Andrew and Susan
When we first talked we had been wanting to get on with investing in property for some time. However, with a young family and limited real available time, we struggled to gain any momentum to get it off the ground. Erskine + Owen then took over the process and removed the randomness. After a few sessions to understand your research, targeting and acquisition process, and to brief you on what we were after, you just made it happen, largely without the need for time commitment from us.
You made the due diligence and post purchase renovation process very smooth. All we had to do was effectively reply to emails with decisions. During due diligence there was no stone left unturned, which meant we were very confident about proceeding with the property
Greg and Jenny
When we met we realised that our philosophies about property were congruent with Erskine + Owen, eg: property is a long term venture; it is land that goes up in value.
Erskine + Owen then simply provided a ‘one stop shop’, planning; profiling; search; negotiation (including getting us early access so that we could start renovations prior to settlement); project management of renovation; overseeing of tenancy. You were professional in your approach and presented with credibility from the outset.
We felt very pleased with the properties you presented. We also had a real sense of satisfaction with both properties in that you project managed the renovation, but we were still able to be involved or add our touch if desired.
Coral and Campbell
We decided to use Erskine + Owen because we wanted to buy an investment property but didn’t have the expertise or confidence to do so. We also didn’t want the hassle of dealing with estate agents or tenants.
Erskine + Owen reassured us from the start, solving these problems and making the whole purchasing process easy. You updated us on a regular basis during the search process and, when you did present a property, we had the confidence to go ahead, with the realisation that it was a great investment property for us.
From the time we first viewed the property to the day the tenants moved in was made painless. You removed the “fear factor” that is involved with any house purchase.
