Testimonials

Organised, Professional Communicator
Catharina Hartzheim was a pleasure to deal with as I purchased a property. She was knowledgeable about the local market, and handled the negotiations with the vendors evenings and weekends, as needed. While an agent is paid by the vendor, I nonetheless felt that my interests as a buyer were also important to Catharina. She made an extra effort to ensure that I received the documents (such as owners' corporation minutes) that I wanted before the purchase became unconditional. She ensured that another agent in her office was available to help when Catharina herself took a brief holiday. Catharina Hartzheim impressed me as an organised, professional communicator (with a pleasant & friendly manner).

Catharina Hartzheim was by far the best out of several agents my wife and I interviewed. She came over as confident and competent, and appeared genuinely interested in our house. The property was sold within a week of coming on the market at a very fair price. I wish I had more properties to sell so that I could rehire Catharina.

Catharina and Rob were an amazing team with the sale of our property. They knew the market for our house and how to get the most out of a sale to get us the results we wanted. They answered our questions and both communicated clearly with us and at every step of the way without the overbearing ego that we've experienced with other agents. We can't recommend both Catharina and Rob highly enough.

From our first meeting with Catharina we both commented on what a good feeling we got from her.

We have no hesitation in recommending Catharina to others and in fact, it is our intention to list a property with her later this year. Her hard working but friendly attitude has turned us from purchasers to vendors.

Fabulous Service! Highly recommend Catharina.

Catharina is super bubbly, uses her initiative and doesn't wait for an opportunity to come to her, she is proactive in chasing clients and the best deal for you. She was always prompt with calls, updated me regularly and was very transparent with the whole sales process. I found she didn't sugarcoat figures, she was realistic about pricing whilst always being proactive in getting the best figure for me. I've dealt with a few agents and Catharina is by far the best I've come across in Ballarat, I would highly recommend her.

Vendor; 25 Willoby Dr, Alfredton, VIC, 3350
First class service and result
From the beginning, Catarina demonstrated her knowledge and guided me with expertise to make what can be an overwhelming process so simplistic. She was accurate with her price guide and recommendations for minor repairs and touch ups to present the property in the best possible way. Living in Melbourne, it was important to find an agent I could trust to look after the property in my absence, she went to the property early in the morning before the open home to turn on the ducted heating for our buyers and I was confident that when she left the house was locked up and safe. After a successful first home open, Catarina spent all day Monday following up all groups which resulted in multiple offers with the property selling the next day! She kept us very well informed each step of the way and made the whole process seamless. She dedicated 100% of herself throughout the process and I couldn’t be happier with the result and the speed at which the sale and settlement occurred - yet confident she achieved a great result. I highly recommend Catarina for anyone looking to sell.
Vendor; 803 Ripon St S, Redan, VIC, 3350
Our dealings with Catharina have been exceptional.
From our first meeting with Catharina it was obvious that her market knowledge was extensive and she imparted a sense of confidence in taking her options and advice on board. Her communication was excellent and it was obvious she had great rapport with us which would therefore extend to prospective buyers. She was very professional at all times with her organising open house days and advising on presentation and had great contacts on having the house ready for presentation. Her personal presentation is excellent. We had Catharina recommended to us and we have recommended her in return.
Vendor; 102 Norman Street, Ballarat North, VIC, 3350
New House Smythes Creek
Initially things were a bit pushy, but then I made my mind up that this was the house I wanted. Catherina was extremely professional and plenty of communication.

Overall top quality service. I can see why so many people are happy with Catherina and her service. Thanks again

Many thanks to Rob & Catharina and the PRD Team. They made buying our new home & auctioning our old house stress free. We always had great communication from them & Stephanie and were always kept in the loop on what was happening with both houses. Very professional from start to finish, we highly recommend PRD Ballarat.

We would like to commend Robert McClure for the professionalism in the sale of our home which was completed within our time frame and achieved an excellent results. The 'Open House' worked well and the follow up communication was always very prompt and informative. You were aggressive in your marketing on our behalf, wasted no time with the photography, advertising and bringing prospective buyers through the home on a regular basis and we felt your entire agency represented our house very well. We were happy with the valuation and the quick sale of the house due to Robert's good work. We give special thanks to Catharina Hartzheim for her time and effort throughout the whole sale process. We are happy to recommend Robert to anyone considering selling their home.
