I had an excellent experience with the team at Burgess Thomson. They guided me through the purchasing process and made it completely effortless for me. Their reviews of strata reports and the like were amazing, and actually saved me from purchasing a property with a horrible strata, and I ended up finding a much better place thanks to them. I would 100% recommend Burgess Thomson to anyone and I will definitely be using their services again in the future.
Response from the owner:Thank you, Tobias, for your wonderful review. We're delighted our thorough approach to home purchasing and strata analysis protected your interests. Burgess Thomson takes pride in guiding clients with confidence through significant decisions. We look forward to assisting you again.
We dealth with James at Burgess Thomson for the purchased of an apartment in Wickham and found him to be very professional. He was extremely thorough in checking things but was very personable. They communicated with us every step of the way keeping us informed at all times. I would definitely recommend using them and plan to do so soon to update our wills.
Response from the owner:Thank you, Nerrilie, for your wonderful review. We're delighted James delivered a professional conveyancer service with thorough attention to detail and clear communication. The team at Burgess Thomson truly appreciates your recognition and looks forward to assisting with your wills and future legal needs.

5 stars. Having known James for some years indirectly, and over those years being extremely impressed with his professionalism and kindness, to me it was a no brainer to approach James in regards to purchasing my first home with my partner. From Offer, contract negotiation to settlement, James and his team provided us service that was second to none. Making the entire journey as stress free as possible. We will definitely use Burgess Thompson again and would highly recommend for others to do so. Regards
Response from the owner:Thank you, Aiden, for your wonderful review. We're delighted James and the team delivered expert guidance as your property lawyer for your first home purchase. Your recognition of our stress-free approach and professionalism is deeply appreciated. Burgess Thomson looks forward to assisting you again.
