Property Management

To Whom it may concern: After doing some initial research and being impressed with the results that Michelle was achieving in a difficult market I engaged Michele Hawkins to sell my property in Woodlands. On our first meeting it was clear to me that Michelle was the right choice, she immediately saw the potential of the property and, from multiple perspectives was able to effectively market to the property’s strengths. Michelle went above and beyond any expectations in helping me prepare my property for sale and achieve the price I wanted. She was able to advise on gardening, decorating and arranged contractors for maintenance. Michelle even did some hands-on gardening! Nothing was too hard, even through sometimes difficult negotiations with the buyer she stayed on track until we got the result we wanted. I am certain that I could not have achieved the results I did without Michelle and I would not hesitate to recommend Michelle as an extremely knowledgeable, professional and hard-working agent.

Dear Michelle, Just a quick note to let you know how pleased we were with the way you handled the marketing and sale of our late mother's home in Scarborough. From the beginning you were punctual, professional, friendly and full of enthusiasm for the job. This showed up in the way you went about marketing the home, keeping us fully informed at all times right through to getting an awesome sale price! We couldn't have been more pleased. I would highly recommend your service to anyone. Thank you again.

Over a five year period I watched in despair as my investment property was gradually wrecked whilst being managed by one of the top, award winning management companies in West Australia. The company failed to update the property condition report between tenants and after a major upgrade of floor coverings and installation of a new kitchen and laundry. Due to their incompetence an almost new dishwasher was thrown out, the gardens were ruined and the driveway partially wrecked. Due to the high staff turnover within the company, different property managers inspected the property at the 3 monthly inspections and none reported the new kitchen. In fact they did not even realise that the tenants had a dog or that other family members were now living in the house without permission. It was a tremendous relief when Michelle from Michelle Hawkins Real Estate took over the management of the property. In record time she ensured that the dishwasher was replaced and all damages repaired. I was most impressed with her professionalism, her attention to even the smallest detail and her highly effective organisational skills. Now that Jenny Fraser has joined her, I now have the peace of mind knowing that the property is well cared for by a small team of true professionals. It is essential to have consistency when managing properties, especially when the owner lives overseas. Michelle and her team now also manage my sons property. They assisted in having the property renovated, organising quotes and installations for new floor coverings and window treatments. In addition they found an exceptional handyman who renovated the gardens and repainted the whole property at a very reasonable price. I can highly recommend Michelle at Michelle Hawkins Real Estate and her team of 5 to anybody who cares about their investment properties. They go above and beyond to ensure the properties are well maintained and owners and tenants are looked after and treated fairly. Best wishes Eileen Mackenzie Xabia, Alicante. Spain
