value was in:- sourcing eligible properties, on and off market- saving time by summarising the pros and cons for us- advising on home values- sending us comparables- navigating us through the practices of other real estate agents by your knowledge of the industry- writing excellent offer letters- advising on strategy- helping us to stay open mindedI thought you were both extremely attentive and always available. I felt like I was your most important client! I have told everyone about you.The positive energy you give out as a couple translates to the business relationship too. I believe people like that (be they agents, buyers or vendors) and homes like that find each other. Thanks again so much Nicky and Mark for helping us find our beautiful home. ”
“Working with Dave at BuyEast was more than we bargained for. We got more attention, more dedication and, eventually, more square metres than we could have imagined! We know that without Dave’s efforts - and the fact that everyone (vendors, agents etc) is drawn to his caring nature and Italian charm - we wouldn’t have bought our dream family home. We first viewed our home on Saturday and by Wednesday night it was ours. There’s no way that happens without Dave and his round the clock efforts to make sure it didn’t slip through our fingers. We can’t thank Dave and the BuyEast team enough. But we’ll keep trying!”
“Dear Nicky and MarkI want to thank you so much for finding me my ideal home. You even took my animals into consideration and you did it in record time. Besides this you went the extra mile to help me when I needed help which was not part of your contract.I honestly felt that you became my good friends.I am extremely grateful to you and will highly recommend your Service. I hope you will visit me in my new home when I am settled.Warm regards”
““Just sharing my experiences to help others in the same boat! We were looking to buy a home in the Eastern Suburbs for a while with no luck, we then enlisted the services of Mark Cadry & Nicky Cadry of BuyEast Sydney Buyers Agent and they were literally with us every step of the way (even though we changed our brief 20 times throughout).They always had lots of patience, came with us to endless on and off market properties and eventually helped us secure the property we bought with less than an hour left before the vendor was due to exchange, when we decided last minute that we wanted to place an offer.Their services were beyond amazing, all with a smile and always approachable.I would recommend them to anyone looking and really can’t say anything negative about their service.Dave Petrini Carli Skurnik Danna Willmott Goodman - you make a great team!””
“Our expectations were exceeded by Carli and Nicky. We were delighted by the property Carli and Nicky sourced off market by door knocking, after carefully understanding our needs. They also shielded us from much of the stress of negotiation and inspections and nothing was too much trouble. Highly recommended team!”
“Nicky and Carli were amazing. We found our forever home in 3 weeks and we couldn’t be happier. Everything was easy - from the inspections, to negotiations and all the due diligence. There is no way we could have done this without their help. They took all the pressure off us and were there every step of the way. Nothing was too hard and we never felt like one of many clients. The individual service, and understanding our needs, far exceeded our expectations. Nicky and Carli were an absolute pleasure to deal with and I would highly recommend the Buy East team to anyone wanting to use a buyers agent.”
“Dear Dave, Thank you so much for everything you’ve done these past 6 months. When we started this journey of finding a home for my family, I never imagined that we’d end up in a house where we can watch our kids grow up & Klas and I can grow old together. I feel so settled and content. I am looking forward to making this our own. Thanks again! ”
“Without doubt we would not of ended up with the home of our dreams without Martine from BuyEast. Tenacious and charming, she worked tirelessly on our behalf throughout the whole process and never gave up. This was our first time using a buyers agent and BuyEast completely smashed our expectations on what they can deliver. Martine and Mark were invaluable end to end....from the initial house hunting and deal brokering to supporting us through the sale of our current home.We would highly recommend BuyEast and can assure you getting them on board will be one of the best investments you’ll make during this often turbulent time. ”
“BuyEast were exceptional! Dave Petrini and Mark were one of five different buyers agents we met with and they stood out from the get go. BuyEast didn’t sugarcoat any of the info and Dave Petrini didn’t hesitate to say yes and, more importantly, to say no when we needed to hear it.During a market that was selling at 15-20% above asking price at the time, through the BuyEast network, we managed to purchase our beautiful home below asking price.Quite simply: We couldn’t have secured our home without BuyEast.”
“Ann and I had decided to downsize from our house about two years ago and we had been searching for suitable premises to which to move for about 18 months, unsuccessfully. It was at that time that Di Wilson of Ray White suggested that we should seek the aid of a buyer’s agent and recommended BuyEast with whom we contracted on 13 September 2018, and the agents who looked after us were Carli Skurnik and Martin Harvey.I must admit that my nature is to be questioning and always a little suspicious, but having met these two ladies and dealt with them for only a few weeks, any anxieties were quickly allayed, and I found them charming, never pushy, and highly efficient. They were also seemingly incredibly hard-working. They found us what we wanted in less than a month, and I do not think that we would have achieved this result without them.Both Ann and I would recommend them highly to anyone searching for a property and not having success by themselves.”
“Dear Dave,I’m writing this to express our gratitude for all your hard work in getting Cleo and myself our new home. From the beginning I felt we would work well together - I was right. Having been in real estate for many decades I was loathed to let anyone take over the reigns; I let go, you took over and we got the perfect result. Our check list was longer than most peoples I guess but that didn’t stop you from giving your all. It didn’t take you long to appreciate our needs and after the first 3 or 4 inspections you nailed it. Never wasting our time looking at properties just for the sake of it. Your general demeanour of caring politeness, expertise, punctuality and fun got us through with an exchange of contract on our perfect home. Cleo and I wish you and your team well. We will be recommending you to friends and family for a very long time.”
“Dear Mark and NickyWe would like to express our deepest thanks and appreciation, though words can’t really convey the full extent of gratitude felt. The deep market knowledge and wide connections you have built, has brought about for us a wonderful and rare opportunity. We absolutely believe that we have achieved the near impossible in finding our new home! Your professional advice and ability to make things happen with ease, is incredible and the value that adds cannot be overstated.Your patience and calm while we changed our minds many times is very much appreciated, as is the kind support you offered us over time.There is no mistaking that the Sydney market is very tough to navigate, Thank you from our family for helping us find such a special place...We look forward to having you over and working together again. ”
“My wife and I are currently located overseas and looking to move back to Sydney within the next couple of years but we wanted to secure a family home before moving back. We were recommended BuyEast by a friend and they did a fantastic job helping us secure a dream home. Mark and Cortney were amazing throughout the whole process and took much of the stress out of the home search and negotiation. Being located abroad we couldn’t have done it without them. We are delighted with our new home and would highly recommend BuyEast!!!”
“It’s not often we get the opportunity to recognise excellent service, so didn’t want to miss this opportunity to thank you for the fantastic journey that Oliver guided us through. Oliver went out of his way to ensure we were constantly reassured, worked tirelessly and very irregular hours to bring the deal to fruition on very favourable terms. He demonstrated cool judgement and drew from a wealth of experience and contacts that we otherwise would not have had access to. The entire process was painless and professional. Thank you for all the support. Until next time....”
“‘For potential buyers of property in the Eastern Suburbs of Sydney, who feel daunted by the prospect of searching for a suitable home in volatile real estate conditions, I would strongly recommend BuyEast to help. With his profound knowledge of the housing market and extensive contacts, Dave Petrini from BuyEast assisted me in finding a suitable two bedroom apartment at a very reasonable price within two weeks. Dave quickly learnt what my requirements were, even though these evolved during the period, searched the market, arranged inspections and constantly kept me informed of developments. Dave showed professionalism at all times and was instrumental in negotiating the price of my final selection to my satisfaction.”
“The fact of the matter is that we would not have bought a place if it wasn’t for the endless support, effort, communication and love received from Dave. Whilst there are challenges trying to buy a house from overseas, what I knew about Dave is that he loves a challenge! It took just under 1 year to finally find our place – but the level of commitment and excitement from Dave didn’t alter – from the first communication through the final one it was always knowledgeable, humorous and to the point. The video’s he provided us was just the icing on the cake. All in all – the sad part about finally buying a house is that I don’t get to speak to Dave as often as I did – which says everything about how happy we were with him and am starting to save more money so I buy another house through him!”
“We were hesitant in the investment of a buyers agent but were getting desperate having sold our apartment, been unsuccessful at an auction and needing to find a house prior to Christmas. We shouldn’t have worried! from the moment we signed up with Dave Petrini and Ronan Chastain it was clear we were in great hands. Dave and Ronan worked tirelessly and left no stone unturned in the search for our home. They were contactable day and night, and were in contact several times a day from the day we signed. They were both always full of positivity and energy! From sending us videos of houses, arranging and attending building inspections and visiting council in person to get questions we had answered. Dave and Ronan ended up securing a property for us prior to auction that was better than anything we had seen, in a nicer area than we were looking at. They were able to align our settlements dates and have made a very stressful situation an enjoyable process. We still can’t quite believe the house is ours, it really is our dream home that we have no doubt we wouldn’t have secured without the expertise of Ronan and Dave and we can’t wait to spend many happy years there! We wouldn’t hesitate recommending Dave and Ronan, their contacts and relationships in the industry are second to none and they clearly love what they do! ”
“Our experience with BuyEast reflects everything others have said. Mark and Cortney were more like knowledgeable friends than service providers. They both worked tirelessly for us – and we felt like we were their only client most of the time, such was their dedication to our search. Their deep knowledge of the Eastern Suburbs property market and respect from the agents working this market really does give their clients an advantage and level the playing field. The BuyEast team are repeat players in a market that can otherwise be highly transactional. They use their relationships to deliver for their clients – in our case an off market off-the-plan semi being built by one of the best local developers that we would never have seen without BuyEast, let alone secured within our budget. Mark and Cortney took the time to listen to us – to help us express what we really wanted – and showed us houses that helped us refine what we really valued. And in the end they delivered everything and more. As a measure of how closely they work with their clients both Suzana and I felt a tinge of sadness when we realised that with exchange came the end of our Saturday morning viewings and daily calls with Mark and Cortney. Thank you both for all you did – and see you in 6 months for completion when the build is finished. Can’t wait to share the unveiling with you both! ”
“We were so lucky to work with Cortney from BuyEast. She went above and beyond our expectations to deliver a fantastic service and results - our first home!! Cortney worked around the clock for us (even on Sunday nights) and took the time to talk us through all matter of legal and property questions we had, making us feel at ease through the entire process from start to finish. I can’t say thank you enough for helping us secure such a fantastic first property!”
“Dave Petrini and Cortney Bowen helped me buy a house recently in Bondi. We just clicked immediately. They were really focused on what I wanted. Dave and Cortney were always available, always helpful and always represented my interests. I’m particular, indecisive and a bad communicator and still they helped me find a place! In short: recommended”
“We had been looking for years for our first home. We wanted to find the right house at the right price. Eventually we appointed a Buyer’s Agent. The one we selected said all the right things but after 6 months of watching prices rise and being shown very few properties we appointed our second Buyer’s Agent. Again, little activity. It was the right time for us to buy and we needed to see properties. We heard Ronan and Pep were full of energy. We appointed them and Immediately options came flooding in. Just over a week later they found us the right house at a great price and they jumped all over it. They also had great ideas and all the right contacts to turn it into our dream home. If you want action and outcomes, appoint Ronan and Pep”
“Mark and Will make the impossible task of finding your dream home in the East possible. After months of searching and disappointing experiences house hunting we spoke with Mark and Will on a Thursday a few months ago in February. Less than 10 days later we had found our unicorn, a property that was off market in our preferred suburb with more space than we had though achievable and within our price range. They had listened to both our needs and found our perfect compromise and we couldn’t be happier to have settled today. Thanks guys for making the impossible possible. To please two toddlers, a tween, a teen, two puppies and Mum & Dad is an impressive accomplishment in anyone’s books. Thank you. ”
“Mark, Will and the entire team have been a dream to work with. They understood our needs and wants perfectly. This helped them deliver a service and an outcome that has resulted in the purchase of (what will be after the reno), our dream home. Thank you so much for all your efforts.”
““The prospect of purchasing a property in an unfamiliar area, within an unprecedentedly strong market, was a daunting one. We engaged the services of BuyEast when numerous business associates recommended Mark and his team. This is the best personal and financial decision we could have made.In just over a month of our initial meeting, Mark, Kim and Jess facilitated the purchase of our new family home. Having ascertained our requirements, the team located an off market property that exceeded all our expectations, for an unanticipatedly great price.The team at BuyEast are professional, informative, and accomplished - with unsurpassed knowledge of the market and expert negotiators. We are eternally grateful for all they’ve done for us and would wholeheartedly recommend their services to all looking to buy property in the east.””
“We highly recommend using Ronan and Chris from BuyEast Buyers Agency. From the moment we met, we felt so comfortable with them. They took away all of the stress and made the process so smooth and easy. Ronan and Chris were always available anytime we needed them. They went above and beyond to find us our dream home. In such a competitive market, we were so amazed we were able to find our perfect house in the perfect location”
“Ronan worked tirelessly to find me my dream home in Bronte. They go above and beyond to get results, including driving me to the bank and real estate office to ensure we got out offer accepted before the property went to market. I saw more exclusive properties in 1 month with Ronan than i had on my previous 2 years of searching. I would recommend BuyEast to anyone looking to buy a new home - especially in this super competitive market!”
“After years of property hunting, we finally found success with the team at Buy East. Mark & Will took the time to really understand our search criteria and get to know our family. Buy East provided us with opportunities and private inspections that we would not have had access to ourselves. They have a deep knowledge of the property market and excellent relationships across the industry. Our perfect home presented as an off market opportunity which they assisted us to move quickly on. They negotiated brilliantly on our behalf and guided us through the process of purchasing from offer right through to final exchange. Mark and Will reduced the stress involved in finding our family home and shared our joy when it became ours. We have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Buy East and just wish we involved them earlier in our search.”
“Our experience with BuyEast was excellent and Will definitely helped secure our dream home quickly after an 18-month fruitless search. Will was honest, flexible, supportive and works hard on your behalf to help navigate this competitive market. He facilitated viewings on properties pre-market, liaised with realtors to gain further information on the competition, is a shrewd auction veteran and helped greatly with the due diligence where his building background is a bonus. Will definitely made the whole process less stressful and highly recommend him.”
“Will and the team at BuyEast were fantastic from the very beginning. They took the time to understand everything we were looking for and were transparent and open about expectations etc. Will then commenced the search and was responsive to all our questions even after hours. He understood our needs and went to see places for us first which saved us a lot of time. Even in this competitive environment he was able to find us our perfect home off market in about 4 weeks and definitely saved us time, money and stress! The whole process was seamless and we secured our home a day after inspecting including building inspection etc. We highly recommend Will and are so happy with the process and the outcome.”
