Jeremy and Allison have been a great team supporting us throughout our auction.

Jeremy has a great understanding and commercial knowledge of the property market, especially around the local area, he knew all the potential buyers and hands-on approach gave us added insights. He is experienced and was able to guide us in pricing the property appropriately and getting the property sold during a challenging time in the market. Giving good advice throughout my engagement with him. Allison was lovely to deal with, providing assurance as we progress to auction day and always on hand to answer any questions. Well done and nice touch on the coffee van!

We chose Tim for his auctioneering skills and our expectations were met. Tim also has a team who are vital to the whole process. Thank you Tim, Spring Chen, Monique, and a five star for Allison, who responds to every email and phone call promptly, and happily ensures that everything runs smoothly.

Vendor - 19A Banool Road, Surrey Hills - June 2021

Tim, Spring, Harley, Allison, Bianca & Monique

I can't thank you enough for your hard work and never giving up on my home. I realise it is a very different market at the moment with lots of little quirks and hurdles along the way and throwing in the Silly Season didn't help - WOW what a year it has been for everyone.

I know it was tough - Tim and Spring both had to work sooooo hard yesterday with the 2 bidders, but a great outcome not only for me but the buyers, they both seem lovely it was so nice to meet them after the auction.

Ken and myself wish you all the very best for the coming Season Festivities and a fabulous New Year to look ahead to with lots of joy and happiness.

Ros Greenwood and Ken Richards - December 2020

I first met Tim when he was starting out in real estate. It was because of the impression he made on me (at that time) that I convinced my siblings to commission Fletchers Real Estate to sell our family home of over 50 years (16 Thomas Street Box Hill South) following the passing of my mother and father in July 2019/August 2020.

Fair to say that the team made a wonderful impression on the family and made a very difficult time much easier for us. Tim and the team were compassionate; genuinely caring; highly efficient and extremely professional. All staff were highly attentive and nothing was too much trouble. The advice provided in the weeks leading up to auction proved to be invaluable.

Robert, your team (Heavyside) is hardworking and dedicated and are an absolute credit to the industry, your business and most importantly, themselves.

I wanted to take the time out to notify you directly of their wonderful work. I hope they are recognised accordingly. I lead a sales team in a service industry and I know how important feedback (good, bad or indifferent) is to a business.

I will happily share my wonderful experience with others.

Vendor - 16 Thomas Street, Box Hill South - December 2020

Allison, thank you for going out of your way, above and beyond to accommodate and supporting me time and time again pre-campaign! The auction would not have gone ahead last Saturday if it wasn’t for everything you did to help me get it online.

Monica Chen - December 2020

I recall speaking with you on the phone to arrange my first meeting with Tim. You were very welcoming and friendly.

Later I took a couple of calls from you while driving back to Black Rock, and I became aware of your deep level of empathy and genuine concern. You spoke to me as a valued person.

Tim surely has a great PA on his team.

Many thanks for your compassion and sensitivity Allison.

Clive Simpson - September 2019

I am blown away at how quickly everything has been done! Truly amazing what has happened since Monday night. I am so impressed, thank you so much to yourself and Tim. Very happy.

Claire Spellman - May 2019

We would like you to thank them both, Tim and Ben, as well as their teams for their fantastic work ethic, integrity, trustworthy and informative and extensive knowledge. Allison Miller was all the above and we would like to thank her for keeping us up to date with all her emails. The added marketing exposure via the different media from Tim and Ben gave us even more confidence to extract the best possible price. I could go on forever but there is only one real estate agency I would ever deal with is Fletchers. You guys are second no none and your competition have noting on your staff. We are extremely happy and will refer your team to at any opportunity we get.

Thank you so much.

Paul and Dee Bugeja

Tim, Allison and the team were a pleasure to deal with and we would highly recommend their great service and professional advice.

J & R Macey

Thank you so much to you and all of the team at Fletchers. From first contact with Tim, he was sensitive, fair and responsive to our needs. Collectively Fletchers presented a stress free approach to selling our Mother's home. I appreciated your regular contact, Harley's updates and the helpful advice. Refreshingly, there were no dodgy tactics or game playing on auction day. Outstanding honest sales skills by Tim balanced with a good sense of humour. Throughout you were careful to acknowledge our mother and her needs. I am happy to recommend Fletchers unconditionally. On behalf of my brothers I appreciate the hard work that yielded a great result.

Dr Paul McShane

Team Fletchers, which includes Allison, Tim and Albert provided an outstanding service to myself and my other siblings. Their professionalism, expertise and calmness made the selling of my mother's property a stress free procedure. All my calls were returned promptly, their feedback on open for inspections was fabulous, and Albert understood the emotional issues we had with the property. I cannot recommend highly enough this dedicated team at Fletchers. A few times I said to Albert "How do you do this job, with so many things going on?" and he always answered "I could not imagine doing anything else - I love this job". And it showed. Thank you so much for not only the outstanding result of sale of the property, but also your caring and sympathetic handling of our sale.

Yvonne Charles & Maree Kukuruzovic

Tim, Allison and Team at Fletchers – Thank you for a great result on Saturday on behalf of my mother. Tim Heavyside magnificently negotiated a great result and everyone at Fletchers are easy and great to deal with which made life a lot easier.

Ms J Truscott

Selling our property was perhaps the most emotional and demanding experience I have ever undertaken by myself and Tim and his team at Fletchers- Allison, Rick, Emma, Annie minimized the stress for me with a very successful marketing campaign - achieving the best possible result for me. Follow up and clear communication throughout the process was consistent and very professional in looking after my interests. I selected Tim Heavyside at Fletchers because of his reputation as a highly skilled and experienced Auctioneer and this was certainly demonstrated on the day as he achieved the top price. I am very grateful to you Tim and your team for all your efforts and hard work that went into selling my property.

Anne

From the first meeting with Fletchers, particularly with Tim Heavyside, I was impressed with his honesty and intimate knowledge of the local market and process required for a maximum result. Once appointed, we received professional, caring and friendly communication and support throughout the whole sale process. Tim’s team at Fletchers were amazing. Nothing was ever too much trouble and they were so competent in their advice and guidance. The auction conducted by Tim was faultless. His understanding of the audience and bidding process was absolutely first class. Even following the successful result, the follow-up and continued involvement of Tim and his team of Annie and Allison in particular, simply sensational. If ever we are in the same position again, we will not be looking further than Team Heavyside at Fletchers.

Richard & Jean

We were impressed with Tim and his impressive team of Rick, Emma and Allison. The team were very responsive to our requests, interests and supported us very well throughout the sales process. With excellent communication, necessary as we sold while holidaying, we knew exactly where sale was at. Tim is an excellent, honest and communicative agent and we would happily recommend him and his team. Thanks for a job well done.

Bettina & Anthony

Tim Heavyside’s team ran our campaign like clockwork while we were on holiday in Canada for three weeks. They clearly understood and executed their roles with precision, worked cohesively, and Tim worked very hard as auctioneer to achieve a strong result for us. Special thanks to Allison, who was our key contact at Fletchers. She really understands the importance of timely communication as a key element of customer service. We were very happy with the result. Thanks to Tim and the Heavyside team!

Barbara

Recently we engaged Tim and Fletchers to sell our mother’s property. We were extremely satisfied with the entire process. From the initial meeting with our elderly mother, Tim was kind and patient describing process to her. The whole campaign was streamlined and ran smoothly from start to finish. We achieved an excellent price upon auction and could not fault the entire sales team on the day of the auction, or during the campaign. All staff are dedicated professionals and I will be recommending Fletchers in the future to friends and family. Thanks Tim and Co. Special thanks to Allison!!

Lois, Peter & Kerry

Barb and I would like to thank you for your vital ‘back room support’ during these past several weeks. We have been extremely grateful for your very efficient responses to any of our queries / emails and your management of all the editing of the various documents. Having you in the background was very reassuring so thank you so much for all your efforts.

Nitsa & John

Commitment, Passion and Excellence = Team Heavyside. Tim and his team have the three qualities that ensure an outstanding result in the sale of a home – commitment, passion and excellence. There is no substitute for commitment towards your property and Tim is committed 100%. His approach to the sale and presentation of our home is no less than if it were his own home. From discussions on presentation to attendance at open for inspections to status updates to final negotiations, Tim gave us his all – day in, day out, late nights and even during sport finals! Passion is the element that goes beyond the 100% commitment and Tim has a passion for real estate. He understands the market, knows what buyers want and has an innate insight into their psychology. He has a genuine respect and interest in what buyers have to say and has a talent in translating their commentary towards engaging elements of your home. It is Tim’s insight that sets him apart from all other agents and it is Tim’s passion that makes the difference between a good sale price and an outstanding sale price. Finally, excellence is what Tim’s team achieves – it is the Fletchers team that ensure all the details are perfect behind the scenes. Everything is proactively presented so as a Vendor you have total confidence that the process runs smoothly and efficiently. Rick Volpi and Allison Miller are a delight and pleasure to work with – and whilst appearing courteous and patient on the outside, they are the diligent force behind the Tim Heavyside team – it is no small thanks to them that Tim is able to focus on what he does best. We are delighted to have had Team Heavyside represent us in the sale of our home and have no hesitation in recommending them to prospective Vendors.

Omnia

Thank you to Allison Miller, Tim Heavyside, Rick Volpi and all at Fletchers for your hard work and professional manner in the auction of my mother's property. My family and I are pleased with the result and wish to congratulate your team on a job "well done". It was a pleasure dealing with your company and we will recommend your services.

Thank you once again for all your efforts and professionalism.

Satisfied Vendors

First of all, I am delighted with the outcome of the auction on Saturday, especially as Tim was able to surpass my reserve price. Tim's team on Saturday exceeded all my expectations, beginning with the coffee van that put all participants in a good, relaxed mode, followed by ensuring all those who had expressed an interest in my property were ready to participate in the auction. Also, once the auction had been concluded the team continued to follow up with potential buyers.

I was also really impressed with the way Anna O'Malley and Allison Miller coordinated all of the advertising preparations and patiently communicated with me leading up to the auction.

Most important of all, Tim's ability to negotiate with the buyer after the property was passed in to secure the sale, not only above the reserve price, but he ensured that the buyer was also delighted to have purchased the property. A number of my friends came up to me after the auction to say what an excellent professional job he did on the day with his team and we are very happy to recommend you and Fletchers to others.

Jenny Graham & Richard Clifton-Jones

On behalf of my father, sister and brother, I wanted to thank Tim Heavyside and all the team for a fantastic result on Saturday. We were all impressed with the professionalism of the team; Allison Miller managed the advertising campaign for our property most efficiently, especially given our tight schedule, and the detail in Rick Volpi's weekly reports, as well as his regular phone calls, kept us constantly informed of all developments.

This was always going to be a difficult process but Tim, and his team, made it relatively stress-free!

Michael Moxham

I would just like to thank Fletchers Real Estate Canterbury, in particular Tim Heavyside our auctioneer, Allison Miller, Rick Volpi and the marketing team for the preparation and the excellent sale result of our property. We were very impressed by their professionalism, attention to detail and personal service. We have been clients of Tim Heavyside and Fletchers for the past ten years and we would have no hesitation in recommending their services.

Brian & Raelene

Thanks Tim and team for all you have done to achieve the exceptional price that we got for our property at 2 Flinders Ave Canterbury on the weekend of the 19th October 2013. We did set a high benchmark in terms of price and we really thought that we would be struggling to achieve this because of the huge amount of quality properties on auction on that particular weekend. The price we got was $100,000 over our reserve and we still can’t believe it. The team in the last few weeks, particularly Allison Miller, gave us support, showed dedication to the job and professionalism. She was always at hand to discuss and resolve any issues. The ongoing weekly communication we had both in writing and verbal from Tim and his team gave us a true understanding of the current market situation in the lead up to the auction day. This kept us in touch with reality which we found useful. I would have no hesitation in recommending Tim and his team to anyone thinking of selling their property.

Steve & Helen Ficatas

We first discovered Tim Heavyside of Fletchers on the internet whilst watching him conduct a virtual tour of a property for sale. We were immediately attracted to his friendly and professional style of marketing and instructed him to market our property in Surrey Hills. At all times Tim was supported by a team who marketed our property in a well organised campaign which enabled deadlines to be met but retained the flexibility to incorporate our particular ideas. With the same friendly yet professional style the team was always respectful in carrying out Tim's marketing plan, and provided us with excellent feedback. Special thanks to Albert, Michelle and Allison for their hard work and friendly support. With his friendly style and sense of humour we would recommend Tim and his very supportive team to anyone looking to sell a property. Many thanks Team Heavyside.

Ross and Gil Thomson

So happy with the result today and knew that if we picked a professional team, we would get a great result! We are rapt at the result and yet to come down to earth! We loved Tim's patience during the auction and the pace that he used to allow the bidders time to consider their bids. We appreciated Albert's communication and follow up and Allison's friendliness and professionalism. We really enjoyed the experience with Fletchers, the exceptional teamwork from everyone who contributed towards our sale, and of course we are happy with the great result.

Moira & Bill

The Fletchers team is very professional and worked efficiently throughout the sales process. We really appreciate that the process to sell went so smoothly and want to say thanks to the whole team. In particular Allison was always on hand to answer any questions if needed and Albert was friendly, knowledgeable and positive about the process. Lastly a big thanks to Tim. He is passionate, honest and knowledgeable. He will work to obtain the best sale price with a high level of integrity. He gave us the confidence that he would get the price that he possibly could and in the end his experience and persistence got us the best price possible on the day. Thanks Tim and the team!

Satisfied Vendors

Thanks to the complete team at Fletchers, I was able to achieve a selling price beyond my expectations, due to the due diligence of the selling agents Tim Heavyside and Mark Fletcher, as well as the wonderful support staff, including Allison Miller. The total experience was extremely pleasing and satisfying. Throughout the campaign I always believed that my best interests were being taken into consideration and that every effort was being made to achieve the best possible outcome. I would happily recommend Fletchers to prospective vendors.

Len Kelley

I just want to say how happy and grateful I am for all of Tim Heavyside and Albert Hazelden's hard work through my campaign. From that first meeting with Tim, in January, until our sips of champagne last Saturday, everything was positive, everything was “no trouble" and everyone was so patient with me. Tim has such a great team behind him, and all the tradies he sent to fix up my mess were fantastic. They were reliable, professional, experienced and very friendly. There was no “pain” in having a house full of workmen nearly every day for two weeks. They all had one goal and that was to do the best job for me so I could get the best price at auction. Selling your house is one of the biggest decisions we make, but choosing which real estate agent is even bigger. Thank you Tim and Albert for a great experience and a great result. And a special mention for Allison Miller. She is such an asset to the team. Every time I picked up the phone, I knew she would help me with whatever I needed. Anyone I know of, who is selling or buying, only Fletchers will be recommended.

Elizabeth Chin

Thanks Allison for your assistance, prompt attention and help during our campaign. It was all appreciated.  I look forward to working with you again.

Michael Brick

It was a pleasure working with Tim Heavyside during the whole sales process. Fletchers did a very good job in marketing the property, amd also a very good job on the day of the auction. It has also been a pleasure working  with Allison Miller, and all the team at Fletchers.

Ian Robinson

I had purchased this home through Tim Heavyside and was so impressed that it was a no brainer to ask him to sell it for me years later! I couldn't have had an easier campaign selling my home than I had with Tim and his amazing team of Albert Hazelden, Michelle Haines, Allison Miller and Anna O'Malley. Their advice and wisdom was most appreciated, from open inspections to auction day, the experience was seamless and highly professional.

Melissa

Tim Heavyside worked very hard and did a fantastic job - we were thrilled with the result. I just wanted to say how much I appreciated the contact and support that Allison provided, clearly a team effort but still she made it feel very personal and for this I am truly grateful. Best wishes Allison.

Donna

We are very pleased with the result that we got, the house sold for a nice figure above our expectations. The whole process was very seamless for us and we were not left wondering what the next steps were.  All of the steps in the process were handled in a friendly and supportive manner and with deft coordination by Allison Miller of Fletchers. We received regular feedback as to the progress of our campaign and this was helpful with focusing our efforts in the presentation and response to queries from potential purchasers. Selling by auction can be a stressful experience, but that wasn't the case in the sale of our home. We would recommend Fletchers real estate in general, and the team of Tim Heavyside and Allison Miller in particular.
