" John & Zoli are Masters of Real Estate "

  Many Thanks to John, Zoli and the MyPlace team for your assistance in buying our new home.   You are both truly Masters of Real Estate to help and assist your clients in any situation to support achieving their goals around the property business.   Our dealings with you over the past 10 years only shows the highest standard of professionalism and your caring attitude to help us to find our new home either we were renting or buying.   We appreciate that you always put our best interest first.   We highly recommend MyPlace Estate Agency for any Real Estate dealings.  

Michael & Erika

" Honesty, positivity, determination and dedication "

John and Zoli were amazing through what was a very difficult time in the market. They communicated with us constantly and remained positive throughout the whole process which made the experience a lot easier for us. They never stopped striving to get us the best possible outcome. We would absolutely have no hesitation in recommending them and thank them both for the outcome they achieved on our behalf.

Kim & Michael

" Good communication & quick to respond "

We have just purchased a property via auction through Zoli & John. They have been open and quick/responsive with all communication.  As first home buyers, they have helped us along the way.  

Kirsten

" Above and beyond expectations "

John and the team at MyPlace recently sold our semi in Botany. They also organised a short term rental property for us which we moved into a couple of months before listing ours for sale which allowed us to renovate ours without going crazy! John and Justine came to our house on many occasions while we were renovating and gave us great advice on what repairs would add value and also on colour and styling in order to make our property as appealing as possible to buyers. They also organised tradesmen and stylists for us and met these people at our house when we were not able because we both work full time. Their photographs for the listing showed our place in the best possible light. During the sale process John and Nelson always kept us up to date including after every viewing and about any offers made. The team was really helpful and so transparent which was refreshing. We couldn’t be happier with the service we received from the whole team. John in particular was amazing and worked so hard to get us the best possible price while being honest and respectful to our potential buyers. We would highly recommend MyPlace for both selling and for property management. Thanks team MyPlace! You were all awesome and we are so grateful to you!  

Julie & Paul

Danielle

" Great Agents with Extensive Local Knowledge "

John and Zoli are lovely agents with extensive knowledge of the Botany area.  John was able to answer pretty much every question we had about the Botany area the surrounding developments which was very helpful in making our decision to purchase.  They were extremely easy to deal with and were an incredible help with buying our dream home.  Thank you both, we highly recommend!

We were exceptionally happy with John’s service and hard work. From the moment we met, John was genuine and honest and kept us well informed during the entire process.

" John & Zoli are the best agents in town "

A very smooth experience from first initial conversation to contract exchange. John & Zoli managed our expectations effectively every step of the way. Both gentlemen work to a high degree of integrity and trustworthiness. What you see is exactly what you get - consistently very clear and succinct communication. Advertising and marketing across all media types was of an extremely high standard. Extremely easy to deal with. The whole process was smooth, stress free and extremely quick. Speed to sale took one week. We have no hesitation in recommending John and Zoli as the best agents in the area to work with. They do know their way around property.

Brid

" Approachable & Informative "

We have known John and Zoli for the past year whilst we have been looking for our new home. Zoli has always been very approachable and has gone out of his way to inform us of new properties on the market which may have suited us, I have had many phone calls with him over this time about the market and various properties. When we found the right home Zoli made the transition from offer to signing the contract a smooth operation and we are very much looking forward to moving in next month.

Helen

" Dedication "

John is a great agent Very committed to getting a good outcome no matter the circumstances

Vasil

" 5 Star Agent "

Andrew is a good communicator always keeping clients up to date and informed and always willing to go out of his way to help.

Dan

" Highly Recommended "

I cannot speak highly enough of Andrew Cassar's assistance with the sale of my property at 34 High St and the purchase of my new property. Although no marketing was needed for my property at 34 High St, as I already had a buyer at the asking price, Andrew Cassar was in regular contact and offering assistance, with the sale of my property and purchase of my property at Sawyers Gully. I would highly recommend Andrew Cassar as an estate agent to my friends buying or selling property in this area.

Phil

" Refreshing to meet Authentic Agents "

Both John and Zoli showed attention to detail and delivered everything they promised. At a time when the market is flooded with real estate 'cowboys' it was refreshing to meet authentic agents who considered all aspects of our individual scenario and guided us to, what I believe to be the best possible outcome. Word of mouth is the most powerful tool in any business and I certainly won't hesitate to recommend MY PLACE and in particular, John and Zoli.

Sabrina

" Great Agent "

John is the best agent in the area - there is no one else with his knowledge and experience !!

Tanya

" Great Agent "

I purchased my property through My Place who were nothing but professional throughout the whole campaign. I would highly recommend them as agents.

Naomi

" Lucky two to have the right agent! "

I was lucky to have met John and Zoli. I found them to be honest and trustworthy. They went out of the way help us , they have gone way beyond just selling us a home. They truly understood what we were looking in our brief to... Gents thank you!!!

Safa

" Works for you "

John and the team at My Place worked very hard in selling our property. They have also been assisting us in buying a new property which is out of the area

Mark

" Smooth sailing! "

We were blown away by how efficient and warm the service we received was. It really was plain sailing and we couldn’t have hoped for more. Questions were answered quickly and no matter the request, it felt like nothing was too much. We felt very much support and couldn’t be happier!

Nicola

" Genuine agent "

John worked hard to sell our house in a difficult market. Very happy with his professional manner and honesty throughout our campaign. Thank you John

Sarah

" Very Personalised service "

Zoli And John did a great job of marketing our unit. Zoli has been enthusiastic, easily reachable at all times and kept us informed through out the sale process. The market was dull but they negotiated well to secure the deal for us. They had a good sense on the market and were very familiar with the suburb. I would recommend Myplace agents to anyone trying to sell near the eastern suburbs of Sydney.

Govind

" Great Agent "

John has been a great help, does the extra mile to ensure both parties are happy, easy to deal with, definitely will deal with him again when the next opportunity comes!

Kevin ly

I dealt with John Higgins and Andrew Cassar in an off the plan purchase of a terrace and unit within the Immerse development at Alexandria. I can thoroughly recommend the services of both John and Andrew who displayed an in depth knowledge of the local real estate market. They are experienced agents who are honest and professional.

Mark & Kit

" Respectful "

I felt respected and valued by John and his team at My Place agents.

Marina

" A VERY HELPFUL AGENT "

JOHN ACHIVED A BETTER THAN EXPECTED SALE PRICE FOR OUR PROPERTY. THANK YOU JOHN.

Brian

" Worry Free Purchase of First Investment "

John is a really dedicated sales person and he provides excellent service and knowledge to clients. I would definitely recommend him and MyPlace agency to anyone who likes to purchase/rent. I have got a seamless connection between purchasing my property and renting it out. John has secured a tenant for me even before I have signed the purchasing contract, which makes me worry-free during the purchase of my first investment property. Excellent job!!!

Monica

" Great experience "

We found the buying experience working with John and his team (Zoli was amazing) excellent. They accommodated our needs and treated us with respect and patience. We felt like they were treating us and the owner well. In negotiating a final price with us they were direct and refreshingly transparent, they did not try to game us like we've experienced with other agents. Ernest and Fiona

Ernest & Fiona

" Best agent in Sydney's south-east "

I've known John for over 10 years. Our kids grew up together. That might make me sound biased but I can honestly say I have never worked with a better agent. John cares. He takes time to explain things. He keeps in regular content. He's passionate for both the success of his vendors and his buyers. He's a gentleman and will work tirelessly for you to achieve the result you are looking for. I can't recommend John highly enough. Market Knowledge Communication Skills Credibility Negotiation Skills 

Tony & Megan Hollingsworth

" Great team and great agent! "

This is the second time we have sold with MyPlace Estate Agents. John and Zoli have once again proved to be trustworthy, honest and reliable during the duration of the campaign. Their expertise and knowledge of the local market was welcomed and appreciated and they offered realistic advice overall. Zoli has a vast network of contacts and gets the job done! Thank you both to John, Zoli and the MyPlace team.

Monica Widitz

" Smooth transaction, no problems "

Very polite and helpful during the open house. Good communication and cooperation all the way from offer to settlement. Minimised the stress associated with purchasing. Would be happy to recommend to anyone planning to sell or lease in the area.

Noah Bonaventura

" I wouldn't use anybody else as my agent other than John Higgins from MyPlace "

I could not speak highly enough about John and Kylie from My Place. Their care and commitment to selling my home was fabulous. I had all the confidence in the world that I was in the right hands with them and that definitely showed in the fast sale of my house - 1 week ! Professional, honesty and integrity was what I wanted and received from John and Kylie. Thank you so much.

Angela Ellis

" Achieved record results "

JOHN was experienced and very knowledgable about real estate in the local area. He was open and consistent in his communication throughout the duration of the campaign and grounded in his approach. His team were supportive (Kylie especially) and the marketing campaign ran smoothly. The weekly reports were detailed and informative. We achieved a record result with minimum stress. I'd highly recommend John and his team.

Nicky Hardcastle

" Very happy first home buyer "

I cant recommend John more highly. From start to finish, we had complete confidence in his advice. His communication was regular and clear. He helped us navigate the process throughout. With John's expertise and willingness to go the extra mile we were able to secure our property prior to auction. We genuinely cant thank him and his team at MyPlace enough.

Sacha

" Highly recommend My Place Estate Agents "

It’s been an absolute pleasure dealing with John and Kylie and MyPlace, from the first open house onwards they’ve been helpful, proactive and honest in all their dealings. It’s very rare to finds someone with this level of local area knowledge and willing to share with you. We will be using them for ALL property transactions we do in the area.

Vik

" Nothing short of amazing "

John and Kylie were amazing when I was going through the process of selling my property. From the start they made me feel comfortable and at ease with the whole process. I will be only using them in the future.

Luke

" Professional service with great local knowledge "

John and his team at MyPlace Estate Agents ran a great campaign for our house and we were thrilled with the result. Communication was open and constant and the advice provided was accurate and helpful. I recommend MyPlace highly and could not imagine using anyone else in the future.

Justine

" Testimonial "

Big thanks goes to John Higgins and the team at MyPlace Estate Agents for their exceptional work in selling our house and securing a price above our reserve. WELL DONE. It was only due to their hard work and commitment to getting the best result. I would definitely recommend John Higgins and MyPlace to anyone wanting the best outcome whether buying or selling a property.

Patrick

" Found us a buyer off market in record time "

John showed he was very knowledgable about our complex and the property itself prior to even meeting us. Through his contacts he was able to secure us a sale prior to putting it on market. He also offered to help us with the purchase of a new property which was of immense assistance to us.

Deb

" Our experience with My Place Real Estate Agent "

We are extremely happy with our experience in securing My Place Estate Agents as our agent for the sale of our property. From the start of our negotiations with John & Kylie they very open and transparent. Always oblidging and advising us on which way to approach the sale. Even after securing the sale the follow up service was far beyond what one would expect. In our opinion we would highly recommend anyone considering selling their property to get in contact with My Place. John & Dale O'Connor

John & Dale O'Connor

" John did a great job! "

John was very easy to deal with. Gave good advice and achieved an excellent result.

Justin

" Nice and easy "

From the very first contact dealing with John was smooth. He was very flexible in organising access, quick in getting back to me and to the vendor, knowledgeable about the area, prices and value, still easy going and pleasure to deal with. Highly recommended

Vladimir

" Excellent service "

We are very happy with John and Kylie's service when selling our home. They guided as every step of the way to a successful pre-auction sale. We can definitely recommend MyPlace Estate Agents.

Ivan & Ana

" Local Knowledge "

We sold our Botany apartment through John Higgins @ MyPlace Estate Agents in Oct 2016. Our apartment was one of the first to be sold in the newly developed Jasmine on the Park & therefore it was difficult to forecast our result vs previous sales in the area. John's 20+ year local knowledge of the Botany area gave us full confidence that he would achieve the best outcome possible for us. We referred John to some friends in the same complex and they also achieved an outstanding result & record sale at the time. We thank John & Kylie for their wonderful service. Kind regards, Ben & Alice

Ben & Alice

" An Agent to call a mate... "

It's true, there's no other word when referring to John other than "a good mate", a mate who is going to make you some serious profit! From day dot we felt very comfortable with what we were about to embark on, and John, Kylie, and team at MyPlace made all that and more possible. If you've never sold before, have faith in the advice and insights John is able to provide, he really knows his stuff and is a pro in the Botany and surrounding market. I saw how John cared for what the buyers were after, along with ensuring we were happy with the process and the most important part, the PRICE. Many conversation went back and forth, whilst we were constantly kept in the loop and informed of every potential buyers decision making process. Come auction day, JH had a great line up of motivated and emotional bidders. We had a realistic reserve and a comortable buffer ready for a vendor bid if required... Which for now the 3rd increasing record sale in our complex, John and MyPlace have not even needed! I would not hesitate to recommend John or any of the team at MyPlace to assist you with you next sale, purchase, or rental (which coincidentally we are now happy tenants of after a smooth transition from sale to rental). If you want to deal with an "agent" you feel you could trust as a "mate", look no further than John Higgins.

Alex

" Happy buyer "

John and his team were great to deal with when buying a property in Mascot. MyPlace was very quick to respond and made the entire process easy.

Christian

" Most reliable agent in Botany "

effortless agent. attention to detail was amazing. i would highly recommend him

Ari

" Great result "

Everyone was very friendly and professional Very happy with the result and outcome when we sold at auction Would recommend

Fiona

" Re 29 Daphne St BOTANY 2019 "

WE ASKED THREE AGENTS IN THE AREA TO SUBMIT THEIR STRATERGY AND COSTINGS TO MARKET OUR PROPERTY. AFTER REVIEWING ALL SUBMISSIONS WE DECIDED TO GO WITH JOHN HIGGINS AT MY PLACE ESTATE AGENTS. JOHN WORKED VERY HARD TO SELL OUR PROPERTY AND EVENTUALLY SOLD IT FOR A PRICE WE WERE EXTREEMLY HAPPY WITH. BRIAN CONNOR

Brian Connor

" Most professional agent in Botany "

Great agent. Bought the site from John Higgins. I was so impressed with his negotiation skills for his vendor, so I asked him to onsell once I redeveloped the site to a duplex development. He sold them within a week at a great price Definitely the agent for this area

Ari

" A very attentive agent with excellent market knowledge "

John and Zoli were a pleasure to work with, in selling our house. They were very attentive, thorough, informed, professional and displayed excellent market knowledge. They involved us in the whole process. I also believe they displayed the same to potential buyers.

Lesley O'Brien

" A top agent "

I couldn't have found a better agent. Very attentive, knowledgeable and kind. A pleasure to work with

Katie McKenna

" Great Agent! "

We have both bought/sold from John, and the thing we love most is his honesty. You know where you stand right from the start. He gives you an honest, realistic property value so you are not left paying for building inspections for properties that are well out of your price range. And you don't get your hopes up, only to turn up to an auction to find the starting bid is basically your maximum spending capacity. John doesn't believe in the silly games played by most real estates, what you see is what you get. We highly recommend John for anyone buying or selling.

Angela & Brian

" Great Knowledgeable Agent. "

John was easy to work with and has a very positive approach that engages potential buyers without compromising a sale.

Paul & Rachel

" Great Agent "

John Higgins is a gentleman of integrity having known him and done business with him and his staff at MyPlace for many years

Lena Sonego

" A trustworthy Agent "

I found selling the house a very stressful process but knowing that John was in control gave me a feeling of security. John is a very experienced agent and I found his down-to-earth attitude and honesty a blessing.

John Smithson

" Property Sale of 2/1357 Botany Road Botany "

It was a pleasure doing business with a professional team, whom were honest about expectations, fantastic communication throughout the sales process and delivered timely results! A credit to you John, Kylie and the My Place Team ... Thank you for making the sale of our property an enjoyable and definitely worth while experience!!

Katrina

" The best agency I have ever leased from "

I wanted to thank you for being the best agency that I have ever leased from and for providing me with the best custom service I have encountered, it's been a total pleasure and I will miss it!   

Shae

" Jasmine on the Park "

John and his team at MyPlace were terrific from the initial consultations, to the open homes right through to the contract stage. John and his team showed absolute professionalism throughout the process which gave my wife and I confidence right through. John showed his knowledge and experience of the Botany area and got the best possible result for us. He kept open communications with us the whole time. My wife and I cannot speak highly enough of John and his team at MyPlace Estate Agents and would highly recommend anyone thinking about selling their property to go with them. Thank you very much Johnny! Carly and I are extremely happy with our result. We plan to pop our bottle of champane for Christmas and I'm sure the new owners are just as happy with their new purchase.

Brock

" John & Kylie Continually Delivered "

When I read good reviews, I always wonder if there is some prior connection between the reviewer and the agent. Definitely not in this case: we hadn't met John or Kylie before commissioning them. In early discussions, John nominated a figure that he would target, and I was sceptical that the estimate might just be marketing hype. It wasn't: John delivered on the figure to the exact dollar. We are very pleased with the result. John also predicated that the house would sell pre-auction: again, John was right in his prediction. We followed John and Kylie's advice on the best way to prepare and present the house, and the house looked great as a result. Some of the tradies nominated were outstanding, and excellent value-for-money. The free colour consultancy regarding the painting was highly valued. Throughout the process, John and Kylie continually delivered. In any agency arrangement, there are opportunities for the agent to cut corners and minimise their time and inconvenience. There were those opportunities in our case: however, John always put his ethical obligations to us as the sellers first. For example, in following one piece of advice, we largely covered the cost of John's commission on that piece of advice alone. John and Kylie were outstanding in the quality of their communication, especially in the final stages of the contract. Nothing was left to chance, and we were fully informed along the way. In short, John and Kylie did an outstanding job, and we have benefited greatly.

Alan & Phil

" John Higgins - The real deal! "

Recently, my partner and I bought a lovely Botany town house through John Higgins. John, you made the whole experience as seamless as possible and very joyful at the same time.  You really know how to connect with people and that just made the whole experience even better.  I loved how respectful you are on behalf of your vendors and at the same time us, the buyer.  You are the real deal, and it was a pleasure doing business with you!!! An all round happy home buying experience, THANK YOU! 

Michelle Sanders

" Kylie Meier "

Having had a number of managing agents looking after my property, whose performance ranged from good to neglectful, I was referred to Kylie Meier in a chance encounter when inspecting a property for sale. I think I hit the jackpot. Kylie's performance when managing my property has been of a consistently high standard - she is efficient, reliable and communicates with me as a property owner every step of the way, both in finding tenants and in day-to-day management. She is a gem

Joan, Maroubra

I found Kylie and the team at Myplace real estate to be prompt, efficient and professional. Kylie is friendly, helpful and most importantly trustworthy and provides immediate results to her clients. Many thanks to Kylie and her team for such a positive experience!  Thanks again for your help.   Regards Cheryl and Marcus 

I have been most impressed by John Higgins on two occasions - first as a purchaser and then as a seller. He was the agent when I bought my house a few years ago. I was so impressed by his knowledge of the local area and his down-to-earth approach to the market, that I asked him to represent me in selling my house recently. Both times, he appraised the market very well and helped me attain my goals. I would recommend John to anyone considering buying or selling in this area, as he will know the history of every house on your street (when it sold, what it sold for, and likely who bought it), will alert you to pitfalls and will guide you to solutions. Many thanks, Alison Heather

Alison Heather

My wife and I have now bought and sold our house through John Higgins and his team.  It’s been a pleasure to work with John from both sides of the fence as he seems to completely enjoy what he is doing, and David and James echo that.  His judgment has proved reliable and as a purchaser, I found him refreshingly straightforward.  He and the team have been completely consistent in meeting appointments and commitments and they were extremely reliable as custodians during visits and inspections.  They were also very flexible in adapting to our somewhat aggressive timetable.  A great team to work with.

Simon Mundy

John Kept his promise made at the time of listing, I was at all times fully informed, I also felt that I could ring John at any time, to be able to deal with his team was also a delight, they are a hard working, honest group. I hope to use John and his team in the future.

Mr Arnold

We recently purchased a home through John and after witnessing the professionalism with which he presented the property and engaged clients, we knew that he was the perfect choice to sell our existing apartment.   John did an outstanding job that helped secure a record price for the apartment within a week of listing. We are very grateful to John for his dedication, enthusiasm and hard work in selling our apartment, and for keeping us up to date at all stages of the process.   We could not have hoped for a better service, and would have no hesitation in recommending John and MyPlace to potential vendors.   

Declan & Sara BOTANY

I would like to say a very big THANK YOU to you and your staff for the exceptional service you provided me in the sale of my property at Banksia Street Botany in April of this year. This was the first property I had sold and your guidance, knowledge and expertise in the Real Estate Business showed in how you and your staff were always available, returning calls promptly with enthusiasm and kindness, keeping me updated on a daily basis on how the sale was progressing. I was also impressed with the fact that you were willing to help with removalist, cleaners etc., (even though I had already organised this myself) I could only think how other clients would be happy to have this information provided to them. You made what could have been an intimidating and exhausting experience a pleasure. Wishing you all the best for your business future and I know that when I am ready to buy my next property MyPlace  Estate Agents  will be the ONLY Real Estate I will be calling!! Yours sincerely Tania Steiner

Tania Steiner

Hi John and David,  We would just like to thank both of you for achieving the fantastic result in the sale of our property. Your local knowledge, expertise and teamwork was an integral part in choosing My Place real estate to sell our property. In particular, your unrivalled knowledge of the complex was a great contributor to the sale of our property.   All throughout the campaign we were well informed and supported and felt that whenever we were nervous, your calm disposition was comforting. We greatly appreciate the work that was done and we would highly recommend you to anybody selling their property in the future.  Cheers

Carina Sam and Charlotte

Thank you to My Place Estate Agents and in particular John Higgins for the efficient sale of our unit.  We had it listed elsewhere for nearly 6 months without a satisfactory result. Yet after listing it with John early in January, he had several keen buyers, and then the sale concluded and the money was in our bank account all by 13th March.  We found the attention to details excellent and John kept us informed at all stages of the process. I would recommend this firm to anyone who needs a Real Estate firm in the Eastern Suburbs.  Alan and Alison Banks.

Alan & Alison Banks

From the first time I met John Higgins I was impressed by his wide knowledge and grasp of the real estate industry in general. So, when I decided to put my Newtown property on the market I gave the task to MyPlace. It was a good choice.   John, and Jim Fleming who, as a Newtown specialist, took on the detailed arrangements and went ahead with energy and enthusiasm. Their sales plan attracted considerable interest and a number of good early offers. Jim telephoned us every day with an update on the progress. And, in due course, with an offer, above our expectations, we accepted.   We could not ask for a better service or result than we received from MyPlace.

Richard Hannigan

John Higgins and Jim Sinos came highly recommended to me to sell my Randwick home. The price achieved made me very happy, we sold for $280,000 above the reserve price which is incredible. The service and strategy throughout the marketing campaign was excellent from both John and Jim. The marketing and photography was at a premium and their market knowledge was fantastic. I was regularly kept in contact through phone calls, emails and quick updates via sms, which suited me perfectly as I reside in Melbourne. I would say their communication skills are impressive and they are a pleasant and enthusiastic company that helped me get a record breaking result! Again, thank you John, Jim and the team at MyPlace.

Lou Panetta

Thank You John and The My Place Team for your outstanding professionalism, skill and exceptional service in selling my property. John you made me feel at ease from our very first meeting and throughout the campaign you calmed me and took away my stress. I regularly called your office, and everyone I spoke to was very helpful, kind and my enquiries were always responded to promptly. So thank you again for an amazing result, I appreciate all your hard work and I couldn't be happier.  I would most certainly recommend your services to anyone and I would most definitely call on you again for your expertise.  

Trish Hicksonam McConnell

Dear John Thank you for all your guidance with selling our property - you made the process stress free!  John thank you for your time and the many phone calls you made to assist me in buying another property.  Best wishes.

Julianne and Brett Flanagan

I would like to express my appreciation for the manner in which you marketed and sold my property at Beaconsfield on 14.8.2013. I am so glad John I let you talk me into going to auction rather than on sale. I could not be more pleased with the outcome. Your marketing methods are absolutely brilliant and the auction could not have been conducted more professionally. I would certainly recommend you to anyone considering selling their property. Once again I thank you for your expertise,people skills, professionalism and of course the great outcome.

" Thank you to the MyPlace Team "

Firstly, thank you for all the assistance you have given us over the past few months.  We decided to use John for the sale of our home, because of his excellent knowledge of our area, proven sales results in Botany and his wonderful service with the prior property management of our home. He is a great family man who, teamed with his wife Sandra, has built MyPlace as a well established local business that has a great reputation. From our initial discussions until settlement, we had found John always had our best interests as a priority and accommodated for our needs. We found John was was professional, efficient and genuinely caring in all aspects of the sale of our home. His communication was constant and we were always keep informed at all stages of our sale. We were so thrilled with the result from the auction. It was a great price and John absolutely worked hard to ensure that we were getting the best price for our home. It was a fantastic outcome and we are so grateful to John for the hard work and dedication he put in to selling our home. I highly recommend John and all the team at MyPlace for any and all of your real estate needs. He is a wealth of local knowledge and has always provided us with honest and accurate information when it came to both the property management and sale of our home. Thank you so much for all your wonderful help with the sale of our home. We really feel that the result we received was because of your amazing hard work and dedication.  Kind Regards, Dayne and Sam

Mum bought the house through John Higgins 17 years ago and when Mum had to make the decision to sell, we knew there was only one agent we wanted.  Again, John exceeded our expectations with his warmth of looking after Mum’s best interest as well as his knowledge of the area.  He organised a cleaner and guided us through the daunting task of selling the family home. I can highly recommend John and his team at MyPlace Estate Agents.  We were thrilled with the result! Scott - Botany

Scott from Botany

John, Well 6 days on from our amazing auction and I write to say thank you to you and your fantastic team.  This result will change our lives as we go on to our next adventure.  We owe it to you but especially David and Jim.  David was there every step of the way keeping us informed and allowing us to be confident of the outcome.  This week he has continued to advise us and as a result we have now purchased our new home in Flinders.   It’s beautiful and it’s our thanks to you and your team.  We are 5 minutes from Nicole and the boys, couldn’t be happier.  Thank you, best wishes to your team.

Jeanette & David Williams

Thank you for your help and again to John, as an agent myself, it is so nice to still see there are genuine ones out there, some I’ve dealt with for sale treat you like a number!

Kylie Meier

Thank you for all your help over the period that we rented with your agency. Your professionalism & helpful nature in every dealing I had with you was really appreciated, especially whilst we were going through all the hassles with the roof. Your office will definitely be a Real Estate we will come to when we are looking to buy our first home.

It is a welcome relief to deal with someone that has the ability to take what could have been a daunting task and turn it into a very pleasant & profitable experience. Displaying nothing less than total professionalism as you guided us through the sales process. We will be forwarding your name to any vendor requiring an Agent that possesses market expertise, out standing people skills together with that extra edge

Ms McDonald

It was refreshing for us to find some one with so much enthusiasm & passion to sell our home. From the beginning we knew you had the energy it needed to sell the property, simply because you believed in the property as much as we did. It was a delight to achieve a price that set a bench mark in the area much to the surprise of many people.

Mr & Mrs Estevens

To market our property by Auction was solely on the professionalism & extensive knowledge and presentation shown by John. He always acted with great empathy at all hours of the day freely giving of his time and advice. On the Auction day we are pleased to say it Sold under the hammer. Another indication that John surpassed our expectations by achieving our goals.

Mr & Mrs Baphis

We would like to thank you for your work renting out the property so quickly, sorting out last minute problems with the bank over the mortgage, and arranging the insurance. Again, due to us being overseas, these were issues which we could not personally attend to. MyPlaces' work undoubtedly avoided a delay in completion of the purchase and rental.

Adrian Bartlett

Thanks so much for all of your hard work, determination and dedication you’ve showed me since our first telephone conversation in February 2009 in relation to the sale of my investment property. Even after we experienced a change of circumstances and decided to pull the property off the market after a few days of advertising last year, I was still convinced you where the right person to deal with. That is why when I engaged you to sell the same property for me this year your patience, sound advice, professional attitude and constant updates made it possible for me to complete this sale in Sydney while I live in Brisbane and was never able to meet you in person. Not to mention all of the work you have organised with trades people during recent renovations in the unit prior to putting the ‘FOR SALE’ sign up.   Your integrity shone through all our dealings and I thank you for giving me outstanding service.

Stella Sarin

Thank you for the fantastic result you achieved for the sale of my property in Alexandria. I appreciated all of your hard work and advice in the sale of my property. Your communication was excellent in terms of following up on potential buyers and in keeping me constantly in the loop. Selling a property is a significant task and can therefore be a stressful experience however calm and confident approach to the process was definitely reassuring to me. I would not hesitate in recommending you to any other potential seller.

John Tanner

We write to thank you and your team sincerely for the high quality service we have received from yourself and MyPlace. There is absolutely no doubt in our minds that you have provided us with excellent service from the time we first began looking at properties in this area; through to our original purchase; while we were interstate when you managed the property on our behalf; and more recently during the sale of our property. Based on our experience with MyPlace we knew that we could rely on you and your team to achieve the most realistic and best possible price for our property and we were not disappointed. From start to finish we found MyPlace to be professional and energetic. In short, you delivered on exactly what you said you would do at every stage. We have been delighted with the outcome of the sale, which was a well-earned record for our particular townhouse complexx and due in large part to the effort of you and your staff. Finally we wish to express our deep appriciation for your honesty and diligence throughout the past ten years of our association. We have dealt with many real estate agencies over years as buyers, sellers, landlords and renters, and you are the best!

We must thank you for your excellent service you provided during the lead up and sale of our Camperdown property several months ago. After our dissatisfaction with lack of results with another realtor, your willingness to learn all about our property, revamp the advertising and sales campaign, and your perseverance in showing our property to prospective buyers over and over again, allowed us to sell at our original goal price despite the deflated market of that time. The buyer remarked to us that she never felt pressured to enter into the sale and that your representation of the property was truthful and open. For this reason, we were able to negotiate a friendly and extremely quick settlement. We want to congratulate you on your professional knowledgeable and totally honest approach to us as vendors and all the potential buyers you so patiently managed.

Tom from Woollahra

" Tenanted before the open! "

We contacted 4 real estate agents looking for someone to manage our property. MyPlace were the only agents to get back to us. They arranged to meet within 48 hours, were professional and had a tenant in before we even had to open for inspection. We secured a rental price higher than expected as well. Very satisfied with their service.

James Hardiman

Jennifer has always looked after us so well. She does so with a smile in a timely fashion. It’s always an easy and happy experience. I would recommend Jennifer to anyone that wants a no nonsense, professional individual looking after their best interests.

Debra from Bronte

It is always a pleasure to deal with Jennifer. She is easy to contact, and very professional and helpful in dealing with any requests or problems.

I would just like to extend my thanks to everyone I have dealt with at MyPlace from purchasing my little unit, through the years of managing the rental and finally selling.  You have all been great.  I never had one moment of problem in all that time.  You are an excellent team and if ever I buy a property in the same area I will be sure to call on you again.  Likewise, if I know anyone looking for something I will refer them to you.  Well done!

A quick note of thanks to you and your team (especially the WONDERFUL Jen !!), for all your sterling work this year.  Been absolutely blown away with the outstanding level of service and super quick response from all the guys at MyPlace.  Thanks for a) selling me the property at a great price and then b) letting the property at a great price.  A win all round !!  Take care and Merry Christmas to you, your team and all your families.  Regards Ed

I just wanted to also thank you both for everything over the past 14 months; you have by far been the best real estate agents I have ever dealt with. There should be more like you guys. Should we move back to the area in the future you will definitely be my first point of contact. I wish you both all the best for 2014.

Luke Thompson

Thank you for your assistance over the years and also to Jennifer and John. I have always found MyPlace staff to be helpful and professional and am also sorry that we could not continue the working relationship.

I had been talking to John for over 6 months and indicated to him I would only sell if I received an offer of over $1.1million.  John had indicated that the market was not at $1.1million and he would keep me informed if the market continued to rise.   True to his word, John phoned me letting me know that I had a buyer interested at that level, and within two weeks, we had sold it $30,000 over my asking price which was truly amazing!  Fantastic result. John come to my house at 8pm that night with the signed contract and we exchanged it on the spot. I would highly recommend John and his team.   Gennadi

My partner & I had orginally started looking at homes in the Botany area around March 2015.  The first home we looked at was with John. At our first meeting he was honest and up front about the vendor requirement & expectation. It was a beautiful home and well priced but unfortunately we were not in a position to purchase.     Between March 2015 - July 2015, we met with a lot of other real estate agents in the area. To say they were rude, dishonest and untrustworthy, would be an under statement. Fast forward to August 2015 and we met John again. Once again he was honest and up front, stating exactly the vendor requirements. The property was in our price range. John & Sandra, having heard of our trouble and need for a home before getting married at the end of the year, assisted us by priortising us & advising us.    We placed the 0.025% deposit and lawyer negoiated contract rates the Monday after the Saturday we saw the home. Unfortuntely I was working that Monday, so John opened up his home to us, being flexible in meeting us at 8pm.     Throughout the entire process I felt comfortable dealing with him, he did not use any under handed tatics that the other agents in the area used.     Thank you John & Sandra from MyPlace. We would recomend sellers and buyers to you any time!

Thanks to the team at MyPlace Real Estate for both managing my investment property prior to sale, and also to John Higgins and Kylie Smith for the marketing and sale of my property at Eastlakes. The whole team are professional, courteous and prompt. The process was as pain-free as I could hope for it to be, I was really pleased with how they marketed the property on-line as well as the advertising material and was able to achieve an offer I accepted within a week of the house going on the market. I would definitely use both the property management and sales teams at MyPlace Real Estate again. I can't recommend John highly enough. He has a wealth of experience, knows his local market, communicates and conveys feedback honestly and with diplomacy but is also motivated to get you the right price. Looking forward to cracking the Moet and having a photo next to the SOLD sign soon!

" Thank you to the MyPlace Team "

Firstly, thank you for all the assistance you have given us over the past few months.  We decided to use John for the sale of our home, because of his excellent knowledge of our area, proven sales results in Botany and his wonderful service with the prior property management of our home. He is a great family man who, teamed with his wife Sandra, has built MyPlace as a well established local business that has a great reputation. From our initial discussions until settlement, we had found John always had our best interests as a priority and accommodated for our needs. We found John was was professional, efficient and genuinely caring in all aspects of the sale of our home. His communication was constant and we were always keep informed at all stages of our sale. We were so thrilled with the result from the auction. It was a great price and John absolutely worked hard to ensure that we were getting the best price for our home. It was a fantastic outcome and we are so grateful to John for the hard work and dedication he put in to selling our home. I highly recommend John and all the team at MyPlace for any and all of your real estate needs. He is a wealth of local knowledge and has always provided us with honest and accurate information when it came to both the property management and sale of our home.

A picture tells a thousand words – we were ecstatic! Brad had met John at a number of properties and he mentioned to him that he was selling. John was one of the few agents that actually called him back. He was impressed at how accurate he was with quotes and then the price received on sale. He also remembered him.During the campaign we were continually updated by Andrew with the inspections and the buyers’ interested. He had told us he spent nearly two hours with an interested purchaser the day before auction. They had done their homework and were able to give him all the information he needed. As it turned out – they bought our house!John’s knowledge of the market is so spot on! Predicting the approximate result before the sale. Also, after we agreed to sell, John gave me a list of contacts – painter, removalist, stylist, cleaner. He suggested new lawn! I did everything John suggested in 9 days! He was impressed that we had done everything he suggested. With his humour, I then said, “No pressure, but it is now up to you!”. We were a team and we both did our job at 100%.John is Professional, knowledgeable, honest and has a great sense of humour. Do everything he asks you to do because he has the experience, knowledge and commitment to get you the best price. It has to be a team effort. Kerry Newell

Mum bought the house through John Higgins 17 years ago and when Mum had to make the decision to sell, we knew there was only one agent we wanted.  Again, John exceeded our expectations with his warmth of looking after Mum’s best interest as well as his knowledge of the area.  He organised a cleaner and guided us through the daunting task of selling the family home.

Thank You John and The My Place Team for your outstanding professionalism, skill and exceptional service in selling my property.  John you made me feel at ease from our very first meeting and throughout the campaign you calmed me and took away my stress. I regularly called your office, and everyone I spoke to was very helpful, kind and my enquiries were always responded to promptly.  So thank you again for an amazing result, I appreciate all your hard work and I couldn't be happier.  I would most certainly recommend your services to anyone and I would most definitely call on you again for your expertise.   Best regards, Trish Hickson

John Higgins and Jim Sinos came highly recommended to me to sell my Randwick home. The price achieved made me very happy, we sold for $280,000 above the reserve price which is incredible. The service and strategy throughout the marketing campaign was excellent from both John and Jim. The marketing and photography was at a premium and their market knowledge was fantastic. I was regularly kept in contact through phone calls, emails and quick updates via sms, which suited me perfectly as I reside in Melbourne. I would say their communication skills are impressive and they are a pleasant and enthusiastic company that helped me get a record breaking result! Again, thank you John, Jim and the team at MyPlace.  Regards, Lou Panetta.  

I would like to express my appreciation for the manner in which you marketed and sold my property at Beaconsfield on 14.8.2013. I am so glad John I let you talk me into going to auction rather than on sale. I could not be more pleased with the outcome. Your marketing methods are absolutely brilliant and the auction could not have been conducted more professionally. I would certainly recommend you to anyone considering selling their property. Once again I thank you for your expertise,people skills, professionalism and of course the great outcome.

Thank you to My Place Estate Agents and in particular John Higgins for the efficient sale of our unit.  We had it listed elsewhere for nearly 6 months without a satisfactory result. Yet after listing it with John early in January, he had several keen buyers, and then the sale concluded and the money was in our bank account all by 13th March.  We found the attention to details excellent and John kept us informed at all stages of the process. I would recommend this firm to anyone who needs a Real Estate firm in the Eastern Suburbs.  Alan and Alison Banks.

Hi John and David,  We would just like to thank both of you for achieving the fantastic result in the sale of our property. Your local knowledge, expertise and teamwork was an integral part in choosing My Place real estate to sell our property. In particular, your unrivalled knowledge of the complex was a great contributor to the sale of our property.   All throughout the campaign we were well informed and supported and felt that whenever we were nervous, your calm disposition was comforting. We greatly appreciate the work that was done and we would highly recommend you to anybody selling their property in the future.  Cheers Carina, Sam and Charlotte, Botany  

Carina Sam and Charlotte

I would like to say a very big THANK YOU to you and your staff for the exceptional service you provided me in the sale of my property at Banksia Street Botany in April of this year. This was the first property I had sold and your guidance, knowledge and expertise in the Real Estate Business showed in how you and your staff were always available, returning calls promptly with enthusiasm and kindness, keeping me updated on a daily basis on how the sale was progressing. I was also impressed with the fact that you were willing to help with removalist, cleaners etc., (even though I had already organised this myself) I could only think how other clients would be happy to have this information provided to them. You made what could have been an intimidating and exhausting experience a pleasure. Wishing you all the best for your business future and I know that when I am ready to buy my next property MyPlace  Estate Agents  will be the ONLY Real Estate I will be calling!!

From the first time I met John Higgins I was impressed by his wide knowledge and grasp of the real estate industry in general. So, when I decided to put my Newtown property on the market I gave the task to MyPlace. It was a good choice.   John, and Jim Fleming who, as a Newtown specialist, took on the detailed arrangements and went ahead with energy and enthusiasm. Their sales plan attracted considerable interest and a number of good early offers. Jim telephoned us every day with an update on the progress. And, in due course, with an offer, above our expectations, we accepted.   We could not ask for a better service or result than we received from MyPlace.

Richard Hannigan

My wife and I have now bought and sold our house through John Higgins and his team.  It’s been a pleasure to work with John from both sides of the fence as he seems to completely enjoy what he is doing, and David and James echo that.  His judgment has proved reliable and as a purchaser, I found him refreshingly straightforward.  He and the team have been completely consistent in meeting appointments and commitments and they were extremely reliable as custodians during visits and inspections.  They were also very flexible in adapting to our somewhat aggressive timetable.  A great team to work with.  

Simon Mundy

Thank you for all your help over the period that we rented with your agency.

We would like to thank you for your work renting out the property so quickly, sorting out last minute problems with the bank over the mortgage, and arranging the insurance. Again, due to us being overseas, these were issues which we could not personally attend to. MyPlaces' work undoubtedly avoided a delay in completion of the purchase and rental.

Gareth Williams

John Kept his promise made at the time of listing, I was at all times fully informed, I also felt that I could ring John at any time, to be able to deal with his team was also a delight, they are a hard working, honest group. I hope to use John and his team in the future.
