MARTIN was started by Jeremy Martin, in 2001 and he remains the owner and Managing Director. However, Prior to the business being known as MARTIN the business was known as South Sydney Realty, but given the rapid growth into new suburbs the name didn't sum us up at all. So, on the 1st June 2011 South Sydney Realty became MARTIN. Jeremy Martin, Managing Director says “I thought carefully about what I could say that would accurately convey why we feel we are the agency that you should rent or sell your property through. I came to the conclusion that it’s not enough for me to talk about my teams commitment, passion, drive, knowledge of the area, focus on research, price records achieved and overall commitment to be the best agency in Sydney but that it would be best if some of the people that we have dealt with share their genuine experience as to why they believe we are the only choice in Real Estate. We encourage prospective clients to also read under Property management “Why Choose Martin” and under selling “Why Choose Martin?” to further assist in their decision making process. Please be advised that all of these clients that have provided feedback can be contacted via telephone if you wish to get any further information on their Martin experience.
Our experience with Martin right through has been flawless and both my wife and I have been left highly satisfied with our experience in buying our first investment property. We were particularly impressed with the ability to achieve a sale that was both quicker than expected and at a price in excess of our expectations. The communication was fantastic throughout the selling process, The leasing department were similarly helpful through the process of renting, making it a stress-free ordeal for us. We will be keeping Martin in mind for any future property ventures and recommending Martin to anyone else thinking of selling, renting or buying in the area.

I am writing to say thank you to for your hard work and professionalism in assisting us to sell our apartment in Alexandria. The team at MARTIN operates with integrity, they are hard working and very dedicated to the job. It was a pleasure to have the sales agent on our side to sell our apartment. We made the decision to sell our apartment knowing very well of the headaches and stress we were going to endure throughout the process. We cannot explain the satisfaction we had due to the fact that we were dealing with Simon and the team at MARTIN as our agent. They made the whole experience comfortable for us and best of all, you managed to get the best price possible for our apartment and completed the sale within the time frame you gave us. Thank you for a stress free experience and giving us hope that we still can have faith in the real estate industry. Mr & Mrs vilivili (Vendor) Alexandria
I just wanted to say a big thank you to the team at MARTIN for your efforts over the past two months. I was especially impressed with : 1) The speed with which you leased out our property and with what appears to be at this stage, a very good client. 2) The photos and general advertising of the property. 3) The experienced, professional and innovative culture you have created at Martin. I look forward to continuing to work with you in the future. Best regards Mr Harbor (Landlord) - Grandstand Parade, Zetland (16/11/11)
This is to let you know how I appreciated the manner the sale was conducted in regards to the selling of my unit.
I've been in contact and met a couple of agents since I started looking for apartment. Most of them are very sale focused and couldn't care less about how I (as a buyer) feel or what I want and need as a property that I'm going to live in later. With your focus on customer's need I believe you guys will go very far. So thank you. Kind Regards, Jiana (purchaser) – (1/12/11)
Hi Jeremy, The move was a bit chaotic, but it all went well and I'm in London now. Parisa and you managed to turn everything around really quickly, given my looming travel, and Parisa has been incredibly helpful getting the applications through quickly, the furniture price list sent around, cleaners sorted, and juggling the cleaners round my packing! So while it was a chaotic few weeks, it was much easier than it could have been. I'm also really happy with the tenants - I've met with them both since they bought the couch and I honestly feel like my little apartment is in good hands with both Martin and them. Thanks so much to both Parisa and you for your help. Best, Kristy (Landlord) (18/11/11) Hutchinson Walk, Zetland
The entire team at Martin has restored my faith in real estate agents and they had some work to do. Not only did I have an investment property in Waterloo, which I gave them to mange, I also had to move interstate with my wife and two kids which was an extremely stressful time for our family. The Martin team rented out our house in Randwick and the complete process could not have gone smoother. My family and i now live in Melbourne and after selling out investment property in Waterloo, through Martin Sales, for an excellent price they now manage, hassle free, our house in Randwick. Not only would i have no hesitation in recommending Martin Management and Sales I would encourage people who have been frustrated with other agents to give them a go”
Over the past 5 years we have bought, sold & leased through South Sydney Realty. David Bettini's high calibre business acumen combined with the proficiency of his team make MARTIN a credit to the real estate industry.
The team at Martin Management was recommended highly by a friend who doesn’t normally make recommendations. My expectations were high and Parisa, head property manager, exceeded them with her exceptional service. My property is outside Martin’s normal service area plus I live interstate – this was not a problem. Furthermore, Parisa has dealt with all issues before they’ve become problems – be it repairs, maintenance, inspections, valuations etc.Additionally, Parisa made the letting and reletting processes very straight forward without any gaps in tenancy. Through her extensive experience, she also demonstrates a strategic, forward thinking attitude and is fair to both landlord and tenant.
In 2000 I left Australia and left my rental properties in the hands of Parisa. Except for the payment of taxes, Parisa has handled all matters relative to the rental and management of my investment properties in Sydney. As a non-resident owner, I needed to have someone in Sydney whom I could trust implicitly and who would be reliable, ethical, and trustworthy at all times. In the ten years of my absence from Australia, not once did I have a problem with any of my properties. I had no dealings whatsoever with the tenants. During my absence Parisa had complete authority to manage the properties; she only needed approvals of rent increases and expenditures above a certain threshold. Consequently our communication was infrequent and brief. When vacancies occurred at lease termination, Parisa was responsible for recommending upgrading of the property and submitting a budget for approval. Once I approved the expenditure, Parisa handled the project to completion. Having returned to Australia one year ago, Parisa continues to manage the properties in much the same way she did during my absence. I have no involvement in the rental or management of the properties, and I do not meet or deal with tenants. I have no hesitation in recommending Parisa Doaie as an excellent property manager.
I would like to take this occasion to sincerely thank you for your assistance in selling my property. So particularly in such a difficult time, it is not very easy to find such a reliable, dedicated and hard working real estate agent. From the first time I met the team at MARTIN I had a very positive feeling that they would be capable of finding the right buyer for my unit, They kept me informed on every single interested purchaser. They were always available when I needed to talk, they never rushed our conversations and was even available after business hours ready to organise the unit’s inspection and to liaise between myself and the interested parties. I would recommend the team at MARTIN to anyone who is interested in selling a property, and may have already been through some inefficient agents. My experience with MARTIN was outstanding in every way, and they are truly excellent at what he does.
Parisa Doaie from Martin Management has been managing my property for a number of years and it has been a stress free and positive experience. Parisa and the Martin team are efficient, friendly, always willing to help and are proactive, whether it's finding new tenants or conducting repairs. I value the professionalism that the team provide and above all I trust Parisa and her advice. They make my life as a landlord easy and I highly recommend them as a managing agent."
"As a landlord, Parisa has made life very easy for me: the property has been well maintained, tenanted promptly with good tenants and good rent and all communications have been timely and professional. I would definitely recommend Parisa and Martin Management to other landlords." Graham Wallace (Landlord)
To my surprise, my first venture into buying a property could not have run more smoothly or efficiently...and as a result some of my friends are jealous. The team at Martin was incredibly proactive on my behalf from start to finish. They not only kept me updated at all times, but I felt was always upfront and honest with me throughout. The Sales Director David Bettini, truly collaborated with me and worked hard to secure the apartment I wanted, and if it wasn’t for him I doubt it would have happened. David was a real pleasure to deal with, and I wouldn’t think twice about recommending him.
The most important aspect of the service provided by Martin Management is that the team makes an effort to meet you and develop a relationship. I found this very rewarding because we are so comfortable dealing with the Martin team that we don’t hesitate to contact them when we have a question, and they don’t hesitate to contact us if there any questions regarding our rental property. I enjoy this relationship and it provides a very efficient environment that allows matters to be resolved quickly, and it allows us as the owners to highlight our needs which the Martin team always strive to meet. Since our first meeting with our property at Zetland, Parisa and the team now also manage our property at the inner west and my father’s property at Cabarita. Even though Parisa manages our properties that are away from their Zetland base, we have received the same excellent service and dedication.” |
