"Mr. Thilina Abeysuriya - Director of Straight Sale (Pvt) Ltd, was instrumental in assisting me in the sale of my house in Battaramulla. It was an absolute pleasure dealing with Thilina as he was always available to discuss and make his suggestions which in turn helped me to sell my house within a short period of time.
I also must mention that from the time I got in touch with Thilina, he immediately made it a point to visit the house, obtained all relevant information from me and made sure photographs were taken and very next day itself the details of my house was posted on his website. Each time he brought potential clients to show the house, he acted very professionally, convincing potential buyers of the unique features of my house. Finally, when the buyer confirmed the sale, he also assisted me in the process of the sale and advised me of the legal requirements necessary to execute the sale in a very short period.
I would like to place on record my sincere appreciation for the professionalism and the commitment shown by Thilina and would recommend him to anyone who would require his services.”Mr. Rohan Indrajith

“I would like to share my experience of working with Straight Sale (Pvt) Ltd on the sale of my waterfront house in Nugegoda. When I contacted them with my requirement, they immediately scheduled to visit and photograph my property. During the first visit, I was briefed on the entire selling process in a very transparent manner. Further, they suggested important documents that I should obtain to ensure a smooth transaction and advised on minor repairs that I should perform.
Within a few days, I received a professional brochure with beautiful photographs of my house along with a detailed description for my approval prior to advertising. Further, I received an indicative market valuation with a recommended asking price for my property which was justified by market evidence. The marketing efforts executed by Straight Sale were extensive and within a short period of time the property was inspected by many potential buyers. Each viewing was scheduled with advance notice at a mutually convenient time and each buyer was accompanied by an agent of Straight Sale and given a guided tour of my house.
When an acceptable offer was received; Straight Sale facilitated the offer letter, collection and handover of documents, advised on the terms and conditions of the sales & purchase agreement and finally witnessed the execution of the deed of transfer. After looking back, I realised why they encouraged me to proactively obtain numerous approvals and documentation in advance of finding a buyer. This greatly expedited the transaction and I am glad that I took their advice.
I felt 110% confident by partnering with Straight Sale. They were candid, provided great feedback, helped explain clearly all details and managed the actual sale negotiation brilliantly. In addition, they were extremely responsive to every one of my questions, no matter how small. At each point during the course of the transaction, Straight Sale demonstrated utmost professionalism, punctuality, transparency and trust. I have no hesitation in recommending Straight Sale (Pvt) Ltd to anybody looking to sell real estate in Colombo.”Mr. Wijayadasa Palliyaguruge

“This testimonial is to express our gratitude towards Straight Sale for recently helping us to purchase our perfect home. After searching for the perfect home for over six months with no luck, we were fortunate to come across an advertisement listed by Straight Sale. The advertisement itself was very comprehensive as it contained a complete description of the property along with the location & surroundings which was accompanied by a series of attractive photos which allowed us to get a good idea of the property.
At the point of inspection, Mr. Thilina Abeysuriya from Straight Sale arrived at the property with the keys even before the scheduled time and gave us a comprehensive tour of the property while highlighting the positive and negative aspects of the house. He was able to answer all our questions and was very flexible as he allowed me to bring my son and engineer on the very same day to inspect the house as well. My wife and I were happy to find and agent who was passionate about helping us, would listen patiently to our needs and gave us candid and impartial advice at all times.
The next day I submitted my offer and after a series of negotiations mediated by Straight Sale, my offer was accepted. On the very same day, Straight Sale facilitated the transfer of the documentation required by my lawyer to perform the required due diligence. My lawyer requested some additional documentation which was obtained by Straight Sale from the owner & relevant local authorities and handed over to my lawyer in a very organised and timely manner.
My wife & I had just sold our home and obviously we've dealt with many agents/brokers both on the buying and selling side. I have to say that Straight Sale is by far the best agent we've ever worked with, their professionalism, personality, attention to detail, responsiveness and ability to close the deal was outstanding. If you are buying or selling a home, do yourselves a favour and hire Straight Sale!”Mrs. Neela Panditharatna

“Straight Sale was strongly recommended to me by a close acquaintance who had previously sought their services. I was looking to purchase a house for my daughter and having communicated to Thilina at Straight Sale of my requirement, they were quick to arrange for me to inspect multiple properties that met my daughters’ specifications.
After viewing multiple options which I was not happy with, they encouraged me to inspect a house slightly outside the locality which I preferred as they knew this house would meet my expectation in terms of quality. Even though I reluctantly agreed to visit this property, I was truly impressed with what I saw and was glad they encouraged me to visit.
As my daughter was overseas, Straight Sale arranged for her to see a detailed video walkthrough of the house, the surroundings and clarified all her concerns. Due to multiple offers being made towards this property, Straight Sale advised me throughout the negotiations and secured the house for me at a competitive price.
I was keen to conclude the purchase swiftly due to competitive offers from other potential buyers. To facilitate this, Straight Sale were extremely helpful in obtaining all the relevant documentation requested by my lawyer and ensured that a sales and purchase agreement was signed without any delay. I am extremely grateful to Thilina & his team at Straight Sale who were a pleasure to work with and can be highly recommended without any hesitation!“
