John McManus, Brooke Listberger and the McManus team were the best partners we could have wished for when we sold our home at 17 Burra Road, Artarmon in June 2022. They have deep knowledge of the local market and John was able to leverage that along with a wealth of technical experience to deal with each scenario that arose during our campaign. It was a strange time to be selling our home and we were grateful to have their knowledge, experience, wisdom and calm energy. They achieved an excellent result in a challenging market and they were a pleasure to work with. Every interaction with the McManus Group was highly professional. Each person in the team paid enormous attention to detail and they were all warm, supportive, flexible and accommodating of our needs throughout the sales process. Their campaign updates were clear and comprehensive. We always knew where we stood and always trusted that we were getting the best advice. We were grateful to have John and Brooke in our corner and would recommend them as a stand-out agents. We have bought and sold a number of properties over the years and this has been by far our best experience with any agent. They are rare gems.

We found John and his team to be the utmost professionals. The team helped prepare the house for each open and John kept us informed every step of the way. We felt John didn’t sugar coat the situation in the market and he was straight up. We would highly recommend him and his team

John is a consummate professional and a pleasure to deal with. His reputation as the preeminent agent in Artarmon/Willoughby is well deserved. His well-oiled team took care of every step of the process for us. John was realistic when estimating the market and where our house sat in it. During the campaign John was in regular contact, keeping us well informed of interest levels and price point. I can’t recommend John and his team more highly. I would be happy for John to give any potential vendor my phone number if they would like me to corroborate these comments.

Best in the are the area. Wouldn’t use anyone else

John and his team provided a extremely professional service and we would certainly recommend him

John was professional accessible and down to earth 100%. There was no BS.

John McManus was very easy to deal with and he does know the Artarmon market inside out. He was incredibly thorough and called daily with updates. When it came time to make the sale, we felt well informed and able to choose the right course of action with confidence. John's support team are well organised and provide very prompt support that made the whole experience very smooth.

We are long term residents of Artarmon and have known John for many of them so we looked to him when we decided to sell our home. We weren’t disappointed. John and his team made a potentially stressful situation run seamlessly. In fact our confidence in John and his team, their professional approach and friendly manner allowed us to head down to Melbourne for the greater part of the sales process. We were kept informed of how the sale was progressing and were delighted to receive an acceptable offer two days before auction date.

John recently sold a beautiful 110 years old house to our family, just as the interest rate increased and bad financial news were everywhere. The Vendors were quite stressed about how it would impact the sale. It was a difficult negotiation process but what stood out was how caring he was for his clients. Without going into the details, I thought this was what impressed me the most. He also have a very good team with him, many thanks for all the extra inspections.

John presented as an agent with an accurate and extensive knowledge of the present market in our area. He communicated his knowledge to us in a clear, honest and easy manner. Our questions were answered patiently and clearly. It was clear that John did not have to "sell" himself in any way. We interviewed four different agents before selecting McGrath, Willoughby. John's easy friendly manner extended to showing a genuine interest in us, our situation and even in our interest and hobbies! As the selling process progressed, we were constantly informed personally by John about details of the interest shown in our property. It was clear to see that the price range suggested by John for the sale was realistic and achievable. We were delighted to be offered a price commensurate with our expectations. We are delighted that John was there as our agent to take us through the sometimes emotional journey of selling Mum's house. He saw us through the process with calmness, kindness and humour.

From our first meeting John was always upfront and honest. His knowledge and experience in the market came to the for as I was selling my house amid changing market conditions and I valued his openness and suggestions that proved successful with the sale of my property at Auction. John and his team are professional yet friendly and always available. A great team to have selling my house!

We were very satisfied with John and the team at McGrath. They made our selling experience a very seamless one from start to finish keeping us well informed along the way. I highly recommend John, Brooke and the team.
