Simon was very confident and knowledgeable about the markets and the Strathmore area. He responded quickly to all our enquiries. He became a little frustrated with us when we changed our mind about going ahead with the sale but to his credit he worked it through with us and we got a good outcome. He wanted to go to auction but we accepted an offer prior to auction. thank you and well done.

Paul McDonald
We had a great experience buying our property through Rhys. He was very transparent and responsive. We appreciated his genuineness as first home buyers, new to the process of purchasing a home.
Rhys Afford
We sold our low value property in a difficult market in MLB, but we were left with the thought that Rhys left nothing on the table. We were really happy with the result.

Pau recently sold a property on me behalf where I had a power of attorney for a long time client. His assistance with all things related to the property sale was excellent as was his consideration of the circumstances surrounding the property sale. I would recommend Paul for anyone looking to sell their property.

We reached out to Rhys after years with using McDonald Upton as our rental company, so we decided go with them to sell our property. The whole experience with Rhys has been exceptional. Rhys has made this whole process seamless, from organising trades people to staging and finally the sale of our property. We cannot thank Rhys enough, he truely is amazing in all aspects, we highly recommend Rhys if your thinking of selling , as he goes above and beyond.

Working with Simon was an absolute pleasure from start to finish. He was professional, trustworthy, and managed our expectations every step of the way. His expert advice and deep understanding of the market helped us get the price we wanted in just 7 days! Simon made the entire process smooth and stress-free, and we always felt confident in his guidance. We highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable, experienced real estate agent.

McDonald Upton recently helped us with the sale of my mother's Essendon home, a home that had been in the family for almost seventy years. Our initial meeting was with Paul McDonald. He wasn't the only agent approached. Like most of the others interviewed, he showed a professional enthusiasm for the task and a keen understanding of Essendon's Real Estate climate. Unlike the others, his approach was low key, straightforward and for want of a better word, honest. Akin to a trusted family retainer. In other circumstances you'd be happy to call him friend. As the campaign progressed we were continually kept in the loop and it was clear that he, Rhys and the team behind them were hard at it. This was borne out when, on the day of the auction, half of Melbourne turned out for the event. The result was very satisfactory, both for ourselves and, I believe, for the purchaser. Smiles all around. And it must be said Rhys Afford is a very smart young man, he having chosen such an astute mentor. Thanks again McDonald Upton. Job well done.

Paul has been very accomodating and understanding during the process of selling the house. He did an amazing job selling the property in 2 weeks.

Property was outside Simon’s territory and the put the extra work in so as to achieve an excellent result!
