We chose Simon as our agent as he was recommended by friends and neighbours and he certainly came through. In a very tough market, he was able to negotiate and secure a price that met our expectations. Right from the start, Simon was very clear and upfront about the costs associated with sale of our property. Throughout the marketing campaign he kept us informed of the potential buyers and organised inspections to suit us and continuously communicated with us about any progress during this period and right through to the successful sale. We would be happy to recommend Simon to any of our friends to handle any property sales in the future

Julia did an excellent job communicating with my wife & I at all times regarding the sale of our property. Her professionalism showed through her enthusiasm & we’re so happy to have chosen McDonald Upton

Simon is fully aware of the market conditions and has been very honest in his appraisals and information about the present property market. He has been very reliable and conscientious in his duties.

I recently used Simon Cookson to sell my unit at Ardoch Street, Essendon. Simon was extremely professional and efficient. He knew the market value of the property, gave examples of similar unit prices in the area, personally outlined the procedures from signing up, and what to expect at auction day. I cannot speak too highly of how Simon managed the advertising process/open days and eventually auction day. His local knowledge and friendly approach certainly added to a rewarding experience both from the seller and buyer. I will only recommend Simon(and McDonald Upton) to my family and friends!

We sold within two weeks of going onto a cooling market. Joe, with his open and positive manner, kept us informed (and very entertained) throughout the sometimes challenging process of selling our family home.

From the onset Paul was upfront, honest and dedicated to achieving a sale of our home. Paul and his team were alway professional with their dealings. Would definitely recommend Mcdonald Upton Realestate to any future seller in the Strathmore area

Selling a family home is always hard, but Joe made the sale of our home smooth and kept us informed at every step. I would absolutely use Joe again and I already highly recommend his services to friends and family. Thank you Joe for helping us complete one chapter and open the doors to the new.
