"When I first met Gary I was impressed with his comprehensive knowledge of real estate, and extensive experience. As we discussed selling real estate, I was also impressed with his approach, which was anything but run-of-the-mill. We felt very comfortable in deciding to enlist Gary's assistance to sell our home. We found him to be up-front and truthful. He was always supportive and made many helpful suggestions, not only about presentation, but also with other types of services that would make it easier to move after living in our home for over 20 years. Very important to us was his flexibility in meeting his clients' needs. This was very evident as he was able to work with us, within the parameters we had for the sale of our home. We also appreciated that he kept us up-to-date with prospective buyers' reactions, and the progress of our sale. Overall, we appreciated his sincerity, consistent helpfulness and astute professionalism in assisting us achieve the successful sale of our property. We've no hesitation in recommending him to others who wish to sell their properties."

"Dear Gary, I have not really thanked you for all have done to help me with the sale of my home. You were professional and understanding during this time as it was difficult for me to sell a house which I had loved for 35 years and had made a family home for myself and my 3 sons. You advise and guidance was ‘spot on’. At every open house and interaction with potential buyers it was clear you acted in my best interest as my agent. You took an effort to know my home and I was very aware you spent valuable time with each interested party to give a full appreciation of what my home offered. I was lucky to have you as my agent. Your efforts resulted in a final outcome higher than expected in a down turn market."

"If you are looking for an agent that is decisive and knowledgeable then Gary Ward is your agent. His knowledge of the area, coupled with his determined approach and honesty, will guide you through the sale of your most important asset.

We used Gary to successfully sell our house. He was always well prepared, during the opens and direct in our communication with him. His contact list quickly brought the right buyer to us and resulted in a great sale price.

We would recommend him to anyone who wanted a professional and personable service."

"I can highly recommend Gary Ward as an agent who has the best interests of his clients uppermost in mind and heart. His persona made it easy for me to speak plainly about my ignorance of the market and its fast-changing house prices. His knowledge and experience guided me to list a sale price that exceeded my low evaluation but which he knew was achievable in the market of the day. Because he keeps his personal vendor list to two or three clients, he can better serve each client to procure the truly best sale price. His work achieved for me an extra $500,000 more than my guesstimate. I recommend that you consult with him, as he will work for you as vendor wholly and never for the purchaser."

Ian Bevins

"Gary Ward - A special real estate representative. If we could summarise Gary this way: Gary is open, conscientious, professional and prepared to go the distance to help vendors. Gary is more than that. He is relaxed, speaks well but also listens well, works hard, believes in results as well as in relationships, before and after sales. Quite a special agent. Thus we’d like to say, thank you very much Gary. We were very happy with his work and unhesitatingly recommend him to any vendor."

"We met Gary Ward as a matter of happenstance. He had recently sold a neighbouring property and had a number of disappointed potential buyers. However our property was near to hand and offered all the same amenities. Gary approached us with the offer to sell our property and we initially were very reluctant, mostly because we had not done any of the renovations that would be required and it was a few years ahead of our projected timeline. Nevertheless he persisted and suggested we take the property off market and see what interest we had from the disappointed buyers of our neighbour. We set a price and let Gary do his thing. Not all that optimistic but he came through, satisfying our needs and exciting the new prospective owner. A mutually satisfactory deal. Gary is an innovative estate agent and works hard for his client I commend him highly and would endorse him as an agent at all times."

"Mr Gary Ward recently negotiated the sale of my home of nearly 50 years. The sale was conducted in a discreet, professional manner which was very much to my liking.

Based on my experience, I would not hesitate to recommend Gary to any intending property vendor."

"Gary has just sold our family home that we have lived in for the last 54 years since we built it in 1965. We have so many wonderful memories in this home and it has been hard for us to sell and move on.We put a lot of thought into which agency to choose that would personally represent us in the selling process. My wife recently had a stroke and we have chosen to move into a retirement community. We did not want or need a lot of stress in the selling process. Gary is the husband of our local chemist and lives locally, so I thought it would be worth asking him to come and give a presentation. We had made contact with two other local Real Estate Agencies but we were so impressed with Gary straight away that we chose him to sell off the family home. We are so grateful that we did. A recent sale in our area was poorly managed and brought much less than was expected. Gary advised and proposed the way forward and brought in Claire from their office who provided complimentary design and styling suggestions for our home. Gary offered us price guides, marketing and promotional proposals and strategies. We prepared our home for sale before going away for a two week holiday. While we were away Gary organised a “pre full campaign” opening which proved to be only one required to obtain a sale. This saved us from the stress of preparing our home for openings over many weeks. Gary provided advice, feedback, and a strategy from his 30 years in corporate business. This made the whole process very comfortable for us. We really appreciated his ongoing communication throughout the whole selling process. Engaging Gary and his team at Century 21 was a decision that we are so happy with. We have no hesitation in recommending Gary Ward and Century 21 to any potential sellers who are looking for a professional quality Real Estate Agent."

Ray and Frances Kench

"I chose Gary on recommendation from my neighbours who had recently sold through him. Upon meeting Gary, I found him to be a breath of fresh air. His understanding of the market place and my needs were exceptional and he was able to lead me through the whole process in a confident and enthusiastic way. My home was sold in the first weekend on the market and Gary achieved the sale price that I had hoped for. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Gary to anyone considering selling their property."

"You will not be disappointed if you give Gary your real estate listing. Our house at Warrawee was his first sale and we gave it to him to sell at first on a three-month trial basis due to his inexperience. We were not disappointed. He was honest, very professional and enthusiastic and got us a very good result, significantly above reserve price. This was despite the fact we missed the market peak and annoyingly the inaccurate “buyer ready search engines” put out by the banks valued it significantly lower than we wanted and eventually got. I was annoyed and personally spoke to one of the managers at “Core Logic” and argued their algorithm did not allow for the fact we had a tennis court. He agreed that whilst it was exceptionally accurate on most properties it did not always value premium or unusual properties as accurately. Gary had to work very hard to raise buyer expectations. Not easy but he did it!! We have no hesitation in recommending him."
