Career Highlights

I bought this property through Joe and selling through Joe. I could had gone to someone else but NO. Why, I went to Joe only. The main reason is that he is trustworthy, honest and very straight forward in his dealing with the clients and customers as I was a customer and client both. I SHALL strongly recommend JOE who is very straight forward and knows what he is talking.

Joe Recep and his team from N G Farah did an outstanding job of selling our apartment for us. Joe and his team were always sensitive  to the fact that selling your home is not something you do every day. They were proactive in anticipating the areas in which we might need help or advice and then gave it willingly and supportively. 

Joe himself working constantly on our behalf, keeping us abreast of how things were progressing and making that extra effort to close the best deal possible for us. He worked with us rather than for us and I would happily recommend Joe and his team to others.

I recently purchased an apartment in Kingsford on behalf of my client from Joe Recep. Joe's knowledge of the local area, his straight advice on what to spend on the renovations and in what order of priority, recent comparable sales and how they compare with the property he was selling, was excellent. 

Through the negotiations, Joe way very straight forward, responded in a very timely manner, and did everything he said he was going to do. Something some selling agents sadly lack.

Joe, and his colleague Rebecca are a credit to the industry, and show the professionalism and integrity that the buyers would hope to expect, but often don't receive.

Thank you Joe, it was a pleasure dealing with you and I look forward to bringing many more clients along to your properties for sale and doing future business with you.

Great agent! Lovely to work with and prompt.

Joe Recep is the ultimate professional and if you're looking for a real estate agent that goes the extra mile to get results, look no further. Joe sold our terrace prior to auction, achieving a price that surpassed our expectations. Who says that selling a property is stressful? Not in our case - Joe guided us through the entire process and it was a fantastic experience. We have no hesitation in recommending him. With Joe by your side, you're in good hands!

Joe Recep was great in understanding and responding to the enormity of selling my parent's family home of over 40 years. Making this sale a positive experience for my parents was a key factor in choosing Joe for the job. His approach and communication (and that of his team) was fantastic. Joe kept us all informed at all times, was fully aware of the market and its movements and we felt confident in his knowledge and experience at the time important decisions needed to be made. I would highly recommend Joe and his team and thank them for their continued efforts post-sale as the settlement date approaches. 

Vendor of 2 Goodrich Avenue, Kingsford

 

I dont often do reveiws but I'll make an exception in this case as i was impressed with the job Joe and Tara had done.  As a builder/developer I get to deal with agents both at purchase and at the sale of my properties, so I know a good agent when I encounter one. 

Joe was spot on with his valuation and for better or worse told me his honest opinion throughout the selling process. The properties were very well marketed, there was always a good turn up at open houses... even on a Thursday. All potential purchasers were contacted afterwoods (not just name and number takers).
 
I got a record price for a duplex in Eastlakes. What else can I say!

Joe, thank you for acheiving an amazing result for us, we are extremely happy with you and your teams communication and dedication to ensuring the best possible outcome. Thanks Joe and we wish you all the best.

Joe, thank you for your honesty and professionalism in assisting us to make what was otherwise a stressful campaign, with another agent, into a satisfying outcome for our family. After months of campaigning and two failed auctions with another agent, having reached out to you, you were able to formulate a strategy and set a realistic benchmark to work with and achieve the result required from the outset. The fact that with all the stress of the previous campaign, you were able to achieve such a great result out of your local area and in just 72 hours, is a testament to your hard work, attitude and determination to prove it was always possible. Having bought and sold so many properties in the past, it is in the difficult situations, not the good times, where you seperate the good agents from the rest.

I would also like to thank you for the work you did to facilitate a very quick sale of my unit in Kingsford, I was very pleased with the price and more so with the time turn around in getting contracts exchanged within a week of giving you the property to sell. 

As you are aware I was, and still am, going through a fairly bleak time in my life and coupled with living interstate, your advice and confidence at the time I decided to sell took a huge load off of my mind. I was kept informed by both your competent 'sidekick' Tara and the solicitors you recommended, to the point that they allayed any fears I may have had with the property, but at the same time not intruding on my private life. 

Thanks again and also pass my thanks on to Tara and trust you will have continued success throughout your career.

I could not have been any happier with the service that Joe provided with the task of selling our family home of 37 years. From my first meeting with Joe, I found him to be confident, professional and very considerate of our needs, which was vitally important due to the recent passing of my mother. Joe took care of everything from start to finish and his clear communication, timeline/ schedule of inspections and feedback was excellent. I was also more than happy with the sale price!

Above all else I found Joe to be a person of great character, very likeable and easy to deal with. His passion, expertise and proven sales performance in the local real estate market is clearly second to none. I would not hesitate in recommending Joe to anyone needing to sell in the area. He did a fantastic job!

Joe was the person we originally bought the unit from. He was amazing - squeezing the last dollar from me when purchasing it. After trying to sell the unit about a year ago without the results I had been expecting I took the unit of the market. When looking for an agent to represent me this time, I wanted someone like Joe to look after my best interests. I was delighted when I found Joe again and couldn't be happier with the result - he got me a price well over my expectations. I couldn't be more delighted

My wife and I recently engaged the services of Mr Joe Recep, from N G Farah, for the sale of our unit in Kingsford. 

Selling our unit was a major decision for us, as we have been in our current residence since 2009. Having considered several agencies, we appointed Mr Recep as our agent.

Mr Recep’s professionalism, integrity and composed approach allowed for us to focus on other important banking and social matters during what can be a very stressful time, notwithstanding the fact that we achieved a better than expected financial outcome.

I have no hesitation in recommending Mr Recep to anyone who would require his expertise and assistance in selling their property.

Stuart Miles

 

If you're selling in and around Kingsford then call Joe and his team at N G Farah. Responsive and communicative, got the price we wanted, and gave realistic and sound advice. Very happy with the results and the service. Thanks Joe!

I wish to congratulate you and your team on a job well done.

The property was successfully sold at auction with an excellent price. This is only possible due to your confidence, reliability, consistency, knowledge of the local housing market, 110 percent effort over four weeks of a gruelling marketing campaign. Most importantly, your communication ability to understand your clients.

You are a credit to N G Farah. I have no hesitation in recommending you to your prospective customers

Lawrence Tong

 

I want to thank you so much for handling the sale of my property.

It was a pleasure dealing with you, from the start of the campaign to a sale in just 10 days.

You kept me informed throughout, with follow-up and feedback after each open home.

I was extremely happy with the final sale price, which exceeded my expectations, prior to the auction.

I would have no hesitation, in recommending you & your team at N G Farah, for your efficiency, professionalism and experience.

Looking forward to dealing with you again in the future.

Greg Howard

 

We thank you for your enthusiasm and professionalism whilst selling our property, you made a seemingly daunting process of selling our property, effortless for us.   

You managed to keep us constantly informed about the progress of our sale, from day one through until settlement. Your expertise of the eastern suburbs property market was evident in our dealings with you and contributed toward a successful sale for us.

We really appreciate your assistance and we would be more than happy to recommend yourself and N G Farah Kingsford to any prospective sellers.

Tara & Ashley

 

Thank you again for selling our property. You were very professional from the beginning to the end of the sale process and achieved an excellent price for the area. We are very happy with the price achieved for the property and would recommend Joe to anyone considering selling. N G Farah was our choice right from the start with a good market share in the area and a strong database of buyers.
