What people say about us
A smooth, professional and caring experience
A smooth, professional and caring experience selling my home through Burchell Higgins who provided an excellent service from start to finish. Peta communicated with me well and kept me informed every step of the way. Marketing was accurate and highly visible which resulted in many serious buyers being shown through the property. The final price was well negotiated and fell within their initial predicted range despite the market dropping in the meantime. All the way through, Peta responded promptly to my questions and suggestions and I was super happy with the who...
My experience of Burchell and Higgins: genuine, reliable, available, creative, and certainly personable with warmth and humour.
At 78, the decision to downsize from acreage on a coastal property after 30 odd years was a sensible one, but the prospect was daunting. Choosing Burchell Higgins Property Sales to guide me through the process proved to be a wise decision. From 'get go' Peta and Guy allayed my anxiety. Over a cuppa at the kitchen table Peta outlined the steps and procedures, costs, evaluations, and our respective responsibilities. Peta answered my questions and assured me that they would be with me on this journey. Following the initial preparations and announc...
We couldn't be more impressed with their outstanding service
We had the pleasure of working with Peta and Guy from Burchell Higgins Property Sales to sell our dad's property, and we couldn't be more impressed with their outstanding service. Unlike other agents who viewed the property negatively and seemed unwilling to put in the effort, Peta and Guy saw the beauty and uniqueness of the place. They approached the task with genuine enthusiasm and valued the property for its individuality. Peta and Guy's dedication to advertising and selling the property was exemplary. They recognised the unique features of our house and propert...
Sound advice, honesty and integrity
Dear Peta and Guy Thank you for your support and discretion throughout the sale of our house. Your sound advice, honesty and integrity was of great value, especially having never sold a house before. I have no hesitation in recommending your service to anyone needing wise guidance through this emotional and challenging process. Once again thank you. Regards Suzanne
We would rate Peta as the best and friendliest agent we have encountered
We have bought and sold property a number of times over the years and, without question, we would rate Peta as the best and friendliest agent we have encountered. As buyers based in Sydney we needed somebody in our corner. And I’m happy to report, at every step of the process, Peta went the extra distance, keeping an eye out for us during our property search, clearly explaining procedures when we found the perfect place, always responding in a timely fashion, and accommodating our long-distance requirements along the way. I cannot recommend Peta and Burchell Higgins hi...
Able to negotiate a price that was more than we anticipated!
As real estate agents, Peta and Guy demonstrated a good set of professional skills while selling our property. They were personable, reliable, extremely well focused on the sale of our house and with minimal effort from us, sold the property in a short time period. They were able to negotiate a price that was more than we anticipated. We would have no hesitation in recommending them as an agent for selling your property. Ned & Amanda
We will always be grateful to Peta and Guy.
When we decided it was time to move, Burchell Higgins was one of the agencies we approached. They responded quickly and at our first meeting we were impressed by their enthusiasm and their wealth of practical advice on the marketing process. We faced several problems during that process but Peta, our main contact, always remained upbeat and made positive suggestions for the way ahead. We realised we were facing a slowing market and accepted Peta’s advice on fine tuning our pricing. The result was a satisfactory outcome for us and also for the buyers – a testament to ...
Professional, warm and dedicated support
Selling my family home was difficult both emotionally and physically but made incredibly easier by the professional, warm and dedicated support of Peta during the whole process. No question, or concern was too small, and she spent the time to explain the process and guided me the whole way to present my home in its best light. Outstanding service and couldn't recommend her or Guy Higgins more highly. Lee, Wallagoot Feb 2023 (vendor)

Candelo, July 2023 We wanted to get in touch to thank you for your very helpful, friendly, and professional service when we bought our house in Candelo.

We doubt a more professional & personable real estate team could be found
Burchell Higgins Property Sales we’re our chosen agents when we decided to sell our home on 16ha near Bega. Peta responded promptly and arranged an initial visit. My partner & I were very impressed with the knowledge, recommendations & friendly service from both Guy & Pete.

An Open Day was arranged, & we received great feedback, which was positive & reassuring. Once a suitable offer was accepted, again we we’re supported in every step toward...
An outstanding example of a Real Estate Agent... the opposite to what most agents are like.
Peta from Burchell Higgins Property Sales is an outstanding example of a Real Estate Agent I would want to work with again and who I will recommend highly to everyone. She was so friendly, knowledgeable, and easy to work with from the first moment we spoke. She is the opposite to what most agents are like. She was so helpful with the sale and made the process effortless. I highly recommend Peta as someone you can rely in on the property market; she is lovely! Steven, Black Range
Could not recommend this team more highly!
Selling the family home of 30 years was a huge undertaking for me. Guy And Peta were a delight to work with, making the whole process run smoothly. The idea of an open house, which I was not too keen on at first, is brilliant. Knowing when people were coming to inspect on one specific day and time removed much of the stress. At all times, both Peta and Guy were open, available and generous with their time and information. Could not recommend this team more highly, a pleasure to deal with them. Leonie Hippisley - Vendor January 2023

Throughout the process, including while we were away overseas, Peta was unfailingly approachable, thoughtful and very responsive to any questions we had. We found Peta to be very honest and respectful and would like to thank her and Guy Higgins sincerely for being so wonderful to deal with and for selling our home quickly and professionally. Warmest regar...
And it all come true because of who Peta is as a professional and as a person
My experience with Peta from Burchell Higgins real estate must be told, because the effort that Peta went to for us is far beyond what is required for a real estate agent's role to find a client a home. I originally contacted Peta via email because she was the last agent to sell a property in the beautiful sort after area of Tanja. I'm so glad I did because I can say with confidence that we wouldn't have found the home of our dreams without her. For a year after I contacted her, Peta was our go to for anything real estate on the south coast. She would even give us her...

“When everything goes well in a sale, vendors are generally happy. It is when there are challenges that a company’s reputation can be amplified or otherwise.
