Bassam Tofaili

Director

I found my passion for Real Estate in 2004 when I worked as a Sales Executive, and it was then I realised that the Real Estate industry rewards hard work & results. My greatest gift was my energetic approach, a positive attitude for my team and all of my clients. I have had the chance to meet many incredible people, high-calibre individuals and build wonderful relationships. This is the cornerstone to any success in life. In the 18 years I've been in the industry I attribute my success in Real Estate to my exceptional knowledge, passionate leadership, holistic approach and the support of my dynamic sales team who share my commitment & my vision to continue to deliver outstanding results for our clients. I love all the challenges thrown at me in Real Estate, and I would do it all over again. But what really drives me in life is my family. I love spending quality time with my wife Zeinah & our three children Aimen, Alina & Laila. Whilst dining out as a family we enjoy exploring different cuisines, love to travel, going to the beach, bike adventures & socialising with family & friends. I am continually exploring different Naturopathy and training forms. Over the past 15 years I studied Wing Chun Kung Fu and apply the principles to achieve high performance results in my everyday life & business.
Bassam was friendly, knowledgeable and kept me up to date with everything when I was selling my apartment. Wonder communication, would definitely recommend - thank you!

The absolute best in the business! Bassam and the team made our experience of buying our first home a calm and positive experience. Bassam diligently answered all our questions and on multiple occasions went above and beyond in providing service to us. I would wholeheartedly refer Bassam to anyone looking to buy or sell!

Nicholas & Anastasia

Couldn't be happier! Bassam is the best! Bassam really is exactly what you need when selling. He is not your typical real estate agent at all in that he is not pushy or overbearing. He gives everything 120%. He is very considerate of your circumstances and is patient whilst also helping you along the difficult road, particularly when you are, as I was, selling the family home of 30 years. He is extraordinarily generous with his time and energy, professional at all times, researches constantly, knows the market, can relate to potential buyers without hassling them, assists in presenting the property at its best and doesn't cut corners! I felt supported and confident throughout the process and am happy with the result. Highly Recommend!

I had the pleasure of dealing with Bassam for my recent move to Melbourne and I couldn't have been happier with the experience. Bassam was professional, knowledgeable, and always available to answer any questions that I had about the property or the area. Even after I moved in, he made himself available to assist with any questions I had and ensured any maintenance work was attended to on time. His attention to detail and commitment to exceptional service sets him apart from others. I would highly recommend Bassam to anyone looking for an outstanding agent.

Great experience throughout. Sam has been great to deal with through the whole process. We had a very stressful settlement due to difficulties with financing and he did what he could to help. Communication was always good and he is a really nice guy. He might even make me think that real estate agents aren’t that bad after all. Lol. I would highly recommend Sam to anyone. Thanks Sam for our amazing new residence and workshops in Brunswick

Professional Integrity. Respect. Transparency. Being first home buyers and having  dealt with other agents who were quite shonky, we were pleasantly surprised when we came across Bassam Tofaili from YPA Bayside.

Best in the Business! Very satisfied with Bassam in the sale of my property. He is trustworthy, hard working, very professional and made the entire process simple and stress free.

Highly recommended!

Professionalism at its best. Bassam is very professional in everything that he does and kept us well informed during the selling process and worked hard to achieve the best possible price for our property.

Graham & Sandra

My experience of Bassam has been outstanding. He fully appreciated my context of needs. Bassam gave expert advice, was always available displayed an expert knowledge of the market and put me in contact with a conveyor of exceptional quality. My property had several problems beyond the control of both of us, think poor management, issues with cladding and a long term tenant with a long lease. Bassam managed these and other challenges with real patience and effect. I appreciated his knowledge of the market, treatment of me and lots of consideration of my demanding work commitment, limited availability, and other challenges. Bassam has integrity, clear communication, a warm personality as well as being very very good at his job. I rate him highly to anybody seeking a high quality agent.
