People sell their properties for a variety of reasons; I’m the catalyst to reduce the stress and get my clients the best possible results.

Knowledge of the Residential Tenancies Act 1986 and an ability to communicate legally and effectively with tenants are key attributes that ensure I get tenants onside through the marketing program.

Having personally bought, refurbished, built, sold and invested in property, I have accumulated over 30 years of experience in residential and investment property – houses, units, blocks of flats and commercial. With this wealth of knowledge, I understand how Investors think and how to effectively present the features and benefits of your property to best advantage.

Over the years I have built a large database of Investors who are keen to receive my listings; and that resource is available to my Vendor clients.

Much of the complimentary feedback I receive tells me that both Vendors and Buyers alike respect my unique approach; with many thinking of me more as a property consultant than a salesperson. That said I produce the results – a happy buyer and an ecstatic seller.

Should you be considering the sale of an investment property and want my skills working for you, call me.

“John May shines with integrity, professionalism, and sales skill. During the last 10 years he has actively supported me in the building of my property portfolio.
