Over the years we have successfully sold a number of homes. We found Carole to be an outstanding agent the best one we have dealt with. Her communication skills are outstanding. She has an excellent knowledge of the market. There was a lot of interest in our property and her negotiating skills kept a number of parties interested in the property throughout the campaign. This resulted in very strong competition at the auction. We have recommended Carole to a number of friends who are considering selling their homes.

We first came to know Carole McCrea when purchasing our home from her as selling agent some 9 years ago. Carole has been very diligent over the years in maintaining a close relationship with us and keeping us informed of the local market. Carole clearly recognises the importance of long term relationships, built on trust, respect and without short term motivations. Hence it was an easy decision to follow her with her move to McConnell Bourn when seeking a new rental manager and now selling agent. Carole and the entire McConnell team we have interacted with over the past few months have been outstanding. Through the marketing phase, what impressed us about McConnell was the way you felt their whole team was working for you in seeking buyer support and providing regular feedback with update reports and calls. Come auction day (on a Sunday no less), Carole had several colleagues come along to help generate interest and the auctioneer, Vic Lorusso did a superb job in motivating reluctant bidders. Never did we feel pressured or compromised through the process and Carole's relaxed, supportive and professional approach made all the difference in achieving a strong price. McConnell's marketing (online, print etc) are clearly differentiated on the upper North Shore and rival agents we have interacted with at other inspections even acknowledge this. We congratulate Carole and her team on a job well done.

Carole has sold two properties for us over a 4-5 year period and in both cases we sold prior to going to auction at a price that exceeded our expectations...she provided great counsel on both the right timing and the right marketing for each property....she's the best!
