How refreshing and encouraging to find a "salesman" with sincerity, extensive knowledge of subject, generous in time and prepared to "roll up his sleeves" - all attributes in the one person. His communication and encouragement throughout the "waiting" period sustained our confidence and assurance during this time. We are greatly indebted to Wes and his team and consider them as part of our "family". Thanks Wes & Co for a tremendous result and your gentlemanly persona.
David and Patti SingletonI needed to sell my land and I was given Wes's contact via another connection of mine the words used was 'Agent Extraordinaire'. I had to check out if that was true! Wes is extremely knowledgeable about his trade. He come across as a person who knows what he is talking about and backs it up with results. He not only delivered he OVERDELIVERED! He is the best in the WEST!
Jerestene SaherI was referred to Wes after a not so good experience with another local agent. He was very helpful from the outset, talking through all my options and setting realistic expectations. He was very patient and open during covid, working hard for an optimal outcome and I am very pleased with the final sale price. Highly recommended
Sarah McLeodWes was Extremely Professional and easy to deal. Made the process of selling easy and stress free. Wouldn't sell with anyone else. Thank you Wes.
Charlene FordWes is thorough, transparent and extremely hard working. He makes sure he has the facts and figures right to ensure you get the best possible outcome from your sale. We looked forward to hearing from Wes with updates, news and advice regarding our property. We would definitely use his expertise to sell our property again... and send our friends and family to him!
Jane and DaveWes worked for us and with us from our first meeting. He was focussed on obtaining the best price for our home and we were confident that this would be the final outcome. We were thrilled with the result of the online auction. We would not hesitate to recommend Wes as a reliable, trustworthy and professional real estate agent.
Elizabeth and MaxIf you don't have Wes working for you, then you are leaving potential buyers and money on the table.
Darren McRaeThe sale of our first home with Wes Thornton was an amazing experience! The whole process went perfectly and far beyond our expectations! We had recently purchased a new home and wanted to get our current home on the market and sold as quickly as possible, Wes was able to sell our house for more than we were expecting very fast even during a global pandemic when restrictions were making inspections difficult. Selling a house can be a very daunting, especially during a state lockdown but his professionalism, commitment and excellent communication skills really helped us t...
Jason Midgley"I had a few people recommend Wes to me, and am so very fortunate and happy they did! Due to being executor of a will I'd recently sold a few estate properties and had terrible experiences with most of the real estate agents, but Wes is a breath of fresh air. He is honest, genuine, hard-working, committed, reliable, very passionate about real estate and professional - and it's unusual to meet any professional with such integrity and dedication these days. He went above and beyond with every aspect of the sale of my home, sorting out issues I know any other agent woul...
Madison WolfI would like to thank the Real Estate Geelong team and especially Wes for achieving the sale of my home in Highton. I came to Wes at a friend’s recommendation after experiencing many problems with the sale of my home through another agent. Wes was extremely professional and yet approachable at the same time. He instilled the confidence in the sale of my home that I never had with the previous agent and I instantly felt re assured. Most importantly Wes took the time to listen and made sure you were aware of everything that was going on with the sale and were comfortabl...
Sally JenningHaving previously sold a property with Wes there was no hesitation in engaging in Wes to market and sell a second property. Success was achieved after only the second open home, once again procuring an excellent selling price for me. Wes exhibits an honest, down to earth approach when dealing with clients and is extremely reliable and trustworthy, his confidence and knowledge of the property market is clearly evident from the word go. Thanks again Wes, you’re a true legend. Until the next project! Neil
Neil and Jodi WhyteI just want to thank you for the fantastic result you achieved for us in the sale of our house. You achieved exactly what you promised and in 2 weeks just outstanding. I know it is due to your commitment of knowing everything about your product, not just the house but the area it is situated in, the proximity to any assets that are close, in our case the supermarket, the ring road , CBD and schools. Each time you have sold for us I am amazed at what stats you have about the area. Thanks again and till next time we need your help. Regards Paul & Rhonda
Paul & Rhonda Desbrowe-AnnearWayne explains how he could never have achieved the extra $80,000 tax free profit without Wes and Real Estate Geelongs skill to identify what to do and what not to do, how to do it, and then help him finance it. Lets let Wayne tell it as it is. Sold 15th Feb 2019
Wayne HarwoodWes was recommended to us by a friend, and in hindsight I would say it was one of the most important recommendation we have ever acted upon. Wes has more direct experience in property sales and development compared to the typical agent, and this was apparent from the first appraisal meeting. He gave us a much more optimistic opinion of our property's value than other agents, based on the location's potential. Ultimately Wes was able to sell our house to a buyer who was looking to exploit that potential. Throughout the process Wes was open and honest and demon...
Chris FreemanHere Cathy details her experience dealing with Wes from Real Estate Geelong and how Wes achieved $200,000 more for her home in 21 days compared to her previous agent in 97 days. In Cathy’s words she explains how her previous agent use maintenance items to condition her to accept a lower price of $1.050m saying that's probably what it’s worth. Wes was referred by a friend that had exceptional results using Wes and so she asked Wes in to inspect the property. Wes appraised the property at 1.2-1.25m and told Cathy he would absolutely achieve that result. Cathy said she ...
CathyI recently engaged Wes to give some advise and an appraisal on our family home. Wes visited our home and discussed our options using the years of experience he has both in real estate but also in the building industry which allows him to understand the viability of structural changes and repurposing buildings. I found Wes to be very professional in his approach and he made suggestions that would benefit us financially and that we had not previously considered. If you are looking for some real estate advise beyond the normal appraisal and sales campaign options see ...
Ros GledhillThis is part 2 - Sheralee the vendor shares her experience using Wes from Real Estate Geelong on a recent Newcomb sale. This opens up stage two of what Wes does to support his clients where he assists his clients to locate and buy, approach home owners to source property or buy land and assist with advice to build.
SheraleeHere Sheralee, who was extremely nervous briefly shares her experience using Wes from Real Estate Geelong to manage her home sale. Sheralee was extremely grateful for how Wes managed the entire process making the sale as stress free as was possible.
SheraleeJason thought it was weird that Wes would want to lift the asking price of his property when they hadn’t received any firm offers to that date. Wes asked them to trust him as he had a strategy for why he felt it could work. Wes sold the property 3 weeks later. Wes said the interest in the property certainly increased in the new range which is why he is never afraid to lift an asking price when he knows he can justify its worth. 11 times in the last 3 years Wes has lifted the asking price on property and sold it for more. Often this occurs when Wes takes over a property f...
Jason FeldmanHere Jason speaks about how he had 5-7 agents in to appraise his property and why he decided to use Wes from Real Estate Geelong. He goes on to say how Wes’s Building and Construction background, property knowledge and experience made Wes a stand out against all other agents he interviewed. Jason said all real estate agents except Wes are like used car salesman looking for a pay day, their commission. Jason said virtually all of the agents talked down the home suggesting the kitchen, bathroom, ensuite and laundry need to be upgraded to achieve mid 500’s which was their g...
Jason FeldmanHere Susan shares her experience using Wes of Real Estate Geelong to sell her Herne Hill home. She talks about how the entire experience was 10 out 10 and she would only recommend Wes as her agent of choice. The entire process was stress free, easy and Wes exceeded Susan's expectations on price and service. Susan explains how there had been a fair number of people through but no one coming good with the right offer and so instead of lowering the price Wes suggested he would increase the price which he did and sold it in less than 3 weeks.
Susan JonesFor all the time and effort that you invested into making the sale of our property an exciting experience. We especially appreciate the fact that you always took the time to answer any concerns that we had, and always communicated with us, even on the smallest of updates. Your follow, up after the sale of our property became unconditional, has been something that we haven't experienced from a real estate, before now, and has been the " icing on the cake!!!" We no longer need to search for someone to take care of us when we need to sell a property, as we have fin...
Debbie and Milan ParoskiWe are so grateful to have met Wes and had the opportunity to sell our home with him. From our first meeting we felt at ease with Wes and put our complete trust in him. Prior to signing any paperwork, Wes went above and beyond to help us get the property ready for sale and to achieve the best possible outcome. Our house sold after just one open and we truly believe he was the only agent who could have possibly got that record-breaking figure. We are still pinching ourselves with the result as it far exceeded our expectations and the whole experience has been a li...
Brianna and Lachlan White"I initially met Wes whilst he was at an open for inspection at a property he was selling. His professional and easy going manner at that time resulted in me asking him to attend my property to provide his opinion on marketing and selling my home. Wes clearly undertakes substantial research on a property prior to his attendance at initial appointments. His depth of knowledge and in particular his manner resulted in me engaging his services. I was not disappointed in my choice across the advertising, showing and sale of my home. Wes was more than happy to roll up h...
Karen MoyleWes, I just wanted to take the opportunity to thank you for the great job you have done in selling my property. After being with another agent for three months and with only one very low offer in that time, I was feeling very despondent and doubtful that I could sell my property for a reasonable price. But then you were recommended to me, and from our first meeting I felt confident that you would get the job done. You came in with enthusiasm and a great knowledge of real estate in our area. You told me the price that you would get for me, and with a little patienc...
Cathy Desbrowe-AnnearIf you are selling your property and want someone who believes in integrity, honesty and really works hard for the best price of your property Wes is your man, he certainly is ours. Having been in Real Estate myself and know the games some agents tend to play, Wes impressed me right from the start when asked to look at one of our properties for sale. The background work he puts into giving you a realistic price, advises where you could do some small upgrades to be able to gain the most from his selling technique and achieve your desired outcome. Ann Thomson
Ann ThomsonWes is a first class, high caliber real estate agent who achieved a sale price that was $170,000 more than our previous agent could achieve. There is no doubt that real estate is his passion, his knowledge and networking skills enabled us to get an amazing result with no stress and in a very short space of time. Wes knows the marketplace and represented our home on a highly professional level taking the time to thoroughly qualify all perspective buyers before any inspections. Thank you so much Wes, it was a pleasure working with you.
Neil and Jodi WhyteWes was great to work with regarding the sale of our property. Extremely professional, great communication, nothing was too much trouble down to the last detail. Wes approached the sale of our property with great enthusiasm and a demonstrated rapport with all interested parties. Wes is honest and good to his word. A rare commodity these days. I would definitely recommend Wes.
David WhiteI was recommended Wes by my son and I was not disappointed with his market knowledge and commitment to selling my home. He sold it for the amount he said I would get for it. All the way through with the sale it was never any trouble for him to advise me on any information I wanted and was always contactable. I would recommend Wes to anyone knowing he will always look after their best interests. Thanks Wes!
Ellen TrethowanWes is an outstanding professional in every aspect - honest, reliable and hardworking, with great communication skills! He is responsive to calls and thoughtful in his approach. Wes went above and beyond in his support of us, and we felt very confident that Wes was working very hard to achieve the best results he could for us. Highly recommended!!!
Julie Deitrich & Linda Saffron (Vendor)Our country property presented a unique challenge for Wes, as it is completely unlike anything else in the area. We knew it would take time to find the right buyer, and it did, but we got there in the end. When we, the vendors, were feeling down and despondent thinking we would never sell, or at least not for a reasonable price, Wes kept us positive. He was in constant communication with us so we always knew what was happening and what her was doing. We could have sold at a lower price several times, which of course would have been a much easier route for the agent...
Bronwen WhiteWes was a pleasure to deal with. Extremely professional and easy to communicate with. He went above and beyond to get the result we were looking for. Would highly recommend Wes to anyone.
George SamarandacheWill use again. Full knowledge of area. Great advise. No bull.
Ian Trevethan Buyer TestimonialI couldn’t have asked for a better introduction to the world of real-estate – Wes was both patient and generous with his knowledge, taking the time to talk me through all the details of the contract and sale process.
This client prefers to remain privateWes presented himself like no other agent we have dealt with over the years in purchasing and selling property. His honesty and understanding of aspects of good construction with consistent communication and feedback. He achieved our goal in relation to our sell price in a good window of time.
Peter DunnExcellent service great communication looking forward to doing business again! Experienced and knowledge agent, we would recommend them to our friends buyers or sellers.
Mick and VeraWes was 10/10 as an agent he went above and beyond anything we could have expected as a purchaser
Jemma and Josh Readhead (Purchasers)We really appreciated Wes' relational approach and expertise in building. He kept us informed through out the process and was willing to go the extra mile. We enjoyed the experience and were thankful it sold so quickly. We would definitely recommend Wes.
Ben & Elizabeth SaundersWe chose Wes to sell our unit from other estate agents because of his excellent knowledge of the Belmont area, he created a portfolio of the area from many sources and was able to estimate the value of our property and his estimate turned out to be spot on. Wes was very prompt and hard working, available to discuss things and get us answers straight away. If I was looking to sell or even buy another property I would use Wes. Very pleased with his capabilities.
Paul and RhondaWe have found Wes to be hard working, enthusiastic & knowledgeable with regard to the property market. He is very personable and will go the extra mile to get you the result you want.
Ted and Deborah WilsonI would certainly recommend Wes as an agent.Auction result achieved were well in excess of market expectation. This was due to his hard work attracting potential buyers, experience of the area and his understanding of the buildings potential due to his building background. He presents extremely well, is articulate, not aloof, is very professional and creates a relaxed environment to all parties.
Roger GledhillWhen we bought our house in Geelong our agent was Wes Thornton. Though this was not our first time buying house but was the first in Geelong suburb. He is extremely professional and knowledgeable. He has always answered every call or email no matter what time of day or night it was. His professionalism, knowledge and honesty is much respected and appreciated. We never felt that he was just trying to sell us a house, but that he was a mentor to answer my questions and help me to make the best decision for my family. Thanks again Wes for being such a pleasure to ...
Sree Nair & GirishI come from Melbourne but works in Geelong. I have been very impressed by Wes high level of professionalism. He truly goes above and beyond what you would expect from an agent by helping navigate the many issues( example tradesmen/ conveyances etc ). He is very generous with his time and always make himself available at short notice. I would have no problem to recommend him to anyone wishing to employ his services. Alain
Alain ChanVery genuine honest clear communicative friendly agent well studied and with a lot of knowledge of the area. I will certainly be recommending him to others
Roger Gledhill (Buyer)Wes is very professional and has a broad knowledge of the property market.He is a pleasure to deal with. Highly recommended.
Bruno ZangariFrom the first inspection of the property through all the negotiations and settlement we were so impressed with Wes. Not only impressed with his knowledge of the area and the property itself but his sincerity and genuine warmth. Relocating a young family is a huge step in life so we are so grateful that Wes was the Real Estate Agent selling the property. Wes was prompt with responding to any queries, went out of his way to make the process convenient and pain free for us. His professionalism, expertise in all things Geelong and Surf Coast and, in general, his war...
Linda Jeske and George Brown (Buyer)It gives us great pleasure to pass on our gratitude for the amazing stress free, friendly and prosperous journey you successfully achieved in selling our residence. As newcomers to Geelong, you were highly recommended to us and after a few meetings showed us qualities we were hoping for such as honesty, friendliness, knowledge of the home, surrounding estates and a plan to work to. From all this we were impressed by the preparation of your knowledge based on actual facts from all aspects about our house, advising and guidance to finishing touches in presenting our hom...
Christine & Leo TancrediWes’s building and development was all I needed to convince me he knew what he was doing. He believed in what he could achieve and had the figures and support evidence to justify it. He sold it to me so well it made me think we shouldn't be selling! As a result and because of Wes, we now have an additional '$500,000 TAX FREE' that we wouldn't have if I'd gone with the other agents that appraised the property. The lowest appraisal I received was $1 million dollars and the highest appraisal was $1.1 million. Wes however believed he could achieve between $1.6 - $1.7 ...
