Why choose us? We believe in being good humans first, real estate agents second.
Here’s what that means for your property sale:
Concierge Service — We handle everything: tradies, staging, photography, presale reports, utilities, and paperwork. Complete transparency in what we’re doing.
Team Approach — You don’t get one agent who might be having an off day. You get our entire team backing your sale.
Always Improving — We track what works, learn from what doesn’t, and get better at what we do with every property sale.
Presale Building & Pest Reports — Partnering with Before You Buy to build buyer confidence, reduce risk, and speed up sales.
Exclusive Off-Market Access — Through Nitschke Coming Soon, we tap into our buyer database before your property hits the open market.
Local Focus — From Mount Barker to Strathalbyn to Murray Bridge, we know every street, school zone, and market trend because we live here too.
Our Selling Process: Honest, Collaborative, Always Evolving
We keep it simple, transparent, and focused on your goals.
1. Appraisal & Strategy
We start with a free property appraisal, reviewing recent local sales and current demand. Together, we decide on the best sales method — private treaty, auction, or best offer by — honest numbers, not inflated estimates.
2. Prepare & Present
Our team coordinates all presale preparation: styling, photography, floor plans, building & pest reports, and any maintenance or upgrades. Multiple team members ensure nothing falls through cracks.
3. Launch & Market
Your home is promoted through Realestate.com.au, Domain, the Nitschke website, targeted social media advertising, email alerts to our VIP buyer list, and (if you choose) our Coming Soon off-market platform.
4. Negotiate & Sell
We handle all buyer enquiries, follow up every lead, and negotiate with your best interests at heart. Our team discusses every offer together before we advise you. Regular updates until settlement is complete.
Marketing That Actually Works
We test, measure, and improve our marketing constantly. We tell your property’s story with professional photography, video, and copywriting that connects emotionally with buyers. Every campaign is designed to:
Maximise Exposure — Multi-channel marketing across all platforms
Create Competition — Multiple interested buyers put forward their best offers through our transparent offer platform
Highlight Your Home’s Unique Appeal — Authentic presentation in every image, video, and word
Continuous Improvement — If something isn’t working, we change it. You’ll know exactly what we’re adjusting and why.
Our Promise to You
When you sell with Nitschke, you can expect:
Same-day replies to your calls and emails
Weekly campaign updates so you're never left wondering
Every buyer followed up for feedback and genuine interest
Straightforward advice backed by local knowledge and sales data
Complete Transparency — Full visibility into what we're doing and how it's working
We measure our success by more than the price we achieve — it’s also the trust, care, and confidence you feel throughout the process.

I am so grateful to James & his team. This sale was particularly difficult for me on a personal level but James was considerate & patient throughout the entire process. He was professional, kept me informed, went above & beyond & got an amazing result. I wouldn't hesitate recommending James if you are looking to sell.

James was exactly what a real estate agent should be. He was open, honest and genuine. He effectively communicated with us throughout the buying process and helped us feel safe and confident in purchasing a new home. We felt that the relationship was just as important to him as the sale, and we felt valued as customers.
James is a credit to Nitschke Real Estate.

Michael was honest and professional throughout our interactions. As new homeowners, we had several questions which Michael answered patiently, offering us support and guidance. We are extremely grateful to him for helping us to buy our new home and would highly recommend him to help buy or sell your home. Thank you Michael 🙂

We had the pleasure of working with Michael at Nitschke for the purchase of our new home, and the experience was absolutely fantastic. Michael, along with the entire Nitschke team, were exceptionally warm, approachable, and wonderful communicators throughout the whole process. The thoughtful settlement-day hamper was such an awesome touch — it made us feel truly valued and celebrated. Couldn’t recommend Michael and the Nitschke crew highly enough!

Ayden is a true professional, he help us through all the stages of the sale of our property. What to us sometimes seemed an overwhelming series of options and decisions, Ayden guided us and advised us the best way to proceed. His help was invaluable and we can't praise him enough for his effort and dedication to complete the sale of our home.

Nitschke Real Estate has been managing our little cottage since 2018. When we decided it was time to sell we didn’t hesitate to contact the team. Daniel had been keeping us updated with the market since we started working with Nitschke and we felt very comfortable to ask him to work with us to sell the cottage. Daniel is a great communicator, we never wondered what was happening, and when the time came to make a decision we knew that we had all the information we needed. Highly recommend.

I had one weekend of open houses and received a high number of offers, more than I was expecting. Ayden was reliable and honest about the property’s marketing strategy. I highly recommend Ayden because he is truthful and knowledgeable about the market, even in an area of Adelaide he doesn’t work in often.

James was outstanding from start to finish. He stayed in touch for months while we searched for a new home, then sold ours unconditionally in just 2 weeks once we were ready. He’s transparent, communicates clearly, and brought in a huge number of strong offers with helpful context. The Nitschke team was also excellent—efficient and professional throughout. We’re so glad we chose James and highly recommend him!

We have had a great experience buying our home from James. He is genuine and easy to communicate with. The whole process has been smooth and easy. He was happy to arrange an additional viewing of the house after the contract was signed, which allowed us to show our new home to our family which we greatly appreciate. Thanks James!
