Rowan has just helped us purchase an apartment in Killara. We searched for 6 months and met many agents over this time. Rowan is the standout agent in the mid North Shore. He was honest, direct and very helpful. It was actually a relief to meet and deal with Rowan. We have been close to buying other properties in the area but were messed around by other agents. The unit was for our mother and Rowan was empathetic and gentle with his dealings with us. We can not recommend him highly enough.

Rowan was proactive throughout the process. He was open and honest with his appraisal of the market and the expected sale price. In the end, Rowan achieved a higher than expected sale price. If selling again in the Sydney region I would use Rowan again.

Rowan was honest, always available and kept us up to date at all times throughout the campaign. His attention to detail was highly valued. Would not hesitate to highly recommend Rowan.

Last year I found myself in need of funds after having my contract terminated during the downturn in the Oil and Gas sector. The one good thing I did during that time was talk to Rowan Lazar. I was fortunate to own a rental property in Killara, a place I had never set eyes on. Acting as selling agent on my behalf, once the apartment had been vacated, Rowan had the place cleaned, dressed and looking like something out of Vogue magazine. Several offers were received after the one and only open day. Within what only seemed a matter of days, the sale was completed, money was in my account and the pressure was off, for a while anyway. I can only say thank you to Rowan for his professionalism and hard work in bringing about this result in such a timely fashion. I strongly recommend his services and wish him continued success in the future. Once the Oil sector turns, he will be the first person I call.

Rowan supported the recent March 2016 sale of our apartment in Lindfield. He provided considered and valued advice on how to best approach the presentation and marketing for sale of the apartment. Throughout the sale process he communicated status updates very well and we felt he always had our best interests at heart during the offer and negotiation processes. I would use Rowans services again.

Rowan was extremely helpful, efficient and went 'above and beyond' expectations during the process of selling our house.

I could not be more happy with the result of the sale of my investment property in Killara, NSW. I live in Perth and was extremely pleased with the way Rowan assisted me through every step of the sale process. He liaised with the agent managing the property, provided excellent advice in terms of how to present the property and has a very deep knowledge of the North Shore market and the right sale strategy. The home opens were managed very well and he kept in constant contact. The outcome was a sale price far higher than I had expected and it was all concluded in a remarkably short period of time. I would have no hesitation whatsoever in recommending Rowan to anyone wanting to sell a property in the North Shore.

We live in Perth and some time ago, my wife and I purchased a unit in Sydney. Late last year we decided it was time for a sea change and this involved freeing up some capital so the unit was put on the market and we were advised that Rowan would be looking after the sale. Well I've had dealings in property before and was somewhat apprehensive however as it turned out there was no need for any anxiety whatsoever. Rowan kept us fully informed throughout the entire process and on his advice we achieved a higher sale price than we would have if following our own instincts. I can't speak highly enough of Rowan and have no hesitation in recommending him to anyone needing a guiding hand in a property transaction or just simply some advice.

Great quick sale in difficult circumstances

Rowan achieved exceptional result for my property at Killara.The whole process which included advertising the property, home open, dealing with potential clients exceeded my expectations.

Rowan has been a perfect agent throughout the sale process. I have no hesitation in saying he raised my expectation of agents to a new level through his professionalism, strong market knowledge, patience, and honesty. While most agents appear to have a hands-off approach, Rowan was constantly proactive by getting himself involved in the gardening and cleaning of our property, door knocking around the neighborhood as part of the marketing campaign, and meeting me at locations that would have been inconvenient for him. He constantly kept me informed through phone calls, emails and well documented reports so that I would always have a clear understanding of how the marketing campaign was progressing. This helped immensely on auction day as he explained every strategy and possibility relevant to maximise the sale price. Suffice to say, we had a very well attended auction with strong buyer interest and ultimately a fantastic sales result. He was also very personable, friendly and patient throughout the campaign even though I was a difficult person to contact. It has been an absolute pleasure to work with Rowan and the Sothebys team. I will definitely be recommending him to all my colleagues.

Rowan was recommended to us when we wanted to sell our rental property in Sydney. We are so glad we heeded the advice. We live interstate and have never met Rowan but his knowledge of the market, his attention to detail, and his high level of communication meant that we had a very successful sale in 2 weeks of marketing the unit. Rowan made advantageous suggestions about how to maximise our return and then was able to organise tradespeople to carry out repairs and designers to dress the unit. Rowan has our deepest gratitude for guiding us smoothly through a potentially stressful and chaotic time.
