Who is the best real estate agent in Burnside?
The best fit is the person whose relevant experience, plan and communication suit your property and circumstances. Meet more than one salesperson if that helps you decide, and ask each to explain the evidence behind their appraisal and campaign recommendation.
Start with the experience that matters to you
Our salespeople bring different backgrounds to the conversation. Their full profiles provide the detail; use these starting points to decide who you would like to meet.

Questions for your first meeting
- Which recent sales are relevant to my home, and why?
- What would you do before launch, and what spending is worth discussing?
- Why do you recommend this sale method and marketing plan?
- Who will handle enquiries, viewings, reporting and negotiation?
- How often will we talk, and how will we decide whether the campaign needs adjusting?
- What are the fees, agreed advertising costs and agency-agreement terms?
A persuasive appraisal should explain its assumptions and limitations. A suggested price, award or one campaign result is not a guarantee for your sale. Ask for examples and references that are relevant to the work you need.
Meet the wider team
The complete Burnside directory also includes leadership and support colleagues. They have different roles; the salesperson you appoint should make clear who will be involved in your campaign.
