I have bought three investment properties through Graeme Shiels of Property Queensland over the past six years and in the process have gained a very dear friend, who takes good care of my investments professionally, and with great care.
He has assisted the whole process of finding and financing the properties, and he has assisted me maintaining the properties, since I am an investor living in Jakarta, Indonesia.
What I really appreciate in having Graeme as my property agent and a friend, is that he is always easily reachable and available whenever I need assistance. He also keeps me up to date with current information on property investment in Australia.
He also has always been very helpful whenever I have visited Australia to inspect my investments, including taking me around to find some rare orchids and birds. I never hesitate to recommend Graeme to all my friends and associates interested investing in properties in Australia.
"Graeme Shiels of Property Queensland made the process of my first investment property smooth and assisted me through the complex new build process.
I will contact Graeme again when I am ready to invest in another property in South East Queensland.
Graeme went the extra mile and even assisted me by watering the grass of my new property."
"I contacted Graeme Shiels through an internet enquiry I made to Property Queensland for investment properties. He was very quick at responding to my enquiry, and after several conversations, gave me some very important opinions to start my investment portfolio. He dedicated a lot of his time with my business partner and I. We spent a whole day with Graeme, looking at different areas and we finally made a decision.
After the signing of the contracts, on the house and land package, not a week went by where I did not hear from Graeme. From property investment information, to photos of the house being built.
We did our house handover on the 25th May 2009, and would like to thank Graeme for the easy and no hassle way of dealing with what for some can be a complicated building process.
Along this whole process he has been very professional and we would like to thank him for this."
"I highly recommend your company, Property Queensland, to everybody because of your superior service.
You gave me lot of valued information and assistance in looking at the area in which I bought the property in Brisbane. During the building work, you gave me information on progress on a regular basis.
I am very happy that you took so much care of my property, including assistance with arranging for my first tenant to move in.
Many thanks Graeme."
"Being a busy professional, it seems that I never had enough time to think of property investment.
Fortunately, I found Property Queensland and met Graeme Shiels.
Graeme not only gave his valuable advice but also helped at each step from selection of the properties to finding tenants. He referred me to various other professionals who I also found very reliable. He also provided enough information about potentials of the properties I was interested in to help me to make an informed decision.
He is a great guy and has been available for me at any time that I needed him. If you are one of those people who do not have enough confidence in property investment, I recommend that you try contacting Property Queensland and talking to Graeme."
"Buying our investment property through Property Queensland, utilising Graeme Shiels' expertise made it a secure and easy transaction. Not only did Graeme demonstrate advanced knowledge of real estate and the market in general but was also familiar with the area we were looking in and able to offer us several investment selections.
Graeme also recommended us to a wonderful rental agent in the area with whom we are completely happy, and has further assisted us when contact was required with the builder for whitegoods purchase documents more than 12 months later.
We will certainly be in touch with Graeme again when we are ready for our next property purchase."
"As a property investor based in Hong Kong it was important for me to locate an agent that had experience in the property investment market and had a network of professionals that could be trusted and had service at the top of their agenda. I found this in Graeme Shiels of Property Queensland.
I have now worked with Graeme for around four years. During this time Graeme has helped me locate and invest in four properties and sell one. He has introduced me to professionals I have been comfortable working with. Graeme has always made himself available at anytime and is not a 9:00 to 5:00 person.
He goes beyond just selling a property; he provides a complete service, and it is one that lasts. He continues to keep me informed on the local market and when he locates good opportunities. Going beyond his duty has included driving an hour from his home to water a new lawn! How many people would do that for you without asking?
I highly recommend Property Queensland to anyone interested in forming a professional and long lasting relationship and investing in Queensland Real Estate, no matter where you reside. Graeme’s network, knowledge and analysis of data and the media is always worth listening too - I have not been disappointed to date. Experience and integrity are hard to find and well worth keeping once you have found it.
I also now regard Graeme as a good friend."
"We have engaged Graeme Shiels from Property Queensland to purchase two investment properties in Brisbane’s Ipswich district for us.
As we live in South Australia we really needed someone who was honest, thorough and supportive. We have been able to contact Graeme on all occasions and he has been very helpful in putting us in touch with the right people for assistance in other areas of purchasing and rentals.
Graeme provides us with regular updates and photos of the progress, the area and other pending opportunities that arise. You don’t just get the sale and goodbye, he follows through with the journey and more.
We have recommended our friends to Graeme and they also have been happy with his high level of commitment. Graeme will definitely be our first point of call for further property information and assistance."
"I first met Graeme Shiels of Property Queensland in early 2007 when wishing to purchase an investment property close to my home in the Ipswich area. He immediately made himself available to take me on a personal inspection of a number of suitable house and land packages, one of which I purchased at a cost well below other competitors.
Throughout the entire process of finalising the land and having the house built he maintained constant contact and was always available for advice and liaison as required.
My investment property is now working for me and I have Graeme’s prompt action in finding this property, to thank for that. I would certainly recommend Graeme to any prospective buyer and I would definitely purchase through Property Queensland again."
"Being someone who has bought two properties through Property Queensland, and considering a third one in the near future, I can’t thank you enough for all the positive outcomes from my dealings with you. Needless to say, I am very happy I trusted your knowledge, and acted upon your advice, considering the fact that both the properties have appreciated in value and going by actual, and future planned projects for the area, will no doubt continue to do so.
I remember how it all started with a simple phone call from home in WA which resulted in me jumping on a plane to Qld the following week. I was very impressed with the choice of different estates, and sub divisions you drove me to, so I could have my own opinion, and the choices were enormous.
I particularly liked the way you assisted in the buying process, the feedback throughout the different construction stages, and relevantly, you organised for a printout of expected weekly rentals for my bank finance purposes. More important still, was the fact that you even followed up on the builder for me, months after the warranty on the property had expired, which was quite significant to me, as I live so far away.
I definitely would have no second thought dealing with you again, and would recommend Property Queensland to anyone considering buying a property.
Many thanks."
"It is indeed a pleasure to thank and commend Graeme for his most professional care and attention provided to us in a number of property transactions both selling and buying over the past five years, his actions have always been conducted in a timely, fair, no nonsense manner, accompanied by informed advice as to the best way forward.
We would not only recommend his services, but also not hesitate in engaging his services for our future property needs."
"I just wanted to say thank you for all the work that you have done for us with the property at Dan Street. Everything went along very smooth and we are grateful for the support and updates all the way through the building side of things.
We are very happy with the end result and the quality of the building. We will definitely recommend your services to friends who are in the position of building or buying an investment property.
Thanks again."
