Testimonials

We met Janet whilst inspecting a property that was for sale. We didn’t buy it but were so impressed by her enthusiasm, honesty and “can do” nature we just had to engage her services to sell our home of 27 years. We have not regretted that decision in any way. She kept us fully informed of all enquiries and utilised the internet extensively to give our property maximum exposure. At all times we felt secure as Janet was hard working, honest, straightforward & always had our best interests at heart.

Janet inspected my home and gave me her appraisal which was above my expectations.  She had some fantastic photos taken and did such a good job that it sold on the first day of open house and for a price I would never have imagined.  Janet knew her market and made this such an easy process and kept me well informed of each stage and was always available when I had questions or needed advice. Thank you so much Janet for everything.

Dear Janet, thank you so much for selling my house. From the minute you walked in the door, your honesty, professionalism, presentation and attention to finer details was outstanding. Your knowledge of the area and the market analysis and research you had prepared before we met was extremely helpful and from that stage I knew I had found the person I wanted to sell my house, Janet Houlihan.

Janet worked tirelessly on open homes and inspections and kept me informed at all times on what the market was saying. The marketing and photos were amazing and the “Janet Touch” helped enhance the house. Nothing was ever too much trouble.

Janet’s positive attitude and feedback and interaction with the buyers was “second to none”. A big thank you Janet for selling my house in a month and helping me move onto the next exciting stage of my life. I would thoroughly recommend Janet as The Real Estate Agent to Sell Your House …… she’s the best!

Janet Houlihan of Houlihan Realty Southport was recommended to me by a friend who said “If I needed an honest reliable agent I would always choose Janet Houlihan .” Thankfully I heeded her advice and contacted Janet gave her my full details, price range and basic requirements and asked her to find me a home. Within a week Janet found me a home which had lots of potential but needed plenty of TLC. This was a project I was looking for, a good basic home in a wonderful position.

Not all sales are straightforward and that is where a true professional agent like Janet Houlihan who conducts themselves in an open honest relationship with both the vendor and buyer really excel. We confronted obstacles with a few aspects of the home which needed to be rectified before a satisfactory solution could be reached. Because of Janet’s experience in a difficult situations she worked passionately to achieve a mutually happy ending and thus a rewarding sale all round.

I found Janet Houlihan of Houlihan Realty honest in placing all the facts before myself as a buyer and the vendor extremely professional which instilled confidence that her priority was to achieve a happy outcome for all parties concerned. This is the difference between an agent and a professional honest agent who stakes their reputation on growing their business on repeat sales and recommendations from happy satisfied customers.

I would personally recommend Janet Houlihan to my family, friends and acquaintances as a person who is trustworthy, reliable, honest and who conducts herself and her business in a very professional manner.

We gave Janet strict instructions to sell our house while we were away on holidays! Janet promised that she would. We left on 1 January and returned on the 16th. This was the quietest of times for sales with every one away on their annual holidays.

Janet tirelessly held open homes on the weekends and private inspections at request, making sure our gardens and alfresco areas were pristine. Keeping us informed every step of the way by text, email and phone calls while we were in Darwin.

We returned late on the 16th and lo and behold Janet rings on the 17th and says “Can I pop around, I have a contract for you!!!!” Imagine our surprise and delight. Not only did Janet keep her promise and sell the house but she also managed to get a very good price.

Nearly everyone in Riverside Estate knows Janet and knows how hard she works to make a sale that is both satisfactory to the vendor and the buyer. Thank you Janet, I am almost over the shock of how quickly you sold the house.

Dear Janet, I would like to really thank you for selling my house for me at 9 Josh Court Riverside Estate. I was very impressed with the professional way you conducted the entire sale, and the help you gave me to complete all the transactions. I would have no hesitation in recommending you to anyone contemplating selling their home.

Hi Janet. We wish to express our gratitude for the professional and friendly manner in which you handled the sale of our property. We watched you work tirelessly and were amazed at your energy and enthusiasm. Your overall knowledge was invaluable. We have no hesitation in recommending you to other clients. Thanks again Janet

We cannot recommend Janet Houlihan Realty highly enough ! We had a signed contract for the full asking price within 4 days of listing our property with Janet – you can’t ask for more than that.

But just as important was her enthusiasm and extensive knowledge of the market, plus the sheer hard work that Janet put in on our behalf. Janet is an agent who really works for her client – with great communication skills, she kept us up to date on progress every step of the way. The advice and help she provided was invaluable.

Hi Janet, Margaret and I would like to thank you for the sale of our property at Quay South, Emerald Lakes. Years ago we had a fridge magnet that used to look at us 24/7 not thinking that one day we would have need to call on Janet to sell our property. Some months ago when we decided that it was time to sell, a timely letterbox drop from Janet jogged our memory about the fridge magnet. We contacted Janet and just three weeks later our property was sold!!!!! Amazing!!!!!

Janet instilled confidence in us and always believed that the price she set was attainable although we had a slight doubt. She said “ leave that to me that’s my job“ and sure enough she delivered!!!!!

Janet has this amazing ability to be a friend, property manager, confidant and most of all has the utmost integrity and honesty when dealing with people from both sides of the sale. We have no hesitation in recommending Janet Houlihan to any person wishing to sell their property.

When unforeseen circumstances necessitated the sale of my Mother’s property earlier this year, Mum insisted Janet Houlihan be the agent, and I’m very glad she did. Janet not only worked tirelessly to gain the best price for the property but also gave just that bit extra. Knowing the impossible task I faced being in Perth and attempting to ready a house in Qld for sale, Janet suggested cleaners, painters and gardeners she knew from experience, to be trustworthy and thorough, and her recommendations that this work should be undertaken, definitely added value.

Throughout the entire process, Janet kept me informed and up to date. I knew when the house was open for viewing, how many people had been through and whether anyone had shown any real interest. All in all, Janet’s knowledge, professionalism and expertise definitely made what could have easily been a stressful, frustrating experience into one of relative ease, and I would have no hesitation in recommending her as an estate agent to anyone wanting to buy or sell a property.

Hi Janet, We are all very happy all went well with the sale of mums house ,thanks to your great effort achieving a quick sale. You were very helpful and always kept us up to date throughout the sale of the house. Thank you for your hard work and best wishes.

No one could have given better service than Janet. Because I had a time limit to get the property I wanted to buy I was very stressed waiting for a definite contract but I am very happy with the outcome and glad I did it!

We knew Janet was a very good agent through knowing her success in our area. Apart from being very approachable and knowledgeable, her honest communication made for a stress-free sale and subsequent purchase for us and we are very happy in our new home. We will certainly recommend you Janet.

We selected Janet Houlihan to sell our house for the following reasons:

1. Janet has always had a very friendly and visual presence in our area with her signage, car, open houses and on www.realestate.com.au

2. Janet’s friendly and welcoming demeanour makes her approachable and inviting for sellers and buyers

3. Janet is very well researched and up to date with current market research in our area and her presentations reflect this.

4. Janet is extremely professional and organised for the open houses she conducts.

5. Janet’s feedback and reports from weekly open houses were always prompt and accurate.

6. Janet was very highly recommended by friends who had both bought and sold houses through Houlihan Realty

For any buyer and seller I would high recommend Janet Houlihan due to her friendly personality and her high level of professionalism.

Dear Janet. It is with utmost gratitude that I write this e mail. You have been so professional, understanding and your tenacity and positivity through a process that was quite up and down for us, has been remarkable. I can honestly say that we would not have secured the home we really felt was right for us without your guidance, negotiation and integrity.

For anyone reading this, buyer or seller, I have been in various sides of real estate for over 20 years and have only ever met two real estate agents in this time equal to Janet’s calibre. (It’s not surprising she opted for her own business).

I am more than happy to recommend Houlihan Realty to anyone looking to buy or sell, across the entire residential spectrum. Houlihan Realty strive for a win:win without games playing. That’s what we all really want and Janet gets that.

We had our house on the market for 4 months and then along came Janet Houlihan of Houlihan Realty!! Janet sold our house within 10 days of listing it with her. She had more potential buyers through our house in those 10 days than we had in the previous 4 months!

She kept us informed after each open house whether they liked our house or not. Janet is a very professional person and we would highly recommend her to any person who is considering buying or selling a property.

Janet sold our property after only 10 days on the market with her. The very first client she brought was delighted to buy our beautiful home and we are delighted with Janet’s service, speed and honesty. Her understanding of The Vistas is unparalleled by any other agent.
