We first engaged Pier about a year ago, when trying to find our first home. Pier made the process really simple for a first home buyer and went over and beyond for us. Pier was honest and professional throughout the process, and we can't recommend him highly enough for anyone buying or selling a property.

In January 2023, we contacted Steve Bristow and Pier Viganoni of Birkenhead Barfoot & Thompson to discuss selling our house. In our first meeting it was agreed that it was much better to seek CCC compliance rather than sell our property on an “as is” basis. They recommended a building consultant and a construction company to complete the required work. We have no doubt that the compliance process was greatly smoothed by their recommendations.

By the time our property was ready to market, Steve had moved on to another branch of Barfoot & Thompson and Pier introduced us to Michelle Yan, his new associate. We were very happy with the promotion of our property. Pier and Michelle provided helpful feedback on our preparation for the open homes, and promptly updated us with information about prospective buyers’ impressions and pricing estimates.

When we reached the negotiating stage we found them patient, and yet enthusiastic about reaching a final compromise which was fair to the market and both parties. In this they were aided by their manager, Peter Taylor.

We have utilised the services of Barfoot & Thompson in the past, and can highly recommend the professionalism of all the staff involved in the sale of our property. Our expectations were high, yet they were met with integrity, quality and friendly service. It seems unlikely that we could have chosen better.

Thanks to everybody, and especially Pier who routinely went the extra mile to help us.

I wish to endorse the services of Pier Viganoni, real estate agent for Barfoot & Thompson, Birkenhead, for his expertise in the recent sale of my property. I would have no hesitation in putting his name forward as a sales representative.

Pier helped to make my sale transaction as stress-free as possible. From the outset he presented as very organised and informed about the market in which I was selling. He guided me through each of the processes - from marketing the property and which sale process to use. I was very impressed with the sale campaign and Pier reported regularly and professionally after each open home.

Although the house received quite a bit of interest, the sale date for my house came and went, without a firm offer having been presented at the time. Pier then advised what steps should be taken next and actively pursued further buyers, also consulting with other real estate colleagues. Again, I would not hesitate to engage the services of Pier Viganoni for any real estate transaction.

Thank you, Pier, for selling our mother/grandmother's estate property. You were very professional, which we appreciated as it was a very emotional time for us. Your up-to-date information each week and advice on the best way forward was excellent.

We were very grateful for the end result in such a short time frame. We highly recommend your sales skills and wish you all the best in the future.

When I first contemplated listing my property with Pier, I was hesitant. Previous salespeople I had spoken with told me I'd have to sell my house at a loss and not to expect much. Thankfully, Pier eased my concerns from our very first meeting.

From having an open, honest conversation about the listing process, developing a marketing plan, dealing with a problematic tenant/property manager, organising a photo shoot and tending to minor maintenance issues on my behalf, Pier made the whole process a breeze. He frequently went the extra mile and was always on hand to answer any questions I had.

I think that's what separates Pier from the previous salespeople I had spoken to — he truly cares about the people he works with and puts them before a 'quick sell' or money. What's more, if he's ever unsure of something he's not afraid to ask for help — and the rest of his team are a pleasure. During the auction process, Pete (Pier's manager) was on hand to reassure me and iron out the inevitable kinks that come with selling a house.

Words cannot describe how grateful I am for all of Pier's hard work. His efforts truly got me out of a tight spot post-COVID-19, and I'll always be thankful for everything he did.

If you're looking to sell your house, take comfort in the knowledge Pier is there to work alongside you. He's a gem of a human being, and you're in capable hands. I would not hesitate to work with him again.

We have just sold our house with Pier Viganoni. He was not only highly professional but also so personable as well. We had quite a unique situation with our sale but he walked us through it step-by-step and made the whole process seem relatively easy and stress- free. We found Pier to be helpful, knowledgeable, encouraging and of course effective. We sold the house quickly and for what we were hoping to get, (thanks to Pier's negotiating skills). We highly recommend him and will use him in the future.

We engaged Pier and Nathan to sell our home in Stanmore Bay. We met with a few salespeople and were impressed with their pressure-free follow-up after the initial meeting.

They got us a great result and we wouldn't hesitate to recommend them both.

After meeting Nathan and Pier at an open home where we fell in love with our dream house, we knew we wanted to use them to sell our home. We appreciated their honest approach, they knew the market well and it felt like we had known them for years. Their communication throughout the buying and selling process was exceptional. I felt like they put us first. We highly recommend Nathan and Pier. The dream team that gets results.

To the Barfoot & Thompson team of Nathan Canton, Pier Viganoni & Pete Taylor, thank you for making the process of selling my home so easy.

These guys were proactive and great at following up. They understood the current market situation well and made solid recommendations. They worked seamlessly as a team to bring all the components of the selling process together and get my house ready to sell.

They kept me well informed every step of the way. The house sold in less than a week for a price I was very happy with. They were very much working with my best interests in mind.

I would highly recommend the Barfoot & Thompson team to help you sell your home.

‘Katharine and I were lucky enough to have Pier acting as our salesperson for our house purchase. Pier worked tirelessly for us to find the right house and get the best possible price. He was available by text or phone whenever we needed and talked us through the purchasing process with astute strategic awareness. Pier went above and beyond for the two of us at every stage of the purchase and we could not recommend him highly enough; any buyer or seller would be lucky to have him as their salesperson.'

We asked Pier to come to our house to discuss selling. He arrived promptly and discussed everything we needed to know. This was on 3rd June. He then came back with a full plan for selling our home including dates of when the photographer would be at the house. We were very happy with the video and photos taken. He kept us fully informed all the way through the sale and arranged all our private viewings. We had numerous Barfoot & Thompson salespeople through our house and Pier kept full records and emailed us most days. Our property was put on the market on 29th June 2021 and Pier had a pre-auction offer for us by 5th July. Our house sold under the hammer on Wednesday 7th July for a very acceptable offer. We have bought and sold all our homes with Barfoot & Thompson and are very happy to recommend Pier as an excellent representative of the company.

Pier was a fantastic salesperson and worked really hard to sell our house and find our dream home.

"As first home buyers, we were very nervous. From the first open home meeting, Pier was professional and made us feel at ease. Our interest and his enthusiasm in the property resulted in a purchase.

During this time he went over and beyond our expectations and always kept us up-to-date with the progress of the sale. He checked with us and the seller before, during and after settlement, to ensure there weren't any issues he could help solve. Thank you Pier! Highly recommended!"

Pier went above and beyond in all regards with his work. He kept us constantly in the loop and we must have logged at least a 100 calls to clearly discuss things along the way. He gave sound advice every step of the way and in doing so, helped us to achieve a higher purchase price because we followed his advice. I'd highly recommend Pier to any prospective seller!

I met Pier at an open home and although the property was not right for me, he endeavoured to help find the right property that suited my needs. Pier worked tirelessly to source listings and was not afraid to work with other agencies to get the best deal done. He showed me around many open homes in search of the ‘right’ property over several months in a challenging market and was not satisfied until a deal was done. Pier is one of the most genuine, honest and caring salespeople that I have come across. He is truly down-to-earth and not afraid to speak the truth about a property. I would highly recommend him to anyone considering their next move.

Pier Viganoni was assigned by Barfoot & Thompson to sell our house by auction. We found him very friendly and approachable. Always punctual and it was been a pleasure to be associated with. He was always cooperative and very professional.

Pier was always keen to point out the positives in the house and see the pluses, for example the view, the bush, privacy etc. His emphasis was not on the “leaky home” stigma as others have done in the past.

He was always immaculately dressed. I have no hesitation in recommending Pier to other clients, as he tells you how he sees it. He is an efficient, honest and reliable person.
