What our clients say about our property advisory services:

“ They are very approachable and responsive to any queries or communication. They have strong knowledge and negotiation skills. They listened to me, initially, we thought we had plenty of time however with council delays it didn’t turn out that way. We ran into time pressures but throughout Baxter gave me reassurance that it would be ok. They proactively helped me and would think about was right for me and supported me through the process. I never felt they were going to abandon me when things became more urgent or complicated.It’s a great benefit to have an established relationship with DFP. We have developed trust. You can always earn money, but it’s difficult to earn trust and a strong reputation that you are good to work with.”

“..The banks were comfortable with everything that was presented. Given it was my first time, it could have gone either way so I was happy. The terms were as agreed. Any hiccups were overcome without too much trouble. I made sure that I wanted to be involved as much as possible, at each step of the way Matt would break things down and explain where they were at and why. I now have the confidence to go ahead and do more deals.
I was pleasantly surprised by the level of advisory that DFP provided. I would recommend DFP to other Developers and already have…”
