Buying a property under Covid restrictions is not an easy task. Being in lockdown in another state increases the degree of difficulty. Catherine was able to sort this with honesty and clarity. She was efficient and good-natured through the entire process.

We have bought and sold many properties over the years and can honestly say we have never encountered an agent as amazing as Catherine. We live interstate and Catherine was a real gem organising everything from the staging of the apartment and small repairs through to some difficult negotiations during and at the end of the auction process. Catherine is extremely knowledgeable in all areas of real estate, knows the market extremely well and was spot on with her expectations and guidance regarding the final selling price for our property. We felt in such good hands the whole way and are really delighted at the final price achieved. As well as all that Catherine is a very stylish lady and has a calm and re-assuring manner. We are actually sorry that we soon won't have need to chat with her on a regular basis. She feels like a friend.
It is no surprise to us that Catherine won North Sydney Agent of the Year 2020. She truly deserves it. Thanks so much for everything Catherine!

We believe your experience, timing, direction and understanding of the market place were crucial to the successful result you delivered... particularly in that difficult market. Your timing to place us in the market was perfect! Your very considerable communications and management skills throughout the process were also noted and appreciated along with your extensive local knowledge.
Sincere thanks Catherine and we look forward to working with you in the future.

My experience with Catherine has been very positive right from the start. She has shown great professionalism and acute up to date knowledge of the market. She is very caring and compassionate and provides very personal communication throughout the process. She always made sure I knew exactly what part of the process we were up to and I actually learnt a lot about the property market and it’s workings through Catherine. I would highly recommend Catherine to any seller/buyer and I hope to work with her again in the future.

Catherine was attentive to every request made in the lead up to the auction- I have found over time that that is not always the case with other agents I have dealt with.
All the information provided was accurate and very timely, providing the support that lead to a successful purchase.
I would happily recommend Catherine to friends and family.

I have no hesitation in recommending Catherine to prospective vendors. We were kept up to date with progress of the sale of our little studio apartment at all times, she coordinated inspections well with our existing tenant in place, price point was realistic, and our sale was concluded in a timely and professional manner. The few bumps along the way (purchaser requests and such) were dealt with professionally.
We'll certainly be in contact with Catherine for our next sale in the area.

Catherine Hawkins is the Real Deal!!
She is the best agent we have ever dealt with. Catherine is highly professional and experienced with extensive local knowledge. She did an exceptional job providing almost daily feedback on the progress of the campaign. We achieved an amazing result with the apartment comfortably exceeding the reserve.
Catherine is a highly ethical agent that treats everyone fairly, unlike other agents that play games with the price guide to attract more interest.
If your looking to sell your property, I would strongly recommend using Catherine Hawkins as your sales agent.

Catherine was a great real estate agent, couldn't ask for more. She is highly professional, polished, and has fantastic local knowledge. Her communication is second to none and she is very friendly without any R/E hype. Our McMahons Point unit sold seamlessly in less than 3 weeks and Catherine managed and respected the existing tenants wonderfully. You can't go wrong having Catherine manage your sale.

I have recently purchased an apartment through Richardson & Wrench, North Sydney. Right throughout the process, I have found Catherine to be an excellent communicator and efficient in emailing information and contacting me by phone. She has gone above the call of duty in assisting with information which has been invaluable. I have no hesitation in recommending her. Highly professional!

Phil was the main agent but our dealings were mainly with Catherine, however Phil was the decision maker to our knowledge and treated us very fairly when we made an immediate offer at the asking price. We found Phil to be honest and direct.

catherine really sold us walker street and then sold webb street.
she gave us early access to what we had wanted to buy and then calmly evaluated and guided us through our sale on our terms (we didn't want an auction or to spend money on upgrades, we wanted to sell "as is")
she accurately assessed the sale price, humoured us when we asked to put in on the market for more and managed the whole process with us overseas. she told the first person to make an offer what we would accept and short circuited any haggling. she is great.

Catherine managed the selling of our North Sydney flat. She was very professional and efficient and communicated very well with us from start to finish. She has also gone beyond by seeking updates from external bodies (City Council) on our behalf as well as covering items we could not address as we live abroad.
This was a great and easy selling experience!
We would definitely recommend using her service.

Our experience with Catherine was one of the most professional, efficient, friendly, and smooth transactions in real estate one could hope for. In addition to an outstanding and committed attitude to see the sale finalised for both vendor and purchaser, Catherine proved herself to be an honest, hard working and warm person. We would highly recommend Catherine for future real estate needs and thank her again for the easy and open communication in which she provided. Exceptional service and seamless transaction.

Catherine Hawkins was successful in selling a property for me 12 years ago and I was then most impressed with her expertise and professionalism. Therefore, when I decided to sell this present property, I didn't hesitate to ask Catherine to market it for me, which she did with a most satisfactory outcome. Her knowledge of the real estate market conveys a sense of confidence and security to her client, all with a caring and friendly manner.

I have dealt with several real estate agents, both as a buyer and purchaser in numerous locations. Catherine is the absolute best. Why? She honestly represented the vendor, who changed their mind on pricing, after the property was placed on the market and supported their rationale. She was knowledgeable about the building the apartment was in and provided honest open responses to my queries as a potential buyer. She followed up with the vendor and the tenants during the sale process to ensure the actual sale process and tenant notification processes went smoothly. This required considerable effort due to some poor performance by the vendor's conveyancing agent. She is knowledgeable about likely costs of renovations in the broader North Sydney area and so helped me determine what expenses I could incur to renovate the apartment. This has been a fabulous help given I have no previous experience in that part of Sydney. Further, she was prepared to share her broad knowledge of potential trades personnel and assist me in engaging them and facilitating access given I simply could not move in till work was done. In summary, Catherine was not only a thorough and honest agent for the vendor but has provided outstanding 'after sales service' to the buyer. She would be my first port of call if I had property to sell in her area of operation.
