Ben and Stewart from Raine & Horne Commercial have both been awesome to work with. I purchased this property via Ben. Stewart then managed the property and helped me work through some challenges with the pre-existing tenant. Ben then helped find a new one.

Can highly recommend their services, they've both been consistently supportive, helpful and flexible, working through some challenging circumstances.

I engaged Nicholas Smith and Mathew Budzevski from Raine & Horne Commercial Inner West to manage the lease of my commercial property as they have been managing the leasing of the property for many years past and have always done an excellent job.

Nicholas, Mathew and the R&H team made the task simple by managing the entire process of leasing the property quick and painless. I achieved a realistic lease within 10 weeks of advertising.

Our commercial property had been on the market for almost a year with another agency by the time we reached out to Ben Ayers to sell it for us instead and where the other agency failed to get us a result Ben achieved that for us in months.

Along the way he did so with unmatched professionalism, outstanding service, clear and constant communication, genuine care and a superb knowledge of the market.

He worked hard, pushing for us right up until the exchange of contracts, wanting this for us as much as we did ourselves.

We have zero reservations in recommending Ben.

So strong is our conviction that you should stop reading this testimonial and give him a call to see what he can do for you. You will wonder why you ever went elsewhere, or indeed, be glad you called him first.

We are glad to have had him in our corner.

I want to take a moment to express my sincere appreciation for the outstanding service provided by Ben Ayers. Ben's professionalism and customer focus were truly impressive, as he efficiently secured a quality tenant for our commercial property.

His ability to negotiate a mutually beneficial offer showcased his expertise and dedication to meeting the needs of both parties. Throughout the leasing process, Ben was always readily contactable and maintained a high level of professionalism, ensuring a smooth handover.

Given this positive experience, I am confident that we will be entrusting all our future commercial leasing and sales needs to Ben. His performance has set a high standard, and we look forward to continuing our relationship with him.

I had a fantastic experience working with Nicole Sell during the purchase of 339 Gardeners Road, Rosebery. She was incredibly helpful throughout the entire process, keeping us informed and guiding us every step of the way. She made sure we understood the process and was always available to answer our questions. Nicole was also very informative with regard to potential rental income upside were we to develop the property and outlining the extent of any improvements which would deliver a positive net benefit.

Thanks to Nicole, we found our ideal property which is extremely ideal for our new office premises after looking for two years. I highly recommend Nicole Sell for anyone looking to buy / sell a property. She is a true professional who goes above and beyond to make the experience positive and enjoyable”

Luke and the team at Raine and Horne recently sold my commercial property in Marrickville. They were very communicative and professional throughout the sales process and provided great guidance along the way. Their personal approach, marketing material and fantastic sales video was exceptional and I’ve no doubt this combination was a key to the success of the promotion and the ultimate sales result.

Craig Rowland (Vendor)

After having sobering experiences from other inner west real estate punters, not returning calls and playing tricks, leaving me disheartened, I was totally relieved to come across the lads at Raine & Horne Commercial. Totally impressed with the tight team co-operation between Luke, Sam and Nicholas. Quick to respond to questions or enquiries. Luke even called back at 6pm on an Friday evening after hours to reassure my concerns. In an industry that is plagued by mistrust, these guys are top rate forthright players, highly recommended, well done boys!

I engaged Nicholas Smith from Raine & Horne Commercial Inner West to manage the sale of my commercial property as they have been managing the leasing of the property for many years past and have always done an excellent job. Prior to commencing the sale campaign, I had many discussions with Nicholas over a long period of time to discuss opinions on value, timing and sales strategies whereby Nicholas was always available, patient, forthright and professional in his approach. Being an interstate owner, Nicholas and the R&H team made the task simple by managing the entire process of sale including laying out a clear strategy to achieve the best result on auction day. I’d like to personally thank Nicholas Smith and also Ben Ayers for their outstanding service and professionalism especially for the manner in which they handled a unique property sale that required a high level of competence. The campaign lasted 5 weeks and achieved over 400 enquiries with the property selling at auction for 10% above the reserve price. I wouldn’t hesitate in recommending Nicholas, Ben and the whole team at Raine & Horne Commercial Inner West as a skilled and cohesive team and truly remarkable Agency.

Hi Luke, thank you for always being prompt and helpful in relation to my questions and interest in Chalder Street. It is clear to see why you are a great agent with a highly regarded reputation. Congratulations to your vendor, as well as yourself and the agency on a great outcome also.

Matthew (Purchaser)
31-33 Chalder Street, Marrickville


Dear Luke, now that the sale of my property has settled, I would like to take the opportunity of thanking you for your service. On our first meeting you put me at ease and gained my confidence. I had previously listed the property with two other large commercial agents but did not realise a sale, unfortunately. I appreciated your honesty in your appraisal of the property and expectation of a realistic price. Others as it turns out had overstated the value and so I was disappointed and disillusioned when you came to me. I appreciated your honesty and understanding that it was a very emotional sale for me. I was confident that you would find a buyer, which you did, and I was very happy with the price achieved. I highly recommend you and your highly professional team. You achieved what others promised but were unable to deliver.

I've dealt with Luke on a few occasions now and commend his level of professionalism. An excellent operator, he is very responsive to all requests and knowledgeable in his field.

Luke, Sammy and the team could not have been more helpful. Highly skilled at what they do, they deliver as promised with excellent results and superior customer service. I would highly recommend then and definitely would contract them again to buy or sell commercial property.

Having never sold a property before, I was determined to find the right company to manage the sale of my factory unit. After extensive research and meetings with numerous agents, I met with Luke Smith and immediately felt at ease. Luke was well informed on recent sales in our area and he showed a genuine interest in my needs as a vendor.

The sales and marketing package was very competitive and all our open inspections were held on-time with little to no disruption. Communication from Luke and his team was paramount at all times. The weekly sale update throughout the campaign gave me a clear idea on how our property was being received by the market and highlighted the number of potential buyers.

Luke and his team left no stone unturned leading up to auction night and I was confident that all potential buyers would be attending the auction. I was not disappointed and the sale broke area records.

The entire team at Raine & Horne Commercial South Sydney / Inner West are first class, hands-on and very thorough. I would highly recommend them to anyone thinking of buying or selling any type of property.

Luke Smith and the team at Raine & Horne Commercial sold my mixed-use building in the Inner West at a good margin over reserve, despite the slight softening in the market. I have sold a number of houses over the years and my experience with this sale was the least stressful of them all. Luke was a calming presence throughout, and his skill and experience showed in the strong and cohesive marketing campaign and the way in which I was kept well informed about the number of queries and the feedback from potential purchasers. I am so pleased that I made the decision to sell with Luke and I unreservedly recommend him as an agent who is both experienced and ethical.
