This was my first property purchase and I felt well guided and Stuart was reliable, professional and friendly.

From start to finish, Stuart was active, communicative, clear, on the ball, and thorough. He made the process of selling my property, from abroad, and with many minor issues to take care of, very straightforward. With tough market conditions as a seller, he made sure to follow every lead, kept me appraised throughout the process, and was a pleasure to deal with. I would have no hesitation in recommending Stuart.

Mr Stuart Howard and Mr Stephen O’Sullivan are the best real estate agents in Wollstonecraft. Their professional service for 1/88 Shirley Road, Wollstonecraft is far beyond my expectation. There is no doubt that I would highly recommend both of them as the listing agents for any potential vendors in Wollstonecraft area and Lower North Shore.

We purchased a property prior to auction and found Stuart and Stephen very responsive with all communications and helpful with our enquiries, including an extra inspection request and other requests relating to the contract and settlement. All this contributed to make the negotiation process quick and straightforward to land at an outcome that everyone was happy with!

Thank you Stuart and Stephen for the consideration and courtesy you extended to me during the sales process of 8/7 Belmont Avenue, Wollstonecraft NSW. I am incredibly grateful Stuart I had your experience, patience and guidance to draw upon plus the support of the Marriott Lane team. Every aspect of the sales process was executed exceptionally well. The stylist transformed the space, the marketing provided broad exposure, and you negotiated a great result in challenging conditions. Sincere thanks for everything!

From the moment we made contact with Stuart he impressed us with his ability to communicate and his patience with us until we were actually ready to sell. He kept us informed regularly and answered all our questions. There was no BS and we found him respectful of us and our property. In the end there was only one couple and he got the price we wanted. The auctioneer was great, his offsider and office manager were all a good team. Thank you Stuart. Well done, great job.

Stuart is an expereicned agent and very likeable as a person too. His responses were always timely, he is punctual and he does what he promises to do (some agents are talk only and forget actions). We appreciated his help.

Living interstate and trusting an agent to sell your property is no easy decision. Stuart recently sold my St Leonards apartment and exceeded my sale expectations. His professionalism in dealing with prospective buyers has been outstanding with additional open inspections for new and returned prospective buyers. The selling process from valuation to advertising to listing and sale has been smooth sailing. Stuart is not pushy, easy to communicate, hard working and does not "blow smoke" (so-to-speak) unlike some agents. Thanks Stuart!


Stuart Howard was the agent when I purchased 5/196 West St 12 years ago. Back then I found him honest and easy to deal with. My experience then led me to seek him out again when I decided to sell. He did not disappoint. He was honest, open, diligent and communicative the entire process. His colleague Stephen O'Sullivan was also a pleasure to deal with and had a genuine enthusiasm for the property. As a result of their approach, the auction was a joyful and positive experience for all involved.

Being a first home buyer is a stressful time, but Stuart Howard and his team made our recent purchase of 5/196 West Street, Crows Nest a very enjoyable time for my girlfriend and I. He was able to answer all questions we had at inspection promptly, was quick in his response with vendor liaison and even took the extra time to show us additional features of the property after the official close of open house. Hearing his background and experience in property, including that he made a similar suburb-move to me in his own life made him instantly relatable and gave us confidence in his market knowledge. I have no hesitation in recommending Stuart as an A+ agent on the North Shore.
