SOME OF OUR SUCCESS STORIES
Karen Hartley2025-07-08Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We are very appreciative of the excellent service we have received from Ham Kerr Property during the recent purchase of a property in Melbourne. It could have been quite challenging for us as interstate purchasers, but Michael Katsaris has ensured every step of the process has gone smoothly thus far and he has gone above and beyond to ensure we have been kept up to date with how things are progressing as we approach settlement - especially as there are existing tenants who must move prior to settlement. Michael has also guided us with water and electricity connection; as well as arranging access prior to settlement & agreeing to be at a check measure for floor covering on our behalf so that we can have the new floor covering installed the day after settlement. This sort of service and assistance is especially helpful when we are not yet based in Melbourne full time. Communication is excellent and service is professional. We highly recommend Ham Kerr Property. Gerhardus Labuschagne2025-07-02Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Ham Kerr Properties managed our investment property for more than 10 years. They are very professional and easy to deal with. When we decided to sell the property we engaged Franca and Megan. They were honest, knowledgeable and have given us expert guidance through the entire sales process. The property sold quickly and the process was really hassle free. We highly recommend Ham Kerr - Franca and her team! Janet Conroy2025-05-23Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Ham Kerr Property (Franca & Michael) have recently sold a property in Mont Albert on my behalf. Their efforts were handled professionally and with expertise, from the initial marketing and advertising, through to the final sale. Their communication was efficient and their advice proved invaluable. They also made the process appear simple. I have worked with them for many years and continue to do so. I would recommend them as a company with integrity, while having the vendor's interests in mind. Hannah Cooper2025-05-21Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. George was a dream to deal with! He filled our property from the first inspection, so timely with his communication over phone or email. We feel very well looked after and would recommend George any day of the week! Elaine Quek2025-05-15Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I recently sold my house for the first time with Ham Kerr Property. The team provided quality advice and service with great professionalism. I was highly impressed by Michael Katsaris' personable communication with me and he made sure I was informed about everything that happened throughout the process which certainly eased any stress I had. Thank you Ham Kerr team! Sarah C2025-05-10Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Megan and James are amazing agents. Trustworthy, honest, genuine, good communicators and knowledgeable. Christine Kormas2025-04-10Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Outstanding Rental Agent - Tanya Olver As a landlord, finding a reliable and proactive rental agent can make all the difference—and working with Tanya from Ham and Kerr for over 10 years has truly been a seamless and rewarding experience. From the very beginning, Tanya demonstrated professionalism, excellent communication, and a genuine commitment to managing my property as if it were her own. Tanya found high-quality tenants quickly, conducted thorough screenings, and kept me informed every step of the way. What sets Tanya apart is her attention to detail, responsiveness, and ability to handle issues swiftly and efficiently. Maintenance concerns are addressed promptly, rent is collected on time, and routine inspections are done with care and clarity. Thanks to Tanya, I’ve had complete peace of mind knowing my investment is in good hands. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Tanya to any landlord looking for a dependable and dedicated property manager. Katherine Ashby2025-03-21Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. George at HK is an incredible property manager. In 10 years with multiple properties, he is the best we have dealt with. And not just adequate best…. We were surprised by how good he was. Professional, responsive, efficient, helpful. We were nervous when our agency merged with Ham Kerr and our tenants gave notice shortly after. George was amazing for both us and our new tenant. Highly recommend Georgie Millen2025-02-03Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. George Katsaris from Ham Kerr Property does not disappoint. He handled the re-letting of our property seamlessly. Have used other, arguably 'well known' property agencies in the past only to be left disappointed and out of pocket due to poor management. My experience with Hamm Kerr has been seamless. 10/10. k-h tt2024-11-17Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Ham Kerr has looked after our property from 1999 to 2024. For nearly 25 years, they have been property managers dealing with the many tenants and the necessary repairs & maintenance matters. They have been professional throughout. Yes, over that time there have been the occasional lapses in communication and attention to detail. It would be unreal to expect absolute perfection over 25 years; but nothing was major. The property has been well looked after, as much as for us as landlords and we believe with fairness to the tenants. In more recent years, Tanya Senior Portfolio Manager has been excellent in managing the property, keeping us updated regularly. No doubt there has been good support from the "back office" for things to run smoothly. In the second half of 2024, the property was prepared for sale after meeting with Franca, Principal and Diana, Senior Property Executive. Both have been professional throughout the sale period. Diana particularly has worked hard for the sale and in keeping us informed and advising us of developments. Her pleasant down to earth approach, importantly getting to understand our views and her patience was reassuring, eventually securing a successful sale. In the office, Michelle has been very prompt and efficient with all the necessary documents. We have the experience and confidence in highly recommending this team at Ham Kerr Property.
