Simone was an absolute pleasure to work with prior to the campaign, during and after the very successful auction of our home in Essendon. The whole process was dealt with great professionalism and attention to detail without being pushy and intense Every step we were informed of, including private inspections, open house times, knowledge of the area, our expectations of prices and the particular potential buyer profiles We would certainly engage Simone for any other property purchases or sales and highly recommend her as an estate agent for anyone interested in this area

Simone did a wonderful job in selling our property during a tough market. Even when the market seemed unpredictable, she was able to adapt our campaign to ensure interest in the property which resulted in the right sale. We were very impressed with the effort she put into the sale of the property, and we were always kept informed with such personalised attention. Simone, thank you for putting us at ease during the entire process and we can’t recommend you enough!

Simone was professional, experienced and made the process very easy with a great result!

Selling in a market where interest rates are rising, and generally difficult economic conditions exist is not easy. Simon did a great job, and his team supported every aspect of the sale. When Simon was on leave, he kept calling to update even though he deserves a break like everybody else. At crucial times like the day of the auction Simon had the support of a number of staff from his office. When it was time to conclude the private sale as the property did not sell on auction day, again another member of the team made contact and sorted all that was needed. Professional, available and team orientated. A great working environment for me as the person selling my parents' home. Thanks to Simon and his team.

We want to thank Simone and the team at McDonald Upton, they all were very professional and made the process very easy. From the sale strategy advice, advertising and open homes Simone kept us fully informed and up to date throughout the process and we would highly recommend Simone to anyone wishing to sell a property!

Simone was professional and hard working throughout the sales campaign for our apartment. We appreciated her responsiveness in a timely manner - whilst showing flexibility and agility where required. Importantly, she was willing to listen to client input, was readily available and easy to contact. Simone demonstrated a genuine interest in achieving the best result for the client. Overall, she was affable, caring and friendly. Highly recommended.

Kept us informed of interest in property. Required weekend site visits including Sundays. Advised us on progress in negotiating sale price. We are satisfied with the outcome and would recommend to others interested in property purchase, sale or renting.

Simone was truly exceptional when it came to negotiating the purchase of this property. We were always kept abreast of the situation and critically even when there was no news, Simone was mindful to inform us, which when buying is often so important... and no doubt for the vendor, ensuring the buyers are taken care of would provide great peace of mind. There was a level of care few agents take, and for that we are forever grateful. For both buyers and sellers, we have no hesitation in giving Simone the highest of recommendations.

Simone was a pleasure to work with on our recent sale. She helped build a very successful campaign, with an impressive 85 groups viewing our home. Simone ensured professionalism and punctuation throughout, whilst maintaining great communication with potential buyers. Her attention to detail was appreciated. She is knowledgeable and provided guidance every step of the way! She exuded style when presenting our home and made our experience a delight. Our home sold for a remarkable price and we feel using a boutique agency attributed to this. We would highly recommend Simone and will be using her services again in the future.

Choosing an agent to sell my property was a daunting task, with a multitude to choose from within my area. I'm so glad I chose Simone. She really went beyond my expectations, working tirelessly and with high levels of confidence and knowledge to achieve an excellent result. She consistently kept me updated on any and all progress made, even outside work hours and didn't lose any enthusiasm or confidence in selling the property even through the current downturn in the market. She is clearly a highly skilled agent - regardless of market conditions - which I believe is an incredibly important attribute, especially now. I would not hesitate to enlist Simone's help in the future, I'm certain she would have many happy customers who would attest to her brilliant work ethic and she should be very proud of her reputation.

Simone was a fantastic support in the sale campaign highlighting her proven success and experience. To achieve a sale that we were patiently awaiting in a time of the market that became questionable is a testament to her and the team's dedication in ensuring a win for both their Client and Purchaser. Having that support made a stressful negotiation period proceed with ease and success. We appreciate all her hard work, honesty and integrity and would not hesitate in recommending Simone and the whole Team to anyone wanting to deal with this Agency in any facet. Thanks for everything!!
