Review Lawrence

Excellent communicator making a big process very seamless

We are so fortunate to have had Lawrence guide us through the whole process of selling our apartment. He was so patient with us and really took the time to answer any questions we had about the sale. Being our first sale, we were pretty nervous but Lawrence made the whole process very seamless and was always responsive and provided us timely updates. We would highly recommend Lawrence on the sale of your property. He was a very calming presence and had excellent knowledge about the market.

Outstanding care and professionalism

Lawrence provided outstanding service from our first meeting through to settlement. On first meeting, his market knowledge and calm, professional demeanor were a standout. He ably guided us through preparing the property for market (no small task after 45 years), introducing reliable trades, working to a clear schedule and providing clear communication throughout. I was grateful for the practical and respectful approach - and very happy with the way the property presented on listing. The sales campaign was clear, considered and we received timely updates throughout. During the sale period, a family member passed. I cannot speak highly enough of the way Lawrence managed this - empathy, warmth, flexibility and responsiveness - he always went the extra mile to help. We were delighted to receive a very acceptable pre auction offer, removing some stress for my elderly parents. Happy to recommended Lawrence as a very impressive agent.

Thank you Lawrence

We were very glad that we selected Lawrence as our agent. He has extensive experience and knowledge of market conditions and we had total confidence in his professionalism. His verbal and written communication skills were excellent, clear and considered, and he responded very quickly to any concerns we had. He organised the maintenance needed on our property without fuss and it was well done. His calm, thoughtful approach was appreciated very much at a stressful time. Thank you Lawrence and the Blackshaw team.

Great, empathetic communicator

We bought from Lawrence and were so pleasantly surprised by how smooth the whole process was. Friendly and attentive, without ever being pushy, we felt that Lawrence really helped both sides achieve a result they were happy with. Thanks Lawrence, would definitely recommend him

The rare agent who genuinely cares and delivers exceptional results

Lawrence Jacobsen is the kind of agent every seller hopes to find. We first met him at an auction while looking to purchase a property ourselves. Even before we became clients, he stood out as warm, kind, approachable and generous with his time. That first impression led us to trust him with the sale of our Hawker home and we are so glad we did. Lawrence took the time to get to know us, understand what mattered to our family and show genuine care beyond getting a sale opportunity. He has provided valuable advice across several of our properties, including practical guidance on renovations and improvements most likely to improve resale value. More than a year before selling in Hawker, he helped us focus our investment on the changes that would matter most to buyers. When it was time to sell, Lawrence was attentive, caring and proactive. He took ownership of preparing our home in a short timeframe, coordinating the key trades, staging, presentation work and all the details needed to give it the best possible chance in the market. Nothing was too much trouble, and he was always one step ahead. His communication was phenomenal. Lawrence was always available, kept us clearly informed and made us feel that our sale was his priority. We never had to chase him or worry that anything had been missed. He calmly guided us through each decision and made what could have been a stressful process feel seamless. Lawrence’s market knowledge, strategic advice, organisation and professionalism gave us complete confidence. Most importantly, he achieved the exact result we wanted; a smooth sale to a cash buyer and early settlement, just three weeks after the property first went on the market. The best endorsement we can give is that we immediately trusted Lawrence to sell another property for us. We could not recommend him more highly. Thank you, Lawrence!

Lawrence communicated clearly and effectively about the property's potential for sale.

Lawrence's knowledge of the market was matched by his effective marketing suggestions, which turned a property languishing on the market into a unit that sold. Some agents are slick and pushy. Lawrence's style is the opposite: unfailingly realistic, honest, open and forthright. He dealt in an even-handed way with both parties (buyer and seller).
