What My Clients Are Saying ...
Thrilled with our sales experience! This is the second home we have sold with Nic and we honestly couldn't imagine trusting our business with any other agent. Nic's advice was invaluable at each stage in the process and he helped us to consider a range of sales options (including some we had previously dismissed) which resulted in a positive end result for us. Nic's integrity and diligence in our communications showed us we could trust him to manage the sale of our home to the highest standard while we concentrated on all the other aspects of our move. It was clear at every point in the process that Nic was there to help us achieve our aims, rather than dictate them.
ALYCE & ALISTAIR - LATHAM
(Sold multiple properties with Nic)
Very professional, gave honest estimate which proved most accurate. Nic was most helpful giving assistance in making the process of selling my property relatively stressless to me. He made arrangements for additional services to be provided to present the property well.
JIM - HACKETT
(Sold with Nic)
My mum and I were with another Real Estate company and our house was listed with them for 8 months without any luck. The service we received from them was horrendous, we were passed around to 3 different agents. One time they didn't even show up to an open inspection, my poor mum who hardly speaks English had to show 11 groups of people through the house. Those agents even argued with her because she wanted to update the description of the house. They even persuaded us to do an auction and nobody except the neighbours showed up. All of this is only the tip of the mountain of issues we had with them.
It was an absolute blessing when Nic and his team reached out to us because we were listed on their database. My mum and I decided to sack the other agents and jumped on the opportunity for a fresh start with Nic. It was the best decision ever, and we wished we had worked with him from the start. Nic managed to sell our house in a few weeks!! We were absolutely over the moon with the outcome, and how kind and professional Nic and his team were during the whole process. Nothing felt like a transaction, it felt like a friend was helping us out. I've recommended all my friends in Canberra to see Nic when they go to sell. Such a genuinely nice guy and so are the whole team. They've been such a pleasure to work with and have restored our trust in dealing with Real Estate agents.
MARLOU - HARRISON
(Sold with Nic)
Sold my property in no time. Nic is an experienced Real Estate Agent who assisted me in selling my property within a very short period and delivered good results while the property market was struggling. I give him 10/10 and would highly recommend him to others.
IMRAN - TAYLOR
(Sold with Nic)
A very professional service. Nic clearly explained the current housing market and the options that I needed to consider during the sales process. He was patient and supportive which helped me manage my stress levels.
IVEN - GUNGAHLIN
(Bought & Sold with Nic)
We had previously used Nic Salter-Harding of LJ Hooker. In both cases, we had to interact remotely as we don't live in Canberra. Working remotely however was no impediment, as Nic and his very capable team provided prompt and efficient assistance. It seemed that in no time at all the unit was sold for a good price. Nic provides a courteous and very professional service.
ROBERT & ALISON - O'CONNOR
(Bought & Sold with Nic)
As Nic had previously superbly promoted and sold a retirement village residence for us, it was an easy decision to approach him again to handle the sale of our apartment. Nic has an unerring ability to capture the full benefits of the property, both features of the home and location, and presents them in print and multimedia in an engaging and attractive way. Communication with Nic is always excellent; he was readily available, and made our end of the sale easier, providing us with sound advice and recommendations along the way. We felt secure in his expertise and track record, with his accompanying personable and professional manner. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend him and/or use Nic's services again.

MEL - DOWNER
(Sold with Nic)
I have had an amazing experience with Nic in selling my property. The sales contract was signed within 2 weeks of the property being advertised at a price higher than I expected. Nic has great experience in property sales, he gave a few really good tips on improving the property as well as marketing strategy, which I believe has contributed to the successful deal.
RAUSHAN - CURTIN

Throughout the process of selling our home, Nic was an exceptional agent in the way he supported us and kept us informed on every step, stage and any actions we needed to take to ensure we got an excellent outcome at the sale. He set realistic expectations on our likely sale price, and was often able to clearly and concisely set out recommendations based on his significant experience in the Canberra market. We highly recommend Nic for anyone looking to purchase or sell a property.
MIKE AND LISA - PALMERSTON
(Sold with Nic)
I want to thank Nic for the exceptional experience I have had selling my property. He has been very friendly and open throughout the process, and I have appreciated the honest communications as we progressed through the sale. As a first-time seller, Nic's pertinent advice and guidance has ensured that my experience was as stress-free and simple as possible. He kept in regular communication throughout and was happy to take the time whenever I called to answer questions that I had. Overall, I feel Nic has gone above and beyond, and I firmly believe he put the effort into ensuring the best outcome possible. I'd highly recommend working with Nic if you're looking to sell your property.
ANDREW - BRADDON
(Sold with Nic)
I had the pleasure of dealing with Nic in a previous sale with an excellent experience, so when we decided to sell our family home I thought of him and he was the right choice for us. Professional and knowledgeable from the start, Nic did a great job at securing us the best opportunity.
CARLA & ANDREW - BONYTHON
(Sold multiple properties with Nic)
Nic went above and beyond to assist us in purchasing our first home. He was very knowledgeable and helpful. Nic was there with us every step of the way, helping us look for the right home. He provided very useful insights and information to help us find somewhere that was right for us, and was quick to arrange private inspections for us. He had had a very good experience and highly recommend Nic.
TANYA & ALUNTUM - KAMBAH
(Bought with Nic)
Nic and Jonathan were amazing to deal with. We had a great experience selling with them. From start to finish they were not only professional but always friendly and understood what we wanted to achieve as the end result. Nic made the selling process an enjoyable experience. We would highly recommend Nic to anyone thinking of selling.
GAB & LENIE - BRADDON
(Sold with Nic)
As a first time buyer the whole experience was very daunting. After months of searching and meeting multiple agents I found Nic very refreshing & down to earth. He was straight forward & receptive to all my questions. Once I decided to buy, he got me in touch with a brilliant broker, which helped immensely along the way. I was pleasantly surprised with beautiful bow on my door when I first got the keys & a lovely gift box. Jonathan, his assistant, was equally as wonderful. Nice work team!
CHER - BRADDON
(Bought with Nic)
I have found Nic Salter-Harding to be a personable, professional and motivated agent. His depth of knowledge, calm demeanour and expert advice has been greatly appreciated. He certainly knows his craft. He exceeded my expectations in both the sale of my current property and the purchase of my next home. Every step of the way I have felt supported by Nic and his expert team with sincerity and understanding. Being a widow, it has been a difficult decision to up and move to a new location at this stage of life. I have no hesitation in recommending Nic.
JENNY - KAMBAH
(Bought & Sold with Nic)
The consummate professional and auctioneer extraordinaire! Nic is definitely one of the best. As our auctioneer in the recent sale of our home, Nic's care, manner and unwavering determination to ensure that all parties were happy and satisfied with the outcome, was an amazing feat. We highly recommend Nic for his superior negotiation skills and his ability to interpret the situation and respond effectively to both buyer and seller alike. Denise & Con Stathis
DENISE & CON - WANNIASSA

Nic was very professional and knowledgeable about the market, and set realistic expectations on the price. He offered suggestions regarding the presentation, regularly communicated after open houses, and worked the bidders very well on auction night.
ROBYN & OLE - DOWNER
(Sold with Nic)
Nic sent me details of other properties in and around my area and how much they were being sold for so I could get an understanding of price expectations without just telling me without anything to back it up. From the time I signed with him until the auction any questions I had were answered, any information I needed was communicated to me and i would happily recommend him to family and friends.
ERIKA - FRASER
(Sold with Nic)
Nic was the ultimate professional showing great industry knowledge and experience. Additionally he was infinitely patient with us as sellers. We’d highly recommend Nic!
BILL & MEG - MCKELLAR
(Sold with Nic)
Nic is an open, friendly person. He was helpful and knowledgeable during the selling process and he suggested options how to prepare the property for sale.
SALLY - FISHER
(Sold with Nic)
Selling units in Aged Care Villages has been a very neglected market by the real estate industry. However Nic impressed me with his commitment, knowledge and inter-personal skills in dealing with me as a seller of my aunt’s property. It is a tough time, when sellers are often doing so as they are moving into permanent residential aged care or they have passed away. Nic’s efficiency, market knowledge and his compassion were hugely appreciated, as was his ability to get a great price for the unit.
TRISH - FISHER
(Sold with Nic)
Nic is a highly professional, knowledgeable and personable agent. He led me through the sales process in a way that made it very easy for me. He gave me appropriate advice at appropriate times and was there for backup when needed. He also got an outstanding price for my property. Thank you Nic, it has been the greatest pleasure working with you as my sales agent.
JANE - WATSON
(Bought & Sold with Nic)
Nic came recommended by a friend and after meeting with him in person I had no hesitations in engaging him for the sale of my unit. Nic stepped me through the selling process in detail, kept me informed along the way and managed negotiations with the buyer quickly and efficiently. A pleasure to work with and highly recommended.
ANGELA - BRADDON
(Sold with Nic)
Nic was very efficient professional and knowledgable. He was always available, communicated well and kept me posted. He found a buyer quickly and achieved a good price. I thoroughly recommend Nic for the job, thank you.
KATRINA - BRADDON
(Sold with Nic)
A true leader. Nic sets an example which many could learn from, being empathetic towards clients, and meeting the needs of both buyer and seller. Nic was able to calmly work his way through over 100 enquiries during our campaign, and follow up with each person after opens. It truly shows the care he takes with buyers to follow up the top level marketing he brings to market. We highly recommend watching the informative videos Nic produces when considering agents for listing your place. Nic is able to provide in-depth info in a short video, which provides a picture of what it’s like to live in the home. Amazing marketing, and his genuine nature provides a customer service of high standard. All qualities of a professional, and his efforts made for a pleasant sale. Thank you.
SCOTT & LAUREN - CRACE
(Sold multiple properties with Nic)
Nic got a great result with the sale of my property. He and his team listened to my concerns and gave me good advice. I felt I was in good hands and supported throughout the process.
SANDRA - DOWNER
(Sold with Nic)
From the first time I met Nic, he has displayed a high level of professionalism. His advice and help with preparing the house for sale greatly improved its presentation. Original predictions re sale price were realistic, and with a rising market, and the excellent work by he and his team, were exceeded by a pleasing margin.
ALAN - DOWNER
(Sold with Nic)
Nic and the team at LJ Hooker Dickson exceeded our expectations with the sale of our property. They delivered an exceptional sale campaign with highly professional photos, video and 3D virtual touring (which proved valuable during the Covid-19 pandemic). Despite the current unit market in Canberra, Covid-19 restrictions and our need to sell promptly , Nic was able to draw upon his experience and intimate understanding of the property market to achieve a fantastic result with the unit selling for more than we anticipated. We highly recommend Nic and his team.
AARON - TURNER
(Sold with Nic)
Nic was a great asset to the sale of our Canberra property. He took my wife and me through our options and was always available for questions. Being first time sellers, Nic was very supportive and made sure we were informed and felt comfortable at every stage of the process. Highly recommend!
MIKE & JAC - WRIGHT
(Sold with Nic)
Nic was very straightforward, friendly and easy to deal with as a buyer, and I felt that he was open and honest while there was a lot of competition over a short period of time for the property.
MEGAN - TURNER
(Bought with Nic)
Nic has an excellent knowledge of what is happening in the real estate market and can give realistic advice as to sales price. He has an amazing network of people to help bring your property to the market. Easy to talk to, professional efficient and friendly. A pleasure to work with.
YVONNE - FISHER
(Sold with Nic)
We bought our place from Nic a few years ago. As first home buyers in our 20s, we had felt overlooked and ignored by so many other real estate agents at open for inspections, as they focused mainly on talking to middle-aged investors. Nic treated us as serious buyers from the start and was fantastic to engage with as a buyer.
When it came time to selling our place, Nic was the first person we thought of. We got some quotes from other real estate agents too, but Nic was by far the most responsive, which gave us confidence that he would follow up with every single person who went through our house. Nic assisted us with preparing the property for sale, including organising cleaning, etc. while we were interstate. It was a very easy process, and he kept us informed of how everything was progressing.
Our place sold and exchanged within half a week, at a record price for 2 bedroom apartments in the building. We couldn’t be happier with the process, and would definitely recommend Nic to all of our friends.
PAULINE & LACHLAN - TURNER
(Bought & Sold with Nic)
This was a deceased estate. Nic prepared the marketing of the house. He was able to line up a series of inspections and the house was sold in a relatively short time frame. The house is situated in a retirement village, and over the past twelve months Nic has managed to transform the marketing of the village from a situation where there were more than ten unsold houses to a situation where there is a waiting list of buyers.
I can wholeheartedly recommend Nic Salter Harding to any seller or buyer who is interested in buying or selling a house in the Canberra area. His role at this retirement village has been truly transformative.
PETER - FISHER
(Sold with Nic)
The listing of the unit from my father's estate was seamless from beginning to end. Nic was a pleasure to deal with at all times. He knew the market we were playing in intimately, and provided sage advice when it was requested, along with regular updates on progress. we greatly appreciate him and his team, and recommend them wholeheartedly!
BRETT - FISHER
(Sold with Nic)
We have recently bought into a retirement village and sold our home of almost fifty years, and Nic Salter-Harding has been with us every step of the way. He was most efficient and always cheerful, helpful and available. Thank you, Nic.
ROSEMARY & JOHN - WARAMANGA
(Bought & Sold with Nic)
Above and Beyond. Nic showed a genuine desire to do all that was needed to get the job done. Highly recommended.
BRIAN & HEIDI - WEE JASPER
(Sold with Nic)
Other realtors had listings where we were interested in, but we chose to work with Nic because he was so caring about the needs of both the seller and the buyer.
JANE & DOC - FISHER
(Bought with Nic)
Nic and his team were very professional and easy to deal with throughout the whole process. He kept us informed, and advised us well throughout the campaign. Thanks Nic for helping us to get a great result!
REBECCA - SWINGER HILL
(Bought & Sold with Nic)
I originally had my property listed with another agent for 10 months unsuccessfully. However, after listing with Nic, we suddenly had several potential buyers available and the property was sold and settled within the space of 2 months.
Nic's approach to marketing is very dynamic, and he was always immediately responsive to any questions I had made via telephone, text or email. In fact, he made himself so available that it caused me to wonder how he found the time for any other clients.
Nic was always honest and open about any matters connected with our sale.
JOHN - FISHER
(Sold with Nic)
Nic and myself had been talking about selling my apartment for a couple of years. Nic kept me up to date with market developments. When it finally came time to sell, Nic was excellent at explaining the process and marketing strategy. Nic was great at communicating what was happening at the home opens, and the feedback received by potential buyers. On the day of the auction, Nic clearly explained the process and to my surprise, it was nowhere near as stressful as I had imagined. Overall, Nic was very knowledgeable of the current market, utilised social media effectively and was just great to deal with!
MARTEN - TURNER
(Sold with Nic)
I found Nic to be very pleasant and professional. He was in no way pushy or trying to oversell the property. He clearly answered any questions I had, and always promptly followed up with phone enquiries. I found my dealings with Nic to be a rewarding experience.
JEFF - FISHER
(Bought with Nic)
I wanted to take the time to send you a letter of thanks for all you have done for my partner and myself in recent weeks, even under the trying conditions of COVID.
From our first meeting with you about my property, I felt completely at ease that our goals were perfectly aligned in the sale of my home. Your work on the advertisement, the speed in which you readied your marketing team, and the professionalism I received throughout the entire experience have been beyond my highest expectations.
Added to the positive experience of working with you and your team, the end result has also been exceptional and we are thrilled! I would not hesitate in recommending you to anyone in Canberra and will certainly be working exclusively with you in future.
We can’t wait to move into our new home and have you over.
ALYCE & ALISTAIR - TURNER
(Sold with Nic)
We first met Nic as buyers, and were so impressed that we chose him to sell our home. Nic's friendly and professional approach made the process as stress-free as possible.
LOUISE & STUART - HACKETT
(Sold multiple properties with Nic)
I have had the delight of working with Nic to sell a unit in QBN. Nic is always professional, his market knowledge is extensive, and he provided all the support to ensure the sale went seamlessly. He was able to secure a purchaser with a cash offer within the first week of it being on the market.
I can highly recommend Nic and his team to sell your property, and will be using Nic for any future Real Estate needs I may have.
JUDI MARTIN - CRESTWOOD
(Sold with Nic)
Nic was the model agent - responsive, honest and hard working. We trusted Nic with the sale of our apartment while at various times overseas and interstate, and had complete confidence in his ability at every stage of the process. He didn't once let us down, and he made what would have otherwise been a very stressful process as stress-free and straightforward as possible. We highly recommend him.
JORDAN & SARAH - KINGSTON
(Sold with Nic)
Nic has been a great Real Estate agent to deal with. His knowledge of the housing market made it easy to sell my property in a very short time frame. Nic was always informative when it came to the progression of my property first being listed on the market, through to when it sold. If I ever need to buy or sell a property in Canberra again, I will definitely seek Nic's expertise. A big thank you, Nic.
DENNIS - WATSON
(Sold with Nic)
I am more than happy to recommend Nic to any prospective client wishing to sell an apartment in the Inner North. From the outset, we planned a highly effective marketing strategy, which survived unamended to the night of the auction. His advice was always frank, and an accurate assessment of the issues at hand. I can highly recommend his video promotions in particular, but all he did was wonderful.
MURRAY - TURNER
(Sold with Nic)
As always, Nic came through with the goods. Thank you, fantastic work!
TRENT - GRIFFITH
(Bought & Sold multiple properties with Nic)
Nic is honest and hard working, and knows what he is doing. He was able to offer advice on the best selling strategy for my particular circumstances. I also appreciated receiving regular updates on the outcomes of open homes and buyer offers.
RHYLL - CANBERRA CITY
(Sold multiple properties with Nic)
Nic and his team were excellent to work with throughout the process. We had constant communication and advice and never felt pressured. We were working to a tight timeframe which Nic and his team were able to accommodate. We got a great result with four offers on the table within 24 hour of our first inspection so were very pleased.
KIM & BRAD - KINGSTON
(Sold with Nic)
My sister and I recently sold our family home after our parents passed away. It was a very emotionally difficult thing to do. We really wanted an agent that was sincere, reliable and importantly, a genuinely understanding, nice person. Nic is all this, plus a very good agent. I had seen him in action as a buyer, and knew he would do a thoroughly professional job, treating people with respect and also getting a good outcome for us. Nic and his team did a great job and we sold for a good price. We highly recommend Nic.
STUART - WEETANGERA
(Sold multiple properties with Nic)
My instinct was correct!
Nic did a great job right from the start. He answered all my questions and gave great advice about marketing and pricing. He has a good reputation, but also has a quality that is very important - he is passionate about his job and believes in what he is doing. It has been a very easy and smooth process, and my apartment is successfully sold to someone who fell in love with it.
PATSY - O'CONNOR
(Sold with Nic)
Excellent agent, responsive and managed the marketing of the property very well. The auction was extremely well attended with over 70 people, which is a very high number in the current market. I was very pleased with the result. Nic and Maddie were able to manage and facilitate all trades, repairs a the property etc prior to the marketing process this was most helpful as I had just welcomed a new baby and was very busy. I am a keen property investor and have good knowledge of the market and normally sell my own properties so I have high expectations and Nic was able to meet this with no issue.
TANIA - HACKETT
(Sold multiple properties with Nic)
Nic and his team ticked all the boxes when it came to delivering a great Real Estate experience...
Firstly, his appraisal was no-nonsense, clear and thoughtful.
Secondly, the logistics of setting up the campaign (i.e. dealing with the property manager, repairs, solicitor, photography etc.) were coordinated seamlessly by Nic and his team, and was a hassle-free process for me.
Thirdly, his communication was always timely, clear and pertinent - both prior to and during the campaign.
Lastly, the execution of the sale strategy was first class, and resulted in a sale of the property within a week of the first open home, at a price that I was very happy with.
Nic is a professional & intelligent agent that I would recommend to anyone seeking a sale of property in the Canberra region.
JORDEN - BRADDON
(Sold with Nic)
Nic impressed us from the very start, he is friendly and extremely patient, often taking the time to advise my husband and myself separately as to every twist and turn of our property sale. Nic put his heart and soul into the campaign, and it showed. Nic’s access to advertising and media options meant that we found the right buyer and he secured a sale price that we are delighted with. Nic and his team worked extremely hard and in our opinion are worth every cent of their commission. We are very grateful.
KATE & ANTHONY - WEE JASPER
(Sold with Nic)
Dear Nic, Thank you so much for all that you did for me to get the best ever sale price for my property. I am so pleased with the result. Having you there prior to selling my house, offering guidance to ready my house for sale proved a great advantage, and provided a seamless transition into the selling process. Your knowledge of the local market and your advice on the timing of the sale and marketing were invaluable. Working with you and your team was always very professional and enjoyable. Thank you for everything.
PAM - DICKSON
(Sold with Nic)
Nic and his team were fabulous, They ensured that I was kept up to date with the sale process, provided assistance whenever I asked and had a very sound knowledge of the ACT market.
DENISE - BRADDON
(Sold with Nic)
When Nic was first engaged as the agent to sell my property, we were both unsure about the response from prospective buyers. The property is an older style “weekender” 90 minutes drive from Canberra, so the level of interest was hard to gauge. Nic was up-front and honest about this, and didn’t create any unrealistic expectations. Nevertheless, he was happy to take on the challenge, drive out to the property and arrange photos and an excellent video (including drone footage!).
The resulting online and print media advertisements were spectacular and immediately generated lots of buyer interest. In fact, several buyers were competing with each other and making offers well above the original advertised price. Nic handled this rush of interest with great skill and diplomacy, while always ensuring that the main goal was to achieve the maximum sale price. When the right buyer was found, Nic was firm and decisive, and worked hard to ensure a very quick deposit payment and exchange of contracts.
Despite family commitments, Nic was happy to work late into the evening to accommodate the buyer’s needs, and thus achieved a fantastic result for all parties. Following the sale, Nic facilitated a meeting between myself and the buyer at the property to ensure a smooth handover. Nic was again happy to make the 90 minute drive, this time on a Sunday morning. This exemplifies Nic’s commitment to his clients, both buyers and sellers. Thanks again Nic.
AMANDA - WEE JASPER
(Sold with Nic)
Nic helped us sell our place in just under two weeks. Great guy, great agent. Highly recommended.
KATE & RHYS - BRADDON
(Sold with Nic)
Nic replies promptly to enquiries, is easy to talk to and is very helpful in providing contacts for facilitating a sale. He worked hard and used his extensive contacts to get the best price for my property, and I was pleasantly surprised by the final sale figure. He managed the sale of my home with integrity and professionalism, and I appreciated his expertise and advice. I felt that Nic went 'the extra mile' in working to sell my property and I am very happy with the service and dedication shown by Nic.
RHYLL - CANBERRA CITY
(Sold multiple properties with Nic)
Most homeowners would agree that selling the family home is more than just exchanging the deeds for money. Nic comes equipped with a variety of skills, including a love for his job, a courteous and polite manner, punctual and productive behaviour, and a willingness to listen. Despite my collection of bizarre ideas, he always contributed in a positive way.
GARRY - WATSON
(Sold with Nic)
I would like to thank Nic Salter-Harding for helping us sell our apartment. Nic made it very easy and enjoyable. He was very nice, very well informed, and helped us understand the whole process, with us being newbies to the whole investment property situation. He is genuine, pleasant and very helpful. I am positive that once we are ready to invest again Nic will be the first agent I will approach for advice. Thanks Nic for all your
help, and thanks LJ Hooker.
ANDREIA & FLORIN - KAMBAH
(Sold with Nic)
Working with Nic was a pleasure. As well as being effective and knowledgeable, he did not use pressure sales tactics or come across as anything but calm and dedicated to our sale. He took more than enough time to reassure us, as we have never sold a house previously.
STEPHEN & ANN - PALMERSTON
(Sold with Nic)
Nic is an excellent communicator. He linked me in with appropriate tradespeople to fix up the house prior to sale, chased them up on my behalf when needed and kept me up to date with progress on all fronts. He recognised that selling a house is a stressful situation, and he worked to minimise the impact of that on me. I felt completely comfortable trusting him and his assistant to have access to my house in my absence. Nic also wrote a description of my house that was clear and grammatically correct - not a skill all Real Estate agents possess. Nic and his assistant both worked hard to achieve a good result for me, and I have no hesitation in recommending them to anyone else wanting to sell their house.
ELIZABETH - CAMPBELL
(Sold with Nic)
Nic is a great agent, very professional and personable. We couldn't be happier with the results.
SHARON & MATT - TURNER
(Sold with Nic)
Excellent communicator and is definitely a leader in his field. We selected Nic as we felt he was serious about his endeavour in Real Estate and dedicated 6 if not 7 days to achieving his goals. We have been proven correct in our choice and will very likely have no hesitation in recommending him to represent in the sale of anyone's property. Nic was able to manage expectations from prospects and arrange additional showings which led to a good result when it came to auction day. Thanks kindly.
SCOTT & LAUREN - FLYNN
(Sold multiple properties with Nic)
Nic was easy to work with and handled our sale without fuss. His estimate on sale price was right on the money and we had secured the sale of our property in the first week.
CHRIS - BRADDON
(Sold with Nic)
I have long been impressed by Nic Salter-Harding's professionalism and friendly, caring nature as a real estate agent, and in selling my own home he exceeded my expectations. I am confident that he achieved the best result possible for my place in the current market. Nic is lovely, and makes the whole process of selling a home easy, even enjoyable, which is something that I didn't really expect. I loved the video he did; way more fun than your average listing. I also really appreciated the extensive communication Nic engaged in with interested parties. I'm sure that everyone who came through the property would have found him personable, genuine and knowledgeable.
ANNIKA - SWINGER HILL
(Sold with Nic)
Nic was highly professional and provided strategic options with regards to marketing my property. I found the video to be well done and it provided a great insight to potential buyers.
PETE - CANBERRA CITY
(Sold with Nic)
Nic was easy to deal with, knowledgeable and responsive. I highly recommend his services to anyone looking to sell their property.
ROB - SWINGER HILL
(Sold with Nic)
Nic was a breath of fresh air as a real estate agent. He had great ideas on how to market my property and was excellent at communicating with me about matters I needed to be kept up to date with. He always acted very professionally.
MARY - BARTON
(Sold with Nic)
Nic is fantastic. Our house was unique, and Nic worked very hard to attract buyers from a narrow market segment. We had 4 active bidders at auction and Nic engaged effectively with the bidders to get us a great price. Nic works harder for the seller than other agents in the area.
WARWICK & JEAN - WATSON
(Bought & Sold with Nic)
Nic was always approachable & went out of his way to be helpful whenever he could. It was so refreshing to have an agent who was down to earth & not in the slightest bit pushy. Nic is a great agent!
CLAUDIA - O'CONNOR
(Bought with Nic)
There may be other places to relate this, but I'll tell the whole story here. I had initially worked and signed with a different agent at LJ Hooker. The morning that I was moving out (and heading back to the US two days later), Nic showed up to tell me that my previous agent had left the company and that he was taking over. Needless to say, I was mortified. This is not the sort of surprise one wants at the very last minute.
My concern was entirely unnecessary. Nic handled everything (including my obvious dismay) with calm professionalism. He talked with me and the builders (who were on site) to learn as much as he could about the house and the ongoing reno. He walked me through the marketing plan and kept in close contact with updates at every stage.
In retrospect, the departure of the previous agent was an obvious blessing, and Nic has more than earned his commission. It was a pleasure to work with him.
THOMAS - HACKETT
(Sold with Nic)
When it came time to place our beautiful family home of 15 years on the market, how do you choose an Agent you can trust? We felt completely overwhelmed by this thought, but from the minute we first met Nic our family warmed to his genuine and down-to-earth nature. He was so attentive to our thoughts and wishes of how we wanted to conduct our sale campaign, and he gave us constructive and useful ideas that were extremely helpful. This enabled us to make well thought out & informed decisions.
He guided the sale campaign with so much enthusiasm and always reported feedback regularly. Our property was geographically out of Nic's way from most of the homes he had listed but it made no difference to him. He was always there when he needed to be, nothing was ever a bother to him. The more we got to know Nic, the more comfortable we felt about trusting he would get the best result possible for us.
Following a fantastic advertising campaign, our home sold at auction and we are so happy with the result! The whole experience was much less stressful that we had anticipated it was going to be, all thanks to Nic.

Throughout my dealings with Nic, I have found him to be extremely professional and easy to deal with, as well as having a high degree of market knowledge. I was particularly impressed with his level of diligence and found him to be very easy to communicate with concerning my particular needs. I very much look forward to future dealings together and will continue to refer family and friends alike to him.

Someone you can trust. A great pleasure dealing with Nic. He was efficient and friendly and a great facilitator for this life changing transaction. Thanks so much to him and the team at LJ Hooker Dickson.

Placing trust in an agent to sell a property is a leap of faith, especially when one is interstate. Nic proved himself to be highly competent, ethical and helpful throughout the entire sale process. The results far exceeded expectations in the prevailing market. I consider Nic to be a great choice.
TONY - DICKSON
(Sold with Nic)
We found Nic to be an excellent agent for the sale of our house in O'Connor. Right from the start, Nic was very pro-active in maintaining contact, keeping us up-to-date with current market trends, and providing us with valuable information in relation to planning for the sale of our house.
When the time came to put the house on the market, we were aiming for an ambitious and short campaign to sell just before Xmas, and living interstate at the time, Nic was absolutely invaluable in helping us get there; from organising gardeners and other tradespeople to put the finishing touches to the house, through to pulling strings with photographers and the online and paper advertising outlets. Nic put in a huge effort throughout the campaign to show the house to as many people as possible (including many after hours showings to single/small groups of potential buyers) which helped to achieve a very high number of visits, and consequently, a very high number of requests for the contract/inspection report.
When the day of the auction arrived, Nic had everything perfectly arranged, and we achieved 10 registered bidders. Although the auction itself didn't go to plan, Nic was very pro-active in getting the house relisted and shown to additional people, which resulted in a sale less than one week later, and for the price that we had hoped for right from the start! Overall, a great effort and a great result achieved by Nic. We would highly recommend him to anyone.

Nic is a good communicator, flexible and knowledgeable. He used to take initiative to regularly update us about the selling process and new developments. Nic was always accessible, approachable and easy to work with.

(Bought & Sold multiple properties with Nic)
I think it does pay to get someone as experienced and capable this agent involved in your sale. Nic conducted himself with absolute professionalism, was a clear and honest communicator and achieved a very good result with minimal stress to me. So yes, a happy customer. Thanks Nic.
RITA - QUEANBEYAN

Couldn't recommend a better agent! Nic was easy to contact and he always made sure we knew where everything was upto and what needed to be done. Very professional and friendly.
LAURENT - PALMERSTON

Nic worked hard to get us the best result possible. He was always accessible. He followed up on potential buyers and negotiated and did all the hard work for us with the buyer. Thank you for your help.
JOSIE & FRANK - BONNER
(Sold with Nic)
Nic repeatedly proved his professional acumen and thoughtfulness. At every turn he was considerate of my wishes, situation and circumstances. He tailored his efforts to my needs while also carefully inducting me into the realities of the fast-changing property market in Canberra. Nic was literally tireless in his efforts to get the largest number of people to see the property and to nurture and enhance their appreciation of it. This had an excellent material impact on the final sale. I strongly recommend Nic for the work he does and his obvious ability.
GEREMIE - O'CONNOR
(Sold with Nic)
Set a challenge ... And so we did. We brought Nic into a market that he didn't usually play in and asked him to sell our house. In a slowing market and with less people coming through than his usual locations, any other agent might have gone through the motions and let things happen. Instead Nic checked with other agents about their experiences and the market he was presenting in. All credit to Nic, we sold and set a new record in Wanniassa of selling a house in a two week campaign.
WENDY & TIM - WANNIASSA
(Sold with Nic)
Great communication and kept me informed of the process throughout the selling experience. Excellent knowledge of the local market. Professional in every aspect.
HEATH - BONNER

Buying or selling then Nic's the one! Very good communication skills, knows his properties and areas well!
JACQUI - WANNIASSA
(Bought with Nic)
Nic was always very approachable and listened to us. He offered comments and suggestions where appropriate but did not try to force his ideas on us. Despite the downward trend in the market he managed to get us a reasonable result. We are very satisfied.
RICHARD & IRMA - LYNEHAM
(Sold with Nic)
Nic was extremely helpful throughout our sales process... After a long process of searching, a few near misses, Nic and the LJ Hooker team eventually helped us find our new home in an area we really loved.
COLIN & CLAIRE - DICKSON
(Bought with Nic)
Choosing Nic & Stephen to sell our home was always easy, they know the market, work hard on all leads and work closely with you throughout the entire campaign. We would strongly recommend them to anyone looking to sell.
ADAM & CLARE - WATSON
(Sold with Nic)
I was very pleased with the manner Nic Salter-Harding conducted and managed the sale of my property. His thorough and professional approach resulted with a sale being achieved well in excess of my expectations, whilst being within his projected outcomes, demonstrating his knowledge and understanding of the market place he is servicing.
GRANT - DICKSON
(Sold with Nic)
Nic, Thank you so very much for your quiet, respectful approach to the marketing and sale of our property at auction. We were quite nervous about going to auction and the circumstances surrounding the sale of our house were delicate. You negotiated with us and with prospective buyers so well, never pushy or brash, just organised and matter of fact. Just what we needed- with an exceptional sale price as well! Many, many thanks to you, we may meet again in the future!
JAEL & BEN - DICKSON
(Sold with Nic)
Nic, thanks again for your assistance through what can be a very stressful time when buying a house. We really appreciated that you consistently went out of your way to listen to, and understand our needs (and dreams) and this has continued after our purchase. We would happily recommend you and the team at LJ Hooker Dickson to anyone buying or selling Real Estate.
JAMIE & PIP - AINSLIE
(Bought & Sold with Nic)
Nic was helpful from the start enabling a viewing at a time to suit us, not rushing us and open to questions at all stages. A second viewing was arranged in haste to take our adult children through, and the negotiation process was as stress free as possible. A good experience after dealing with some less than friendly real estate agents during our long search for our new home.
CAROL & AL - MONASH
(Bought with Nic)
Nic and Stephen have been absolutely wonderful. They have handled the sale of our house with care, are dedicated professionals and achieved the price we wanted. Couldn't recommend them more highly!
FRANCESCA & GREG - MONASH
(Sold with Nic)
Nic was amazing, he really went above and beyond not only by helping me get the best price possible but also in assisting in areas outside his role (tenants etc) - I'd highly recommend Nic and will use him again in any future sales.
JESSICA - DICKSON
(Sold with Nic)
We highly recommend Nic, Stephen and the LJ Hooker Dickson team. We had the opportunity to meet both Nic and Stephen when looking to purchase a property in the Inner North, Canberra. Both Nic and Stephen are passionate and enthusiastic agents, with their vendor’s interest in mind. However, both were able to maintain a healthy balance and liaise with us as potential purchasers.
When we made our decision to sell a 4 acre land parcel in Murrumbateman, we had no hesitation in nominating this dynamic duo. We anticipated a long and bumpy road, given the location, lack of services etc. However, Nic and Stephen took charge, and we have never looked back. We followed their every recommendation RE: listing, viewing, auction, etc and today we “settled”! A fabulous result for us, and within weeks of listing with LJ Hooker Dickson.
I believe rural NSW was a new region for the boys, and they approached our sale with gusto! At their suggestion, many “open house” days were conducted on our land. We thought a photo would be sufficient, but this was not good enough for Nic and Stephen. They insisted on both personally visiting the block, and meeting potential buyers. Both Nic and Stephen were responsive in all communications, and readily available if we had any queries. Their feedback by phone was always welcome and, when relevant, their written reports extremely comprehensive.
We continued to auction, but our land did not sell, although it came very close. However, with Nic’s guidance and his continued attention to our property, we sold 3 days post auction. With sincerity, we would highly recommend both the Team and Nic Salter-Harding. We are now in the final stages of a purchase through LJ Hooker Dickson and continue to trust our communications with Nic, Stephen and the Team.
JEANINE & IZTOK - MURRUMBATEMAN
(Bought & Sold with Nic)
The LJ Hooker team achieved an outstanding result and should be proud of its cohesion, its individuality and team trust. Nic responded masterfully to an early expression of interest in our home to cement the sale.

I was very happy with my dealings with Nic Salter-Harding in relation to the sale of my house in Ainslie. His commitment, dedication and knowledge in Real Estate matters gave me an assurance that I had the right person on board when having my house on the market. If thinking of selling your house then Nic Salter-Harding would be a great choice as your agent.
GARY - AINSLIE
(Sold with Nic)
We were very happy with our interactions with Nic. We were extremely appreciative of his willingness to show us the house at a time that worked for us, as we were unable to attend the scheduled open house due to work commitments. Nic was very personable and efficient and the sale went through smoothly, as have the following interactions with LJ Hooker Dickson.
