We give 5 stars to the team at Mcdonald and Upton who have been amazing, a special thanks to Rhys who has helped us find the property we were looking for. Rhys listened to everything we said he knows the area well, his communication allowed us to be in the best position to find the right home. He is very respectful & responsive. We met many other agents in area in the buying process, but can definitely confirm Rhys was the person who stood out. Thank you Rhys for all that you did.

Selling a family home can be quite traumatic and complicated, but Rhys took the sting out of everything. He communicated regularly, providing updates & questions from potential buyers about the property. He has a lot of local knowledge and was able to tell us how our listing was going in comparison to other properties on the market. Rhys is a genuine and trustworthy guy, who achieved a great outcome on Auction day. I highly recommend him & would definitely chose him again to sell our property.

Rhys was amazing to work with - his professionalism, communication and honesty was on point. Thank you Rhys for the dedication and hard work to secure a great price at Auction

Rhys displayed a strong knowledge of the local market. He was reliable in his dealings with us and responded promptly to questions and communications in general.

I've worked with Rhys on the property purchase for a month, including two weeks when I was away from Australia. He's professional, knowledgeable, flexible and always responsive. I received the updates and signed the contract while I was still away, thanks to his clear communication and hard work.

Rhys and his team went above and beyond great working relationships

Proactive and always kept myself informed from start to finish.

We had a great experience buying our property through Rhys. He was very transparent and responsive. We appreciated his genuineness as first home buyers, new to the process of purchasing a home.

We sold our low value property in a difficult market in MLB, but we were left with the thought that Rhys left nothing on the table. We were really happy with the result.

We reached out to Rhys after years with using McDonald Upton as our rental company, so we decided go with them to sell our property. The whole experience with Rhys has been exceptional. Rhys has made this whole process seamless, from organising trades people to staging and finally the sale of our property. We cannot thank Rhys enough, he truely is amazing in all aspects, we highly recommend Rhys if your thinking of selling , as he goes above and beyond.

McDonald Upton recently helped us with the sale of my mother's Essendon home, a home that had been in the family for almost seventy years. Our initial meeting was with Paul McDonald. He wasn't the only agent approached. Like most of the others interviewed, he showed a professional enthusiasm for the task and a keen understanding of Essendon's Real Estate climate. Unlike the others, his approach was low key, straightforward and for want of a better word, honest. Akin to a trusted family retainer. In other circumstances you'd be happy to call him friend. As the campaign progressed we were continually kept in the loop and it was clear that he, Rhys and the team behind them were hard at it. This was borne out when, on the day of the auction, half of Melbourne turned out for the event. The result was very satisfactory, both for ourselves and, I believe, for the purchaser. Smiles all around. And it must be said Rhys Afford is a very smart young man, he having chosen such an astute mentor. Thanks again McDonald Upton. Job well done.

I had the pleasure of working with Rhys Afford from McDonald Upton, and I couldn’t be more satisfied with the experience. From our first meeting to the final closing, Rhys was professional, knowledgeable, and genuinely committed to helping me get the best result. I highly recommend Rhys Afford to anyone looking to buy or sell a home. Their dedication and passion for real estate truly set them apart. Thank you Rhys, for making my real estate journey so enjoyable.
