In the best of hands

I decided to ask Matt to sell my house after he did such a good job selling my mother's house earlier this year. Matt has a fantastic personality and I felt very comfortable that I was in the best of hands. Matt wasn't phased by any of my multitude of questions and took it in good humour when removalists turned up at the same time as the photographer. I always felt like I was informed about the progress of the campaign and that nothing was a problem. What started out as an auction turned into a 1 week campaign when, thanks to Matt, I was offered what I was hoping to get for the house. Matt has a fantastic team working for him and I can't recommend them highly enough.

Got the job done!

Matt has a lot of experience selling property in our suburb, and is also an active contributor to the community (including sponsoring my son's rugby club). We selected Matt as we had originally bought the house from him 13 years ago.

Matt was extremely professional, kept in contact regularly so that we felt fully informed throughout the process and was honest and transparent at all times. He was realistic yet ambitious in his pricing and strategy and he assisted us with referrals to experts to assist throughout the process, including an excellent auctioneer. Ultimately he achieved an end result that everyone was very happy with.

I'd have no hesitation in recommending Matt to sell property in the Collaroy and surrounding area.

Trustworthy and down to earth

Geoff provided exceptional service to us as buyers. He was honest and at no point did we feel like we were being sold on something. He checked in weekly through the whole settlement period for nothing more than to let us know he was there if we needed to discuss anything. Geoff is the real deal. No nonsense, just friendly host service.

Fantastic agent who’s honest & reliable.

Geoff sold my unit during ‘Covid’ 1st open home. Speechless! Was expecting a hard slog and potential for price reduction in trying times. Very happy with the result and Geoff’s fantastic communication.

Testimonial from Nick
Honest, knowledgeable and professional

I had been speaking with Stephen long before we listed my property. This was as a result of Stephens advice not to list straight away due to his market knowledge to provide the best outcome. Once he recommended listing at the best possible time, he worked around the clock to to get us online as quickly as possible and kept me completely in the loop everyday outlining the progress he has made and when we expect everything to be completed and ready to launch. Once online, Stephen then went to work, his experience in the market gave us a huge advantage to produce the best offer. Making strategic changes week by week to counter the fluctuations of the market. I can’t be more pleased with the result of my sale price. I’m confident Steve left no stone unturned and that I wouldn’t have gotten a better outcome with any other agent. Thank you Stephen and your team at Doyle Spillane Dee Why.

Overall Performance

Despite the tough times we are all living in, I found dealing with Geoff made my life a whole lot easier when it came to managing all the open houses and reporting back results the same day...

Fortunately, I have known Geoff for many years and still play Rep touch footy so I knew I could reply on him for his approach and professionalism in getting the job done...

I would certainly recommend him to anyone wanting to sell their house.

We've been fortunate to deal with Matt as buyers and sellers, and he's been fantastic each and every time. He is the most knowledgeable and professional REA we've every dealt with.

He Did It Again!

Once again we have found Matt to be professional but personal at the same time. Our property sale was a challenging one, although it has a lot of potential for a purchaser with vision - and Matt was able to find such a person.

We felt well supported and informed through the whole sale process. We had pulled the auction of the property at the start of the COVID lockdown in March, and returned it to the market, at Matt's suggestion in July for a quick, successful campaign.

We would highly recommend Matt, Steven and the team at Doyle Spillane.

Happy Customers

We originally bought our home from Matt 8 years ago so when it came time to sell we knew exactly who to go to. Matt brought such enthusiasm and professionalism to the whole process, and he and his team were so easy to deal with - they made what can be a very challenging time for vendors as seamless as possible. Thanks again Matt and all of the team at Doyle Spillane!

Organised, Efficient, Easy-Going

This is the second time that I have worked with Matt as he also worked on the sale of my mother's apartment in 2018. He is a really lovely guy with a pleasant, easy-going, no-pressure attitude which I value so highly when it comes to the stressful task of selling one's home. He is super-experienced and knowledgeable. He advised me well in the prep of my property and the timing of the campaign and handled the negotiations with bidders so easily and calmly. He is honest and fair-minded and wants to to the right thing by vendors and buyers. I highly recommend him!

Transparent and professional experience

Matt was fantastic to work with. He was very clear and transparent about the process he runs upfront and then stuck to the process when the rubber hit the road. He was a fantastic communicator and was quick to share his market insights and additional considerations relevant to making a buy decision.

I can highly recommend working with Matt as a buyer.

Stephen has great knowledge of the market in Dee Why, and his level of professionalism and commitment is second to none. We followed his recommendations and the sale campaign attracted various groups to inspect our apartment - he arranged all the details with our tenant (even after hours) for a smooth process. Thanks again Stephen, we wish you all the best! Hopefully we will hear from you when you are next in Qld. Cheers, Celo & Gabi

Mission Success

Geoff is a personable and professional agent. He answered all my silly questions and I felt, he fought in my corner, which is the first time for me in over a year. It’s a disheartening position being a single, bottom rung first home buyer and it became very obvious very quickly that Geoff was an exception to the rule.

Comparatively, the process was a simple one and Geoff was great the whole way through.

Achieved pleasing result

Geoff was great, worked really hard at a difficult time due to Covid restrictions to show the property to as many people as possible. Kept me regularly informed with feedback from the inspections. Followed right through the overall process so the settlement was then very easy. Job well done !

We were selling the very much loved unit of my sister-in-law who had tragically passed away

It was a very sad and difficult time for us emotionally so we needed the sale to go as smoothly as possible. We lived 2 hours away and that complicated matters. Geoff was wonderful always keeping in touch, giving us updates. We didn't have to worry about anything, he was so professional, personable, and obviously knew the market. We could not have asked for better. Thanks Geoff.

One purchase, two sales and some great guidance and advice

We first met Matt in 2004 when we sought Doyle Spillane's help in finding a home on the Northern Beaches. Having purchased our first home via Doyle Spillane back then we remained in contact and he was our first choice when we needed to sell. In the last three months he has successfully sold two properties for us in a challenging market, realising great prices for both. Additionally he provided guidance and advice in the negotiations for our next property in the Southern Highlands using his network of contacts. If you are buying or selling on the Northern Beaches, Matt and his team are the best game in town without doubt.

If your selling property in Collaroy you must talk to Matt

Matt is the ultimate professional, from the first meeting, through the exchange of contact process and onto settlement He walks the talk, has an incredibly positive attitude and I would say is one of the most professional in his field.

As a retired real estate agent, if you’re selling property in the Collaroy area and you don’t talk to Matt, your mad.

The industry could use more like him.

In difficult times you need an expert

Selling a deceased estate always comes with challenges, we had planned to sell our mum and dad's home in April, we hadn't planned on COVID 19. Matt naturally had to work harder, with private viewings, video listings etc and his expertise, knowledge of the market, the area and the very special street shone through. Matt is honest, gives good advice in preparing a home for sale and has the negotiating skills needed to get the right result in a difficult market. We would have no hesitation in recommending Matt to family and friends.

Fantastic result in an uncertain environment

Matt had already sold a property for us previously and did an outstanding job, achieving a price we were very happy with. When it came to sell again, we chose Matt without hesitation. Matt is reliable, knowledgable, honest and professional and we were very pleased with the outcome of both sales. We would highly recommend Matt and his entire team at Doyle Spillane.

Engage him with confidence

We have worked with Matt on two occasions in the last 7 years, when we first bought our house thru him in Collaroy and again when we engaged his services to help us sell.

Most agents in any given area have good knowledge of their respective markets, but we always felt that Matt had our best interests at heart.

With his assistance (and some good market timing) we secured the price we were hoping for, yet with Covid-19 looming as we sold, his advice was invaluable.

Second time around with Matt

I have worked with Matt as both buyer and seller over a 15 year period and his professionalism and integrity is why he will be selling our next property as well. He has provided sound guidance to me and other members of my family and injects a reassuring sense of realism into what can be a very stressful process. If you are selling on the Northern Beaches, he and his team are who you should be talking to.

The agent you want!

Stephen was brilliant. From our first telephone conversation where he was completely engaged, to the first meeting where he gave us some sound, honest, fair advice about what we needed to do and how to get the sale we wanted. His friendly, approachable, straight talking nature was key. As he would say he doesn't sugar coat anything, he tells it straight, which was so refreshing. He works damn hard at all hours. He kept us fully informed through out the whole process and was always available to answer any question. We couldn't be happier with the service Stephen provided. He, Matt and Mel are who you want when selling your property.

Great from start to finish

We met Stephen at an open home a few months ago. He kept in touch with us whenever an apartment in my block was for sale as I was interested in selling my apartment when the time was right. He ended up finding an off market purchaser to buy our apartment. It was very quick and smooth through out the whole time. We are very happy.
