About Scott

About Me As a born and bred Novocastrian, I’m proud to call Newcastle home and am passionate about everything this incredible region has to offer. I’ve spent my entire life in the local area, and when I’m not working, you’ll find me enjoying time with family and friends or out on the field playing cricket, soccer, or a round of golf. I’m a licensed real estate agent and part-owner at Elders, bringing a strong commitment to both my clients and the business. Before joining Elders, I dedicated over 20 years to the property industry through a career in architecture, working with one of Newcastle’s leading international firms. This background has given me a deep understanding of both residential and commercial property, enabling me to provide informed advice, whether you're discussing design ideas or navigating a sale. Throughout my career, I’ve worked closely with local councils, project managers, builders, consultants, and suppliers to deliver the best possible outcomes for clients. My extensive property knowledge means you can have complete confidence you're receiving sound, reliable guidance tailored to your needs. I’m genuinely excited about the opportunity to build lasting relationships based on trust, transparency, and clear communication. If you're looking for someone who truly understands what they’re selling, and who knows Newcastle inside and out, please don’t hesitate to get in touch.

Great Agent

We recently purchased our property with Scott. He was very friendly, approachable and communicative throughout the whole process. As a first home buyer Scott made the whole process very easy. Would highly recommend!

Extremely easy to deal with and responsive

I dealt with Scott on the purchase of my property. He was very knowledgeable of the area and the property being sold. He arranged a private inspection for me as I had limited time which I really appreciated. He was just very easy to deal with and always very responsive to texts and emails.

Scott is responsive to questions and communicates in a timely manner. As buyers I felt the process was very smooth. We appreciated that Scott wasn’t a high pressure salesman.

Friendly, honest, professional Real Estate Agent with great knowledge of this business

Selling my home was a much smoother and quicker process than I ever expected, thanks to my real estate agent, Scott Richardson. From the very beginning, he was incredibly knowledgeable and took the time to explain every step of the process in a way that was easy to understand. He was always patient, happy to answer my questions, and made sure I felt comfortable with every decision. I really appreciated that he kept me informed throughout the entire sale, with regular updates and honest advice. Every important decision was discussed with me, and I always felt like my opinions were valued. Most importantly, he sold my house very quickly while achieving a fantastic result. Scott's professionalism, communication, and expertise gave me complete confidence from start to finish. I would highly recommend Scott to anyone looking to buy or sell a home. Thank you for making what could have been a stressful experience such a positive one!

Old-school service, honest advice and excellent communication

In a world where so many agents seem more interested in winning your listing than helping you buy, Scott was a breath of fresh air. Every time we met him at an open home, his focus was on the house we were there to see - not on trying to convince us to sell our own. As buyers, that was incredibly refreshing. Other agents barely took the time to tell us about the property before launching into how they could sell our house. Scott never did that. Instead, he knew the property inside and out and took the time to answer our questions. It actually made me think, that's exactly the kind of person I'd want selling my own home. As a Newcastle local, Scott has a genuine knowledge of the area and it shows. He's old school in all the right ways - reliable, approachable and honest. He doesn't pressure you, chase you or make you feel like you're being "sold to". He's confident in what he does, and because of that, he lets the property speak for itself. Communication was excellent throughout. If Scott says he'll get back to you, he does. He always replied to our emails and messages promptly, so we were never left wondering where things stood. Above all, Scott is simply a kind person. Buying a home can be stressful, but having someone genuine, professional and easy to deal with made the experience so much easier. Whether you're buying or selling, I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him.

Excellent communication with genuine care

I have had the pleasure of working with Scott on both sides of realestate. I bought my house from Scott and I have recently sold through Scott. Both times Scott presented as truly genuine. He wasn’t looking just for a sale. He wanted to know what motivated the sale and how best to navigate it. His communication was exceptional and he explained all steps of the process. I would definitely Scott again if required.
