| "We purchased our unit through Drummond Real Estate in 1987. We were so pleased with the service we got from Peter Drummond that when the time came to sell in 2010, we had no hesitation in engaging D.R.E. to handle the sale. On this occasion we were very happy once again with the professionalism of the Principal, Peter Drummond, the personal attention provided to us, the speed of him finding a buyer and the no-hassle completion of the sale. Based on our experience we would be perfectly happy to recommend Drummond Real Estate to any buyer or seller.

| "Peter Drummond was a breath of fresh air for us after a rather unpleasant experience with an agent selling a home in Melbourne. He was down to earth, straightforward and honest with his dealings with us. He always returned phone calls and also rang to just keep in touch and see how things were progressing. We were shown a range of homes to enable us to make a balanced decision on what to purchase but were not pushed at all. Peter went to alot of trouble to get the home we purchased ready for us to settle on, dealing with another agent and vendor. I would highly recommend Peter Drummond Real Estate. "

Being from out of town, Peter spent an unexpected amount of time driving us around inspecting local properties. His attitude, knowledge and professionalism are way above anything we had experienced previously, something of a benchmark other real estate agents should strive for! Peter is great to deal with.

| "It has been great dealing with Drummond Real Estate. We originally drove past another property with a Drummond billboard out the front and called. The salesperson was very friendly and also suggested that we look at the place we ended up buying. She suggested this, as it was more suited to our needs and price range. The minute we walked in we loved it. At no time was the salesperson pushy or persuasive, just professional and knowledgeable. She continued this type of service until settlement day. Thank you, Danielle Crowe

| "From the time I first made enquiries about selling at Drummond (when I first went on the waiting list at the retirement Village) I have found them most helpful and patient. When my home finally was ready to go on the market, just before Easter 2009 that continued. John made himself available for any questions this First Home Seller had. Odd jobs were arranged to be done for me even when there was no guarantee I would sell through Drummond Real Estate. The readiness for others on the team to stand in for John when he was not available was great.
I was impressed by the internet advertising and the Drummond Community newsletter. Another big plus for me was being given the booklets by Neil Jenman and the fact that Drummond followed these principles. "Don't sign anything" - advise that I've already been able to pass on. These comments are given readily....K Seely "

Michael gave recommendations, but ultimately it was my choice and I was never bullied or hassled. Michael was very professional and has been very informative at all times. Any question I asked he was always very patient and respectful. Now he is selling my next unit. I would recommend Drummond Real Estate to anyone and everyone.

| "I had previously listed my property with 2 other agents. On both occasions I felt that I was being pushed to reduce my asking price and that maybe my property was listed at too high a price. I would always hear negative feedback from the agents after an "Open House" in an effort to encourage me to feel I should drop my price. I did not feel the agent was working with me to get the best price - they just wanted a sale. When listing my property with Drummond my bad experience changed. I met with Michael Williams at my house and then at his office. I advised him what I wanted and we discussed how he could accomodate this - no open houses, no sign - just a fabulous spread on the internet and Michael did the ring around of prospective buyers he had on his list. I was always kept advised of any inspections or updates with the property.
An offer was made well under what Michael knew I wanted - he declined on my behalf and didn't ring me to try to beat me down. Instead he met with the prospective buyer again to get their best possible price then contacted me and we had a sale.
Great result for all concerned.
I highly recommend Drummond Real Estate and especially Michael Williams. If I had 1 or 10 properties for sale I would list them all with Drummond Real Estate. I really would not consider anyone else. I will be recommending them to anyone I know who is buying or selling property.

This service has always been a willingness to see me in the office, to answer my phone calls and to explain anything at all to me. It has at all times been friendly and polite. Mr Peter Drummond took time to visit me at my resident with my grandaughter and keep me informed. When I left the East to live in Perth he continued by phone to keep me fully informed despite the time difference. At all times his staff were willing, polite and friendly. Thank you Peter "

Myra has a great customer service ethos and this is great not only for us landlords but also our tenants.We have never had a unit vacant for more than a week and our tenants love her - she is the best!!
If you want a Property Manager that understands the market and the needs of both the tenant and landlord, you cannot go past Myra at Drummond Real Estate. We wouldn't entrust our properties to anyone else � she is a godsend for us.

| "Our experience with Drummond Albury has been fantastic. We were very happy with the agent's thoroughness and integrity during the valuation. The process of using a working database of "Active" buyers rather than purely trusting market forces on an auction day or a sale period we also found pro-active and positive. The fact that we obtained our desired price without haggling or feeling we were being pushed into a quick sale was refreshing and is all we could have asked for. We therefore have no hesitation in recommending Drummond's to anyone who wants a straight deal and their desired price with everything spelt out along the way. Ph: 0412 649 773 "

| "Re: Michael Williams of Drummond Real Estate
I renovate and sell properties in both Victoria and NSW. I have bought and sold 9 properties in Albury over the last 5 years and for every sale I have used Michael Williams. Drummond Real Estate was recommended to me by an agent I use in Ballarat and I have been very grateful for the recommendation.
In all the time I have been in the Albury market I am yet to find another agent who can match Michael for his professionalism, honesty and principles, knowledge of the market and his incredible pro-activeness. Michael has an incredible depth of customers on his database and is constantly sourcing potential buyers and following them up making sure he is aware of their current requirements so that he can actively match properties for them. Michael is without a doubt one of the most principled agents I have met and I have never had any reason to doubt him.
I am in business to make a profit and I am always conscious of ensuring that I have the best advice, trades, suppliers etc. and I change if I do not perceive that I am receiving good service and value for money. I have kept with Michael because I receive this. Whilst some people believe his fees are high, I look beyond that to the value I receive which far outweighs the fee. The old saying, that you only get what you pay for, could not be more true. I have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Michael Williams to you as I simply never use anyone else. Please feel free to contact me any time if you wish to discuss this reference.
