Peter Cordony

Thank you, Mike, and Dea, for looking after us in our search on the beaches for one of our family. It has been a pleasure to have you both working for us, the whole exercise was smooth, painless and informative. You guys know the beaches areas, are up to date with pricing and have a good handle on property values. All the best. Peter and Margot

“Before we engaged Mike and Dea, we'd viewed a property that we loved, but thought we couldn't afford it, so we moved on. When we engaged them, they showed us several properties and provided insightful videos and thoughtful analysis to help guide us through the process.”

David Terry-Lloyd

Buyers agents you can trust Before we engaged Mike and Dea, we'd viewed a property that we loved, but thought we couldn't afford it, so we moved on. When we engaged them, they showed us several properties and provided insightful videos and thoughtful analysis to help guide us through the process. With their finger on the pulse of the market and regular attendance at local auctions, they kept us informed every step of the way. When the property we loved passed in at auction, Mike attended and suggested we take another look. When it came time to make an offer, Mike provided expert guidance, keeping us disciplined and ensuring we made the right choices. His calm, measured approach gave us the confidence to proceed with conviction whilst maintaining our financial boundaries. Beyond their market expertise, Mike and Dea were simply a pleasure to work with. They kept us informed at every step and made the entire experience feel less stressful and more manageable. We're very grateful for their support and would highly recommend Mike and Dea to anyone looking for professional, trustworthy, and genuinely caring buyers agents.

“Amazing buying agent who guides buyers throughout the whole process up till settlement, very professional!”

Tracey O

Amazing buying agent who guides buyers throughout the whole process up till settlement, very professional!

“As buyer’s agents, their guidance, persistence and negotiation expertise helped us secure a property we simply wouldn’t have been able to compete for on our own. Mike was outstanding at crunch time - calm, strategic and incredibly effective in negotiations.”

Jerome Dupuy

We couldn’t recommend Mike, Dea and the team highly enough. As buyer’s agents, their guidance, persistence and negotiation expertise helped us secure a property we simply wouldn’t have been able to compete for on our own. Mike was outstanding at crunch time - calm, strategic and incredibly effective in negotiations. Beyond the result, they were also genuinely lovely, personable people to deal with throughout the process, and we’re incredibly grateful to have had them in our corner.

“When it came to the auction, Mike was cool as a cucumber. He handled the bidding and subsequent negotiations with expert precision, he knew exactly when he had the upper hand. We couldn't be happier with the result.”

Ben Eden

We had been searching for a home in Forestville for over a year with no luck. Balancing property inspections with two small children was nearly impossible. Unlike other agents we spoke to, Mike didn't give us a questionnaire to build the brief, we started with a conversation and some houses that we liked. From there he attended numerous opens on our behalf, sending detailed video walkthroughs with honest pros and cons. He also joined me at some inspections to discuss renovation potential, which was incredibly helpful to know what would work for the family and avoid us living in a construction site. He refined our "brief" through our discussions and honest feedback. He teased out elements that we didn't even know we were looking for. When it came to the auction, Mike was cool as a cucumber. He handled the bidding and subsequent negotiations with expert precision, he knew exactly when he had the upper hand. We couldn't be happier with the result. If you need someone to take the stress out of the search, I cannot recommend Mike highly enough.

“Mike was fantastic and helped us take the stress out of our purchase. He found us a house at a great price and saved us what would have been probably many months of house hunting!”

Eoin O’Brien

Mike was fantastic and helped us take the stress out of our purchase. He found us a house at a great price and saved us what would have been probably many months of house hunting!

“As a husband-and-wife team of buyers' agents, they brought not only professionalism and deep market knowledge but also a genuine care and dedication that made the entire experience feel personal and tailored to us.”

Alexander Elizabeth

“From the outset, they struck the perfect balance between professionalism and genuine connection, truly understanding and prioritising our needs. Mike’s keen eye for detail and swift coordination with plumbers, electricians, and other specialists was game-changing.”

Ximena Cajas

We recently had the absolute pleasure of working with Dea and Mike during our home purchase, and we cannot recommend them highly enough. Navigating the Sydney property market is no small feat - especially under the unique circumstances we faced - but their support was nothing short of exceptional. From the outset, they struck the perfect balance between professionalism and genuine connection, truly understanding and prioritising our needs. Mike’s keen eye for detail and swift coordination with plumbers, electricians, and other specialists was game-changing. His efficiency in handling time-sensitive assessments made it possible for us to secure our new home with confidence. We feel incredibly fortunate to have had their guidance throughout this journey. If you’re looking to buy a home, here’s our unsolicited advice: don’t waste your time - get Dea and Mike on your team ASAP!

“What truly sets Dea and Mike apart is that their service never felt transactional. It was a genuine partnership built on trust and their sincere desire to find the best outcome for our family.”

Sophie & Stefan Avgoustakis

Dea and Mike are a powerhouse team, and we feel incredibly fortunate to have had them guide us through our property search. From our very first meeting, they took the time to truly understand our needs, introducing us to areas and homes that were perfectly aligned with our goals. In a highly competitive market, their deep industry knowledge and strong relationships gave us a distinct advantage, providing us with early access to properties and invaluable insights. Their communication was exceptional (always available and always providing guidance), and it was clear they are highly respected by their peers; during an off-market inspection, one agent even noted that Mike is "one of the most hands-on buyers agents" she's ever worked with. When it came to securing our dream home, Mike's negotiation skills were nothing short of brilliant. He navigated the entire process with a calm and strategic approach that kept our nerves at ease. We knew we were in the best hands. What truly sets Dea and Mike apart is that their service never felt transactional. It was a genuine partnership built on trust and their sincere desire to find the best outcome for our family. We cannot recommend them highly enough! Thank you so much Dea and Mike !

“Mike and Dea are knowledgeable, professional, personable, and honest; everything you need when finding the right property. We had absolute confidence in the Manassen and Co process within minutes of our initial meeting with Mike.”

Rosie Maher

Mike and Dea are knowledgeable, professional, personable, and honest; everything you need when finding the right property. We had absolute confidence in the Manassen and Co process within minutes of our initial meeting with Mike. We greatly appreciated their in-depth knowledge of the current market and of the house finding, negotiation and buying process. Being able to attend house inspections with Mike and Dea reduced ‘house hunting fatigue’ and the opportunity to discuss the pros and cons of each property afterwards was invaluable. They took our budget, family requirements and preferences into consideration when identifying properties, providing a different and invaluable perspective. Their knowledge, professionalism and communication meant we secured our dream home within a week. Cannot recommend Manassen and Co highly enough.

“Despite giving them a really difficult brief, they remained proactive and supportive throughout the entire process. Their dedication and expertise made a huge difference, and we couldn’t be happier with the outcome.”

Sarah Casha

We had an incredible experience working with Dea and Mike as our buyer’s agents. From the start, they were approachable, always ready to chat, and truly had our best interests at heart. Despite giving them a really difficult brief, they remained proactive and supportive throughout the entire process. Their dedication and expertise made a huge difference, and we couldn’t be happier with the outcome. We highly recommend them to anyone looking for a buyers agent who genuinely cares!

“Finding a home in the Northern Beaches can be overwhelming, but working with Dea and Mike made the entire process seamless - and even enjoyable! They each have their own area of expertise that complements the other perfectly.”

Yeji An

Finding a home in the Northern Beaches can be overwhelming, but working with Dea and Mike made the entire process seamless - and even enjoyable! They each have their own area of expertise that complements the other perfectly. Mike is the one out on the ground inspecting properties, taking detailed photos, and making sure nothing is overlooked. Dea dives deep into research, understanding exactly what her clients want, and matching them with homes that tick every box. This teamwork means you get the best of both worlds: meticulous attention to detail and a laser focus on finding your perfect home. Within just one week, they found us a property at an incredible price that was exactly what we were looking for. If you’re looking for a home in the Northern Beaches, stop searching endlessly on your own contact Dea and Mike. Their professionalism, dedication, and genuine care for their clients are unmatched. Truly the dream team of real estate!

“What truly stood out was their reputation and rapport with each real estate agent. It is no exaggeration to say that their relationships opened doors we wouldn’t have had access to on our own.”

Lucy P

We had been searching for our forever home for what felt like forever - weekend after weekend of inspections, endless online listings, and countless moments of disappointment. We kept missing out, feeling disheartened and overwhelmed by the process. Price guides felt impossible to interpret, negotiations were intimidating, and we started to question whether we’d ever find “the one.” My husband was initially unsure about using a buyer’s agent as he believed we could do it all ourselves! In hindsight, bringing Manessan and Co on board was truly the turning point in our journey. From our very first meeting with Mike and Dea, we felt a sense of excitement we hadn’t experienced before. We knew we had made the right choice. They are such warm, genuine, and deeply knowledgeable people. It was immediately clear that they not only knew the market inside and out, but that they cared about us, our hopes, and about finding the right home specifically for our family. Mike and Dea worked so seamlessly as a team, each bringing their own unique strengths. Mike’s calm confidence and strategic thinking paired perfectly with Dea’s incredible attention to detail and strong personal skills. They kept us informed every step of the way, flagging off-market and pre-market opportunities before we even knew they existed. Their insight gave us confidence, and their unbiased honesty helped guide us to make well informed decisions. What truly stood out was their reputation and rapport with each real estate agent. It is no exaggeration to say that their relationships opened doors we wouldn’t have had access to on our own. In the end, we found our dream home and everything fell perfectly into place. Watching Mike in action during the final stages of negotiation was incredible and we honestly couldn’t believe the result. We are so incredibly grateful to Mike and Dea. They weren’t just our buyer’s agents - they were our champions, our calm in the storm, and our trusted advisors through one of the most emotional and important experiences of our lives. If you’re on the fence about whether to engage a buyer’s agent, let this be your sign. If we’re lucky enough to buy another home, I know we will be calling them straight away!

“Mike’s deep understanding of the process and expertise in home construction were key factors in helping us evaluate the true value of the properties we viewed. Combined with Dea's incredible flair for design, grasp of flow, and understanding of family dynamics, they make a truly formidable team.”

Jonathan Dearing

We couldn't be happier with our experience working with Mike and Dea from Manassen & Co. Their guidance and advice about the Northern Beaches property market made all the difference in our search for a new home. Mike’s deep understanding of the process and expertise in home construction were key factors in helping us evaluate the true value of the properties we viewed. Combined with Dea's incredible flair for design, grasp of flow, and understanding of family dynamics, they make a truly formidable team. After six months of searching and missing out on a number of opportunities without a buyers agent, Mike and Dea helped us secure our dream home with effortless charm and professionalism. Their dedication, knowledge, and genuine care throughout the entire process was outstanding. We genuinely miss working with them but are beyond thrilled that our search is over. If you're looking for experts who will go above and beyond, we highly recommend Manassen & Co. Thank you both for making our dream a reality!

“Both of you have been so friendly, supportive, and realistic in guiding us toward the right fit for our family. Our top priority was finding the right school catchment for our kids, and you made sure that was considered in every single inspection.”

Ziba Harding

It has been an absolute pleasure working with Dea and Mike in pursuing our dream of purchasing our new home! Both of you have been so friendly, supportive, and realistic in guiding us toward the right fit for our family. Our top priority was finding the right school catchment for our kids, and you made sure that was considered in every single inspection. Your negotiation skills are truly outstanding - you know exactly what is right and when the right time is. THANK YOU, TEAM 🙂 John and Ziba

“They were incredibly patient, held us back from getting over our skis and pushed us on good value where they saw it - the perfect balance in Sydney’s crazy property market.”

Neeru Agarwal

Mike and Dea did an absolutely mammoth effort in finding our perfect family home! They saved us from going to all home inspections with a toddler and newborn in tow, and were very helpful in negotiating with the vendors. They were incredibly patient, held us back from getting over our skis and pushed us on good value where they saw it - the perfect balance in Sydney’s crazy property market. The brilliant duo really pushed hard for us to see our eventual home early and before the next open, and we locked down a deal on the same day! Entrust in Mike and Dea’s judgement - they know this business like no other!

“Our budget was tight for the area, but Mike was honest, realistic, and gave us the clarity we needed about what was achievable. He truly does all the hard work for you.”

Lee Maskrey

After months of searching for a family home, only to be left feeling very frustrated and disappointed, we were fortunate enough to meet Mike. From our very first meeting, he took the time to understand our budget, where we wanted to buy, and the type of home we were hoping for. Our budget was tight for the area, but Mike was honest, realistic, and gave us the clarity we needed about what was achievable. He truly does all the hard work for you. In just three weeks, he managed to find what we thought was impossible - the perfect home for our family. Mike guided us through every step of the process, making it stress-free and straightforward. His professionalism, clear communication, and genuine care for finding the right fit were not only invaluable but also incredibly refreshing. We are now moving into a home that is absolutely perfect for us, and we can’t thank Mike enough for his dedication and support. If you’re looking for a buyer’s agent who will go above and beyond, Mike is the one (& Dea)!

“We now have a place to live because of their ability to match homes with people, in-depth knowledge of the area and strong relationships with the agents. Our place was purchased off-market through a calm and respectful process.”

Alexandra Gregg

Thanks to Mike and Dea, we have just secured the perfect home for our family. A real dream come true! The Sydney housing market is unlike any other, and trying to buy a home in it is stressful, bewildering and infuriating. So after months on the emotional rollercoaster, we decided to use a buyer's agent. We went with the Manassens because of their small client base, easy costing structure and they were by and far the most recommended. They also didn’t blink an eye at our rather unique brief. We now have a place to live because of their ability to match homes with people, in-depth knowledge of the area and strong relationships with the agents. Our place was purchased off-market through a calm and respectful process - very un-Sydney! Mike is analytical and knows the housing market like the back of his hand. Dea is personable with an incredible attention to detail. The perfect team to have on your side. Thank you Mike and Dea!

“When the right property came along, they wasted no time - immediately analysing it in detail, engaging with the selling agent, and negotiating confidently. Even within a tight budget, they secured it for less than we had expected.”

Chulseong Jung

One house. One inspection. One week and sold! We were initially skeptical about using a buyer’s agent, but Mike & Dea quickly earned our trust with their clear communication, deep market knowledge, and genuine approach. When the right property came along, they wasted no time - immediately analysing it in detail, engaging with the selling agent, and negotiating confidently. Even within a tight budget, they secured it for less than we had expected. They were highly professional and proactive throughout - providing detailed video analyses, joining us at inspections, and connecting us with the right experts for instant advice and feedback, which made us feel completely comfortable. We bought our home within a week of signing. It’s a shame Google only lets us give 5 stars - we’d give them 10 out of 5 if we could! Ian

“Throughout the process Mike and Dea were extremely responsive and highly professional. They got the job done at every step, often with tight time frames.”

Michael

Highly recommend and would use their services again. Throughout the process Mike and Dea were extremely responsive and highly professional. They got the job done at every step, often with tight time frames. They took the time to address each and every concern we had and ultimately their efforts were a crucial piece that got us over the line. Thank you Mike and Dea!

“There is not a chance that my wife and I would be moving our family into our dream home without Dea and Mike. Their conversations and questioning drew out what our real requirements were.”

Mitch Barnes

There is not a chance that my wife and I would be moving our family into our dream home without Dea and Mike. Their conversations and questioning drew out what our real requirements were. Their locale knowledge opened our search area into suburbs we wouldn’t have previously considered. And finally, their negotiation skills secured our new home at a price we were happy with. Cannot recommend them both any higher. Thanks guys. Mitch

“Their speed and professionalism secured us the house of our dreams at a great price. If you’re unsure about the value that a buyers agent can add to your home buying process, please take this as a sign to go for it!”

Anna Gooden

I cannot speak more highly of Mike and Dea’s service. Their speed and professionalism secured us the house of our dreams at a great price. If you’re unsure about the value that a buyers agent can add to your home buying process, please take this as a sign to go for it! Honestly the amount of time and money saved has been mind blowing. If I could give them 10 stars I would

Lara Fez

I am so pleased with the unique service this company provides!! Dea and the team were amazing throughout the entire process and we could not have bought what we did without them.

“They were tirelessly present for all the obstacles and hiccups I had to go through and led this journey for me with care and empathy.”

Jovana Djunisijevic

Extremely happy with my experience! Dea and the team went above and beyond for me during my search all the way until the final day! They were tirelessly present for all the obstacles and hiccups I had to go through and led this journey for me with care and empathy. Ultimately I wouldn’t have been able to achieve the result I did without them and am very pleased to have had the chance to work with them! I am very grateful for their patience and advice they gifted, things would have been a lot more stressful if they hadn’t been around! Huge recommendations! They really know their work! Thank you team!

“We signed up with Mike and Dea on Monday and one week to the day we signed a contract for our new home! Mike negotiated a price that was less than our best and top number, got us a house we only dreamed of and was extremely professional in the process.”

Kari Sobbel

My husband and I take great joy in writing this review for Mike and Dea. What an amazing team! We came to them to help us negotiate house contracts as this seemed to be the area that we were the weakest. We could find the house just not seem to close the deal…..5 times we missed out! I kept seeing Mike at auctions and he was getting the houses we wanted! We signed up with Mike and Dea on Monday and one week to the day we signed a contract for our new home! Mike negotiated a price that was less than our best and top number, got us a house we only dreamed of and was extremely professional in the process. Due to his professional connections and constant communication with real estate agents, Mike knew what houses were ready to start negotiations which made this process painless under his guidance. It was all so easy! What are we doing on Saturdays now, packing to move into our dream home. Thank you so much Mike and Dea for helping us get a house for our family.

“From the get go they listened to exactly what we wanted and found us properties that we loved. They made the process easy and fun - and we felt like we were looking at properties with (very knowledgeable) friends.”

Lavvina Thiyagarajan

We have had the best experience with Dea and Mike! From the get go they listened to exactly what we wanted and found us properties that we loved. They made the process easy and fun - and we felt like we were looking at properties with (very knowledgeable) friends which was a delight after the stressful process it had been before. They have helped us buy a wonderful home that we love and are even helping us plan some renovations. Thank you so much Dea and Mike - it has been such a pleasure working with you both.

“They have such a thorough knowledge of the Northern beaches market and were honest and practical in helping us understand what we would be able to get in our budget.”

Sammy Hoult

Mike and Dea were amazing in helping us secure a family home for our growing family. They have such a thorough knowledge of the Northern beaches market and were honest and practical in helping us understand what we would be able to get in our budget. We really appreciated their clear and frequent communication. Every step of the way we were able to contact them and received quick and helpful responses. They did all of the agent communication and negotiation for us, securing us a price we have no doubt we would not have been able to get without them. We couldn’t recommend them more highly.

“From listening to what we were after, to providing lots of helpful suggestions and insights, we felt like we were in safe hands. Mike and Dea gave us back our Saturdays and made the whole process very easy.”

Jesse McNaughton

My wife and I had been struggling to buy a house on the northern beaches for about a year and came across Mike and Dea. They were amazing from the outset. From listening to what we were after, to providing lots of helpful suggestions and insights, we felt like we were in safe hands. Mike and Dea gave us back our Saturdays and made the whole process very easy. We have just exchanged on our dream place and owe it all to them. Mike and Dea handled everything for us leading to a successful purchase. They advocated on our behalf and got the deal over the line where it may not have otherwise been possible. I’d definitely recommend both of them to anyone and you can’t go wrong. Mike and Dea are not only great buyers agents but they are lovely people and extremely honest. Thanks again Mike and Dea!

“Working with Dea and Mike on our house purchase saved us a significant amount of money - and our sanity! They made the process fun, creative, and a lot less stressful.”

R Crossman

Working with Dea and Mike on our house purchase saved us a significant amount of money - and our sanity! It was such a relief to end the stressful Saturday inspections with our baby, toddler and dog in the car, competing for so few properties in a tight and accelerating market. They were absolute professionals who have excellent relationships with all the local agents. They made the process fun, creative, and a lot less stressful, but most importantly - they delivered us an awesome result with an incredibly fast turnaround. Thanks Dea and Mike, it’s been a real pleasure working with such great people.

“Dea and Mike did an incredible job at helping us find and secure our property. They are so well informed and knowledgeable of the market.”

Kathryn Borglund

Dea and Mike did an incredible job at helping us find and secure our property. They are so well informed and knowledgeable of the market. They helped us identify exactly the perfect family home for us in our budget. They were invaluable thru a very stressful search and managed to secure a perfect properly on the same day as settlement of our own. Couldn’t have done it without out them.

“Their extensive knowledge of the local market, strong agent relationships, and access to off-market opportunities is a huge advantage in such a highly competitive market.”

Reuben Crossman

We simply would not have been able to secure the amazing property we have just purchased for our young family without the help of both Mike and Dea. Their extensive knowledge of the local market, strong agent relationships, and access to off-market opportunities is a huge advantage in such a highly competitive market. Plus, they are both really genuine, down-to-earth people who truely care about finding you the right place, while making the entire process as exciting and stress-free as possible. On top of this, we loved the perspective they provide for potential renovation opportunities, things to watch out for that were sometimes not obvious, and most importantly, valuable insight which was critical in allowing us to be strategic with our final offer, ultimately saving us a significant amount of money. Do yourself a huge favour and have a chat with Mike and Dea if you are serious about finding the right place at the right price.

“They left no stone unturned to find us our ideal home and despite our requirements being relatively difficult to match to available houses, they always remained positive with a “can do” and pro-active approach.”

David du Plessis

Dea and Mike are true professionals and we thoroughly enjoyed every single interaction with them. They left no stone unturned to find us our ideal home and despite our requirements being relatively difficult to match to available houses, they always remained positive with a “can do” and pro-active approach. I would highly recommend their services to any property purchaser as it made a huge difference to our search. They are true partners on what can be a difficult journey!

“Dea and Mike were absolutely wonderful at finding homes that met all of our requirements. Dea took the time to thoroughly explain a home’s details before we decided to move forward with it.”

Sima Ryan

Dea and Mike were absolutely wonderful at finding homes that met all of our requirements. Dea took the time to thoroughly explain a home’s details before we decided to move forward with it. She also ensured that we knew of any potential risks associated with purchasing a particular property. Mike´s knowledge of local market trends allowed him to get us a great deal while ensuring that both parties felt like they had a fair outcome from the transaction. They both went above and beyond what was expected to help us find exactly what we needed. They were extremely accommodating regarding scheduling viewings and making themself available on short notice when necessary. I highly recommend them.

“After months and months of searching for a home and missing out on a bunch of properties, we decided to engage Mike and Dea to help us! After only 7 days of working with them, they were able to secure the perfect property for us at auction.”

Jessica Van Amersfort

After months and months of searching for a home and missing out on a bunch of properties, we decided to engage Mike and Dea to help us! After only 7 days of working with them, they were able to secure the perfect property for us at auction. Throughout the process, Mike and Dea were in daily communication with us and were happy to chat on the phone at the drop of a hat. Mike's expertise on all things property and on the Northern Beaches market was second to none. He knew details about every single property we came across and took the time to talk through every one of them. At crunch time, he bidded like a true expert on our behalf at auction, and somehow managed to secure the property for an unbelievable price. We could not be happier or more impressed with the service they provided us. The stress was completely taken out of a very stressful situation and we would definitely recommend them to everyone looking to buy in such a tough market. Thank you so much for finding the perfect home for our little growing family!!

“From our first inquiry call with Dea, to the frenetic contract day exchange, Dea and Mike were calm, supportive, patient, and very professional. They made our home buying experience enjoyable and easy.”

Daryl Missen

From our first inquiry call with Dea, to the frenetic contract day exchange, Dea and Mike were calm, supportive, patient, and very professional. They made our home buying experience enjoyable and easy. Their knowledge of the Northern Beaches property market was comprehensive, and a resource Catherine and I called on many times as we navigated the journey of buying our first home together. Daryl & Catherine

“Mike and Dea bring a personal, caring touch to helping you find your dream home. We had limited time, and they made themselves available for every inspection and gave sage advice.”

John Robinson

It is not often that you feel that a 5-star rating is insufficient. Mike and Dea bring a personal, caring touch to helping you find your dream home. We had limited time, and they made themselves available for every inspection and gave sage advice. But it went beyond that, where they took the time to understand our particular needs and help us translate that into an appreciation of which properties would work and those that would fall short. When we found a couple of places that met our requirements, they helped us refine our vision. Then came the negotiations and there they excelled as well. Getting contracts, deposit and the building report sorted ahead of time, so we could move quickly should we reach agreement with a vendor. And this is exactly what happened. Suddenly we had a verbal agreement with a vendor and knew other parties were interested, so time was of the essence. Their thorough knowledge of the mechanics and intricacies of property conveyancing guided us to a contract exchange within an hour of reaching an agreement on price. Mike and Dea took the stress out of the entire process. I could not speak more highly of them and would not hesitate to recommend them.

“Dea and Mike have been our life savers in finding our home. We certainly wouldn’t have achieved our specific requirements without their constant involvement in such a tough market.”

Kim du Plessis

Dea and Mike have been our life savers in finding our home. We certainly wouldn’t have achieved our specific requirements without their constant involvement in such a tough market. They never rested their laurels and gave us hope and encouragement on days we felt discouraged. They’re a likeable, fun team which made our experience that much better. I would recommend their services to anybody requiring to remove the painful, emotional process of finding a home or to those who are time poor. Thanks so much Dea and Mike, you guys are the best!

“We were so grateful to have Mike and Dea at our side while finding our beautiful home. I am new to Sydney and appreciated the guidance, inside knowledge and personal insight that their team provided.”

Lucy King

We were so grateful to have Mike and Dea at our side while finding our beautiful home. I am new to Sydney and appreciated the guidance, inside knowledge and personal insight that their team provided. Couldn’t be happier with our dream home, and have no doubt we wouldn’t have been able to get it over the line without their expert knowledge, effort and care. Thank you Mike and Dea! For anybody considering them, I have no hesitation in recommending Manassen and Co.

“In a sea full of bravado and puffery, Mike and Dea are two breaths of fresh air in the Property Market and you will be very glad to have them in your corner!”

Isabella Pelosi

If you are looking for a buyers agent in the Northern Beaches or Forrest Area, there are simply no better buyers agents than Mike and Dea. After a gruelling year and a half of trying to buy a home on the Northern Beaches, we were directed to Mike and Dea who immediately impressed us with their experience and personable nature. Over the following 2 months we were delighted by their insights and perpetual availability and thoroughly enjoyed having their support through this whole process. Most of all we benefitted from their experienced strategy which ended up with us purchasing our dream first home on the Northern Beaches - which I can attest we wouldn't have gotten that result on our own. In a sea full of bravado and puffery, Mike and Dea are two breaths of fresh air in the Property Market and you will be very glad to have them in your corner!

“Approachable, answered all our questions and rode the roller coaster of emotions with us. Got the deal done quickly, for a great price and saved us many times during the process by using their network.”

Steve Millar

Mike and Dea made the whole process so easy. We previously missed out on a few places and only needed a couple of weeks to find a place and get it done but it felt like we knew Mike and Dea for so much longer. Approachable, answered all our questions and rode the roller coaster of emotions with us. Got the deal done quickly, for a great price and saved us many times during the process by using their network. Would highly recommend if you want 2 people who have your best interest at heart and want the best possible outcome.

“I felt like our budget was tight and so didn’t think we could really afford it. The reality turned out to be, that we could not afford not to use them!”

Michelle W

Dea and the team were a dream to work with. I was a bit worried about the cost of using a Property Buyer initially. I felt like our budget was tight and so didn’t think we could really afford it. The reality turned out to be, that we could not afford not to use them! They saved us so much money by negotiating well, and helping us move quickly ahead of the competition when they found us a dream family home we had initially disregarded assuming there was no way we could afford it. I honestly am in disbelief at the amazing result we got in the end. Dea and the team did a great job of understanding our brief while also challenging us initially to make sure we were not missing any great opportunities. Thank you, Dea and the team so much for all of your help. I can’t believe you found us our dream family home in just three weeks! ❤️🏡❤️

“Dea and Mike are honest, genuine hard working people. They really went all out to help us find our new home on a very tight time line.”

Vanessa Thompson

Don’t hesitate! Dea and Mike are honest, genuine hard working people. They really went all out to help us find our new home on a very tight time line. They were patient, professional and throughly invested in finding our family the perfect place to live. Mike has an amazing ability of pin pointing exactly what we were searching for in a home. He took time to get to know us and how our family would interact together in a home. He outlined the positive and negative aspects in each home, which was a great help when making these big purchasing decisions. Dea has an exceptional eye for detail and vision for what a house, room or area could be like with some changes. She has all the up to date relevant market research at her finger tips and access to all off market properties which is a hugh bonus. When it came time to get a deal done Mike was on the front foot ready to act and get us the best possible result. Having someone in your corner to help with negotiations was a MAJOR advance. Dea and Mike found us a new family home and helped guide us through all the ups and downs and pitfalls of searching for the perfect home. We truely can’t thank them enough for everything they have done for our family and encourage anyone buying property to talk to Mike and Dea as you definitely wont by regret it!

Working with Mike & Dea to find our new family home was both a pleasure and a huge success. They were professional, friendly and always available to answer any questions we had or simply have a chat about our opinions. It made the whole process stress free and enjoyable.

“On finding us the house we loved and decided we wanted to go for it, Mike continued to keep the ball rolling with the negotiations on our behalf and got us a price we couldn't imagine getting if we were to have those conversations ourselves.”

Ritika Jhaver

Dea & Mike have been absolute legends helping us find our dream home! From day 1 of chatting to them, they picked up the job as they were finding a home for themselves and went with it relentlessly trying to find us the best home keeping in mind our numerous pre requisites. On finding us the house we loved and decided we wanted to go for it, Mike continued to keep the ball rolling with the negotiations on our behalf and got us a price we couldn't imagine getting if we were to have those conversations ourselves. As part of this journey, we have definitely understood how beneficiary it is to get a buyers agent on your side. And Dea + Mike I'd say are one of the best out there, especially if you're looking for one in the North/ Northern Beaches side of Sydney.

“Dea and Mike recently helped me find a new home and were fantastic to deal with through every single step of the buying and negotiating process.”

Carol Grant

Dea and Mike recently helped me find a new home and were fantastic to deal with through every single step of the buying and negotiating process. Dea was able to gain access to off-market properties which I would not have known about without her connections. She is extremely knowledgeable and accompanying me to every inspection, Dea brought a wealth of expertise and experience which helped me enormously through what would otherwise have been a very daunting process. When I found the right property, her negotiation skills were fast and seamless. She is brilliant at what she does; professional, organised, responsive and honest. Deas expertise, guidance and superior negotiation skills saved me a significant amount of money. I trust Dea and Mike implicitly and would not hesitate to recommend their services as buyers agents to any prospective purchasers. Carol Grant Balgowlah
