Excellent Sales Performance by Richard and Cleo 5 Stars - A total professional performance by the Barfoot & Thompson team. First rate marketing, and ongoing communication with us, with regular updates on how the sale was progressing. We are very satisfied on all counts.

We found Richard amazing to work with 5 Stars
We felt that Richard was totally there for us. We are very grateful to him for all the time and effort he put into marketing and selling our home. He was a great communicator, up with the market, efficient, genuinely caring and supportive. Richard was professional and reliable. We loved working with him. We would highly recommend Richard to anyone who is wanting to buy or sell their home.

Swift and Seamless Sale Handled by a Knowledgeable and Pleasant Salesperson
Richard took over the sale of our property after a failed mandate with another agency. The house sold in less than a month but what struck most were two things: Firstly, while we ensured that the property was always presentable, Richard and his team and Barfoot & Thompson didn’t make any unreasonable requests for us to alter the property. We readied the house each weekend and were rewarded with a swift sale. Secondly, we felt that Richard and his team were always acting in our best interests. We didn’t get a sense that the agency was after a quick sale. In general, Richard and the broader Barfoot & Thompson team were well-versed in the current property market. Their approach was professional and communication was consistent and timely. I would recommend the team to anyone looking to sell their house.

Expectations exceeded... again.
This is the second property Richard has sold for us. With the first, Richard exceeded our expectations. Guess what, he did the same with the second! Richard is very easy to deal with and a great communicator who understands what you want to achieve and knows what to do to help you achieve it in a very competitive market. We highly recommend Richard!

Fantastic Salesperson!
Thank you so much to Richard. He knew exactly how to go about selling our house. He knew that auction was not the way to go for us, and what price level to set up. Went above and beyond just getting viewers through the door, and worked all hours until we got the price we wanted! Richard was so easy to communicate with, and very reassuring.

Great communication, sincerely honest and great man to deal with.
Richard is a very approachable, lovely man. Richard is very professional. His resources, knowledge, also commitment to selling our property was beyond amazing. Richard did everything to accommodate us and I understand who we were as clients. A wonderful man, we were so blessed to have him as an agent.

The Complete Package

Richard knows his business. This is the third house sale I have had Richard as my salesperson and every time it has been a complete success. To have achieved the price I wanted in today's market over the Christmas period, was like expecting a miracle, but it happened thanks to his hard work and dedication. I would not hesitate to recommend Richard as a salesperson. He is the complete package. He goes out of his way to help and support.

Good communication and very professional

We recently worked with Richard and Cleo to sell our Albany property. Both salespeople were professional and in constant communication throughout the entire process. The marketing information presented to us was extremely comprehensive and open homes were handled with minimal fuss. We would absolutely recommend Richard & Cleo if you are looking to sell your property.

An honest and knowledgeable team who kept us informed

I was glad that we chose Richard as our salesperson, and we had the bonus of having Cleo as part of the team. I found them both to be knowledgeable about the area and kept us informed and updated throughout the marketing process. Their honest, professional approach and commitment to selling the house make me happy to recommend them to anyone planning on selling their home. They went the "extra mile" putting in a lot of effort, and that stood out for me.

A relationship built on honest & open awareness

We found both Richard and Cleo to be very approachable, honest, open and helpful with good explanations of the process. They listened to our requirements which led to a successful sale of the property.

Richard & Cleo provided exceptional service

Richard & Cleo provided exceptional service and were always ready to assist us whenever needed. We could not recommend Richard & Cleo highly enough to anyone navigating today’s housing market. We were guided on how to prepare for the market and were thrilled with our house-staging and the quality of photos for the marketing campaign. The weekly reports were thorough, some buyer feedback was a little hard to swallow but the market spoke, and we had to listen. Many thanks Richard & Cleo – we are happy with the result. It’s been a wild ride and one we are pleased to get off!

Selling a home is never easy but Richard made it as easy as it could be

The thing that stands out most in our minds about selling our home of 20 years, is how hard Richard worked to make the process easy. He was always available on the phone to answer questions when we had them, and we often wondered if he had any life outside selling homes. He helped us explore the many options available and even at the most stressful times was able to put our minds at rest. We never felt pressured and he readily accepted it when we said something did not feel right for us. His knowledge of the housing market was reassuring for greenhorns.

Thank you Richard.

We are very grateful to you and Cleo for your professionalism and tireless efforts in getting 7 Tempo sold during Lockdown. A big high five to all of us for a great result, despite trying circumstances.

Richard Pearce from Barfoot & Thompson Albany, works tirelessly for his vendors. He gives direct, honest advice, and we were very happy with the results achieved on a unique and harder-to-sell property. He gets great support from his wife Marianne and co-agent Cleo. We would happily recommend Richard and his team to friends and family.

Richard the First
I sold my two bedroom rental property in Browns Bay this year, (2021), by auction. I had obtained three appraisals to analyse. I went with Richard as he was proactive in assessing whether the property could be sub-dividable. He provided what was a very realistic price target for the auction, and he gave me a comprehensive blow-by-blow account of the auction process. He also was very informative as to every aspect of the requirements and his methodology. As I had not sold a property for decades and never at auction, I felt I was in good hands with him to steer me through the process with confidence. As it turned out, his professionalism and personality was perfect for this journey. I have no reservations in recommending Richard to other house sellers. I am sure you will also be pleased to have picked him.
