Christine Case and Bill Akhurst were incredible organising both our sale in Sylvania and then our purchase in Burraneer Bay, Sydney. We spontaneously went to auction to bid for a home in Burraneer Bay, Christine and Bill organised everything within 48 hours. We live in Europe so there were time differences and financial borrowing challenges that made both transactions legally complicated.Christine was super efficient and detailed, absolutely brilliant.We would highly recommend Christine and the team at Stacks Forster.Thank you so much Christine and Bill.Deb and Steve Butel
