No hesitation in recommending both Bartrop Real Estate and Thomas Reardon

About to go on holiday, Bartrop’s representative Thomas Reardon provided me with the confidence that his company would follow through with the marketing/sales program for my property. Whilst I was enjoying my holiday his strategy worked as the property was sold before my return from holiday. I have no hesitation in recommending both Bartrop Real Estate and Thomas Reardon to manage the sale of your property.
