Testimonials

Hi John, I own Apartment 207 at Enclave. I just wanted to email to say a really big thanks for a couple of things. First, the development. It’s everything I hoped it would be and more. It’s been thoughtfully conceived and there are so many aspects that are beautiful to look at and work at a practical level as well. I personally think it’s a landmark for the Wynnum area. So many people I speak to at Enclave tell me that they still pinch themselves every time they walk through the front door.

I absolutely love what you’ve done. I also wanted to recognize how much DMF have gone above and beyond. In particular, Tony. He has done what I regard as an absolute above and beyond job finding solutions. I was always blown away by the level of customization and personal involvement you had in the project and Tony is no different. Thanks for a beautiful apartment and special place to live. Kind regards

It has been an absolute pleasure dealing with you and the rest of the De Martini Property team over the years.

As I had stated in an earlier email when we gave notice, we are sorry to leave the office. We thank you for being a great landlord to us over the last 21 years.
If we ever need another office in Brisbane in the future we will definitely call on you. All the very best wishes to you and De Martini Property.

OFFICE MANAGER Funding Strategies & BlueMount Capital - Lvl 5/15 Astor Tce

I just wanted to send you a quick email to let you know how much we appreciate Norm and Dennis. Nothing is ever too much trouble for them and yesterday Norm went out of his way to help us get into the MDF box after Telstra accidentally cut off our internet. Telstra didn’t tell us until the last minute that they would need access to the MDF because we had originally been told that the problem was at the exchange. So we weren’t able to give Norm any warning but he still managed to help us. We feel lucky to have them around and just wanted to pass that on to you.

I wanted to drop you a line to share how happy we’ve been with the entire process involved in taking up tenancy at 87 Wickham Terrace, Spring Hill. Right through from John Jnr’s helpfulness and patience in accommodating our numerous requests and queries in the early stages, through to the building and painting team led by Nick and Harry, who were so obliging and always with a smile or useful suggestion, to working with my “new best friend”, Sally, and of course there is the ever vigilant and efficient, Dennis, who’s been a great asset in settling us in.

Our team was also impressed yesterday by the Fire presentation from comedian come safety expert, Charles, as well as by Jim’s cleaning team last night. You have assembled a wonderful group of individuals and our thanks to them all for making our move into our lovely new office, so seamless.
