Services
Purchasing residential real estate can be a very exciting process, however it can also be a confusing time for the prospective buyer. We will show you what you need know about the process and your rights so you can secure the right property for you. Should you decide to secure or make an offer on one of our listed properties, we will ask you to confirm the following details, enabling us to help you in the best possible way.
Any special conditions or requests that you may have so that we can inform the vendor property. Once we have the above information, we are in a position to arrange a meeting with the vendor. As sales agents, we can only exchange contracts with a 5 day cooling-off period. The period for withdrawal lasts for 5 working days and allows the purchaser the right to rescind the Contract of Sale for any reason.
In our experience, we have learned that the best price comes from the best preparation. As your real estate partner it is our intention - via this document - to help you maximise your price and to make the sale of your property an enjoyable and rewarding experience. It's important that we keep our eyes on the prize.
Remember, you are committing to a legally binding contract for which there is no cooling-off period. You will want to be certain you understand and agree to what you are signing. Only when you can respond with a Yes to the following statements, should you sign the lease. I know the length of the lease is negotiated before I sign, which means it can be for 6 months, 12 months, or some other period.

Shane made the sale of our property a very relaxed and stress free experience.
Shane and his team were very professional and the listing and sale were carried out seamlessly with no stress and we were able to confidently leave it in Shane's hands to manage. We were kept informed of progress and and the process to follow for the sale and conveyancing. Our sincere thanks for making the experience a good time for us.

Shane is a really personable, enthusiastic and knowledgeable agent. He answered our questions about each property we viewed with him and was also very accommodating in fitting us into his schedule at the last minute. He is very prompt in replying to emails and has been so patient in answering my questions regarding the home-buying process. I highly recommend him to anyone looking to buy.

My wife and I bought an investment property through Shane 7 years ago. During that process we found Shane to be professional, genuine and willing to go above and beyond to help us. We were so impressed we have had our property managed by Uphill and Schaefer and the level of service has always been exemplary. Having now just been through the process of selling a property through Shane, we found that nothing has changed. His communication and authenticity super impressive. Shane handled every aspect of the sale and kept us informed along the way. We will only use Shane and Uphill and Schaefer for

I can't praise Shane high enough. The home was presented beautifully even with Aerial photos.
I worked in Real Estate many years ago, and Shane took over leaving me only to hope it sold by auction that it did. As executor of my late friend of 55 years it was very upsetting for me to see her home empty for so long. It was absolutely trouble free for me and the home was presented wonderfully.

Could not have got any better!
Shane could not have supported us better through a difficult purchase. He was calm, communicative and hard working. The purchase involved several legal issues that had to be resolved before sale which required copious amounts of knowledge and persistence to get the work done. Shane did all the leg work to ensure we knew what was happening at every stage of the process. His communication skills are 5 stars and this in conjunction with his proactive style made our purchase possible.

Relaxed and highly efficient
Shane was a breeze to work with when purchasing our property. He was extremely prompt when responding to emails, texts and phone calls. We loved his down to earth approach which made buying the property an easy decision. He went out of his way to let us view the house for an extended time. We highly recommend Shane.
