Editorial context

Working with a provider in Surry Hills – what matters

When choosing a real estate agent in Surry Hills, first confirm that the agency will handle the specific property and assignment. Metro Realty’s documented services include sales, letting and property management, while its stated office location is Sydney’s CBD. Owners of a Surry Hills property should therefore ask about recent experience with comparable properties in the neighbourhood.

For a sale, useful questions include which comparable properties support the appraisal, what marketing activities are proposed, and how inspections and buyer feedback will be recorded. Metro Realty offers sales appraisals, providing a starting point for discussing pricing expectations and the proposed approach. Fees, advertising costs and potential additional charges should be clearly itemised before appointment.

For letting and ongoing management, responsibilities, availability and repair coordination are important selection criteria. Tenant selection, handovers, condition reports and account checking also deserve attention. The supplied review selection includes praise for communication and coordination alongside criticism of documentation and billing. These comments can inform specific questions, but do not establish how every individual assignment is handled.

The scope of services, reporting intervals, spending approvals and termination arrangements should be clarified in writing. Google reviews can provide additional perspectives, but are not a substitute for a direct conversation or a comparison of specific proposals. These points offer general guidance, not legal advice.

I have been renting a property managed by Ms. Lana and Metro Realty for more than a year. The whole rental experience has been absolutely wonderful. Communication has always been easy and pleasant. Lana is incredibly professional, patient and reliable. She always replies to messages and emails in a timely manner, and solves every housing-related problem quickly and perfectly. I really love staying in Melrose Park and feel extremely comfortable living here. I highly recommend this real estate agency without any hesitation. I will definitely choose Metro Realty first for all my future house renting, buying and selling matters, and I will also recommend them to all my friends and family.

Cintia did an outstanding job leading the sale of my apartment. She was efficient, proactive, and highly organised, handling everything from obtaining quotes, coordinating access and interacting with building management and strata. Everything that was required was put in front of me at the right time and nothing was a problem when asked. All of my queries were handled promptly and efficiently via the chat group Metro set up for the sale. What could have been a daunting process felt almost seamless thanks to her initiative and attention to detail. When it came to engaging buyers, the team truly excelled. Cintia’s management of open houses and viewings was exceptional, and she secured a sale with impressive speed. This quick turnaround was undoubtedly driven by thorough preparation and a well-executed campaign that generated strong market interest. I highly recommend Metro Realty and wou

I would like to thank Metro Realty, especially leasing agent Lachlan and property manager Lana, for their efficient work in securing a great tenant for my property and ensuring a smooth and comfortable handover. Thank you for your prompt and dedicated service, as well as your assistance with landlord insurance and all other arrangements. I truly appreciate your positive attitude, quick responses, and the way you look after my property with such care. As a landlord, I couldn’t be happier with the experience. Highly recommend!

Agatha is truly one of the best property managers I’ve ever come across. She is professional, reliable, and always goes above and beyond to make sure everything runs smoothly. Her communication is amazing and she genuinely cares about both owners and tenants. You can tell she takes pride in her work and handles everything with such attention to detail. Highly recommend her and the team!
Michelle Dorn · 5 months ago · Review on Google
This has been one of the worst experiences I’ve ever had with a real estate agency. Metro’s conduct has been misleading and demonstrates a clear lack of honesty and integrity. First of all, outgoing report was clearly done carelessly and does not reflect the true condition of the property. Also tenant asked to move in 10 days earlier however Metro withheld this information and misled tenant and us (tenant confirmed with evidence provided to me). The water rates were also charged incorrectly. Most unacceptable, they terminated the contract unilaterally without proper agreement.

Services in this field explained

Property valuation

A valuation estimates the price a property can achieve on the market, based on location, condition, size, fittings and comparable sales.

What does a valuation cost? Many agents offer an initial estimate free of charge. A formal market value report by a certified surveyor is paid; the fee depends on the property and effort.

Selling property

When you sell, an agent handles valuation, exposé, viewings, negotiation and the notary appointment.

Who pays the agent's commission? When flats and single-family houses are sold to consumers, the commission is generally split between seller and buyer (§ 656c German Civil Code).

Letting

When letting, an agent takes care of listing, viewings, tenant selection and the tenancy agreement.

Who pays the agent when letting? Since 2015 the “orderer pays” principle applies to residential lettings: usually the landlord pays when they hired the agent.
