Richard was an absolute life saver, he helped us sell our property quickly (under 2 weeks on the market!) and for a great price. The whole process was smooth and he took care of everything - he really showed an exceptional level of care for all the details and checked in with us often to give us progress updates. He was always easy to reach and so friendly. Richard has a wealth of knowledge and experience. He gave us solid advice every step of the way.

This was my first time selling a property and I was a little nervous about the process. On top of that I had a family emergency during the campaign and wasn't able to give it my full attention. Richard made me feel like he was totally in control of the situation, he gave me solid advice about how to best approach the sale and talked me through each step of the way. Every time I had a question I picked up the phone and we had a good chat and he was able to put any worries I had to rest. He always made time to explain things thoroughly, I really felt like he knew what he was talking about - he's clearly experienced and has a wealth of knowledge, particularly about real estate on the Northern Beaches. He's approachable and trustworthy and just a really nice guy. I was really happy with the outcome and the whole process was stress free. THANK YOU Richard!

I am writing to commend Richard for all the skill, hard work, and commitment that he showed in obtaining an excellent result in the sale of my house. Richard went above and beyond in providing me ongoing support and updates and I particularly appreciated his regular consultation and feedback as the situation developed. Minee was not an easy property to sell at an acceptable price and he did a great job. I would highly recommend Richards services to anyone thinking of selling their property, particular if it is a bit unusual, as he is able to think "outside the box" and focus on what it has to offer, not just what it lacks. I would certainly use his services again and wish him well in the future.

I decided to sell my apartment. Which agent? I had 3 to choose from. I chose Richard, middle aged, straightforward and open. Off we went. He explained the process. I have not sold a place on my own before. Richard made sure I did not have unreal expectations about price. My son Tim was helping me and Richard helped him clear out the garage and tidy up the place to make it presentable. No stylist was needed! From the time the sale was advertised many enquiries ensued. Offers began. Each time Richard would explain the offer and advise about reaction. His experience of the business became evident. The whole process was exciting and Richard consulted about each decision and explained his reasons. The result exceeded my expectations and was the result of Richard’s guidance, skill and experience.

My husband and I had the pleasure of working with Richard McDonagh from McGrath Estate Manly to sell our house in Narraweena. We currently live interstate and Richard made the process of selling very smooth. Richard was extremely informative with daily updated on the sale ensuring we were involved the whole way. Richard took our concerns and goals into consideration when obtaining the right buyer and price for our property. I highly recommend Richard to anyone wanting that personal touch with a realtor. We are extemely happy with the outcome and how Richard managed our sale.

As a first time property sellers we were referred to Richard. We found Richard to be so professional and honest with us throughout the whole process. We never felt pressured or hurried. He kept us up to date and kept in constant contact as he guided us with patients and kindness through the sale from the very first step to the final settlement. No question or request was left unattended and always attended to immediately. Using his extensive experience in real estate and client database Richard sold our house in just six days after hosting massive amounts of groups through the house at two open house viewings. After securing many offers he sold our house for $315,000 over our asking price. He got such an excellent result In such a short time making this process so easy and manageable. I would be more than happy to provide anyone with a reference for Richard, or chat further about our amazing experience with him. Anyone using Richard as their agent should feel they have chosen the best in the industry.

We were anxious about selling in a very fluid market due to Covid-19. We decided to engage Richard McDonaugh and Angus White as our sales agents as they demonstrated surety and honesty, in a tricky market environment. We felt every confidence in their decisions and strategy at each step to sale. We sold prior to auction, very happy with the result achieved by Richard. I could not recommend this team highly enough - professionalism, passion, integrity and knowledge. They also have a deep understanding of the Manly area, both being long term (and generational!) locals. Meme & Lu.

Richard was very professional. He went above and beyond expectation, from referring excellent tradespeople to organising a stylist. He communicated with us regularly to discuss and update on progress. I highly recommend using Richard from LJ Hooker Balgowlah

Richard was very attentive and informative at every step of our sales process. He was always armed with comparables and gave us a fair and realistic market appraisal before we started. He expertly guided us through the best way to market and advertise the property and then worked with all prospects until he found the right one for us. We needed Richard's active expertise as we are a long distance from our property but he made this all do-able. Richard worked very hard for us for which we are grateful and are happy with our result he helped us achieve. Thanks Richard 😁
