“We were very happy to have had Darren as our salesperson for the sale of our house. Real estate salespeople are a mixed bunch, and the fear is usually of finding someone not too dissimilar to a used car salesman playing fast and loose with your money. We found Darren’s understated, genuine approach very reassuring, and more importantly, we found it had a positive influence on any potential buyers, to the extent that we managed a price well beyond our expectations, and well beyond our previous salesperson’s efforts. Highly recommended”  Martin & Kath
