Testimonials

We are immensely grateful to David and Victoria for their exceptional service throughout the sale of our home in Glendowie. Their unwavering commitment to professionalism, reliability, strategic planning, and dedication to securing the best outcome for us as sellers were truly remarkable. In a sea of real estate agents, David and Victoria's standout qualities set them apart.

Despite being overseas vendors, they ensured we were kept informed at every stage of the selling journey, providing invaluable peace of mind throughout the process. Their expertise in negotiation, impeccable communication skills, proactive approach, and adept management of various scenarios were highly evident. Navigating an auction campaign in an uncertain market was certainly demanding, but David's and Victoria's experience and expertise eased our concerns. Their guidance and support were indispensable throughout.

Without reservation, we wholeheartedly recommend David and Victoria to anyone in search of real estate professionals who prioritise their clients' best interests above all else. Their extensive experience in managing the often intricate process of selling a property, coupled with their ability to navigate unforeseen events, is truly remarkable. The value they brought to our sale far exceeded our expectations and cannot be quantified.

David Nightingale was recommended to us as being professional, honest, energetic and hard-working for the vendors, and this has been our experience. David and Victoria make an attentive, responsive and trustworthy team who were in constant communication with us. We followed their excellent advice and have been very pleased with the result they achieved at the auction with eleven bidders registered and multiple parties competing to secure the property.

 COMMUNICATION IS KEY!

We are very happy to recommend David and Victoria Nightingale to you if you are considering listing your property for sale.

They have provided us with an excellent professional service enhanced by their long standing real estate experience. They kept us informed every step of the way and guided us with their extensive in-depth knowledge of the current local market. We were delighted to achieve the sale of our Apartment after a 4-week campaign.

Gaspar and Rosemary Sanvicens - St Heliers

I would like to acknowledge and express my sincere appreciation for the manner in which David marketed and sold our property. The property was listed for sale for the first time in over 70 years and there have been many agents wanting to secure the listing over this time.

The situation was a little more complicated than normal, yet despite this he managed to achieve an excellent result on terms very favourable to us. His communication during our association was excellent and he replied instantly and kept us well informed every step of the way. The benefit of his experience and the ability of his team was clearly evident at all times. The fact that he managed to secure over 14 registered buyers at the Auction and I believe 8 individual buyers to bid on the day was a credit to the diligent process he provides.

The decision of who to appoint for the marketing and sale of your property cannot be taken lightly, especially in the upper-end price range. I am happy for other prospective owners to consider my reference as a third party reassurance of the level of service you can enjoy from David Nightingale and his personal team.

David was recommended to me by a friend who had been very pleased with the work he had done selling their house. When you are selling a multi-million dollar home there are plenty of agents that tell you they can deliver a great result, but only a few that can. 

From the very first meeting it was clear that we were talking to someone who is passionate and experienced. What’s more, you don’t just get David, but also his personal support team, and the broader Bayleys group. A key member of the team is his wife Victoria, who is also a formidable salesperson.

Prior to signing a listing David made it clear that we had a role to play in a successful sale, and that included making sure the house was presented and staged nicely, and that we had an adequate marketing budget. So we said to him, if we do that, we expect you to get us a good result.

The rest is history. We had three weekends of well attended open homes, with all leads promptly followed up, two strong offers prior to the close of the set date sale – and more importantly a SOLD sticker on the sign outside our house at a price exceeding our expectations.
