Carin Rolstone

"Dear Carin, Thank you for your wonderful expertise in making the sale of my beloved home of 52 years so easy. Your attention to detail was so reassuring and finding the right buyer was Heaven sent. It is hard to leave a home where you have lived for so long but you made it so easy and your help with things that I could not handle is so appreciated. Sad to say goodbye to my hood but on to new beginnings. Thank you for everything, Gill Edge"

"Dear Carin Thanks again for the always excellent and attentive service. You are our go-to property professional for sure. The testimonial below is only a pleasure: Carin will always assist her seller, no matter the circumstances. She is accessible and patient to answer any questions and concerns. Her friendly demeanour, professionalism and attention to detail always shine through. Carin again secured or house sale at a record price for the street and neighbourhood, in very tough and slow market conditions. She knows the market well, is flexible and nimble in her approach, and will fine-tune her strategy to suit the property and the selling environment. She again made the entire selling process as easy and stress-free as possible, and we have no hesitation recommending her to do the same for you. Best regards Lance and Dave"

"21 September 2020 TESTIMONIAL - CARIN ROLSTONE I consulted widely with estate agents from all of SA's leading brands before deciding to appoint Carin Rolstone to market our home on a sole mandate. The "area specialist" agents I met ranged from overly conservative, clearly pitching a price for a quick sale, to displaying a lack of understanding of our property and its unique features. A number of qualities set Carin apart from all the other estate agents. Carin took an interest in us the sellers first. She made it clear that she was not only selling our home, but that she was representing our best interests. Carin also displayed an immediate understanding of our home, its unique selling points, and which demographic categories to pitch it at. Above all, Carin's commitment to absolute transparency and integrity was very reassuring. Carin's intricate understanding of our property, and the nuances of the suburb where it is located, enabled her to suggest marketing it a price which was not only substantially above the suggested price of other agents, but which also exceeded our most optimistic expectations. During a very difficult time in the property market, with the Covid-19 lockdown coinciding with her mandate, Carin nonetheless was able to bring us 3 firm offers to purchase, all above 95% of list price, and a final sale at over 96% of list price. I have no hesitation in recommending Carin to market vour property. Her calm professionalism, work ethic, and seasoned insights will ensure the best potential of your property value will be realised at sale. Sincerely, Lance Smith"

"To sellers and buyers out there, the only realtor you will ever want is Carin Rolstone. She is simply the best! Her professionalism, friendliness, patience, high quality of work and service, sound advice and fast turn-around times is something to be admired, not only in her industry – but every industry. She assisted me in not only selling my house (within days) but also helped me to secure another property in record time. Carin – words cannot express the gratitude I have for you and all that you have done for me, and also my family. From being your client, to now calling you my friend. Thank you, Thank you, Thank you. You have a heart of gold, and you are a blessing to all who know you. Angela Naidoo"

"Dear Carin, We would like to utilize this opportunity to formally express our thanks and gratitude to you. Our property process and search started Mid 2021, and we really did our homework with our relocation from Johannesburg to Cape Town. In this due process we engaged with varied and various parties in the realty World, and with differentiated Estate Agents and Estate Agencies alike. Some good, some bad. And we were left concerned with the service levels experienced. That was until by pure Grace, we met you and our paths crossed. We have bough and sold our fair share of properties, but never have we come across an individual, person, Agent and now friend as with you. The statement, that you go out of your way, way beyond the norm to assist your buyers, in our case, would in itself be an understatement. Your service levels, assistance, being available at the oddest and sometimes most inconvenient hours, over weekends is just at incomparable levels. You are undoubtedly a fully committed, professional individual in every word and on all levels in your calling. Through the total process, from initiation, through the masses of required paperwork, to the closure and completion, it was nothing but superb communication and co-ordination with all parties involved from your side. In addition your honesty and integrity must also be acknowledged. You have set the Bar so high, some Agents will never attain your levels of service. You are an asset to your Company, Agency and to your future buyers and sellers. We wish you nothing but the best. We can recommend your services to anyone, whether they are buying or selling their property. Thank you for your time and commitment with our process. Regards, Louis and Elize van der Merwe Blouberg Sands"

"We can highly recommend Carin Rolestone from Realtor of Excellence as the best in the industry! My husband got offered a position in an overseas company and we needed to sell our house during the quite time of December. We made contact with a few agents and accepted an offer, only for it not to materialise while we were away on a short holiday. Upon the return from our holiday in January, we contacted Carin. She was just amazing! After phoning her she immediately arranged for herself and a colleague to photograph and make a virtual walk through of our home in order to start marketing our house. She handled every step with such professionalism and so much care, taking all our needs into consideration, especially our personal space. It was a day and night difference compared to the first agents we had contacted. Carin would schedule multiple viewings on a particular day, instead of having daily viewings, which was great! I never felt like our home was a train station. We relied on her every step of the way. Carin brought such valuable knowledge, experience and professionalism to the sale of our home. Due to the relationships she has with other professionals in the industry she assisted in obtaining our home compliance documentation with reputable and very professional companies, whom were very accommodating and helpful. Her recommended bond originator, Ronel, was very efficient and went above and beyond what was required. Carin helped make such a stressful time in our lives so much easier. Before I had to leave Cape Town our house was sold, all the paperwork signed and I could leave knowing everything was taken care of, it was now just a matter of final transfer. Due to Carin’s efforts our home was sold and signed for within 5 weeks. We are still blown away at how quickly and how efficiently everything went! We are so thankful and grateful to you Carin! Kind regards, Sharleen de Raedt"

"Herewith my experience with Carin Rolstone: A close friend of mine referred me to Carin. We clicked from our first meeting, and not for any other reason than Carin being the spontaneous person that she is. She was there from step 1. She kept me up to date with every client enquiring about our property. She would always go the extra mile to accommodate myself and the buyer. I would recommend her to anyone, anytime. There is no other way to describe my experience with Carin, as phenomenal. The whole process was a breeze with her by my side. She even went as far as to accompany me to view potential properties for me to buy, even though it was not her listing. I cannot thank her enough for all she has done for me. From listing our property to getting a bond for my new property, Carin was by my side ALL THE WAY. And always just a call, or whatsapp away. She is like gold in your pocket. Thank you for all your hard work Carin"

"I will, without a moments hesitation, recommend Carin Rolstone to anyone selling or buying a property. She is an estate agent par excellence, keeping you updated and informed every step of the way!

"Dear Carin, Just a sincere thank you for not only being the most professional agent i've had the pleasure of dealing with, but that you have also become a good friend. I purchased my property through you, and sold it through you while i was in Pretoria, and the peace of mind i had during this transaction is not something every Seller gets to experience. You handled everything perfectly from start to finish! Thank you!"

"Dear Carin, Thank you for helping me to find the right home for me. You are the absolute best at what you do, and spray that many more will experience the professionalism, integrity and attention to detail that I have come to appreciate about you. You have truly made this very long and daunting journey fun! Thank you for going above and beyond! Kind regards, Nompilo August 2022"

"This was the 2nd time Carin Rolstone has sold one of my properties. My experience with her the first time gave me complete contidence to use her services again. Her friendly and calm personality plus her professionalism in the way she approaches everything from the initial viewing of the property, photos, everything in the written contract, the explanation, and even everything in between, to the sale being completed, she makes it so smooth and easy.

She makes the process of selling buying property a pleasure for both the seller and the buyer. will use her services again to sell or buy property at any time in the future.
