He has been involved with the sale and purchase of a number of our homes and we have always found him to be an honest, reliable and sincere Real Estate Salesperson. He constantly made himself available at any hour of the day and was always willing to organise a house viewing at short notice. He gave us excellent professional feedback regarding the sale of our home, including an accurate appraisal and worked hard to achieve the best possible price. After the property transaction we did not feel abandoned by Adam, as he cares about his client's and continues to keep in contact. Nothing is too much trouble for Adam and he is always friendly, knowledgeable and efficient in his role. I would have no hesitation in using him for the sale or purchase of another home in the future and have already recommend his services to many of our friends and relatives. Nathan and Kerrie Scoffin
