Testimonials

Dowling Belmont achieved top results for my sale. Their sales experience and sound advice throughout the sale process was first class & provided support when i required it the most.

J. Darcy

I would recommend this firm, especially Chris Rowbottom when purchasing this house in 2007 to selling it in 2011 & Nicole McAlpine when using this Real Estate to lease out our house. Thankyou.

Anna Rush

We cannot speak highly enough of Lance Jensen's efforts helping us both before and after the purchase of our new home.

G. & H. Laybutt

Service was excellent and Chris and Lance could not have been more helpful.

R. & K. Harris

We are very glad we chose Dowling Belmont for the sale of our home. We will definitely be recommending them to friends and family.

We initially chose Lance to sell our home for us based upon his enthusiasm he demonstrated at other open houses we had been to. This enthusiasm did not waiver from the time of the first appraisal through to the completed sale. Constant communication and honesty along with a dedication to achieve the result we wanted rather than a focus on a quick commission cheque was a fantastic refreshing change from other experiences we had along the journey. We were never left wondering about his passion or dedication. Well done Lance and best wishes for your future career.

J. & J. Anderson

Maintain the excellent follow-up and general level of service

Mr Howland

Lance was extremely professional. A first class Agent.

D. & K. McGaw

Lance I felt that I had to write you a letter of gratitude thanking you for your professional approach that you have shown in both marketing our house and assisting in finding a suitable new place in which to spend our future years. Unfortunately some real estate agents have instilled a stigma not dissimilar to that of used car salesmen where all too often it is easy to tell the customer what they want to hear and constantly looking for a quick sale with little regard for the consequences that purchasing a property that is not suitable will bring. Both Leslie and myself enjoyed your astute professionalism that was regularly tempered by your relaxed easy going nature which only makes it easy for all venders to openly communicate with you.

Once the decision to sell was made(not a easy decision after 24 happy years there)we evaluated three real estate companies and finally settled to go with Dowlings for a number of reasons, large market presence, preferred web site layout and ease of working around but most importantly it was your representation that impressed us the most.

This decision proved to be correct, your actions such as previewing the house prior to going to market, and your choice of marketing through not only effective but cost effective avenues resulted in offers within the first week of which by also negotiating with the sellers of our new house we were able to both sell and by our old and new properties at pricing levels that pleased all.

Even after the sale had all but been completed you still actively liaised with pest/building inspectors and met with us outside normal business hours to satisfy all concerned.

Lance you made promises at the very start and it was good to see your initial enthusiasm carried through to the end and made your promises be realised.

Kevin & Leslie Tamsett

My wife and I both wanted to sell and buy transitioning straight from one home to the other. We were skeptical of using a real-estate agent, I think most people are, but we got help from Lance Jensen who managed both the sale and purchase for us. As a result, we sold our home in 2 days for significantly more than we expected, negotiated the purchase of a new home for significantly less than the asking price and managed a simultaneous settlement all in all saving us tens of thousands. Now we’re in our new place and have money to play with.

Lance really works for you, he’s such an honest guy, a strong communicator, gives it straight and in non-geek speak. The entire process was as pleasurable as selling a home could possibly be, we didn’t have to stress knowing that our finances were in capable hands. If truth be told, Lance was worth every cent and we still have significantly more in our pocket than we would have if we did not use his services. AAA service could not recommend this guy more highly.

Hi Chris - Jo and I wanted to thank-you for the relentless effort you displayed in the sale of our property. In particular you went above the call of duty to inform us of developments and involve us in marketing strategies. I know how incredibly busy you are, but you made us feel as though we were your only customers. We would thoroughly recommend you to anyone who needs to sell.

Peter & Jo McRae

My brother and I recently sold our home through Lance Jensen at Dowling Belmont Eastlakes. Our circumstances required the property to be moved reasonably quickly and, due to the strategies put in place by Dowling, we sold the house in the first week it went to market (whilst still achieving our target price). We couldn’t have been happier with the service, advice and professionalism displayed by all involved in the Dowling Belmont Eastlake team and have no hesitation in recommending them as your first point of call if you have a property to sell.

Chris Rowbottom was not only a professional but a very pleasant and helpful Agent. He was prompt in replying with our offer—excellent liaison and one could definitely feel that Chris was always willing to be of service. Thank you Chris.

M. Rodrigs

It is my pleasure, and I have no hesitation in recommending Anne Murray to sell your house. Anne worked extremely hard promoting my home through the various channels, and also had several open home inspections. Throughout Anne kept me informed as to the number of buyers and their comments, which I found very reassuring. I found Anne very friendly and approachable but at the same time confident and professional. Thank-you Anne.

J. Cathcart

I would certainly refer Dowling Real Estate Belmont to anyone selling or buying a home. Very prompt attention. Nicholas bent over backwards and was very up front. As I am a woman on my own, he made my side of the journey very easy. He explained everything to me, nothing was a trouble to him. Being new to the area put me in contact with local conveyancer. Always rang to keep me updated. Well done Nicholas. In my opinion there was excellent communication between sales and the ladies in reception, messages always got returned phone calls to me. Sometimes with answers or questions i needed to ask. Dowling at Belmont have my No 1 vote.

J. Musgrave

Chris Rowbottom & his team are very professional and my Wife and I are very happy with the level of service we received.

A. Purcell

Att: Chris Rowbottom "Both my Wife & Myself would like to thank you & Dowling Eastlakes, Belmont for your enthusiasm and professionalism with regards to selling our property. We were very impressed with your advertising campaign and felt confident you would promptly find a buyer for our house. As we had moved interstate before our house was put on the market, you were exceptional in the way you frequently telephoned us of developments and advertising promotions. Your office also forwarded us weekly correspondence, advertising dates and newspaper clippings of the ads for which we were very appreciative. We would have no hesitation in recommending you and your office to any person wishing to sell their property.

D. Jones
