Karina Bloomfield

Straightforward, Honest and Reliable

"Mark did an excellent job researching the market for our category of property, developing a marketing campaign, and completing the negotiations for the ultimate sale of our property. It was a pleasure dealing with him and we would highly recommend Mark O'Shea Realty to anyone selling a home in Bendigo wanting an honest, straightforward agent who is reliable and confident in his abilities."

Mark & Vanessa Murray.

We had no question Mark was the one to sell our property

"We are very lucky to have known Mark for about 15 years. During that time we sold two properties with Mark which were seamless and very positive.
As we approach semi-retirement, we keep in touch with Mark to stay informed and up to date with current trends to make future decisions easy.
We trust Mark on all things real estate and are very grateful for the time that he gives us - past, present, and future!"

Fantastic experience overall...

"Over the past ten years, we have purchased three homes in Bendigo and sold one. All of these transactions were handled by Mark O’Shea, so when the time came to sell our property at 9 Highland Way, Maiden Gully (which Mark had sold to us), he was the only agent we chose to contact.
After our previous buying and selling experiences, we were very confident choosing Mark, but as we move into retirement, achieving the best sale price this time was especially important to us. Mark did not let us down, he gave us sound advice on a sales strategy, carefully managed our marketing budget, and sold the property quickly, and for a figure above the asking price. We had complete trust in Mark, but he backed this advice and his service with his Fair Go Guarantee. This was comforting and reassuring for us as the process was very transparent, and we haven’t heard of another Bendigo agent that offers their clients a post-sale “Agent Accountability” guarantee. Thanks so much, Mark, for helping us achieve another terrific result.

Such a positive experience!

"Our ownership journey with 78 Victoria Street started in March 2010 and finished in August 2022 buying and selling the home through Mark O’Shea.
When we contacted Mark in 2021 to appraise the home, he was more than happy to accommodate our request knowing we had the option to sell the home off the market to a family member. Fast forward to May 2022 and our plan to sell privately was derailed so we had no hesitation in sending out an SOS to Mark, knowing the property market was entering a new phase after the first interest rate increase. After meeting Mark for the second time we were more than comfortable trusting him to manage the sale of 78 Victoria Street. Before we knew it all aspects of his marketing strategy were rolling out.

Like most home sellers there is always the fear of selling too cheaply, but Mark’s pricing strategies and on-market communications gave us the time and confidence to make informed decisions when it came to setting and adjusting our market price and accepting our final sale price. In the end, we were lucky to have two buyers extremely interested in 78 Victoria Street which pushed the price up. We found the management of the sales negotiations a very transparent and fair process for all the parties through an online negotiation platform. 

We also believe the property research that Mark conducted on 78 Victoria Street added additional value to our final sale price. He contacted the City of Bendigo planning department on our behalf about a gated laneway that had the potential to provide rear access to our property and with his encouragement, we pursued this with the council and uncovered the gateway was a legal access point. (Note: we had been previously advised it wasn’t). The flexibility of two access points into the property definitely increased buyer interest and our sale price.

Mark explained he offered all his clients a “zero to full fee “ advice and service guarantee which he called the “Fair Go Guarantee “ before we signed the selling agreement we honestly didn’t give it much thought, but after 78 Victoria Street was unconditionally sold, we received an email asking us to nominate the selling fee we were happy to pay. It turns out it was a real “agent accountability guarantee with no catches as he had told us at the start. It is not hard to guess we were happy to pay the fee we agreed to at the start of the campaign. We can now start preparing for our country's escapes in our new motorhome."

Thanks, Mark.
