Andrew and the team at Ray White Belconnen guided us through the house sale process professionally, courteously and compassionately achieving a significant outcome, better than we envisaged. Thank you for your great work. I would highly recommend you.
Andrew Lonsdale is a true professional. With many years experience he has a canny knack of marketing property. Initially our need was for somebody who listened and understood our issues; and Andrew is a good listener! He did not promise what he could not deliver and so went about with quiet efficiency building a clientele who would be at the auction. Andrew has built around him a team of tradesman - painters, gardeners, and maintenance who we employed to prepare the house for sale, and we were very impressed with their quality of work and pricing; these all expressed their long term loyalty to Andrew. On the few occasions we felt standards had slipped with one supplier Andrew was disappointed and was quick to follow up. Andrew's communication was timely and regular. After each home open he rang and when we expressed anxiety at a few stages about the process, due to our lack of knowledge, he listened carefully, and gave appropriate advice and reassurance. Andrew's experience, his quiet manner, his personable nature, calm assurances and his sales philosophy made this as relaxing as it could possibly be
We had planned an interstate move prior to COVID and approached the sale of our much loved house with trepidation. Within days of listing Andrew had found several serious buyers. We exchanged 8 days after the first advertisement was published and for a very good price. I cannot recommend Andrew and his team highly enough.
We first met Andrew (and Team Lonsdale) when looking for our new home and although we were the buyers, it really felt that he and his team were all working to our best interests too. He kept us updated and dealt with our requests, hopes and expectations with professionalism, courtesy and always a warm smile. So much so, that when coming to sell our old house we immediately knew he was the agent for the job. In preparing our house for sale, Andrew guided us expertly through the process of having the house redecorated and styled. The team heroically coordinated the work that was to be done and took the stress from us. Whenever a inevitable glitch arose, it was Andrew front and centre resolving the problem. Finally - and much to our surprise - he still secured us an above expectation sale price even after the auction was cancelled due to Covid19. Thank you Andy and Team Lonsdale!
Andrew sold my property within a week. His top class professional skills, especially his fantastic knowledge of real estate in ACT area and excellent interpersonal skill are highly appreciated and recommended.

We were very pleased with Andrew's work. He did an excellent job in very difficult circumstances. We valued his sage advice, professionalism and unfailing enthusiasm for what he was doing. He always took great care to report to us after each showing so we knew where we stood in the marketing process.
Once the parameters were agreed, Andrew provided excellent advice on the most effective marketing strategy. I left everything in his hands, and he kept me regularly appraised once the property hit the market. Even though the market was challenging, Andrew secured several expressions of interest in a short period of time and one of these proceeded to exchange.
Real estate agents work in an amorphous environment affected by many variables beyond control. The agent has to steer a path through this uncertainty to gain the best outcome possible for the seller. We are happy with the way Andrew guided us in this process and are very happy with the result achieved.
As it had been over 35 years since we had sold a home we entered the process with some trepidation. However we need not have worried from the moment we engaged the services of Andrew Lonsdale. Andrew was very confident from the outset that we would get a good outcome even though we were selling during challenging times because of the Covid-19 Pandemic. This was where his vast experience came to the fore. He quickly adapted to the changing circumstances of selling a home during this period having to adhere to very strict health and safety procedures. Andrew spoke to us regularly and provided excellent feedback. He is a very caring person, is very customer-focused and has a very warm and likeable personality. We would not hesitate in recommending Andrew to future sellers.
From the outset we were very impressed with Andrew's knowledge and his advice about how to prepare our home for sale and then the marketing campaign. It made it an easy decision to select Andrew from the other agents we also considered. Throughout the campaign, Andrew kept us regularly updated both in terms of potential buyer feedback and changes in the selling strategy due to the COVD -19. We have bought and sold many properties over the years but had never experienced anything close to Andrew’s level of passion and commitment - he truly became immersed in sale which we have no doubt helped us achieve the sale price. We are already recommending Andrew to others.
Andrew provided excellent advice during a very uncertain tme and negotiated a great price for us within a few days of our first open home. He and his team were great, and we would highly recommend them if you are selling in the belconnen area.
