Dear Clinton,

Selling your own property is one of the most intrusive personal processes that a family has to go through. When the decision is made to move on, it is very difficult to allow strangers to roam freely through your home. I therefore would like to take the time to personally thank you and your team for the professionalism and assistance in selling my property.

I would like to congratulate you on taking the initiative to following through on all details as promised, even with matters that were difficult. Selling some ones property is not an easy task, as we are faced with many obstacles along the way. It is very easy to ignore harder issues or to rollover problems and therefore, not communicate issues with the owners; mostly I appreciate your honesty for being upfront and telling the truth. As a seller, communication of the truth, is all anyone really wants. this is a rare quality and is extremely difficult to fins a Real estate Sales Consultant who is able and capable of doing that.

You listened to my requests and followed up promptly on all matters relating to the sale. I appreciate your hard work and dedication in achieving a result for our Fremantle property.

Thank you for your assistance and help. I wish you and your team all the very best for the future.

The bearer, Mr Troy Holloway is highly recommended by me both as a person and as a very dedicated real estate professional.

i first met Troy after performing a survey of real estate companies both in the local and Fremantle area with the view to selling my property located in the Spearwood district.

From my initial discussions and to the present i have found him to be courteous, well informed and business like, his performance record was found to be very impressionable and enviable amongst his colleagues.

My decision to place the sale of my property in his hands has proven to be well founded.

Throughout he kept me informed of all developments regarding my property and prospective purchasers, and within a short time frame I had an offer of acceptance, which was handled professionally and amicably to all parties concerned.

It has been a pleasure doing business with him and as such , I do not not hesitate in recommending him to anyone for handling their real estate needs.

I am writing to let you know how I found Troy Holloway in dealing with the sale of my property in Hilton. the transaction involved swapping investment properties.

Troy is helpful and approachable. His cheerful nature and positive attitude makes what can be a trying experience, a very easy one!

He kept me up to date after each home open, and I felt at all times that Troy was working for me. We decided a realistic price, and he kept me up to date on all offers. I particularly liked Troy managed the negotiating of the price and kept firm, without unduly involving me.

Troy's advice and connections with Paula Thompson in Waikiki, enabled me to purchase a newer investment property in a straight forward fashion. I would certainly recommend Troy and your firm.

Dear Troy,

Firstly a great big thank you for all your assistance and advice with the sale of my unit.

As you may recall my first contact with you was via telephone late last year as I needed a valuation. Although all business was conducted over the phone, requests I made and questions asked were dealt with promptly and efficiently.

April of this year I decided to sell my Blinco unit and because of your professionalism in my previous dealings with you telephoned to meet you and discuss my options.

I'm not one for writing letters Troy however I feel the service you provided was far more than I would have expected from a real estate sales rep. Your listening to me and hearing what I was saying, to the little things you did for me to make the unit more attractive for sale, e.g. rescrewing the front light shade into the wall, clearing away the cardboard boxes in the garage, taking away 'left over' junk from the shed that the tenants had left behind, helped me enormously. I am very appreciative of all your efforts.

I was very impressed with your telephone manner. When you phoned me at work you were always straight to the point either reminding me of a follow-up I could only do, or updating on the progress of the sale. I don't recall having to ever ring you to follow up on an issue.

Thank you very much Troy for making the sale of mother's unit so much easier for me with professionalism, helpfulness and support.

I wish you well in your career - I know you'll continue doing well!

We first met Troy Holloway, Property Consultant at Port City First National Real Estate when we viewed a property for which he was the listing agent in January 2001.

We subsequently had a number of meetings with Troy, whom we always found to be courteous, considerate and very professional in his dealings with us, Troy was most obliging and helpful, and we were impressed with the way he carried out his job efficiency and dealt with all matters to the best of his ability.

We would have no hesitation in negotiating with Troy again should the need arise, and recommending his services as a Property Consultant.

A short time ago I was interested in a property for sale and needed to make arrangements to look it over as soon as possible as I felt it was excellent value for money.

I contacted Troy Holloway from Port City Real Estate and without any fuss and drama he suggested a suitable time to meet. In a short time frame I had signed an offer and acceptance. All the details were attended to quickly and efficiently by Troy. He took care of all the necessary paper work, and other details like the termite inspection were arranged and happened, smoothly and on time.

As settlement day approached we were getting anxious and he assured us that everything would come together, which it did. During the course of the events I contacted Troy a few times and he was always interested and sincere in dealing with my call.

In my dealings with Troy I have found him to be genuine, friendly and approachable without being patronizing.

I would be happy to business again in the future with Troy.

Andrew Shaw

I would like to express my appreciation of the efforts put in by Andrew Shaw in helping me to secure the home I was looking for in South Fremantle.

I met Andrew at a 'House Open' in the street in which I eventually purchased my home. He knew what I was looking for and when something did come up in the same street, he was quick to let me know. Within the week, I had a new home!

I was impressed by Andrew's ability to listen, his openness and his down to earth manner. He was always easy to contact. he was prompt at returning phone calls and he was excellent at keeping me up to date with developments.

If I was ever looking to sell, I would have no qualms about enlisting Andrew's support as my Agent.

Darren Spencer

Attention Darren Spencer

Greetings Darren,

As executor and on behalf of the other beneficiaries of The Estate of the Late Odd Henry Krokene, we wish to thank you for your very professional care in the sale of my late father's property at 9 Cutts Street, Hamilton Hill, WA, 6163.

For legal reasons it was necessary for us to obtain four valuations to the property, and to that end we randomly selected four estate agents from a weekend newspaper a short while before appointing you the task of selling it. We personally didn't know any of you at that time.

The range of suggested prices was from $220,000.00 to $300,000.00 with yours being the highest at 280,000.00 to $300,000.00. We had settled on a reserve price of $260,000.00, which price we didn't tell you about, and at the first round of offers your best offer was $275,000.00, being much more that we thought that we would ever achieve.

Shortly after that, due to the number of interested parties, the offer accepted was $278,000.00.

Throughout the entire proceedings you kept us informed of all developments, of which we are most grateful.

On the day of the initial inspection by all agents you offered to drive to Scarborough with your valuation. At first we thought that was a little over the top. as posting it would have been quite acceptable, but in hindsight we realised that was a touch we really liked. Thank you for that personal touch. Had we accepted another agent to sell the house, we doubt we would have achieved such a high price. We're glad that we chose you.

Should we ever hear of anyone in the Fremantle area needing a real estate agent, you will get the first refusal of the business. We have no doubt that even in a slow market you would work to achieve the maximum sale price possible.

Bill Booth

I had had my house on the market for 15 weeks when I met Bill Booth at a home open in Fremantle. He gave me some great advice about marketing and offered to appraise my house. At no time was he intrusive or insistent. Ultimately, I engaged Bill to sell my house. His energy and enthusiasm were most heartening. He opened the house for 2 weekends and managed 3 offers, the last of which I very happily accepted. Throughout the entire process, he was very professional and inspired great confidence. I would have no hesitation in recommending him to anyone seeking help and advice about real estate.

We wish to pass on our appreciation to Shelley for her assistance, integrity and tireless effort in looking after the interests of both parties.

We would be pleased to do further business with Port City Realty and feel comfortable in recommending Shelley to our contacts.

Hi Sally,

Chris has just told me we are now the owners of 3/12 Hope Rd, Palmyra which is fabulous news. I wanted to thank you very much for your excellent service, particularly with the roof and fence issues. Out of all the people we've been dealing with over the last month your service stands out, principally because when you said you would take care of something, you did.

Thanks for making the process of purchasing our first home hassle-free. I am really looking forward to moving in tomorrow and creating what I know will be a home.

Kind regards,

Marianne Durbin
