testimonials

Unexpectedly, a couple of weeks ago and earlier than my carefully made plans, my daughters found the right house in the right location for me and it was both logically and emotionally the one we wanted to buy, so I made an offer and secured a contract.  Having to deal with agents, vendors, finance lenders, inspectors, conveyancers and solicitors, all became important, all of them either enhancer and enablers or tainters and problematic.

As an interstate buyer, purchasing perhaps my last house, (I have either purchased or built a total of seven houses to live in), I can honestly say, without reservation, this has been the best house purchasing experience I have ever had.

The house was listed by Kingfisher Realty, managed by Conal and assisted by Erin.

Thank you everyone for making my move to Queensland already enjoyable.

Thank you again Conal!  We have been dealing with Conal, and his team, for many years now and he has always achieved amazing results for us.  Conal’s work ethic is outstanding and we love his constant communication.  Always being kept up to date.  He is highly professional, as are the rest of his team.  We have often recommended Kingfisher Realty and will continue to do so.  You couldn’t be in better hands…….for a purchase and definitely a sale!

KF were fantastic selling my house after only 3 weeks at the listed price! Conal realistically priced my house and Erin did a magnificent job presenting the house and negotiating with buyers. A big thank-you to Tamika for all her efforts also!

KF were true professionals throughout and by operating as a team I could see that every possible effort was being made to sell my house.

Thanks Conal

Would like to say a big thanks to Conal, for helping to find our new home. We are new to Australia and the buying process here, but after missing out on a few properties with other agents, we manage to secure our home with the help of Conal.

Super service and a great house

Everything was well explained from start to finish couldn’t have been happier, thanks for a great house Conal.

Sold in six days. What a team!

From the start Conal and his team put 100% effort into marketing and selling our Burleigh Heads duplex. Everything, including photography, advertising, feedback, and selling price more than met our expectations. We have never experienced such a hassle–free property sale, thanks to the Kingfisher Realty teamwork. We would not hesitate in listing further properties with Conal and would certainly recommend his professionalism to anyone.

Graham & Lynda Gittins

We have used Conal and the team at Kingfisher Realty several times over the years , always with not only swift but outstand results. Recently we bought our first investment property. We immediately contacted Conal to help us out once again.He placed us in the very capable hands of Rebecca Ramsey.

Rebecca is a very confident, well presented young lady with many years of experience in property management both on the Gold Coast and interstate. Rebecca was happy to spend as much time as was required to help us through the process of leasing our property. She did our appraisal on a Tuesday, the property was photographed the following day, sign and internet listing the day after and our tenants had moved in within 7 days.

Couldn’t be happier with the whole process, and rent achieved was far above our expectations. Since the tenants have moved in, she has been in regular contact with us, keeping us updated on any issues.

If you are after property management services, we are more than happy to recommend the professionalism of Rebecca Ramsey and the team at Kingfisher Realty.

Kerry & Craig Wasson

Thanks so much Rebecca and Cody for all of your help with managing my property so far. Being interstate, it has been invaluable having your level of professionalism and commitment to ensure everything has gone smoothly and stress free.

I look forward to continually working with you.

Thank You!

I recently purchased a property through Kingfisher Real Estate, and was referred to Bec’s services from there.

I am extremely lucky to have been paired with Bec. Her communication is clear, she is trustworthy and exceptionally well organised. Bec leased my property at above my price expectation in a matter of 3 working days. My property required significant repairs, and she was able to fix the issues at a lower cost than I would be able to find from my own connections.

The back office function of Kingfisher is also brilliant; rental deposits are paid into my account fortnightly which makes a huge impact when paying off the mortgage.

I couldn’t recommend a better person to manage property in the Gold Coast Region. My rating 10/10.

Dave Stewart

Would just like to thank Rebecca personally for making renting our property in Burleigh Waters such an easy experience. As first time property investors, Rebecca took complete control of the rental set up and installation of tenants within the time frame that we needed. As my wife and myself both work full time, it was reassuring to know that she had everything in hand, even down to sorting out landlord insurance for us.

Thanks once again for all your help.

Top agent!

I chose Conal to sell my home because I believe he is the best agent in Burleigh. He was the agent we bought the house off 7 years prior and I was impressed by his work ethic and specialised knowledge of the Burleigh area. He is honest and will say it how it is, whether you’re a buyer or a seller. I would definitely buy from and sell with Conal in the future as he is a trustworthy agent.

Tracey Hunter

Achieved desired outcome

Conal was prompt and deliberate in selling my property.

Conal Martin is a Burleigh Expert

We chose Conal to be our Agent as we had noticed the excellent results he was getting in our area. He did not disappoint! Conal was open with his communication, fair in his appraisal and feedback and easy to access with any queries. As well as this, he runs a very efficient office and his staff were able to provide excellent backup in a timely and efficient manner.

Teamwork Achieves Success

Conal Martin and the Kingfisher team have taken a sincere and deep interest in our personal circumstances and are working with us to achieve our real estate goals within a realistic time frame.

TIMING

With us timing was of the essence and Kingfisher’s timing was perfection just like their service.

The Trusslers

A fantastic experience

Conal and all his team at Kingfisher Realty would have to be the most knowledgable and friendly Agents on the Coast.Conal knew exactly what we were looking for and as soon as this property came up he was in there negotiating a deal in which both buyer and seller felt comfortable.

My wife’s dream of moving to Burleigh has come true and the kids can’t wait.Thankyou Conal for the professional manner in which you conduct your business and look forward to bumping into you and your fantastic staff around Burleigh. Phil Heath.

I recently employed the services of Rebecca Ramsey of Kingfisher Realty to manage the leasing of my property in Burleigh Heads. From my initial contact with Rebecca through to my ongoing communication with her, I have always found her to be friendly, efficient and professional.  I appreciated her advice on rental values locally as well as marketing strategies. She always delivered on her promises and was also open to listening to my suggestions and concerns.  She was also proactive and reliable in organising “open homes”.  I believe her to be extremely trustworthy and had no hesitation trusting her with the keys to my property and her showing clients in my absence.  Due to the combination of these factors we were able to successfully lease my place for a mutually agreeable price within 2 weeks. Communication is another important strength of Rebecca’s which continued as she efficiently and seamlessly arranged the paperwork and handover details for the new tenant.

Overall I have been more than pleased with the service I have received from Kingfisher Realty and more specifically, Rebecca Ramsay. I look forward to continuing to deal with her during the remainder of my lease and would have no hesitation in highly recommending her and Kingfisher Realty.

Anthony Heath

Our involvement with Rebecca Ramsey, from Kingfisher Realty, has been amazing from the get go.  To have tenants ready to move in before we actually moved out was beyond our expectations.  At a time of stress, related with a move, we appreciated her ability to keep everyone happy and deliver results and then some. Thanks Rebecca. – Helen Timmings

We feel very lucky to have met Rebecca at the just the right moment, she went above and beyond to find us a new home that we love. Rebecca made the moving process incredibly easy and dealt with everything in a very professional manner. After a bad experience with another agent, she has restored our faith in realtors and we are very grateful for her help, thank you.  – Becki Braham

Conal as stated was the vendor’s appointed agent. He is very polite and knowledgeable in regards to Burleigh Heads real estate. He and his staff are extremely helpful and proactive with enquires relating to properties under consideration. Upon confirmation of purchase when there is nothing further to be gained by the agent Conal and staff have gone out their way to source information relating to the property we purchased.

Mr & Mrs Phingsthorne

10 out of 10 for you Conal, you have made my Burleigh dream come true!

Always friendly and gets the job done with little stress and no hassles. Thanks Conal Martin and Kingfisher Realty you have made our dream of living in Burleigh come true!

Outstanding on all areas performance, advertising, communication, delivering the best possible outcome.

We will definitely use Conal Martin in the future and highly recommend him to others.

Conal was very helpful with all aspects of the sale, he made the settlement stress free. I will definitely be using Conal when I decide to sell.

Jamie & Tiffany Clarke

A great result by a skilled agent working for a very demanding client.

After a failed auction campaign with a previous agent, we began the process of finding another agent to take over the selling of our house.

After thoroughly vetting a few agents and conducting what were more like job interviews, we finally settled on Kingfisher realty in general, and Conal Martin in particular. Conal proved he not only had good knowledge of the area, but was a skilled negotiator—a critical skill for any agent but not always easy to find—and furthermore he understood that his job was to listen to, and serve the clients’ interests, not his or the buyers’ interets. We have 165,000 reasons to recommend Conal, everyone of them representing additional dollars that I got from having Conal sell my home compared to what my previous agent recommended we sell for. Unlike our previous agent, Conal did not conduct a single open house (compared to the previous campaign when we endured two open houses every weekend.

The result—plenty of tyre kickers traipsing thorough our home with no real interest nor capacity to buy at the price we were prepared to sell) and not a single bid at auction. With Conal we only ever had qualified buyers come through the house, sourced from the right target market segment. We have no hesitation in recommending Conal Martin and Kingfisher Realty to anyone who values a stress-free, value-for-money marketing campaign with just the right amount of communication and feedback leading to the best possible sale outcome. No empty promises, no endless bombardment of unqualified ‘buyers’, no wasted marketing efforts targeting the wrong market segment, no trying to talk down the price just so he could make a quick sale.

With Conal you get what’s written on the box—someone who will work for you and who takes obvious pride in getting the maximum sale price for your home. You can’t ask for more than that.

I approached Rebecca to manage the property I purchased in Burleigh Heads. Despite some difficult situations of which were completely out of our control, I found Rebecca’s commitment for a satisfactory result to be second-to-none. Rebecca was always in contact,  went out of her way to overcome obstacles and is always a pleasure to deal with. I would not hesitate to recommend Rebecca. – Clare Ross

Our recent purchase in Burleigh Waters

We have been looking for a home to buy on the Gold Coast for about 18 months. Having searched many areas and being shown through numerous properties by an array of agents, we finally decided on the area in which we wanted to settle. Coming from Sydney four years ago, we had become a little skeptical of some agents on the coast and their lack of integrity and honesty. We were shown through a few homes by Conal Martin and found none of these attributes could be found in him or any of his team.

Conal’s knowledge of the local area and indeed the whole property market was exceptional. He understood what we were looking for and within a matter of weeks we had purchased our new home. We would recommend Conal to any vendor or purchaser as a true professional with great communication skills and passion for what he does. It has been a pleasure to deal with Conal and the rest of the team at Kingfisher Real Estate.

I have recently rented out my unit through Bec at Kingfisher Realty.  I’m very pleased with her professionalism & prompt service I had my unit rented out in no time,  which I was very pleased.

I will not hesitate to refer Bec to any family or friends.

Thanks again Kingfisher Realty

Thanks to Bec from Kingfisher Realty for help renting my property. Bec was friendly, helpful and professional during the process of showing my house to prospective tenants. I am very happy to have Kingfisher manage my property.

Carol Newman

Erin was a pleasure to deal with, very professional and approachable. Erin was always available during the sale process.

Cameron

Erin is a great agent, she knows all about the area and the people that live in it. She is always honest and tells you what she thinks.

A quality which all estate agents should have, but don’t.
