My mother and I used Stuart Howard and his partner Stephen O'Sullivan for the sale of her one bedroom apartment in Wollstonecraft. She had lived there for almost exactly 40 years come auction day so the sale was both a wrench and important because it's success would fund her retirement. Stuart never over or undersold what he thought the property might fetch, even in those two crucial moments for clients and agents: when trying to win the business and in the moments before the auction begins. He always kept me updated, returned every call promptly and was reasonable with his fees. The property sold for above my expectations after a well-handled campaign. I am very happy to recommend both Stuart and Stephen.

I have known Stuart for many years as a member of our Owners' Corporation. I was fully confident that he would act for me with knowledge, integrity, and the best outcome in view. Stuart set a figure as a guide, and although we did not achieve this figure, he was able to persuade the buyer to improve his original offer. During negotiations between the parties, Stuart kept me informed, phoning me on a daily basis to assure me that all was progressing properly. This communication was particularly appreciated. Stuart's skills ensure that after the sale one can think of him as a friend. OL

Stuart Howard was the consummate professional when it came to managing the recent sale of our property. From the outset, Stuart’s communication skills were first class, he was always calm, consistently reliable and proved to be a very genuine person. Stuart provided accurate advice during the sale process, and we felt very early on that we had made the correct choice of agent, which during a testing market, was a reassuring position to be in. As an important additional point, the successful purchaser remarked on the auction day how professional Stuart was throughout the process. This was an important consideration for us when selecting an agent, and Stuart lived up to expectations. A big thank you also to Wayne Marriott and other members of his team, including Peter Baldwin (their superb auctioneer), and their talented stylist, Kyara Coakes, for their professional and friendly advice and service. Looking back, it really was a very well run team effort, all led by Stuart. We were so very satisfied with the outcome in a challenging market.

Stuart acted for the Vendor, I was the Purchaser however from the start, he has always been available, open and honest, prompt to answer queries and get back to me. That in itself shows integrity and a professional attitude. Even post sale as the Buyer, he's been willing to help and assist where as most agents just take the commission and move on. He's a lovely man to deal with.

Stuart and his team were very helpful with coordinating my purchase of an apartment in Naremburn from the US. Stuart helped overcome a number of challenges that come from purchasing from overseas by being proactive, engaged and always willing to help and coordinate things on the ground with my family who were assisting.

I was apprehensive about selling my property in Wollstonecraft, having lived there for 26 years. It was a family home for a time so there was an emotional attachment for myself and my daughters. Another issue, as it was late last year, 2018, and not a seller’s market… to sell or wait? Having made the decision to sell I called Stuart Howard at Marriot Lane Real Estate. I had maintained contact with stuart over several years, during that time he regularly updated me regarding sales in the area. Stuart’s area of expertise during two meetings he gave me a comprehensive summary of as he described it, the process of marketing and selling real estate, it is a process Stuart would say. During the following weeks, it assisted me to take the experience a step at a time and result in what I felt like i would be mission impossible - with Stuart’s strategy it seemed possible. The short marketing campaign began in early November and the auction in mid December, the campaign continued well, owing to Stuart’s competence, diligence, hard work and natural ability in marketing and selling real estate. He was also sensitive to the nostalgia myself and family felt for the property which i appreciated. During the pre auction period and on the day, stuart had the able assistance of Stephen ’Sullivan and Wayne Marriott of Marriott Lane real estate. Also Peter Baldwin, our auctioneer, who conducted the auction until its successful conclusion in an amiable and professional manner. An effective team I would not hesitate to contact again and recommend to others. Stuart with his calm confidence steered me through the process, with formidable and minimal stress for all concerned. He delivered with unfailing courtesy, humour, and always a smile, result is an all round good experience. thank you Stuart.

Stuart was a pleasure to deal with. He was open, honest and transparent throughout the whole process and kept us informed every step of the way. His calm and professional demeanour was refreshing and he was always respectful of our input and of our home.

Stuart's many years of experience in real estate sales is evident from the first time you meet him. Stuart is a good listener who spends time getting to understand your needs, as a seller and becomes well informed on the prospective buyers. Stuart's commitment to regular communication updates were as advised, on the agreed days and time. These updates were informative and honest. Stuart's advise was effective while respecting our requests. Under tough market conditions Stuart delivered a good outcome which was looking unlikely. Stuart is a true professional who delivers on his words.

Stuart was quick to engage and mobilised the support needed to get my apartment on the market rapidly which resulted in a satisfactory outcome on auction day. Clear communication throughout.

The company was very professional, yet friendly... which kept the auction relaxed. Stuart was very considerate in facilitating the road to settlement ... particularly needed for the elderly vendor. Through this process he was most accommodating and helpful in managing the needs of both sides, and the ‘legal hurdles’ that emerged. As the purchaser, I found his approach quite refreshing. Well done Stuart!
