I found Darren to be refreshingly engaging and honest. He was a standout to me with his experience and knowledge of the local Real Estate market. But it was his negotiating skills that were most impressive! Most of these young agents have No Idea how to negotiate. Just get a deal done. And I was a difficult Vendor (sorry Darren). We had numerous offers with various conditions and we had already committed, so it was a very stressful time. Darren handled the situation so professionally, gently guiding me whilst he dealt with the buyers. The negotiating process with the successful buyer went on for a week until we reached an agreement. And the final result was a happy buyer and seller. The Art of the Deal! Great job Darren thank you so much Leanne ....

Darren was fantastic to work with throughout the entire process. He was an excellent communicator, always keeping us informed and making everything feel easy. His professionalism, honesty, and willingness to help were outstanding, and nothing was ever too much trouble. We highly recommend Darren to anyone looking for a knowledgeable and dedicated real estate agent. Thank you for all your help!

We loved working with Darren on our recent sale. Darren was excellent at communicating every step of the way and passionate about getting us a good result. Nothing was too much to ask and his support through the highs and lows of selling was so appreciated, he practically became part of the family. We would recommend Darren and his team and we’re grateful for his service.

We used Harcourts to both act as agents and then sell our investment property at erina . We found Cherie (managing rentals) and Darren to be honest , highly professional and efficient while being very approachable and quick to respond to any queries we had . ie we were always kept in the loop with any tenant questions and Darren kept us informed along each step of the sale without being a nuisance . Most importantly i found their commission unbeatable . The day we need another real estate agent i’ll be going straight to these guys a little gem in what is reputedly a fairly unscrupulous industry . To the team at Harcourts thankyou very much , it was a pleasure and a stress free experience dealing with you , keep ip the great work .

After consulting multiple agents in the East Gosford area, Darren was the clear stand out from the get go. He was down to earth and realistic in his estimate for our home, and he took the time to understand our investment and the love put into it. He put in an incredible amount of effort running open homes (even during public holidays without question or complaint), helped us make informed choices, and had our house sold within a fortnight - achieving an excellent result for us. Throughout the entire process he was honest, enthusiastic and kept us in the loop. We would highly recommend Darren and the Harcourt’s crew to anyone in the area wanting to sell/buy.

Bought my first apartment through Darren and honestly couldn’t have asked for a smoother experience. As a first home buyer he was extremely hands on and guided me well beyond what I expected. His communication was absolutely top tier. Darren was always responsive, clear, and keeping me in the loop the entire way. Absolute top bloke, definitely recommended.

Darren helped me buy and sell my property and as my original review, he stands as a 5-star agent. He has gone above and beyond ensuring consistent and quality communication, is extremely knowledgeable about the area, always available for questions and clarity, has been extremely mindful and empathetic to my situation, and has the best interest at heart - both for a buyer and a seller. Can’t fault him for anything - highly recommend!!

Darren is very down to earth man. He helped us from beginning to end very clear communication. Happy with his customer service, deserves five star and we will be in touch in the future. Thank you Darren and Sapna again

Darren was an excellent agent nothing was ever an issue, his communication was outstanding and overall he was very professional

I have to say that Darren from Harcourts Erina was the most friendly, knowledgeable and honest Estate Agent I have come across. He was so compassionate with my recent bereavement which meant so much. I totally trusted him with the sale of the house. His communication was excellent and he got us a great price at the end of the day - a consummate professional whom I would not hesitate to recommend to any future clients. Five stars!

I had a great experience purchasing my property from Darren McGowan at Harcourts. Darren was knowledgeable, approachable, and always quick to respond to any questions I had. His professionalism, attention to detail, and genuine commitment to helping me secure the right property really stood out. I would happily recommend him to anyone looking to buy or sell.

Punctual obliging polite
