To: Martin HyreMartin Hyre, originally from the South of England, has had 20 years of experience in the UK property market before deciding to bring his expertise to Dubai. Being one of our most senior and experienced consultants and having seen many changes during his time in real estate, Martin is extremely well placed for the challenges of the Dubai market and in understanding his clients’ needs.
Martin is one of our experts of the Arabian Ranches area and being a family man has firsthand experience of family orientated areas along with the facilities which they provide. This puts him in an excellent position to offer the best advice on where to live or what to buy.
Deciding to sell our property was a big decision, but an even bigger decision was who do we use to sell it and under what terms? We had already spoken to one agent and tentatively agreed we might sell and whilst they brought two people round for a viewing, we did not hear anything from them. Having decided to definitely sell, we coincidentally received a text message from Martin at Allsopp & Allsopp and arranged to meet him to see what he had to say. We were impressed from the start with his experience in the real estate market in the UK, particularly the number of years he had been in the industry. He seemed to understand we did not want loads of people traipsing through our home and assured us he would vet all potential buyers or serious contenders. We were naturally dubious placing it on an exclusive agreement, but decided we would try it for a period and see how it went. True to his word, the initial viewing within the first week, produced an offer, although it was way under value and Martin declined it on our behalf. By the following week, we had received a further offer, much closer to our valuation, but not the price we wanted. Martin negotiated with the buyer and secured an excellent price, which many agents said was over market value for our property. We believed in the value of our home, but more importantly so did Martin and that secured the higher offer and the house was sold within 2 weeks of placing it on the market. I therefore wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him to others looking to sell their property.
Kind regards,
