21 Albyn Rd, Sunnybank - Jill and Nick

We could not have asked for a better agent than Owen Chen. When we decided to sell our home of 33 years, in Sunnybank, we invited several local agents to explain to us how they would go about selling the house. Owen's presentation was by far the best and he convinced us that he was the right person for the job. He had a clear strategy and timetable for selling the house and a warm and engaging personality. He enthused us in a way that no other agent had been able to do and we felt not only that he would be able to do that for potential buyers but that there would be a successful outcome for us. We were right. Owen has worked tirelessly for us and kept us well informed throughout. We have had complete confidence in him and felt that he has had our best interests in mind throughout. He listens and engages with us and with potential buyers. He is always available if we have a question or concern. His negotiation skills towards the end of the process were nothing short of masterful and he achieved a price for us that was well above our expectations. We are thrilled at the outcome and feel very

fortunate to have had Owen as our agent. We would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone considering selling in the Sunnybank area.

6 Dema st sunnybank - CarlWe mentioned to you when we first met that your reputation had proceeded you and that you had been referred by friends and others who had been in the real estate industry. And then, your professionalism, knowledge, work ethic, presentation and committment far exceeded our expectation. At the first meeting you presented the marketing plan and strategy, provided a comprehensive report on the local area, discussed pricing options for selling eg, sale or auction, and explained realistic and emotional demand. You suggested we go to auction and set out a plan for the next four weeks. Your regular updates and detailed information during the four weeks were excellent. Everything went to plan and the auction was a great success. We have already commended you to a number of our friends and will continue to do so in the future. Thankyou for your excellent professionalism, attentiveness, and a job very well done.

40 lampson st sunnybank - GrahamMy brother and I are executors of my late aunt’s estate in Sunnybank. From a recommendation from a mutual friend, we approached you and other agents in the Sunnybank area to get proposals to sell two properties in the Sunnybank area. Your initial response to us was quite favourable and on that basis we decided to go forward with you with the sale of one property initially. We were very impressed with your

energy and client service (in keeping me informed of interest on that property) and the sale price that resulted exceeded our expectations. In particular, we were very impressed with your efforts on the day of the auction. Based on that result we placed our second property with you for sale. Again we ended up with a very good result. I would be more than happy to recommend you to anyone who wants an agent that produces a very good financial outcome.. The fact that you also are energetic, courteous and most importantly, very professional was just the icing on the cake.

44 dema st sunnybank - PatriciaI spoke with a number of real estate agents in Sunnybank before choosing Owen Chen to sell my property. His presentation at our first meeting was by far the best; he listened to me, addressed my concerns, presented a clear strategy and timetable and provided detailed information about the marketing process. Owen kept me regularly informed throughout the four weeks to auction and was always available to answer my questions quickly and efficiently. He won my complete confidence and at all times I felt that he had my best interests at heart. Owen’s professionalism, work ethic and commitment and industry knowledge are outstanding and I unreservedly recommend him to anyone considering selling their property in the Sunnybank area.

29 MARELDA ST, SUNNYBANK 4109 - Bev Clydesdale and Ray Rogers, sellers in SunnybankOn a recommendation from a friend who sold his home with Owen as

an agent, we approached Owen to market and sell our deceased aunt’s property in Sunnybank. He produced a proposal and an outline of the strategy to maximise the potential sale price; we elected to go to auction, with the associated costs and marketing plan clearly outlined. We are happy to say Owen had an excellent knowledge of the market, and he and his team actively introduced the property to potential clients and regularly updated us on any feedback obtained. At no time did he put forward a price to us, suggesting we allow the auction process to take place. He and his assistants conducted inspections and open home inspections in a totally professional manner, introducing the property to a considerable number of potential buyers. On auction day we were pleased to see a large number of attendees and several registered bidders. The auctioneer, Paul Moore, was very informative and worked hard with the bidders to achieve a good outcome for us. We were extremely happy with the result, from the first meeting to settlement, and would have no hesitation in recommending Owen’s services to potential clients.

140 young st sunnybank - Marlene Goodfellow, Robyn Losinski, and Colleen KingWe have thanked Owen in person, but wanted to put in writing how grateful we are that he was our choice of agent for the sale our family home. Fifty years is a long time to spend in one home and one neighbourhood, and we needed someone who had the sensitivity to understand the implications of this sale for our family. Owen worked hard for three years, introducing himself to our family and keeping us up-to-date on the market in the area. He was not invasive but available; we appreciate that. He was the first person we called when the time to sell came. We interviewed other agents; Owen, however, spent two hours answering questions and explaining the best option of sale. He didn't push, he didn't badger; he listened. We felt we were his only

client from the beginning. He sensed the emotion of my elderly mother as she faced the sale, and he responded with understanding and compassion. He sold our house, secured a price we were very happy with, and he did it with honesty, sincerity, integrity, and loyalty to our needs. For all this we thank Owen and we would have absolutely no hesitation in speaking to anyone who is considering selling their property under his guidance. We wish Owen and his family all the very best. He deserves to be well rewarded for his professionalism in his field of expertise.

8 Norinda st Sunnybank - Keith & Gail HockingWe recently sold our house in Sunnybank and had the pleasure of using Owen Chen of as our sales agent. Throughout the entire experience we were most impressed with Owen's professional, honest and attentive services. He provided Gail and I with peace of mind during a time which can be quite stressful and was consistently available to answer all our concerns. We would happily recommend Owen's services to any prospective property buyer or seller.

11 samara st sunnybank - Sandra and Keith UhlmannFollowing three traumatic months of disappointment after disappointment with other agents trying to sell our home, Owen Chen achieved for us something we thought was becoming impossible. Owen sold our house in three weeks, prior to the auction and most importantly for the price we wanted. We were greatly impressed by Owen’s tireless efforts and his ability to keep us informed at all times as to the progress he was making. He explained his sales process and certainly “walked the walk”. Owen was extremely professional in every way and we were very excited with the outcome. A job “well done." We

would thoroughly recommend Owen to any other vendors wishing to sell their property.

36 Maywood calamvale - CandiceWe first knew Owen was in an Auction where we were quite impressed by the way he dealt with people. That was the reason we engaged him in our own sale afterwards. During the process, Owen has shown his professionalism and dedication. He is responsive and always tries to resolve issues when they arise from time to time. We are very pleased on the services provided by Owen and surely will recommend him to anyone that I know of.

38 altandi st sunnybank - Amelia and Mark BeaumontAfter previously trying to sell my elderly mother-in-law’s property without much success, my husband and I called Owen to assist us. Owen was honest, friendly, professional and very knowledgeable of the current market in our location, and his demonstrated experience with the sales process gave us much confidence that he was the right man for the job! Owen made himself available to us during every step of the sale, and we enjoyed the weekly catch ups and personalised weekly market reports for the property so that we could see exactly what was going on. At the end of the day Owen was able to achieve what other agents could not and facilitated a hassle-free sale of the property, including a very pleasing final price. We’d definitely recommend Owen to other potential property sellers and buyers, and we look forward to another opportunity to work with Owen in the future. Thanks again Owen!

49 Devenish st sunnybank - James Brentford Gomm & Maxine Collins-GomBrent and I give to you a big thank you for all your help in selling our house at 49 Devenish Street Sunnybank. To achieve that amazing result shows that you are the ultimate professional, who is hard working and always keeps the interests of the vendor in mind. You are a likable professional with pride in your knowledge of the local area. Your sales philosophy is based on product knowledge accessibility credibility and integrity. Your advice to us that good presentation is important meant we were well prepared for every inspection and open house. Our regular meetings with you with your updates were informative and appreciated. You are a determined and dedicated real estate agent. When we first met, you outlined a marketing plan and how you would proceed with the sale and an indication of price expectation. We are pleased we took your advice to go to auction. Auction day was a day filled with nerves and excitement. You and your team put us at ease just watching you go about your work in such a professional manner. The auctioneer Paul was fantastic keeping the huge crowd interested and bidding, which led to the auction result exceeding our expectations. Thank you for your work ethic and high quality customer service. We highly recommend you to anyone wishing to sell their home.

35 kimmax st sunnybank - Helga Maria & Max GrenkowitThank you again for a great job well done! Dealing with any trade or service in Australia based on our experience has often become

cumbersome, unwieldy and stressful. We had the opposite - a very good and positive experience with Owen Chen. Owen walked us through every step of the sales process, detailing the process, what to do and what to be mindful of. He was very attentive to any questions and queries we had. What was most impressive of all: we put the house on market effectively on a Thursday, and sold the property (scheduled for auction later on) on the following Monday! The sale price was above our expectation. All in all - a very good experience indeed.

Dr Tim White and Dr Fiona Yau

After our positive experience dealing with Owen Chen for the recent sale of our Sunnybank property we have no hesitation in recommending Owen as a top class real estate agent. From the start of the selling process Owen demonstrated his professionalism and dedication by sharing his extensive knowledge and time to explain how to achieve a successful sale. Owen always kept us informed of any requirements or developments in a timely fashion and was readily accessible for any questions we had. We were delighted to receive multiple offers on the first open house with the sale going through to completion smoothly. If you require a reliable, efficient, honest, respectful, and dedicated real estate agent, contact Owen Chen.

Deborah & Kent Wells

Owen is very dedicated and prides himself on his local knowledge. Before we signed up he gave us a comprehensive marketing strategy and was happy to adjust and modify this to accommodate our preferences. We think Owen really showed his strengths when it came to negotiating, we received an offer after the property had only been

on the market 2 weeks, which he managed to successfully negotiate to a very satisfactory outcome for all parties. Owen keep in frequent contact, updating us with feedback after inspections and was always very pleasant to deal with. Thank you.

Peter , Christine ,Wallace and Bobby MacindoeOwen Chen achieved a very successful outcome for us in the sale of our family home on August 24th. Right from our initial meeting Owen impressed us with his warmth ,his professionalism and his marketing advice and continued to impress us over the course of the sales campaign . We all loved his enthusiasm ,energy and hard work but most important for us was his honesty and integrity.We'd be delighted to recommend this intelligent young man to anybody contemplating selling their property . Owen gives Real Estate Agents a really great name !

Anne BiggsMy sincere thanks to you for bringing the outcome of the sale of my property, in only a few days, to such an excellent result. At our first meeting I had full confidence in your presentation, as your professionalism, work ethic, and commitment to my needs were obvious. I was not let down. I would not hesitate to recommend your excellent attention to anyone in need of real estate business.

Seller in SunnybankOwen Chen is a likable, professional and hard working agent who always keeps the interests of the seller in mind. His method and ability to develop a climate of perceived high value in the sale being offered is excellent. He is by far the best agent I have dealt with over the years and I would highly recommend him to others.

Seller of 67 Agnes St, SunnybankI wish to write to you regarding Owen and the way he conducted the sale of the property at 67 Agnes Street, Sunnybank. The final outcome was exactly as Owen had originally predicted and he conducted every aspect in a very professional manner. He was contacted because he left a sales card in the letterbox, as were two other local agents. He was selected to be the agent solely because of Owen’s thorough presentation. Subsequently much work was put into advertising and arranging inspections on the property which then resulted in contract. Unfortunately this sale did not complete due to lack of Finance, probably because the property is very old. Undeterred, Owen worked all weekend and produced another contract, this time not subject to finance or building inspection. With some encouragement from Owen along the way, this sale settled last week. This sale happened purely because of Owen’s hard work and professional ways.

Victoria Shead, seller in Sunnybank Hills

Owen, thank you for the fantastic result you achieved for me, in the recent sale of my property in Sunnybank Hills. Your professionalism and knowledge of the local area was great and I valued the discussions we had both before and during the sale process. The different advertising methods were excellent and provided very good 'value for money.' You and your team met and exceeded my expectations and I am very happy with the outcome achieved. I would happily recommend you to anyone wishing to discuss local real estate and the sale of their property.

Drago & Ankica, sellers of 11 Millbong St, Sunnybank

If you remember, at the start of the marketing campaign, Ankica and I said that we would provide the finest possible presentation of our

home and if you gave us your best possible service, together we would achieve a positive outcome. Congratulations, you did it within 2 weeks! We cannot thank you and your team enough for the professional, meticulous and thorough management of our marketing campaign which led to a successful sale of our house. The attention to every detail, follow ups and the way you constantly kept us informed during the whole process was exceptional. Your diligent and persistent effort to provide us with the best possible outcome was relentless and indeed very impressive.

Adam, seller of 18 Station Rd , Sunnybank We would sincerely like to thank you and the team for what was a very professional display on how to sell property. From our initial meeting when you clearly and thoroughly outlined how you would proceed, put us totally at ease and we knew we had found the right agency. The photography and marketing was first class, this along with your attention to detail and professional manner went a long way in what was an incredible result, an offer on our first open house which subsequently led to a contract, SOLD on the first day, unbelievable! Again we would like to thank you and the team, we know who we’ll be calling when we’re ready to purchase our next property.

Seller of 13 Manzill St, Sunnybank HillsOwen’s extensive marketing strategy and world class negotiation skills brought us 3 offers within the first week, which gave us a very strong position to maximize the end result. Owen managed to get all 3 offers increased dramatically by creating a competitive buying environment, therefore, we sold our property within the 1st week of being on the market and the sold price was $26,000 more than our expectations. I would like to take the opportunity to thank Owen again for providing

such professional service and creating such a good sold price in a buyer’s market, and I am sure I will use his services again in the future.

Paul Nathan, seller in SunnybankOwen Chen is a determined and dedicated Real Estate Agent. He displayed true grit, through his persistence in getting me to put my house up for sale when I was not inclined to do so at that time. I was impressed with this British Bull Dog quality - ‘sink your teeth in and not let go!’ This dogged characteristic was prevalent throughout his dealing with me while attempting to sell my property, which he did, with the most satisfying result. Owen is a positive thinker. This, I believe, is the real motivating factor behind his successful sales outcomes. A complementing placid temperament, has in no small measure contributed immensely, to his prowess as a successful Agent. Owen is also a forthright and upright person. He does not mince his words. He lives up to the promises he makes. In short, he is a trustworthy and reliable person. I have no doubt that he will achieve greatness. I would like therefore, to take this opportunity to wish him continued success in his chosen profession as a Real Estate Agent.

Lynette Moxham

Hello Owen, Thank you so much for selling my rental property recently. As a seller, I found your knowledge and dedication to your profession highly commendable and should I have the opportunity to recommend you (to a buyer or seller) I will certainly do so. I appreciated your communication throughout the process, keeping me informed of activity and feedback. I was surprised at the relatively quick sale, I know it is said to be a buyer's market at the moment but you realised that I was a committed seller and you achieved a respectable sale price that I could accept. All round it was a pleasure to meet you and I wish you every success in the future.

Buyer of 3 Boronia St , Calamvale I have recently purchased a property in Calamvale from Owen Chen. He made the entire process work easily and smoothly for me and my family. As first home buyers, he was extremely helpful in providing us with practical advice and assistance – he is a well versed encyclopaedia! Our past experience has been fairly traumatising and we are relieved to have found someone like Owen to guide us and make the purchase of our first home such an enjoyable event. There is no doubt that we will be recommending him to anyone looking to sell, buy or rent and will most definitely go back to him in future.

Tim Murphy, seller of 4/76 Symons Rd, Sunnybank HillsTo whom it may concern, I would like to express my thanks to Owen for the work that he did in the recent sale of my property, Unit 4, 76 Symons Rd, Sunnybank Hills. I found him very professional, respectful and confident in his role and achieved our expected sales price in a struggling market, which made the sale of the property less dramatic than I thought it would be. I would have no hesitation in recommending Owen to market and sell any future properties that I am involved with.

Tony, seller of 31 Pinecone Street, SunnybankOwen Chen has clearly shown his commitment and dedication to assisting the people of Sunnybank in selling their property by personally door knocking the area and explaining his approach to sales and

marketing. His visit coincided with our decision to place our five-bedroom home of 35 years on the market and down-size as our children had left home. 2012 was a very challenging time in the residential real estate market in Brisbane, yet Owen succeeded in getting a reasonable price for our property due to his hard work in following up house inspections and other leads through the Internet, the data base etc. I wish Owen and his future sellers well in the coming years.

Owen you are dedicated and work extremely hard to achieve your goals. Terry and I wish you all the best in gaining number one poistion within your team.

Ana and Nik When deciding to sell our house, we decided to contact Owen because

we had seen his name on many 'SOLD' signs around the neighbourhood. He came well prepared on a Saturday afternoon and never rushed, taking us through intricacies of the sales process, showing sales statistics and his methodology for a successful sale. When asked to give us some references to contact, he did not hesitate, even though we chose them, from a long list. From this point on Owen worked with is in close collaboration to make the sale happen. He kept in contact with us and gave frequent updates. His commitment to us and our mutual objective, tenacity and tireless search for potential buyers never ceased to impress us. He is quite professional. Owen came through and the house was sold on auction day. We cannot recommend Owen enough. He made selling our house an exciting and comfortable process. He'll be selling our next house.

Elaine McMahonI would like to sincerley thank Owen for his excellent marketing skills and photography work used in the sale of my house. At our intial meeting he clearly outlined how he would proceed and I felt he was the right man for the job. His professional manner of negotiation produced three offers in three days which resulted in the sale of the property before the first open home. This resulted in the sale price being $4000 above my expectation. I would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone selling their property due to his attention to detail and professional management and marketing of same.

Jim Swan - 56 Odin Street, SunnybankI would like to take this opportunity to thank you for your endeavours in achieving the sale of my property. Your appointment commenced on May 28 2013 and to my delight you presented a contract to me today which I accepted. Our discussions prior to your appointment to sell this property were extremely thorough and your approach extremely

professional. You were obviously very well prepared and have very thorough knowledge of the market in which you operate. The information you provided was instrumental in establishing a price that the property should achieve. You also set out a comprehensive marketing plan designed to achieve that price. In the end and within a very short period of time you exceeded the agreed price and my expectations. I would have no hesitation in recommending you to any prospective seller. My thanks again to you and your team for achieving this sale on my behalf.

Ron RolfeI have been a commercial Real Estate Agent for over 30 years so I know how important it is to choose the right agent when selling your home. With the due diligence I carried out I found Owen, backed by the team, to be very active and professional so I was not surprised when my home sold within the first week and for a better price than I was expecting.
