About Sandra
Sandra and Gordon Sweetnam worked together nearly 30 years ago at Derrin Bros in Balgowlah. While Gordon left to start Sweetnams Real Estate, Sandra stayed on to then take over and acquire Derrin Bros, changing its name to North Harbour Real Estate. For many years Sandra, and her husband Peter, successfully operated from their prime position on the corner of Condamine Street and Sydney Road. Now at Sweetnams, we, landlords and vendors all benefit from the wealth of experience and knowledge that she has gained during her illustrious career. Sandra is a person who gets things done! She is the ultimate professional and a delight to be around. Her unwavering ethics, desire to succeed and commitment to both the industry and her clients are obvious from the moment you meet her. Sweetnams are all the better for having Sandra as part of their team and we commend her to you should you be thinking of leasing or selling your property.

Jeremy conducted the sale of my house at Forestville

In relocating after 54 years in the one house, my wife and I were absolute beginners at the process. Jeremy was highly recommended to us by our daughter for whom he had managed both a sale and a purchase on her behalf. Advice from Jeremy on all aspects of the sale revealed to us the breadth of his experience in real estate matters, his concern for our welfare as clients, and the accuracy of advice on matters such as when to sell, how to prepare the house for sale, and setting a realistic asking price. We would highly recommend his services to any person who asks for our opinion.

Wonderful agent!

It was an absolute pleasure dealing with Loris throughout our house purchase. Loris has an in-depth market knowledge of the local area which was invaluable, particularly for us as first time buyers. He went above and beyond to ensure the process was seamless for all parties. We would most highly recommend Loris to buyers and sellers! Thank you Loris

Balgowlah Agent

Loris from Sweetnams handled the sale of our property 16 Urunga St Nth Balgowlah very professionally. It was an old home but Loris was positive throughout the process. He remained very professional and confident and maintained communication throughout. Loris did not put pressure on us to sell or accept lower prices.
