I recently purchased for the first time and was very lucky to have Andy and Belinda guide me through the challenging process of securing the property promptly. His experience and knowledge ensured that the transaction was smooth and finalised with a minimum of stress. I would happily recommend Andy and his team to anyone looking to buy or sell in today's competitive market.

In my life I have only needed to deal with a few real estate agents and unfortunately I have found the experience less than memorable. I know, it's a sad statement but my previous experiences were on the highly stressful side. Most recently I have had the pleasure to sell my residence through Stone Real Estate Turramurra and the Andy Howden team has caused me to rethink my position. Great personalities, highly professional and ethical - a very rare set of qualities in real estate agents I have previously met. Andy’s team provided sound and practical advice and went out of their way to help prepare my residence for sale. Andy kept me updated every step of the way and provided views I would not have thought. I cannot speak highly enough of Andy and his team. I did sell my residence and was very happy with the outcome. Thanks Andy and Stone Real Estate Turramurra... A great team

In dealing with Andy Howden on our recent home purchase we found him to be exceptionally courteous and professional. He and his associate, Belinda Edwards, acted in the best interests of their vendor client, and at the same time afforded us the respect that genuine potential buyers should receive. They communicated effectively and responded promptly, displaying honesty and integrity in the conduct of our negotiations. We are very contented purchasers.

Andy was very friendly, honest and upfront with us from the start. He was very transparent and there was no funny business which I had previously experienced a lot of from other agents encountered. Happily rate Andy as the best agent I encountered on my search to find my first property.

Andy & his offsider, Belinda have been in a great partnership with us to sell our Father's home. We had a tight window of opportunity to prepare the house for sale & Andy & Belinda helped us with everything from organising painters, gardeners & cleaners, through organising outdoor cushions and a vase of flowers for the Open Homes. We have been in constant communication all the way in all aspects of the selling/buying process & we hold them both in the highest regard of integrity and exceptional customer service. We achieved a great result for our Father, having sold the house quickly and for a fantastic price.

My wife and I are only too happy to recommend Andy and his colleague Belinda Edwards to anyone thinking about selling their residence. He was extremely professional during the whole sales process and outlined in detail the steps we would follow going down the auction process, what we needed to do to enhance the presentation of our residence, and was very knowledgeable about what was happening in the market in our area. He put his best negotiation skills to work and managed to sell our residence within three days of our first open for inspection for a price that both ourselves and our purchasers were happy with so one could not ask for more. Andy and Belinda were most helpful in presenting our residence in its best light and also arranged pest, pool and building inspections via the one company to make the sales process that more seamless. We are extremely happy vendors and are only too happy to provide personal endorsement of Andy and his company McConnell Bourn.

Andy was knowledgeable, professional and a pleasure to deal with. Highly recommended.

Andy with Belinda Edwards provided exceptional service and communication throughout our campaign to sell our home. Both extremely helpful and easy to get along with and most importantly bringing a sense of humour which is often required in these sometimes stressful situations. The whole process went extremely smoothly with a fantastic outcome. I have no hesitation in recommending MB.

Andy is an excellent agent who, with Belinda, sold our home for a much higher price than we had orginally expected. My family and I knew little English and he was always there to help communication. He was always very patient and kind with us. Andy is also very aware of the market. He gave us excellent advice in regards to selling our home. We couldn't have done it without him.

What really counts with Andy, and McConnell Bourn overall, is that you know you can trust the process. They are the local market experts, and ran a thorough and appropriate process to sell our home. Ultimately we'd have liked a bit more money - who wouldn't - but at the end of the day we achieved the sale, and we knew, with clear communication throughout, who our buyers were and what our decision options were. Sell prior, go to auction, or hold onto the property for another time. The key is that we knew we were making the right decision for our property and the market at that time. We were fully informed. And we knew we were fully informed. That is key. Andy will set your expectations upfront, keep you updated, work hard for you, and find a buyer which gives you the choice to sell.

We recently sold our house in Wahroonga after 15 years in the area, and we were very pleased with the service provided and the auction result delivered by Andy Howden, Belinda Edwards and the McConnell Bourn team. The communication and planning was excellent, there were no issues along the way, and we developed a high degree of confidence in their capability. I would certainly recommend Andy and his professional team to other vendors in the area.

Andy Howden is a standout in his field. He and his team handled the sale of our home & acquisition of our new property with great acumen, finesse, effective communication and an absolute results-orientated approach. The results exceeded expectations, with the process being diligently and skilfully handled. Our recent sale and purchase highlighted what a complex endeavour it really is to sell a family home and buy another within a short space of time- it is more than a transaction. Andy really understands this and his service, expertise and strong history of results reflects this approach.
