Mathew Hartley's Testimonials
” Dear Mathew Hartley, Four months have nearly passed since you sold our SPAR Supermarket at Evans Head and it is only now that I have found the time to write to you. It is important to Carol and I that we take the time to extend to you our gratitude for all your professionalism, patients and friendship in dealing with us in the sale of our supermarket. From the initial consultation to the final sale, you conducted yourself as a true professional in your trade. Your understanding and empathy to our sale allowed us to draw strength during what is always a testing time. You were always creative, motivated and persistent when promoting the sale and it was pleasing to see you showed the same respect for your purchaser as you did for your vendor. Wishing you all the very best in the future. ” - Shane and Carol | 13 Dec 2018
