Zappa produced a lovely write up of my home and worked closely with Brett when my home was on the market to achieve a very satisfactory outcome. I would highly recommend Buxton Leopold to my friends and family if they were to be putting their home on the market.

Selling a property can be a stressful experience, but working with Zappa from Buxton in Geelong made the entire process remarkably smooth. From our initial consultation through to the final settlement, Zappa consistently demonstrated exceptional patience and unwavering professionalism. What truly stood out was his understanding and accommodating approach. The Geelong market can have its nuances, and Zappa took the time to thoroughly explain every step, answer my countless questions

Vincent T

Would absolutely recommend Zappa if you are looking to sell your home. Easy to communicate with, always prompt to reply but without the pushy sales approach. Helped to achieve a great result in a very short time. Thanks for all your help Zappa!

With his knowledge of the market and our specific area, Zappa secured a great outcome for us in just a few weeks, going above and beyond to help us in one of the most challenging stages of life.

Zappa did an excellent job with selling the house and communicating with us during each stage of the sale.

Rob S

Leopold

Being a first time seller in today’s market was quite daunting, and unfortunately I made a decision to go with a different real estate to list my house for sale……it was a nightmare transaction! Even though Buxton didn’t have my initial business, Zappa was an amazing support for my family through a very difficult situation. Once I was able to be released from my contract with the other company, Zappa took us through a safe, and secure process to relist our home, and sold it within 24 hours!

Leopold

From the moment I spoke to Zappa I was impressed. He sounded keen and excited to help. His knowledge and enthusiasm were impressive, and nothing was too hard. He was so helpful at every step and his communication was great. I can easily say that Zappa is the best agent I’ve ever worked with - and we were so impressed with him we’ve listed another property with him.

Zappa was lovely to work with, easy to talk to and super helpful and supportive throughout the process.

Frequently Asked

Here to help

Your Buxton agent will cover the details - here’s a clear view of what an appraisal involves.

We approach appraisals as a practical conversations, grounded in real data, local insight and what matters most to you.

Speak to us

Your Buxton agent visits your property, considers its features, location, and market conditions, and combines that with recent sales data to give you a clear, realistic view of its value.

We analyse comparable properties, current market trends, and your home’s unique qualities. From there, we provide a considered range that reflects what buyers are likely to pay.

Not at all. An appraisal is simply insight - a way to understand your home’s value and your options before making any decisions.

Typically, we recommend an in-person appraisal so we can assess your property fully. In some cases, a virtual appraisal can provide a helpful initial guide.

Agents weigh factors differently - recent sales, market conditions, and property features. At Buxton, we combine local insight, data, and experience to provide a balanced, realistic appraisal you can trust.
