We have been buying, subdividing, building and selling real estate for 20 years now. We live up in the Hunter Valley area. We hired Michael to search, evaluate and negotiate a property for us as a family home when we were in Sydney. As Michael knows the Sydney real estate market like the back of his hand, he went in to negotiate against the real estate agent and the result was amazing to say the least.

The negotiation took about 6 days of offers and counter offers in battle with the agent. Michael negotiated the property down from $1,350,000 to an incredible $1,175,000 saving us a whopping $175,000! If you are looking to buy a property make sure Michael is looking after your property buying needs. If you're not using him you'll pay more than you have to.

Caring for a young family and both of us working, we had no time or the expertise to build a great investment portfolio. So we hired the professionals at VIP Portfolio.

They delivered to us an incredible 1 Bedroom apartment that was 73 sqm internally with ocean views and only 20 metres walk to Coogee beach. Michael's auction tactics were incredible and we purchased the property with fierce competition for $547,000 and it rents for $550 a week.

It was a perfect 1st investment property purchase and we will certainly be using VIP Portfolio to buy our next investment property.

Engaging Michael for what was going to be a very competitive auction was the best move I could have made. He suggested we try and secure the property prior to auction and it nearly came off - the vendor seriously considered his well structured offer but decided to continue with the auction.

Michael sat down with us before the auction to discuss his strategy and what I realised was that I had a huge advantage over all the other buyers bidding on their own at the auction. Michael's knowledge of the auction process and professionalism made me feel so confident. During the auction Michael was all class and he implemented his strategy to perfection and as a result we won the auction! Not only did we win the auction his tactics also saved me $64,000.

Using VIP Portfolio was such a cost effective way of handling the most important part of the buying process - the negotiation. I would have paid double for their services.

VIP Portfolio's buying service is a must for people when looking to buy. Being a time-poor professional with a family, and having no time, it is very difficult to purchase a family home.

I wanted the best outcome and Michael gave me the confidence to achieve that outcome. He went above and beyond, and he achieved what I wanted and more.

He managed to save me so much more than his minimal fee.

I will not buy another property without VIP Portfolio being involved.

Thanks again Michael and the team, I'm glad it was you under that pressure not me.

VIP Porfolio took all the fuss and hard work out of buying my first home. As a young woman I felt more confident about the whole process knowing I had someone helping me and doing all the work on my behalf.

They made it a completely stress free experience for me and kept me informed and in control throughout the whole experience and on top of all that they saved me money!

They are great honest people who provide a fantastic service and I have no hesitations in recommending their services to anyone in the property market.

I had been in the market to buy my first prestige home for over 6 months! Calling agents, turning up to inspections week in, week out, hitting the paper and knowing the courier like the back of my hand.  Going to Auctions without even making a bid. What a waste of time.

My first call to the Michael's was late one night when I was just over it.

The very next morning Michael called and arranged Coffee, their shout!

Chattered for about an hour and went though my criteria, all was smooth sailing. Several suggestions were made over coffee and by the end of the week the list of properties they had viewed on my behalf started to accumulate.

It only took a couple of weeks before we had narrowed down some serious potentials. With finance already approved the negotiations began. 'I did nothing'. They did it all!

They found the right place at the right price and no we didn't pay the advertised price!

I was able to call the Michael's at anytime - very early, very late. Michael was on call for us, would pop over and do all the work for us.

Now we are in our new home and very happy. If only I knew about this sooner.

I had spent a good 12 months searching for a home, getting frustrated and disappointed with the whole buying process. Then life gets in the way so you stop searching. VIP Portfolio listened to my frustrations and concerns and got me back on track. Within 10 days they had found the home of my dreams. I couldn't believe it. The asking price was out of my budget and VIP Portfolio negotiated down to a price that was in my budget. I could never have done that in a million years.

Without VIP Portfolio I would be still searching and I would never have found such an amazing unit like these guys did for me. My friends cannot believe how amazing my unit is for the price I paid. They all say I stole it.

VIP Portfolio lived up to their claims and certainly saved me time stress and money.

I would like to thank you for your commitment and dedication towards finding my dream home. You took the stress out of not only buying the property and dealing with the solicitors and agents, but also arranged an excellent finance package suited to my needs. Your customer service goes beyond any experience I have ever had. You kept me well informed at all times to ensure that I ended up with a beautiful home at a bargain price. Rest assured, I will be recommending you to friends and family.

Thanks again, I don't know how I will ever repay you!!
