I can’t speak highly enough of my experience with Ari Agency. Arija is connected, experienced, professional and very hard working.

We had a great experience with Arija and Gavin.

It was the…

We had been searching for our dream home for close to a year when we were referred to Ari Agency by a local real estate agent. Not only did Arija & Gavin take a huge amount of stress off our hands, they worked hard to find and negotiate the perfect property for us in only…

A wonderful service, I can highly recommend Ari Agency. We have very specific accessibility needs, and don’t live in Sydney, so buying a property was a daunting task.

Ari agency delivered and met all our expectations of a buyers agent. They supported our journey as first home buyers and were transparent and clear with realistic feedback based on our desires. As a qualified and willing buyer they delivered off market and market opportunities that reduced the stress and burden of endless new relationships…

Initially I was very hesitant to engage a buyer’s agent. Let’s save the money I thought… So, we decided to “go alone” for a while, only to be left after 6 months in a state of despair and hopelessness. We had spent many Wednesdays and Saturdays looking at numerous homes. Hours we will never get…

We had been searching for a property for 18 months before we met Arija. After seeing almost 50+ properties ourselves we decided it was time to get some professional help. Our hearts wanted a property in our current area. With Arija’s expertise, strong relationships, hard work and commitment to understanding our brief, and with a…

We had such a wonderful time buying our property with Gavin and Ari. From day one they helped find many off market properties that fit our brief until they found our perfect place. Highly recommend to anyone buying property!

Professional, patient and extremely good at what she does – Arija helped us during a time when there seemed to be very little on the market.

We worked with Arija to purchase our first property during one of the hottest markets in 4 decades and with our second baby on the way (third tri.) Arija was responsive and patient with our questions (and sometimes panic!) over the weeks we were looking. She was also very honest when it was clear the…

I found Gavin & Arija very, very supportive and reliable. They offered very good advice & information but were NOT pushy in any way. They provided help and information when I needed it.Always there when I needed advice. I would strongly recommend both Gavin & Arija.

After relocating from Melbourne, we knew we wanted to buy a home in Mosman. We knew very little about Mosman and even less about the Mosman housing market, so we knew we need help. Arija was very patient with us. It took us a while to come to terms with the price difference between Melbourne…

Arija was amazing. So patient with me as I sorted through exactly what I wanted and ultimately lead us to our perfect new family home. I know that we would never have found this house without Arija’s assistance. Highly recommend.

Arija was great to have on our side. She is an active listener, and took time and care to understand the full scope of our property buying brief. Arija then took that brief and presented us with pre-market opportunities, and potential properties that fit the brief exactly. Through all of the many calls during negotiations…

Arija worked tirelessly on finding and obtaining the best possible match for our brief and the end result was far better than we hoped for. It was also a fascinating education into the real estate market, with insights you would never have without an insider on you side.

I was recommended to Arija by my partner who had used her services to purchase property in the past. Right from the start Arija was very pleasant to work with and was extremely efficient and professional in her approach to finding me the right property. She not only found me the perfect property within only…

Arija is, in a word, phenomenal! We started with a budget of 750k for a free standing investment property. Arija was able to find better opportunities in my preferred areas for well under budget until I settled on one for 650k. She then managed to negotiate a further 5k off the price – amazing! Throughout…

Arija helped me find an apartment in Sydney that was spacious, affordable, on a nice street and suitable for the dogs. I didn’t think it was possible! She also saved me money. Other properties are selling for at least $70k more in the same area. Arija, thank-you for all your help. You helped me achieve…

Imagine you’re 7 months pregnant, your property search is going nowhere and your landlord suddenly announces they’re selling and you have to move out 1 week before the baby is due. We chose to go with a buyers agent because we were time poor, and Arija specifically because we felt she really listened, combined with…

Arija was amazing! Very patient especially as my specs changed numerous times. I would use Arija again in the future and would definitely recommend her.

We recently employed Arija for her services and can easily say that we would not have purchased the property we did if it wasn’t for her. From the first time we met her we knew she was the agent for us. She asked all the right questions about what we were looking for and then…

Having Arija onboard is the best investment of my money throughout the whole purchasing process. Not only is Arija exceptional to work with – professional, positive, realistic and passionate, but her follow through and determination to land the deal is highly impressive. I have already recommended her to friends, and will use her again for…

Working with Arija was the best investment after my own long, frustrating and disappointing search for a new home had not been successful.

My Mortgage Broker recommended Arija to me, as I live out of Sydney much of the time, and was having difficulty buying a family home in Sydney. From the first phone call I had with Arija, I felt I was in capable hands and I was relieved to have met her.  Arija spent a lot…

Thank you for your assistance in finding me this beautiful unit. The professionalism you showed and always keeping me updated along the way, I couldn’t be happier. I would have no hesitation in recommending Cohen Handler to anyone wanting to purchase a property.

Just want to say a massive thanks for the assistance in helping me purchase my first property. Cohen Handler gives a great service and I’d recommend to anyone looking. Arija was just super to deal with, she’s a legend. It took a huge amount of pressure off, I really appreciate it. Thank you.

Thanks Arija for all your help, you have been amazing and we certainly wouldn’t have had such a great outcome without you!  It feels like we actually saved money by having you help us even including the commission!  I’ll definitely be recommending you to anyone looking to buy.

We made the decision to use a buyer’s agent as we were incredibly time poor with running two businesses and we wanted the little down time we had to be spent with our family rather than driving between open home inspections every weekend. We chose Cohen Handler, and more specifically Arija McQuillan, after searching online…
