Chris of Prime Estate has done an outstanding job for myself and young family. We found Chris online and contacted him via his web site. His reply was prompt and professional. Chris discussed our needs and wants while offering great advice for the first home buyer. Once everything was set, it was in Chris' hands and we didn't have to lift a finger. Chris found homes that met our criteria and e-mailed us promising properties with lots of digital images. Communication wasn't limited in any way, all we had to do was pick up the phone or send off an e-mail if we wanted to talk to Chris. Once a property was decided on, Chris carried out the whole process from inspection, through the negotiations to settling. My wife and I just sat back and it all happened for us stress free. I never thought I'd buy a house in Victoria from the comfort of my home in the N.T, but we did, which made the move 'down south' so much easier.

"Chris and Martine made the process of buying our first investment property so easy I would highly recommend them. From the initial meeting with Chris we were put at ease and all was explained in plain English. Our options were discussed with recommendations and reasons to go certain ways. Once we decided to go for it Martine and Chris did all the legwork based on the agreed brief and properties began to come through to us. They did the viewings and then recommended on proceeding with it or not based on a thorough property assessment. Then to auction where Martine nailed it and got us the property for less than we were prepared to pay - a great result. The package was complete with recommended solicitors and PrimeEstate managing the property and finding our first tenant once completion went through. Easy."

Integrity, communication and results, if this is what you’re looking for in an agent then Martine and the Prime Estate team should seriously be considered.

I would like to take this opportunity to thank Chris at Prime Estate Buyers Agent for their assistance in helping me buy my first house.

As a first home buyer I found the whole task of searching, negotiating and dealing with real estate agents extremely daunting. Luckily I came across Chris at Prime Estate Buyers Agent. Chris¹s approachable and professional attitude made the entire process enjoyable and easy, which I never thought I would be able to say.

Within weeks of first speaking to Chris about my requirements I was inspecting a property that not only met my expectations but greatly exceed them and the best thing was that it was under my planned budget. I successful purchased that property and through Chris¹s skills in negotiation I was able to save thousands!

After my success using Prime Estate Buyers Agents I referred a friend and they were treated to the same exceptional results as me. For this reason I can not speak highly enough of the services offered by Chris and Prime Estate Buyers Agents. I defiantly will be talking to Chris again when it comes time to buying another property.

As a first time buyer with no previous experience in the property market its been a real learning curve for me and initially I thought the whole process would be quiet intimidating and stressful. But luckily I had the foresight to secure Prime Real Estates services prior to purchasing my first property to assist me through the whole process. This has meant that the whole experience of researching, negotiating and buying my first property has been a very enjoyable, informative, rewarding.  I found your services to be highly professional, flexible and informative and I especially appreciated your ability to customise your services to my exact requirements and budget. I feel secure knowing that I have had the best possible advice, services and outcome and have no hesitation in recommending you to anyone.  The costs of your services I think are minimal when you consider the size of the final investment and the security and peace of mind that you provide each client. I would urge anyone (especially first time buyers) to use your services to avoid any costly and/or uneducated mistakes. Thanks again for all you help and support over the last few months it was much appreciated and I will certainly use your services again in the future.

We were introduced to Prime Estate through personal recommendation. Our initial communications with Chris made us feel that he understood our needs and had the experience and professionalism to fulfil them. These impressions were confirmed once we began working with Martine on our property search. Her expert knowledge, discerning eye and negotiating strength gave us confidence in navigating a whirlwind market and helped us source and secure the property we wanted, within budget and with a minimum of fuss. We are profoundly grateful to Chris and Martine for their expertise, guidance and service excellence, and strongly recommend Prime Estate as a leader in buyer advocacy.

Now that the purchase of our property is completed, I am writing to thank you for the work you did on our behalf. It was with considerable trepidation that Tina and I approached this purchase, so we found your services of great value. Firstly, your contacts and your data base vastly widened the potential number of properties for us to examine, which greatly increased the chances of success.

Secondly, your experience in the field of Real Estate, an area in which Tina and I were embarrassingly deficient, meant that we had a 'pro' in our corner during a very difficult time. Thirdly, your negotiating skills, (in this case considerably better than the Estate Agent we were dealing with), meant that the money you saved us was a lot more than your fee.

Lastly, the professional manner in which you handled all of our dealings, gave Tina and I a sense of confidence that we would surely not have had if we had been alone. It made an extremely stressful situation much more bearable. I sincerely hope that the whole concept of Buyers having their own Buyer's Agent to act in the buyers' best interests is something which gains wider acceptance. We thank you again for all your efforts on our behalf, and we wish you every success in this personally rewarding endeavour.

"Chris quickly refined our needs and matched us with an opportunity after the first phone call. A win win for all concerned without the real estate hype. We'll be using his services again"

As a developer I found Prime Estate¹s service irreplaceable. Chris provided me with unbiassed information on many areas within Melbourne, providing detailed reports on comparable sales and proposed re-sale values.

On a recent purchase for a future development site, Chris¹s professional strategy at the auction provided an excellent purchase price. One that I know I definitely would not have achieved.

I will be recommending Prime Estates details to friends and colleagues who require an excellent service when looking to invest / develop property or purchase their own homes.

"We wouldn't have pulled off the 'calm and collected' approach if it wasn't for Chris. If it hadn't been for him, I would have called the real estate agent daily, revealing my emotional attachment to the property. They in turn would definitely have had the "upper hand". Instead, I got to call Chris daily and he provided me with the reassurance I needed. It's an ideal situation. You're able to talk frankly and openly to Chris but the real estate agents only see a professional and objective representative".

"Only days before we inspected our eventual home, I told Chris about a street we would love to live in. Two days later he rang with a property for private sale on that very street. I know for a fact that we would never have noticed the advertisement for this home. It wasn't on any internet site nor was it in any of the industry magazines or books. How grateful we are that we now own this home on the very street we dreamt of living in!

Finally had my first night in the apartment last night (moving in delayed by the Tassie floods).  It is fabulous, very quiet and restful and easily walkable from work.  Thanks so much for your assistance, it made the transaction so very easy.  Account paid today.

My sister and I had been talking about purchasing an investment property for several years, but with busy lives, we kept putting it off. Occasionally we would go and inspect properties, but never had the time to follow up any further.

We retained Chris' services in November 2004, and within 6 weeks, he had found an ideal property for us to purchase as our first investment property. Over that 6 week period, Chris met with us to discuss what we were looking for, what area, and most importantly, what price range we were looking at. Chris then inspected various properties on our behalf, and prepared a weekly report, advising us what properties he had seen and why he had discounted them for not meeting our requirements. Chris then arranged for several inspections of the property he recommended to us, represented us in all discussions and negotiations with the selling agent, provided us with the relevant paperwork we needed to proceed with the purchase and attended the meeting to sign the initial sale documents. He has also made himself available to us following the purchase to answer any questions we have had.
We have found Chris' services and knowledge to be invaluable to us, and his attitude has at all times been highly professional. Chris not only saved us thousands of dollars, but also many hours of our time - without Chris doing the legwork for us, we would probably still only be talking about starting our investment portfolio.

We would have no hesitation in recommending Chris to anyone who is considering purchasing a property, either to live in or as an investment.

"Our employment of Prime Estate Buyers Agent (PEBA) to assist us in purchasing a property was one of the best decisions we have made all year. These guys really understood the market space we were looking to invest in. The service they offered was professional, friendly and most importantly, trustworthy. At no stage did PEBA push their own agenda, providing us with total assurance that our interests were their primary concern. Their willingness to fit in with our busy lifestyle was a bonus and therefore I can highly recommend their services to anyone."

"My wife and I are quite satisfied with the results, thanks to your advice and assistance. Your approach has been very professional in every respect and I have no hesitation in recommending your service to anyone seeking real estate property for themselves or for an investment. Good Luck and Best wishes for your future projects."

Chris quickly refined our needs and matched us with an opportunity after the first phone call. It was a win/win for all concerned, and without the real estate hype. We'll be using his services again.
