Testimonials
"Selling or buying a house is one of the biggest investments many people will make in their lives, so finding the right real estate agent can be a tough decision. The fact that we have used the Standevens to buy one house and sell two houses serves as the ultimate testament to our confidence that they are the absolute best in the business, and our positive experience has meant in our most recent house sale we did not even talk to any other agents. We knew who we trusted, we knew who we wanted to work with, and we knew that they would deliver the best possible result. With absolute pleasure, we recommend the Standevens for anyone that wants a Real Estate Team that you can trust will go the extra mile to deliver the best possible result with the least amount of stress."- Ben & Julia Ryan
"Paula and Simon came highly recommended and have exceeded expectations with their efficiency, professionalism and commitment to the sales process. They kept us updated and informed during the marketing campaign, nothing was a problem. Their warm genial approach delivered a result both parties were very satisfied with."- Ross Campbell
"After choosing the Standevens to sell our family home we couldn't be more happy with the outcome. They are a fantastic team and kept us well informed throughout the selling process. We really valued their honesty and the hard work they put into marketing and selling our home. Simon and Paula genuinely care about their clients and the community they live in."- Darren Cook
"We entrusted Simon and Paula to sell our home at 113 Randolph Street following our interactions with them purchasing a property at auction three months prior. Having now been on both sides of the Real Estate fence with the Standevens, we have nothing but praise for their professionalism, work ethic and subsequent results. Simon and Paula's experience in real estate shone through during our deadline sale and their guidance around marketing saw an unbelievable amount of interest generated, culminating in 30 offers being presented and a sale price that well surpassed all expectations we had. Whether you are buying or selling, we highly recommend Team Standeven.”- Marcus and Robyn Thompson
