Thank you to Matt and his team at Doyle Spillane.

An exceptional level of service where experience did really make a difference. The communication was always open and up to date. Passionate and always optimistic in delivering the sale.

Testimonial from Donald Greentree
Perfect sales agent.

Geoff’s professionalism and expert knowledge of the Real Estate Market saw our property sell for the best price we could obtain in the current market conditions. Geoff kept us informed of developments and progress of open houses throughout the advertising period. I would highly recommend Geoff to sell any property.

Testimonial from Sinan Koray  & Brenda Ryan
We chose Matt over all others because we trusted his experience, down to earth approach and market knowledge.

He is open and trustworthy. He gave us great ideas how to present and market our property. A few hiccups were handled effectively with his help. During the campaign he put in 100% keeping us up to date and following interested parties. In a market that was slowing down, he got us what we wanted. His experience paid off in creating a win-win-win. We are happy to recommend him.

Testimonial from Nathan Baker
Stephen was a great agent to have as he always kept me up to date with everything that was going on and would always answer or return phone calls with any questions I had.

Made the process a breeze

Nathan Baker
Understands the property market very well; Good open home strategy to start with - Avoided the peak hour of 10:00 - 12:00 windows - The property would not be in a position to complete with other properties for the inspectors if just viewed from advertisements without physically on site.

Very good understanding of the process and knew exactly at which point to pursue and push with open communications to keep things moving forward.

It would be a blessing for a vendor to have an agent like Michael not only for good selling price but also the quick turnaround; Also good for a buyer like myself to be able to have the process settled quickly.

Testimonial from Gerard and Sarah
Dear Matt and team, Sarah and I would like to thank you for helping us sell our home.

We have sold numerous properties in the last 20 years and were pleasantly surprised at the level of professionalism, the amount of effort you put in to keep us informed of progress and the dedication you had towards gaining us the best price for our property.

We found you very supportive throughout.

We are pleased to recommend you and your team to anyone looking for a quality agent who is easy to deal with.

Testimonial from Matthew Fleming
Highly Recommended.

We have known Geoff for a number of years as Real Estate Agent working in our local area having sold our parent's house some years ago and now more recently we have purchased a high quality property listed with Geoff who certainly assisted us in negotiating a price to meet both his client's and our expectations acting with integrity and professionalism at all times. We have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Geoff to sell our property, if and when required, and during our recent purchase it was natural for us to gravitate to Geoff to source a property due to his presence in the local market.

Matthew Fleming
Testimonial from Glen Messenger
Matt was fantastic to deal with.

Not only does he know his clients and the market very well, he makes the experience of purchasing and selling real estate human. He makes it as seamless and transparent as possible.

Allan Conroy
Testimonial from Peter & Gretel
From our first contact with Matt, and this was at properties we viewed prior to our purchase, he impressed with his professionalism, communication and follow up.

During the process of purchasing our unit when you are in constant contact, right from the outset he provided sound guidance and advice, demonstrating the ability to fairly balance the needs of the buyer and the seller. For local expertise and person who you can trust, Matt is highly recommended.

Matt, Stephen and the team at Doyle Spillane are a pleasure to work with.

Testimonial from Rob & Amanda Smerdon
Excellent Agent.

We purchased our house through Matt and our positive dealings with him led us to sell it with him. That decision was fully justified through the result he achieved, sound advice, open and honest communication and excellent negotiation skills. If are buying or selling on the Northern Beaches Matt Morley is the agent you are looking for.

Rob & Amanda Smerdon
Testimonial from Judy & Apryl
Stephen was great with communication, made us feel comfortable and explained everything through out the sale!

Didn’t leave us feeling worried. Very easy to chat with and felt like we could contact him about even the smallest detail! Highly recommended!

Testimonial from Sharon Wells
Great Agent.

From the beginning of the sale of my property Geoff always made sure I knew exactly what was happening with open inspections, prospective buyers and any changes in the marketplace that could potentially impact the sale price. The whole process went very smoothly and I am very happy with the service Geoff provided.

Sharon Wells
Testimonial from  Phil Lane
Great agent to deal with.

Brought my unit from Geoff, sold my unit with Geoff. Seems a very familiar story on the Northern Beach. Got to be doing something right.

Phil Lane
Testimonial from Felicity Hurt
I couldn't be happier with the result.

The price I received far out weighted my expectations. Thank you Matt, thank you Vic (Auctioneer) and the Doyle Spillane team involved. Matt provided honest, professional and open communication at all times and we received an overwhelming result.

Felicity Hurt
Testimonial from Rachel Hamlen
Great balanced approach.

Whilst I understand that agents work primarily for the vendor, Geoff is a true professional who also seems to derive great satisfaction from matching the property to the buyer. I was purchasing my first property in Australia and as such had a great deal to learn. Geoff was available, helpful and spelled out my options, walking me through an intimidating process and being available to answer my questions (and repeat himself numerous times!). Geoff wears two hats as both an agent and as the Director of his agency; it is clear to me he has achieved this through his excellent reputation and professionalism throughout his career. In this capacity, he talked me through another property on the agency's books with another agent, without bias. I believe he knew I would buy the one I did but let me reach the decision by myself. He is kind, patient and honest and has renewed my faith in the real estate profession. If I am ever to sell (unlikely!) I will be calling Geoff first.

Rachel Hamlen
Testimonial from Yanling Tao
Best agent ever!

We spent only one day to settle the deal, two days to sign the contract because I was flying overseas on the week after. Thanks to Geoff! He was soooo helpful, and very fast responding. He always kept me in the loop, was even up early at 7am to address me a call, plus it was a Saturday! Highly recommend agent to everyone and he is definitely the one to go if u r looking for a house in the Northern Beaches.

Testimonial from Natalie Cleary
Knows his stuff!

Matt Morley gave me plenty of his time – discussing, recommending, encouraging – and was always on time to greet viewers cheerfully and personally. His team of co-workers and suggested tradesmen all made the process of preparing and selling my home much easier. Thanks again Matt for all your hard work.

Natalie Cleary
Testimonial from Allen Flaherty
Job well done.

Matt was extremely helpful and professional in helping us secure our property. His assistance didn't end with the sale as he provided information and support right through until settlement. Would highly recommend him.

Allen Flaherty
Testimonial from Jeanette Peter
Matt provided great expertise and knowledge when we were thinking of selling in 6 months time and then blitzed it for us when we decided to sell 2 weeks later.

Knows his market, communicates constantly, delightful team of Steve and Mel, continual follow up. As said, highly recommend!

Jeanette Peter
Testimonial from Greg
This is the second time I have used Matt and his team of Stephen and Melanie.

A great price was achieved within a week of putting the property on the market.

Matt and his team communicated effectively with me through-out the sale process without being intrusive.

I am happy to recommend Matt and his team very highly.

Greg
Testimonial from Dean Somerville
Great agent.

Couldn't recommend Geoff highly enough, he was able to negotiate full asking price before the Ist open for inspection and then communicated quickly and effectively throughout the whole process.

Have known him for a number of years and he has always maintained a friendly, yet high level of professionalism.

Dean Somerville
Testimonial from John & Lesley Bekis

Testimonial from Rod Vallim
Transparency.

It was great working with Geoff, we had such a great experience buying our house through him that we decided selling it too. Words that come to mind to describe the experience are transparency, communication, credibility, trustworthy, respect, results!

Rod Vallim
Testimonial from Kerrie Doherty
No.

1 Seller. From the moment I met Geoff I knew I wanted him to be in control of selling my property. I found Geoff to be totally open about the market and advised that my price expectations were above the market value, but we tried. The end result was the price was exactly in the range Geoff advised I would get. Geoff was always available for me to speak with and even found new accommodation for my tenants which I was really grateful as they have been terrific tenants. My experience in the past for selling has been painful, it was a pleasure selling with Geoff at the helm.

Kerrie Doherty
Testimonial from Kerry McConaghy

Testimonial from Brett and Pip
Matt and his team are fantastic, their experience and expertise in Real Estate showed the more you dealt with them.

He kept us informed through the whole process of selling our unit. When trying to decide which Realestate agent to go with was a nightmare, friends recommending this agent or that agent, speaking to them and listening to them. It was difficult decision, but once I meet Matt he stood out. I knew he sold the unit next to me. But he is such a genuine guy, I felt confident with him the whole way through the process. Matt knows the market and how to deal with the changing market to get you the very best price. He sold our unit after three open days, which meant we didn't have to go through the stress of an auction. He got us more than the price we wanted. Matt comes highly recommended by Pip and myself. Their are enough stars to click on for Matt, there should be more than five stars he deserves heaps more.

Testimonial from Peter Hill
Very happy with Geoff.

We are glad to be able to rate Geoff very highly. He has an excellent knowledge of the real estate market in Dee Why and the Northern Beaches, and was able to give us focussed and accurate advice on the sale prospects for our property. His advice on marketing strategy and on negotiations with the eventual purchaser was first rate. We were able to achieve an excellent result in comparison with other similar properties. It is always an advantage to deal with an agent who has a feel for the locality. We would highly recommend Geoff if selling a property. We have received excellent service from Doyle Spillane over the years, and our experience with Geoff was certainly up to our expectations.

Peter Hill
Testimonial from Patricia Leighton
I have been involved with the sale of a previous property with Geoff and had no hesitation in contacting him for the sale of this property.

Being some years ago this time I needed to be dealing with a calm, professional and stress free agent who encouraged me to relax and all would be well. I would certainly recommend Geoff to any prospective seller. Thank you Geoff.

Patricia Leighton
Testimonial from Rachel Pickering
Excellent service, highly recommend!

Geoff recently sold our unit - the whole process was quick and easy, we felt totally comfortable working with Geoff and the unit sold off the first open in only a few weeks at a great price! The whole Doyle Spillane Dee Why team are extremely helpful and friendly, we would highly recommend them for buying or selling your property!

Rachel Pickering

Bill & Justine Evans
Testimonial from Robyn Valentine
The right agent for us.

We just recently purchased a (very) small unit, and our agent was Geoff Harris from Doyle Spillane. Geoff was very easy to deal with and I felt, took our concerns on. He was always available for calls and emails, leaving me feeling just as important as someone buying in the high-end. Finding the right property and then moving into negotiation etc is a very stressful and emotional time, and Geoff was always supportive, polite and informative, and for this I am grateful. The agency is not a franchise of a large enterprise, and I'm glad of this as Geoff really knows the area well. If we need another agent in the area, he will be the first we call.

Robyn Valentine
Testimonial from Robert Pritchard
A Pleasure to Deal With.

Geoff is hard working and easy to deal with, and he's also a genuinely nice guy. Over the course of around 6 months of house hunting we'd had regular contact with a couple of other agents and dealing with Geoff was a refreshing change - he was honest, communicated with us regularly and is someone we were more than happy to buy from in the end.

Robert Pritchard
Testimonial from Dunja & Tony Gilda
Exceptional.

Matt is the most professional real estate agent I have ever dealt with. We have bought and sold many homes over the years, and on this occassion, we were selling my elderly parents' unit, which in itself had complications. Matt's patience and willingness to help in every way made the whole process easy. In addition, he obtained a brilliant result. I would give Matt 6 stars if it was an option.

Dunja & Tony Gilda
Testimonial from Grant & Naomi Larkin
Great agent and awesome team!

We have had the pleasure of dealing with Doyle Spillane for 20 years. Matt has shown yet again, a high standard of service. Professional, friendly and informative.

Testimonial from Paul L. & Ashley A.
Amazing agent and very honest!

! Stephen helped make my fiancée and my dreams come true! After a long battle trying to find somewhere that we would call home one day, Stephen made this happen! There are ALOT of agents out there that will tell you anything to get your hopes up and believe that something is possible only to tell the next person the same, and then having to move on to another place. Not Stephen! He was friendly from the start, honest and actually cared to help us. Was so simple to buy this place because of Stephens communication and response times and he worked around our busy work schedules by Staying back till whenever to wait for us to come and see him. Wednesday we saw it, Thursday we put an offer and Friday it was a done deal!! I would HIGHLY recommend Stephen as an agent whether its to buy or sell. I can see him being very successful in the coming years!!

Paul L. & Ashley A.

Testimonial from Dee Higgins
Great Result!

Matt and his team were an absolute pleasure to work with during the campaign. They made us feel at ease every step of the way of what can be a very stressful and emotional journey. Their exceptional market knowledge, communication skills, professionalism and hard work exceeded all expectations resulting in a very successful sale. We cannot thank the team enough for their efforts and support along the way.

Dee Higgins
Testimonial from Elise Hiddins
Professional AND Personable.

After actively seeking to purchase property for 7 months it feels like I've met practically all of northern beaches real estate agents.. so I can confidently promote that Steve has been one of the most genuinely nice and professional agents I've had the pleasure to do business with. He was prompt in keeping me updated and following through with promises all while going the extra mile (and even hand delivering contracts to my workplace!). It was a nice surprise to sense that he empathised with the massive emotional roller coaster of being a first home buyer and for that I would definitely recommend him to any friend or family member!

Elise Hiddins
Testimonial from DavidLaird
Great agent.

The whole experience was made easy from start to finish, with a terrific result. We only had to meet once, and sorted it all out from there. Doesn't get any easier than that!
