Candice Blair has been a superb agent! She is friendly, communicative, understanding, and very competent. I always had any issues sorted out in an effective and timely manner. I wish all agents were of a similar ilk !
Hi Debbie, I just wanted to thank you for all your hard work particularly over the last year. It has been a difficult time for me with the maintenance on 612 and 614 Spencer st and the extensive works on 618 Spencer st. Your contribution during this period has been phenomenal. You have kept me completely informed with every aspect of the works, always promptly answering queries/emails, advising wisely regarding what needs to be done and options available and following up with tradespeople. You have been extremely accommodating with inspections, always making yourself available for my convenience. Your work ethic/professionalism is much appreciated.
Outstandingly Good in Every Way You don’t sell a property everyday so you rely heavily on the advice and guidance of the agent you are working with. In my case this entire process was exceptionally well handled and ended up having a result that exceeded my expectations. It was certainly a combination of the marketing and communications approach and the way the property was presented that worked perfectly. Getting the right agent who does not treat you as just another client is so important and in this case working with Richard and his team was the right decision.
Experience, integrity, a cut above This was my second property dealing with Richard. He successfully sold a North Melbourne flat for me around 9 years ago for what could only be described as a gob-smacking price. This time, working closely with him, I saw in addition to his vast market knowledge and skill as an auctioneer, a reliability, sincerity and decency which in my experience, is rare. Selling at auction during a market slump, and being the sole vendor was nerve-racking, but I trusted Richard's experience and advice 100% and was rewarded by a result far exceeding my expectations.
Richard, and his colleague, ran a hugely successful auction campaign in a tough market. Richard, particularly, is to be commended for his extensive knowledge of the market, his understanding of the very fluid market dynamics, and his superb performance in front of the five very active bidders on the day. We were very happy with the price and his briefing to us on the whole auction process helped reduce our anxiety. He was a pleasure with which to work.
I’ve had such a great experience with this real estate agent. For the first time I had the feeling the agent was there for me as a renter, and not just for the landlord. Sally is a great listener, has excellent communication skills, is fair and she is also just a lovely human being :) Highly recommend and hope to be back renting from W. B. Simpson in the future.
He has an extensive market knowledge & experience that guided us & always with honesty & care! Richard is someone you want on your team when you embark on one of the biggest & at times stressful journeys of your life. This is our 3rd time working with Richard & the team at W. B Simpson & Son.

Right from the start Richard was very professional and had a very good understanding of the market. He took us through the plans and kept us well informed during the process. his effort on auction day was outstanding and we would recommend his agency to anyone considering which agency to use. - Michael Craig. 19 Ireland Street, West Melbourne
