We loved working with Sam. He is such a professional and so knowledgeable. He worked tirelessly to achieve the best outcome for us. He and his team always go above and beyond at all times. He communicated with us after every open for inspection and each time he spoke to prospective purchasers. This is our second time selling with Sam and I highly recommend him for both buying and selling property.

Jeff did a phenomenal job selling our house in Allambie. He was always available to talk, explained the process thoroughly, project managed getting the trades when we moved interstate, and during the auction and negotiations we settled on a price that everyone was very happy with. Would use Jeff again if we were selling a house in the Northern Beaches as he is an expert in the area. Thanks Jeff
Seller of 34 Iris Street, Frenchs Forest
From the moment we met Jeff we felt we’d made the right decision to use Upstate to sell our house. Jeff communicated with us through the whole process and we would highly recommend him to everyone. Thank you Jeff for everything!

Dear Karen, Thank you so much for all your hard work, professionalism, and support throughout the sale process. We're absolutely thrilled with the result (and relieved!), particularly given the challenges of the current market. It has been a pleasure working with such a wonderful team at McGrath - The Forest. Your professionalism, communication, guidance, and dedication made the entire experience as smooth and stress-free as possible, and we truly appreciate everything you did to achieve such a fantastic outcome. Thank you again for all your efforts. We are incredibly grateful and wish you continued success. Warm regards, Kate & Jack
Seller of 13 Kalgal Street, Frenchs Forest
Karen, Stephen, Ashton and the team made our sale easy. Our marketing was done beautifully and they were very helpful and supplying contacts with trades to help us prepare for sale. During the campaign there was plenty of contact and communication as talked us through the steps. Weekly reports, meetings and post inspection phone calls were all done professionally and with full transparency. This team manages to tread the line between professionalism and a personal touch. We were fully informed about buyers every step of the way and their advice was perfect throughout the campaign. They know the market. They know how to sell a house and they know how to manage their vendors. I would highly recommend them and would happily use them again.
