"Put simply, we would not be homeowners without Angus. We instantly knew he was incredibly knowledgeable, someone we could trust and would help us secure our dream first home. He helped us refine our brief then spent the next few months helping us at every turn. His advice, impressions, relationships with real estate agents and objective market analysis were critical to our decision making. He got us entry into several properties pre-market /off market which proved invaluable. But even at busy open inspections, he would pick up on things we never would. We never felt rushed or taking up too much of his time, even when we were going around in circles on certain things as a couple or changing our price range. He is patient, wise and always listens and respects whatever your final decision on a place may be. We were beyond thrilled with the purchase and price - Angus even popped by with champagne to celebrate that night. His services did not stop there, helping us navigate the settlement period and post purchase inspections. If you are considering engaging Angus, all I can say is, do it - he is efficient, straight talking (so rare!) and will make you feel valued as a client. We enjoyed the process again once we had Angus on our team". Laura & Mike

"Where would we be without Gus? Not in our dream suburb, Balmain, that’s for sure. Even though we both love property, looking to upsize our family home in a white hot market was intimidating and stressful to say the least. After coming in second best on a few homes, and with a toddler, a four month old and busy jobs we decided we needed some expert support. Gus' passion for property is palpable and infectious! He is trustworthy, knowledgeable and perennially available.

He truly went above and beyond in all sorts of ways to make the experience as easy and effective as possible. We felt we had a very picky brief and "style" and he got it really quickly. We are so thrilled with our unique home in the perfect location. It was a last minute battle to the finish line and we couldn't have made it without Gus. Plus, he's just a lovely, friendly guy! Big thanks!” Chloe & Alex.

"We can’t recommend Gus highly enough. Without him, we would never have been able to buy the house we love. Gus was recommended as “the best in the Inner West” and after one phone call we could see why. He was generous with his knowledge, incredibly insightful about the market and instantly understood our brief. We knew he’d add so much value to our search and it turned out he was invaluable.

He was with us at property inspections when we were interested, helped us evaluate the pros and cons and gave detailed valuations. Ultimately, he was our expert sounding board (around the clock) which always gave us the confidence we were making the right decision.

Then came the house we now own, which Gus knew about off-market. Gus kept the estate agent from accepting rival offers and turned around incredibly detailed due diligence. We mean everything. Talking to the builder who did the report, knocked on every neighbour’s door, worked with our solicitor on the contract changes - and so much more". Kate & Richard.

"From day one of engaging Gus at Inner West Nest we knew we were in safe hands. From sitting down at the beginning and developing our brief, to handing over the keys to our first family home, the journey was smooth and so rewarding.

Gus encompasses everything you would want in a Buyer’s Agent with extensive knowledge of the Inner West. His professionalism, strong communication and sheer devotion to our brief was above and beyond what we expected. His attention to detail within the due diligence process on the properties we were interested in was second to none.

Gus ultimately makes property searching fun. No matter if you are single, a couple or a small family like us, time is put back in your hands and stress levels diminish. We are so grateful for Gus and Inner West Nest". Cath & Brad.

"We met Angus 1 month ago and at the time, finding our forever home seemed like a pipe dream and a world of stress. From the moment we met Gus, he set our minds at ease and his expertise and integrity shone through. Buying in this current market was taking its toll on Neil & I, we often lost our joy but that returned once Angus came on board. He helped us regain hope that we might just be able to reach our dream of buying our family in Annandale. Our dream has now been met with our forever home purchased! We could never have done this without Angus! He went above & beyond for us every step of the way. His skills in negotiation were second to none! We sold our home before we bought and Angus was amazing in negotiating so that we moved straight out of our old home into our forever home! Angus’s knowledge of the Inner West & his relationships with all the Real Eatate Agents gave us an advantage! It was obvious how much they respected him as a Buyer’s Advocate and many times we heard the comment you chose the best Buyer’s Advocate to work with. There is no doubt in our minds that the brilliant result we received was because of all of these things at play that come with working with the best of the best!” Mel & Neil.

“The first thing that impressed us about Angus was how carefully and respectfully he listened as we explained what we were looking for in a home. He then gave us the advice we needed but couldn’t see for ourselves: we needed to look at a lot more places to figure out what we really wanted in a home. Having Angus on our side as we undertook the search transformed us from uncertain and overwhelmed novices into confident and knowledgeable Inner West home buyers. In no time at all we came to understand what we really wanted, and in less than a month we were pursuing our first property at auction. The fact that before engaging Angus we’d spent over 6 months searching without making a single offer is evidence of his impact. It was at the deal-making end of the process that he shone brightest. In spite of a frenzied market, he managed to secure a pre-auction purchase for us at a price we would never have been able to negotiate ourselves. We are delighted with our new home and will be forever grateful to Angus for the role he played in making our home ownership dream come true.” Sharon & Scott.

"As recent immigrants from the States, the Australian real estate system was already overwhelming and confusing. Throw in the recent crazy market and pandemic restrictions, and home buying was quickly becoming a frustrating and intimidating process. Finding Gus was an actual godsend. I have never met someone that had a truer passion for his job, completing incredibly thorough, insightful, and detailed responses to our questions, property evaluations, and everything in between. He was incredibly responsive and guided us flawlessly through the process, securing us our dream home in 2 weeks after months of us searching on our own. I’m positive his insider knowledge to the tips and tricks of home buying are what secured us our home in record time. We couldn’t be happier to have Gus on our side, and can’t recommend his services enough". Lacy & Pete.

“Gus was an ally and friend as I went through my journey to buy a property - a journey which was not as straight-forward as I would've hoped! Gus was proactive around next steps throughout the journey and always kept me informed and up to date on activities. Gus always made himself available to look at properties or discuss anything.

Not only did he take the time to understand what I wanted and provided an objective view about a property, I found enormous value in having someone to talk to about the properties I was looking at - the pro's/con's etc! Finally, when push came to shove in the negotiation, Gus was a great ally to have on my side - this process in its own right paid for Gus' services. I would 100% recommend Gus to all of my friends and family, and I am extremely grateful for all that he did for me”. Justin.

"It's impossible to put into words how grateful we are for all of your time, support, guidance and patience over the past few months. You got two property idiots with terrible maths skills from life renters to property owners in what must be record time.

Not just that, but in our ideal suburb, with every box on our dream list ticked. You are a miracle worker. Thank you so much for just going above and beyond every step of the way. It's been an absolute pleasure to meet and work with you". Rach & Nick.

“Gus helped to make what can be a scary process much easier to manage.

We wouldn't have been able to get our dream house without his help. He went above and beyond to help us understand the market, the process and our best approach, working quickly when we found a property that went to auction within a few days.

His expertise during the auction process was also extremely helpful for us. We'd highly recommend  using Inner West Nest and have already recommended him to our friends and family". Annie & Seb.

"Dear Gus, I can never thank you enough for what you have helped my boys and I achieve. Your dedication to my search was unbelievable. Despite being a challenge in such a competitive market, you continued so tirelessly to meet my brief.

 

I'm so grateful that you supported me through this journey, removed all my stress, and ensured I never felt alone on such a potentially daunting journey". Melanie.

“From our first meeting with Gus, to him handing over the keys to our new home, we couldn’t have been more pleased and happy with how he handled our search. Gus was always on brief, alerting us to any new listings, he helped in arranging private inspections, which were so beneficial to see properties before they were packed with people.

 

Gus also liaised with our solicitor and organised building and pest inspections. There were times when we had disappointments, but Gus was always positive and ensured us that we would be successful. Gus helped make this overwhelming process so much easier, he was a true professional and would highly recommend his services as a buyers advocate”. Deb & Steve.

“We couldn't be more thankful for having Angus on our side when buying our home in Sydney. Not only were we searching during a crazy property price boom, but we were doing so from the US. Angus goes well beyond just trying to secure a house. He was equal parts researcher, coach, therapist and negotiator! During the early stage of the process he really invested in truly understanding what we wanted and needed and always gave us the 'warts and all' assessments of each house. He talked to neighbours, measured the length of garages and climbed into roof spaces! His deep knowledge of the inner west, very thorough research and great relationships were invaluable in assessing house values. There were a couple of times when we got caught up in the market craziness and were willing to pay more than a house was worth. A less reputable buying advocate may have agreed to proceed, but Angus told us when he thought the place wasn't worth it and now, with hindsight, we're so grateful for that”. Marshka & Matt.​

“In the middle of the Covid pandemic, and having no success in securing a new home in Balmain, after selling our house in Birchgrove, we decided we needed help! Time was running out and moving up to the Hunter, to our family home was looking pretty imminent! We needed someone who understood our brief and who could be on the ground, in the Balmain area, to help find us our new home. Angus was amazing, from our very first meeting. Attentive, professional and always available to guide us through the process of purchasing our new home. Very happy with the outcome and I can’t recommend him highly enough! He took the stress out of a highly stressful situation. This is our new, fabulous home. Thank you Gus!” Krissy & David.​

“Throughout the entire process, Gus went above and beyond helping me search for, inspect and then secure my first home. He was an extremely diligent, thoughtful, proactive, knowledgeable, reassuring and trustworthy buyer’s advocate. The entire process took only a matter of weeks and I owe it all to Gus”. Georgia.
