We found working with Ananda from Bayleys absolutely effortless and can’t fault her on anything.  Saying she went over and above for us is an understatement.  She kept as up to date on every development and her time frames were spot on.  We got a better price than what we expected and much better service.  We will without a doubt recommend Ananda to anyone looking to sell their home.
