“We first met Joe Zucco and Georgie Maggs when we were looking to buy a home. Thanks to Joe’s extensive network, he sourced an off-market property that perfectly matched what we were looking for, allowing us to secure a beautiful new home.
The next step was selling our existing property, and we couldn’t have been happier with the service we received. From our very first conversation about purchasing through to the listing and sale of our home, the entire process was handled with absolute professionalism, clear communication, and genuine care.
Joe Zucco, Georgie Maggs, and Steph Augustynski demonstrated exceptional market knowledge, provided honest and strategic advice, and kept us informed every step of the way. Their attention to detail, responsiveness, and calm guidance made what could have been a stressful experience feel seamless and well managed.
Most importantly, they achieved an outstanding result for our property, exceeding our expectations. We felt completely confident that we were in safe hands throughout the campaign and would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone looking to buy or sell a home.
Thank you for an exceptional result and a truly pleasant experience.”

“We met with Joe and Georgie who gave us a clear indication of what was required in the current market, provided us with a list of things we should address before the marketing campaign and kept us informed at every stage. As a result of following their advice, we had 24 groups attend the first open for inspection, 5 contracts distributed and the property was sold within 8 days at a price which exceeded our expectation. This was the most positive experience with selling over the past 40 years.
