Tom's Reviews
Doug Simon
If you are buying or selling Commercial or Residential property in Noosa you must contact Forde Property. I've Bought or sold 14 properties in the Noosa area over the past few years and have ONLY used this agency. Tom, the principal, has always got me the best possible result and his staff work just as hard to get results for their clients. Forde Property also manage my rental properties and do a superb job whether managing the day to day rent etc or negotiating long term leases on Commercial Properties

Tom and the team at Forde Property have looked after my industrial properties for many years. I trust them completely. They have proved to be reliable and friendly but firm to my tenants. They are proactive and always checking with me for anything costing money.
Di Bagnara is exceptional.

Tom is results orientated. He achieves success through continual follow-up and creating deals/opportunities often by thinking creatively. It is a pleasure to work with Tom and to see the level of customer service he provides to his clients… the feedback from them says it all!
David Zuric
I can recommend Tom as the very best of the best of the Commercial property and business agents in Noosa or the region for that matter.
Not only he is the best agent, focused on client service, but also an excellent Principal with a clear understanding of the market and how to go about getting the tops for our clients. An atmosphere of total cooperation is within the office staff and the sales personnel. His door is always open!

You don’t get into the “Captains Club” without serious performance and you don’t attract testimonials like Toms without serious results. Under any scrutiny, Tom Forde’s performance is at the highest level and I would have no hesitation in recommending him to anyone wanting top professional expertise and a commitment to excellence.
Karen Martin
Tom, I just wanted to say thank you for all you did, great service, answering emails, all our questions etc and for your words of encouragement and support in the beginning.
Having never done this before and dealt with leases, solicitors it's been a learning process.Thank you to your staff too, Diane Bagnara has been very good and easy to talk too.
Stephen McNamara

Yvonne Aitkin
I wish to express my immense gratitude to Tom Forde and the team at Forde Property for the outstanding, professional service I received over the last 5 years and in particular the extremely difficult last 12 months in which they were able to negotiate and release both my Noosaville Commercial properties. I would not hesitate to recommend Tom and the team to any landlord or tenant who requires a professional, intelligent, knowledgeable, caring team to attend to their requirements.
Barbara Trethewy
We both found Tom to be both true to his word, very reliable and honest in our dealings with him. Would I recommend Tom? Most definitely.
Di Henshall
Tom Forde definitely thinks outside the square. I had a property that we had withdrawn from sale because I decided I still need its use. However, Tom found a buyer for the property, but before presenting this to me, he came up with an ingenious solution to my property requirements finding and securing another property; a fact that makes much more sense to our long-term future, than staying with the original property. I value Tom’s opinion and his negotiating skills. He has a great capacity for patience and understanding to arrive at the best solution. It is true what other people have said about him, he is not your average real estate agent.
Daryl Cook
I have been so impressed with the wholesale process through Forde Property. So often the salesperson hammers you to sign you up and take money off you for marketing and then you don’t hear anything. This has not been the case at all with your company. Communication has been excellent – no nonsense; no setting unrealistic expectations; clear and honest and I believe you have worked in our best interests, unlike other experiences I have had, where I felt the Agent was working in the interests of the buyer, not the seller. Thank you for that. I have no hesitation in either recommending Forde Property or indeed, in using your services again.
Meg Lawrence
If you have a property to sell or buy, I strongly recommend you talk to Tom Forde. It is all very well to pigeon-hole him and say “Oh he’s just a Real Estate Agent”. He is, but he’s not. He truly cares about his clients. He also makes opportunities, unlike some agents. He is forceful, but not aggressive. My experience with him? So far he has sold two of my properties. One had been sitting for twelve months, and the other had been vacant for about two months with no buyer in sight. Both were sold within a month of Tom Forde taking over my account. I can only speak for myself, but I have no hesitation in recommending Tom Forde as a responsible agent.
Russell Leary, Star Resorts CEO
It was a breath of fresh air to meet Tom, he was very knowledgeable in all facets of the industry and we had full confidence he would get the deal done. I would strongly recommend him to anyone wanting to buy or sell commercial property.
