Testimonials

Great agent! Moving to a new destination can often be very daunting but with the assistance from Ben and his team at Ben Bate Real Estate our transition was smooth. Ben kept us well informed every step of the way and was always there for us. We would highly recommend this real estate agency.

- Cheryl & Geoff

My parents initially bought their property through Ben over 10 years ago, so it was an easy decision for us to go back when it was time to sell.
The communication, care and consideration for our personal situation has been incredible and we could not have asked for a better experience.

Great experience for first home buyers. Ben was so great to deal with right from the get-go. His professionalism and easy going nature made us feel comfortable and confident throughout the entire process. Being a first home buyer it’s was overwhelming at times but Ben as well as the office staff were so lovely the entire time.
