Abode Advocacy Group - Reviews

We had been house hunting since August last year and we were struggling to find the right fit that was in our budget. After missing out on a dream house late last year, and starting a new job I was at breaking point having to look at countless property’s and do due diligence only to miss out. We had been thinking about a buyers agent for awhile, and was referred to Abode from another BA (who worked in a different area).Matt called us right after we sent off an enquiry on their website and booked us in for an in person catch up early the following week, even coming in bright and early on a Monday morning to meet us prior to our work schedules.We walked out of that meeting and knew straight away Abode was the perfect fit for us.Matt was professional, calm and provided us with great clarity without being pushy.Once signing on we received great communication throughout and felt like they truely wanted to understand what we wanted and it was never an issues or annoyance if something wasn’t the right fit.Once Dion returned from his break, we worked very closely with him attending countless opens, it felt like he truly wanted to get an understanding of what we wanted. It was great to have virtual inspections sent to us when we couldn’t attend, Dion would give us his honest thoughts as to if it was worth pursuing or not and helped give us the guidance we needed. It felt like nothing was ever a hassle for Dion, and we felt like we were catching up with a trusted friend. We are so grateful he found us an off market property to inspect which aligned with many criteria and a great location. He acted very quickly with the turn around time which meant we were able to secure the property at a great price.We are so grateful to Dion and the Abode team for helping us throughout the whole process. I think we will miss seeing Dion on the weekends (especially Jayden!) but so grateful not to be house hunting anymore.If you’re on the fence about engaging with Abode, I couldn’t recommend them enough.

Matt and Tess were incredible to work with. From the first call, Matt understood exactly who I was and what mattered to me. Tess followed that up with thoughtful communication, smart logistics and some brilliant outside‑the‑box thinking, which is how I found the suburb I now call home. Their walkthroughs were thorough, the strategy was smart, and they made buying in Melbourne from afar feel surprisingly manageable. Matt handles auctions competitively, but even better, he negotiated my home pre‑auction. It has exceeded every expectation and ticks every box. A genuinely stress‑free, well‑guided experience. I’d recommend them to anyone who wants clarity, support and the right home without the chaos.

It was great to deal with Matt whilst he was working with his client to purchase their next home. Im sure his clients would have been very greatful to have him looking after them. As the selling agent we were always kept informed throughout the whole process.
