Testimonials
Cathy is a great communicator, and has worked very diligently on this project. Thanks Cathy.- Paul, Matthew, Deborah and Richard
Cathy was very good, very professional. She used good communication at all times, and we really liked that constant contact. When you are selling your home, you always want news and updates; you want to be involved the whole way through. Having constant contact was important to us and Cathy was always touching base.
Selling your home can be quite an emotional and stressful time, and Cathy really helped us to guide us through the process. After open homes, you are always keen to know how they went â without fail we always got a phone call from Cathy afterwards. That part of the process was very, very good. We were really happy with the sale result which was under the hammer (by auction).
The whole sale process was handled very professionally by Cathy. All the material she gave us was professionally presented, easy to understand and informative â she gave us everything we needed. If we ever needed clarification on anything, Cathy was always there to explain things to us.
Cathy's been in real estate for a good many years, so she offers lots of experience, which was a really good thing for us. Cathy has a very bright and bubbly personality â she's very enthusiastic, caring and understanding, and she's passionate about real estate.
A big thing for us is that you can build trust with Cathy very quickly. We really felt like she was looking after us and looking after our needs â that helped the whole process. We were really happy with Cathy and we'd happily recommend to anyone else. She did a fantastic job for us.- Epsom Seller
My husband and I wanted to interview several agents, so we spoke to four agents all up before choosing Cathy to represent our home. We asked each of them to come over and give us some ideas as we were open to suggestions on the sale.
They all gave us an appraisal and an idea of their marketing plan and how they would run the marketing process. We spoke to agents from Barfoot and Thompson, Bayleys, Harcourts and Ray White. They were all very nice and affable but we choose Cathy because of the way she put real thought into how to market the home and then she presented it with style.
She absolutely delivered on everything. She was professional, real, great at communicating and gave us fantastic updates about everything. Nothing is too much trouble for Cathy and she goes out of her way to work around you.
It's so important to be able to look at your home through someone else's eyes and Cathy's not scared to tell you when something needs doing to create that âwow' impression on potential buyers. You've got to get that wow as soon as people walk in, so it's all about the presentation of the home. Cathy even brought flowers to the first open home â nothing was too much trouble for her, she was great.
Cathy is always positive. People don't always like everything and they will always find something they don't like but Cathy never dwells on the negatives. She would be positive and give us a full run down after every open home weekend, including who came through and what their comments were. She couldn't be more professional.
At the auction, Cathy was very focused on getting people there. We had five variations on the contract but we wanted to settle on our terms. Cathy told us that if there was a variation to what we ideally wanted, then a higher sale price should reflect that. She is very pragmatic in that sense and has a lot of experience in getting the best result. The auctioneer was also very good and really professional, I couldn't recommend any of them more highly.
Cathy has a very relaxed style and makes people feel comfortable. She is welcoming and warm and has a knack of communicating with people which makes a huge difference. She can relate to people and uses language appropriately to make them feel at ease â she's also really aware and insightful of what people are looking for in a home.
Cathy arranged the video of our home with a talented young man, and she suggested that he do panning inside and out, as we have a high stud inside. This really helped to link the whole home together with the location, the school and the city scape.
The way Cathy put the video together with her choice of words to prompt viewers meant that people weren't just relying on the visual but had it backed up with powerful messages too.
The photographer was fantastic too â and again, Cathy suggested a few shots. The dusk shots were very effective â they were the âwow' shots and it was so important to have those. With Cathy, there is never any talk of settling, as in âlet's just settle for this'. She is a perfectionist without being painful and she wants the best that can be possibly done.
You always feel aware and in touch with what's happening. Particularly in the last week of the campaign before the auction. The combination of Cathy and her assistant Lisa is powerful and communication is a massive part of that mix. She always goes the extra mile â whether that's another visit, another opportunity, or more photos.
To sum it up, the best thing about having Cathy on board is her professionalism, personality and the way she communicates. She offers positive, easy communication and really seems to be able to relate to where you are at. There isn't any BS with Cathy. She tells it how it is and she's a very honest and genuine person with huge integrity. It's great to have Cathy on your team when you are selling your home.- Remuera Seller
We chose Cathy because she sold our last home and did an awesome job. She just makes it so easy and she gives us a fabulous result. Cathy absolutely stands out for her approach, and her communication with us was outstanding.
She is a strong believer in more advertising driving more enquiries and for us it was worth every penny. Cathy ensured that our home stood out and was in front of other homes on the market. "You get one opportunity to influence the value of your home.â
For our first open home, Cathy turned up with a lovely bunch of flowers. That weekend we had 42 groups through on the first day. She has an invaluable understanding of buyer feedback and their level of interest, and we love the knowledge shared â She talked us through everything and gave us full weekly reports; we were kept up to date constantly, which was fantastic.
On the night of our auction, Cathy worked as a team with the Ray White auctioneer Wayne, who was also amazing. We had six unconditional buyers bidding that night. The power of the competition was tangible â Cathy talks about the emotional money, and let me tell you, we saw the emotional connection hopeful buyers had with our home, and that drove the sale price oneway â up!
Cathy really goes above and beyond anybody else I've ever sold or bought a home through, and we have worked with a whole bunch of agents. She is a real people person and she has a true love of people and houses. No body helps you like Cathy does; she's not out for herself, she's out to help you â and we found that very cool, we were very lucky.
We've bought and sold numerous homes, and we can honestly say that Cathy is the best agent I've ever dealt with in buying or selling. We would recommend her to anyone because they simply don't get better than Cathy Roselli. Cathy is absolutely a master of her trade.- Parnell Seller
