The Belle Property experience.
Read what our customers have to say about working with us in the testimonials below. Just as we did for these vendors, buyers, investors, and renters, we can help you achieve your property goals too.
We were very happy with Nicole as our agent. From the beginning, Nicole's approach inspired confidence, as she explained the Belle process and advised on the presentation of our home. The concierge service provided by Belle assisted us with getting our home into the best condition possible for sale. Once the house was listed, Nicole found the right buyer very quickly, ensuring a seamless and stressful process for us as the vendors.

From our very first meeting, Darren presented the total selling processes and all aspects of our sale. Our Marketing process and shoot was excellent and the outcome and delivery was excellent. We were given an Open Home schedule that was delivered as discussed and gave prospective buyers a great opportunity to view our home. Communications on every level within Belle has been of a very high standard. Our outcome is a sale that allows us to move forward with our desired plans. Thank you again Darren to you and your professional team for a successful sale. Rob and Kerri.

I recently had the pleasure of working with Darren Kay, Principal Agent of Belle Property Illawarra, for the sale of my apartment, and I couldn't be happier with the experience. From start to finish, Darren's professionalism, expertise, and dedication were evident, making the entire process seamless. Darren's team, including Jake Byrnes, Sales Associate, and Susie Bampton, Real Estate Agent, provided invaluable support throughout. Jake was always readily available, ensuring that every detail was attended to promptly, while Susie's knowledge and experience added an extra layer of assurance to the process. Choosing Darren was an easy decision for me, as his outstanding track record and high recommendations from the Illawarra community spoke volumes about his capabilities. From our initial consultation to the final sale, Darren's communication was impeccable, keeping me informed every step of the way and offering sound advice based on his extensive experience in the industry. One of Darren's greatest strengths is his accessibility. Whenever I had questions, he was just a phone call away, ready to provide guidance and advice. His willingness to listen and discuss various aspects of the sale made me feel truly supported throughout the entire journey. Darren's expertise shone through during the sales process, as he provided valuable insights and strategic advice that ultimately led to an exceptional outcome for both myself and the buyer. His attention to detail, negotiation skills, and commitment to achieving the best possible result were evident in every aspect of the transaction. Overall, working with Darren Kay and his team at Belle Property Illawarra was a fantastic experience. I can't thank them enough for their professionalism, dedication, and outstanding service. If you're looking for a real estate agent who truly cares about their clients and delivers exceptional results, I highly recommend Darren Kay.

We had the pleasure of working with a phenomenal real estate agent, Darren Kay, and his Team, who recently sold our property in Wollongong. From start to finish Darren demonstrated a level of professionalism efficiency and dedication that truly set him apart. Darren was exceptional at matching our needs with the sale of our property. He took the time to listen attentively to our requirements and made it clear that our satisfaction was his top priority. Darren's hardworking and diligent approach was evident in every step of the process. One of Darren's standout qualities is his profound understanding of the Wollongong real estate market. His insights and knowledge were invaluable in helping us make informed decisions throughout the sale. However, where Darren truly shines is during negotiations. He skills in this aspect are exceptional, making him the standout among other real estate agents in Wollongong. He went beyond to ensure that we receive the best possible outcome. Darren and his team’s commitment to his clients combined with their expertise, is a winning combination that sets him apart in the industry. Thank you, Darren, for your outstanding service.

Darren is very professional and has a great sales record. He advised and guided me through the entire process with patience and answered all my questions. He emailed detailed reports of who visited the open house. He then followed up the visitors with phone calls. He then personally called me to discuss his thoughts or any advice on changes needed. We sold quickly and most importantly at a good price. The entire team also held this same profession standard.

A very positive experience. Nicole conducted the negotiations with prospective buyers in a manner that lead to a great outcome.

Alice H

We have nothing but praise for Nicole and the team at Belle Property Illawarra. They are very professional, capable, courteous, helpful, communicative and in particular, very effective in the marketing process. Nicole has sold two properties on our behalf, and each time she has produced a result beyond our expectations. The service they give is not commensurate with the commission they expect to receive on the sale of the property. The same high degree of time and effort is directed towards achieving the best possible outcome for their client, regardless of the return to them. This shows us that Nicole is a person of high integrity, a person who can be trusted.
