A very satisfied customer
Our experience with Cameron Parker advising us and selling our property in Mernda was second to none.His professionalism and guidance made the whole selling operation a smooth and enjoyable process.
Highly recommend Cameron to anyone thinking of selling a property.
Well worth the effort
My Advocate provided me sound advice on finding the right agent at the right price, advice on presenting the property and kept me up to date with regular phone calls on the progress and final outcomes of the sale process. I believe it is well worth engaging the team at Ian Reid. Show replyHighly Recommended
Ian was very helpful and was excellent in guiding us through the process. Very happy. Thank you. Show replyGreat support at a difficult time
I engaged Ian Reid Vendor Advocates to assist me with the sale of my parents' house when they moved to retirement living. It was an emotional sale and a super-stressful time, and our advocate Cameron Parker was just fantastic all along the way.Before I came across the concept of vendor advocates, I had contacted a handful of local real estate agents and been overwhelmed by sales pitches within two hours. I felt totally unprepared for managing the logistics of the sale, so when someone in our local Good Karma Network mentioned Ian's company, … Read more · 1
I was quick to jump on board. Cam identified three agents with good local records and organised them all to visit for walk-throughs in one afternoon. Then he summarised their pitches and fees, and helped me to decide who to use and what price we might realistically expect. While at the end of the day, the buck stopped with me, it was reassuring to feel like I wasn't alone in that process and I was really grateful for Cam's calm and experience. It took me months after engaging IRVA to actually get the house ready for sale. Cam was endlessly patient while he waited for me to empty everything out, and also supportive of my decision not to put lipstick on the pig that was my parents' house (we sold it empty and as ready for reno, which saved thousands). My family's circumstances meant that the house went on the market just before Christmas, which was obviously not ideal. At Cam's suggestion, we used an EOI process and he did all the negotiating with six prospective bidders. Four dropped out pretty quickly, but two bidders slogged it out all afternoon, with Cam cajoling them each step of the way. By the end of the day, we had a price almost $60k higher than what we'd hoped would be the top bid. Mum and Dad were ecstatic and I was (tbh) deeply relieved it was all over so quickly and painlessly! Given everything that I've needed to deal with in the last six months, I can't overstate how appreciative I am of Cam's knowledge, experience and no-bull**** approach. I don't imagine selling a house is ever stress-free, but Cam's involvement definitely made the difference between me feeling confident and feeling the need to second-guess every decision. I'd strongly recommend engaging a vendor advocate and if ever we sell our house, Cam will definitely be called in to help!Great and very professional service!!
I'm truly thankful to my friend who recommended Ian Reid Vendor Advocates. Despite initial hesitation, speaking with Ian Willian reassured me. He explained their process clearly, making the sale of my house stress-free. With Ian as my advocate, the entire experience was smooth, and I got the best deal. I highly recommend Ian Reid Vendor Advocates for anyone selling their house. Cheers, RoubaGreat work Floris selling my family home

We cannot thank Cameron Parker and Ian Reid Advocates enough for his market knowledge, professional advice and excellent service during the preparation, listing and final sale of our investment property in what is currently a tough real estate market. Property sold within 12 days and with a short settlement. A little bit of luck on our side, but, a great result overall. Show replyThe best decision I made selling my home was choosing Cameron Parker as my vendor's advocate
I just sold my home for a price well beyond my dreams. So thrilled. Cameron Parker is a true professional. Friendly, no-nonsense and reassuring. He gave me clear advice from the get-go. Sometimes I was surprised by what he advised and questioned him. He always had good reasons and let's face it: he's the expert. I followed his advice and, as a result, I had every home-seller's dream – a bidding war. In a tough market! That is how I got the best price. Very happy and grateful.
