About Lockhearts.
Real Estate. Reimagined.
We exist to make your real estate experience legitimately enjoyable - and it really can be. Over our 45 years in this industry, we have learned that empowered and knowledgeable clients have a far better experience than those who aren’t. No more feelings of dread or being in the dark. Work with us and we’ll equip you with industry-leading knowledge while supporting every want, need, and wish.
What we do.
We help execute your dream lifestyle and achieve your financial goals. Sometimes that means a friendly touchpoint or an assessment of where you are and where you want to be. Through these assessments, we’ll determine whether you’re ready to buy the home of your dreams, generate additional revenue through property investments, or sell your prized asset for more money than you could have imagined.
Our promise to you.
We want to make you a promise - luckily, this isn't our first rodeo. We ask that you sign a contract with us stipulating that we do not collect our service fee unless you have approved each item of service was delivered - to your satisfaction. This way you’ll know we’re keeping your best interests at heart.
What you need to do.
As much or as little as you'd like! We're here to be your trusted ally, guide, and partner through the good times and the bad. We can take everything on and arrange the fiddly bits, we also know all the best people for financing, insurance, inspections, even landscaping!
Our Services.
Buying a home.
-
A lot of preparation goes into the home search. We’ll break down the things that matter - your lifestyle needs, financial goals, and ideal living situation.
Once we’ve done this, you’ll be best placed to start your search.
-
It is highly likely we will already know of a home that hasn’t hit the market that will be perfect for you.
If not - we have the latest and greatest real estate search tools at our disposal, so you’ll never miss a beat in this busy market.
-
You won’t be on your own when viewing properties, don’t worry! We know all the best questions to ask, the cupboards to look in, and the people to help assess whether this property is a good fit for you.
-
Handling the legal bits and the conditions for winning offers is what we do best. It’s how we’ve helped so many clients secure their dream homes!
We’ll handle all the paperwork from end to end, so all you need to do is call the moving truck.
Selling your home.
-
Preparing to sell starts with your lifestyle and financial goals. Many people let the market dictate their thinking - we think you should only ever sell when it is right for you.
We’ll help you understand where you are long before the time comes for needing to do it.
-
The second important area to think about in any home sale is how market-ready it is. Our consultation will give you an idea of how to maximise it’s sale price over a short, medium, or long timeframe.
If there are structural or cosmetic things to do we’ll identify them. We’ll even help you mow the lawn!
-
Each home has a story and deserves to be told to as many buyers as possible. We will do such that and target the right buyer for your home.
With a lengthy history in marketing, branding, audience generation, and sales success, we have the tools in our locker to succeed quickly.
-
Closing, negotiations, lawyers. Yawn.
We’ll handle all of that. All you need to do is tell us how much money you’d like to make and where you’d like it deposited. Easy, eh?
Here’s what our clients say about us.
We helped Sally and Steve with a lightning-fast sell-to-purchase transaction. In a busy multiple offer scenario, our expertise shone through. We hope you enjoy your new home, guys!
