We cannot thank John enough and we couldn’t be more pleased that we chose to work with him. This was our first time purchasing a property in Australia and John helped us navigate all of the processes and was incredibly responsive to our numerous questions. Everything went smoothly, which is testament to John’s thoroughness. He was a pleasure to work with and his fees are very reasonable. We highly recommend his services.

John was very professional throughout, gave good advice, was available whenever we needed to talk to him. The whole process went very smoothly. Legal fees paid were reasonable and clear. John's good advice saved us money as we had to make some changes after signing up the contract of sale. I am glad I availed John's services and would recommend him happily. Thank you John. MUHAMMAD

Hi John, being a first home buyer and unsure of the process. John's patience and guidance was of great value to me. John was always on hand for any questions that I may have and if he was unavailable his response was always prompt. John's thoroughness and clear communication with me allowed a smooth purchase for my property and I highly recommended John to anyone who is looking to purchase any property. SEAN DURRANT

Hi John, I just wanted to drop you a line to say thank you so much for all your help and support with the purchase of our new home. You always made yourself available to me, even if the question was not your responsibility, however you answered or, pointed me in the right direction, while always remaining the professional that you are. I can’t thank you enough John, and I would not hesitate to recommend you to anyone that may need the services of your business. Thanks again, EMMA BURMEISTER

Hi John, this is a letter to say thank you for all your help getting us into our first home. It was daunting and confusing for us when we started our search for our first home as we realised now is the time we need to buy for the first time but right from the start when you went through and checked the contract of sale for homes we were looking at, it was never a problem and you made it clear on what we need to look for and advising us every step of the way on what to do. I think for us it was very important we had a good relationship with a property solicitor and one we could trust as we were putting all our money on the line and putting all our trust in the advice given. At no time did we question John's advice or the way he went about working for us. He made it easy and as soon as we seemed confused he always replied quickly to any emails or phone calls. Anyone seeking a property solicitor, John is your man. I have no doubts he will do a great job. As soon as you speak to him for the first time you will realise he knows his stuff. Thanks John, we are now in our home and we can't thank you enough for handling all our legal paperwork in a professional and timely manner. We look forward to working with you in the future. Kind Regards, TIMOTHY & JESSIE

John is an excellent Solicitor. Our first home purchase was a pleasant experience with John being our Solicitor. He has an excellent knowledge and experience as a Solicitor. It was always easy to reach John over phone and he was always ready to answer our queries every time and guide us through. We never felt that our solicitor John was in a different state all together! He was like next to us all the time :) We would have no hesitation recommending John and his services to any of my friends and family. RAI & NISHA - Sydney, NSW

John has helped us on 2 occasions. Once with our first property purchase, and also for our commercial purchase using our SMSF. We were relieved to have someone so experienced on our side not knowing what we were up against. He guided us through the entire process with ease on both occasions, and his confidence at solving the problems we faced was great knowing we had someone with such experience available to us. He was also constantly updating us along the way, which is rare to find. He was recommended to us, and without hesitation, we will be recommending him to others. JOHN & LAUREN BES - Wollongong, NSW

To whom it my concern: We recently sold our house in Pascoe Vale and were given the services of John Benedetti through Brad Teal. We found John welcoming, friendly with his vast experience in residential property. His knowledge and perception made it easy for all of us. You are only good as your reputation and he delivered. He had trust with us and l had trust in him and that’s all l asked. l have no hesitation using John’s services again. JEFF & JULIE SMITH

John helped with the purchase of my first property. Having little experience in real estate myself, he was extremely helpful in guiding me through what was needed at each stage and made the process a lot easier than it would have been otherwise. The purchase itself was a very complex process, as the property was a deceased estate and came with a number of drawn out legal issues. John dealt with each issue as it arose without fuss, and maintained clear communication with myself so there was no doubt as to what was going on. I was thoroughly impressed with his methodical approach and would recommend him without hesitation. MATTHEW GALLAGHER

I have worked with John since early 2011 when I purchased my first property. John is patient, explains the processes clearly and is an excellent communicator. He always took the time to explain things that I didn't understand and never made me feel uneasy about asking sometimes obvious questions. John genuinely understands the needs (and often stresses) of his clients! His pricing is extremely reasonable and he was regularly available at short notice. I do not have a hesitation in recommending John to my friends and family for all their legal property matters. Frankly, I wouldn't use anyone else. JEN SLOANE

John was there for us every step of the way. He is approachable, knowledgeable and took the time to explain the process and answer any questions that we had. He was always following up and we never had to "check up" on how things were going - he kept us in the loop. MATTHEW FISHER
