‘Justin and Nivek are a highly professional team that ensure their client's best interests from purchasing a property as an advocate to having it managed.
I would highly recommend them both for either of these services’.

‘Justin from IPB is extremely knowledgeable, honest, professional, with very reasonable fees. We are looking forward to dealing with him again for our second investment property purchase.
Property is Justin's forte, not mine nor my husbands. Let Justin do the hard work for you AND negotiate the best price!’
