Simon Cookson Review

Simon Cookson Review

Simon Cookson was professional, reliable and helpful. He kept me in the loop at all times and provided high quality feedback after each and every 'open for inspection'. Simon was also efficient and effective, particularly on the day of the auction where he was able to gain a bid on the house well above the reserve price. I am very happy with my decision to choose Simon as my real estate agent.

Simon was very knowledgeable about the area, was caring and answered all our questions promptly. He understood it was hard to sell our family home and gave us the support that was needed. A very quick sale

It is now 30 years since Simon helped us sell our first house in Essendon and he has once again sold our house. His longevity is testament to his integrity in the realestate industry.

Simon was recommended to me by a friend and certainly lived up to her praise. As the campaign was halfway through when halted by the coronavirus, I was not confident a good sale would be achieved in this climate. Simon, however, worked on keeping me thoroughly informed of progress. This culminated in my receiving a very good sale despite having to cancel the auction. Simon was professional with excellent market knowledge, and I have no hesitation in recommending him along with the friendly staff of McDonald Upton.

Simon was excellent and on the spot in his appraisal.

Simon was professional, honest and provided good feedback through-out the whole process of selling our mother's home. He was there at everyone opening and gave us constant feedback. I would strongly recommend Simon Cookson and Paul McDonald when considering selling your home.

Clear guidance, intimate knowledge of local market and attentive no-nonsense service

Simon came in and assessed the property, advised on its readiness, devised a marketing and auction plan and timeline (always cognisant of potential conflicts eg AFL Grand Final, Melbourne Cup) constantly fedback after each and every open house so that we were always kept in the loop and able to make decisions based on his reliable and realistic advice.The final exceeded our expectations and reflected Simon's canny assessment of the prevailing market not to mention his sterling abilities as an auctioneer.
