We had a great experience selling through Cam and Tim in Balnarring. Both were a clear cut above other agents we interviewed. They were honest/realistic in their advice, provided great local market insight, helped ensure the property was presented to maximise appeal and did what they said they would do. They identified the likely buyer and shepherded the sale through in a difficult market in a short period of time. What more can you ask for? The result more than exceeded our already high expectations. Highly recommend.

Dealing with Tim Ripper & Cam Jamison was quite refreshing. They assisted me with the sale of my father's house in Balnarring - communications were spot on, pricing estimates were realistic and Tim especially, kept me appraised of all offers and relevant information. I selected Buxton Real Estate out of four other agents in the area and based on their local experience and gut feeling, they did not disappoint. I would recommend Buxton Real Estate - all my dealings were clear with no unrealistic expectations placed on house prices in the area. A refreshing experience.

Superb vendor experience with intelligent, accurate and realistic appraisal of our property, the appropriate process for putting it on the market, and continued energy and professionalism all the way to the finalising a sale. Impressed by the communication, attention to our particular needs and follow up on any issue. Buxtons the team to approach for Peninsula property.

Tim Ripper is an outstanding agent who worked tirelessly throughout our sales process. Tim has an excellent understanding of the local market and was able to guide us through the process from start to finish. He has a wonderful positive and professional manner, is honest and transparent as well as a great communicator. Tim provided frequent and regular updates on the property sale and was able to answer all our questions as they arose. We would highly recommend Tim to other vendors.

We recently sold our home/property Our home of 47 years bringing up children in a rural setting with many animals and freedom of exploring and fostering imagination. We moved on to grandchildren. Our home provided love and laughter and the preferred place for celebrations. A glorious time As we grew older the decision to sell was very difficult. Sam Moffatt and Tim Ripper had an inert understanding of our situation and their care and real understanding they provided made every step of the process that much easier. Now we have sold and moving onto our next stage we are forever grateful that we chose them as our agent.

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.
