Integrity and Professionalism at all times.

Integrity and Professionalism at all times.

We used Joe and the team from McDonald Upton to sell our property in Essendon. From the very beginning Joe showed us that he had a very comprehensive knowledge of the local real estate market. There were no wild promises and no over-inflated expectations. Joe helped to tailor a sale campaign which suited our requirements perfectly and would subsequently produce a great result for us. He was always punctual, returned our calls and kept us fully informed at every stage of the campaign. His timing of the market and his knowledge of his buyers produced a final result which was way beyond our expectations . We would use Joe as our real estate agent again and we have no hesitation in recommending Joe as a complete professional with the utmost integrity. Sincerely, Joe and Rhonda Cichello.

The best real-estate experience that we have ever had !

We had the pleasure of using Julia and the McDonald Upton team to sell our house in Essendon. From the very outset we were taken by Julia’s enthusiastic and friendly manner. She is very genuine and sincere which helps her to very quickly establish a relationship of trust with both vendor and buyers. We found Julia to be totally professional and reliable. She was always punctual, always returned our calls and kept us fully informed at every stage of the sale campaign. Julia and her team helped us achieve a great result with our sale. Her knowledge of the market and the trust that she had built with her buyers helped us achieve a result which was beyond our expectations. We would definitely use Julia’s services again and we have no hesitation in recommending Julia’s services to anyone looking for a completely professional real estate agent with the utmost integrity. Sincerely, Joe and Rhonda Cichello.

Julia was informative and professional in the advice she gave us. She managed the campaign very smoothly and even when there was a slight hiccup at the end she went above and beyond to resolve the issue in our favour. Her cheerful personality is refreshing

Simon and his team have the market covered in regard to the sale of boutique prestige property. They operate on a higher level than the competition which is the reason the boutique firm of McDonald Upton remains the market leader in this market sector
