"I recently sold my house through Simon Exleton for a price achieved at the top end of our range at auction. My wife and I were very satisfied with the result and Simon's overall professionalism. At each stage through the selling process, Simon was focused, committed and invested significant energy to help us achieve our objective. He provided clear guidance and insight into the presentation of the property which proved invaluable. We were also impressed with his unflinching self confidence and determination to get results. I have no hesitation or doubt in recommending Simon as an agent and we will be utilising his services again in the future."

"Simon, you're one of Sydney's best agents! Congratulations again and have a well earned great weekend."

Fran Pearson

"We chose Simon Exleton to sell our house after we bought it through him 6 years earlier. The standard of attention, care and detail that both Simon and his assistant gave to the sale of our house was faultless. Simon is very honest, positive and happy to offer any advice we needed to give our property the best sale price possible. Simon was contactable at all times with any questions we had and talked us through everything ahead of time so that we would always be prepared. Simon and his assistant are very likeable and genuine as people so always an absolute pleasure to deal with. At the end of the day we sold our house for a great price at auction and were very happy with the whole 'selling' experience which to be honest was something we were dreading having to go through. Thank you Simon."

Debbie and Mark Sampson

"I recently listed my property with Simon Exleton. Other agents said maximum $720k. Simon said he could get more. He sold the property for $780k in less than a week. Simon’s service was amazing. He was in constant contact and took care of everything. I have already recommended Simon to a couple of friends thinking of selling in the Eastern Suburbs. I was very happy with the service I received from Simon. He is young and energetic. Simon has the “hunger” you rarely see."
 

Martha Ryan

"Dear Simon, I’d like to thank you for your endless good humour (not to mention your good advice) in the protracted sale of my flat. Everything you suggested we should do in preparation to sell it was spot on and the result you achieved was well beyond anything I had imagined. Above all, you minimised the stress levels associated with buying and selling, so again, many thanks!"

Alex – Bondi Beach

"Simon, A quick note to thank you for your great work in selling our property. Marguerite and I are happy with the result and impressed with the McGrath organisation. You will be the first person we call the next time we are looking to sell a property."
Geoff Apps

"I'd like to thank you and your team, on behalf of my brother and myself, for the tremendous job that you did and the result that you achieved when selling our father's house. We consider that you performed your role impeccably. I'd like to highlight some examples. You always delivered on your promises. Never late, always returned calls as soon as practically possible.
We still can't work out when and if you actually have a day off! You gave the impression that we were your only client, although we knew for a fact you were extremely busy. You went above and beyond your duties in organising and supervising tradespeople, saving us time and a great deal of stress. You proposed a clear and well defined strategy towards selling the property. We took your advice 100%, and it paid dividends in the result. It was extremely satisfying to be the vendor at an auction that goes into a bidding war! We are well aware that the end result was achieved by close teamwork, and we would like to extend our thanks to your assistant for the huge amount of work she did dealing with the amazing amount of interest the marketing campaign generated. I would recommend your services to anyone buying or selling in the area, and also McGrath in general. The McGrath website is excellent. The McGrath advert for the property was always in the top 20 of every relevant property website in Sydney. We think that this combined with the McGrath magazine, your prominence in the Wentworth courier, and McGrath's reputation in the area helped to culminate in an Auction that had the largest number of bidders possible. Once again, thanks to all of you . We will certainly be talking again if the opportunity arises."

 

Elizabeth Glancey - Vaucluse 

"Helen and I were very pleased with your professionalism and honesty during the selling campaign. Your continual updates and market feedback were very reassuring. We will highly recommend you and will definitely use your services again.” Julian Lenthall – Tamarama

 "Simon you are amazing and lived up to and even surpassed your reputation. Wonderful news. Much needed. Thank you. We will be so happy to work with you again, its so good to be able to have trust and to build up a good relationship with new people."  

Flavia Vogrig and Robert Gassel

"We are thoroughly impressed with the service provided by our agents Simon and Bindi in the sale of our home last year.
From our initial meeting and throughout the entire process we felt extremely secure in allowing them to guide our sale and provide advice. They demonstrated a fine blend of experience and confidence with friendliness and an understanding of our needs. We would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending this team to anyone and indeed would enlist their services again ourselves. We also feel that their calm and welcoming approach with prospective buyers whilst demonstrating a high level of experience and professionalism was fundamental in the huge success we achieved with our sale and we thank them."
Anthea Thomas & David Thebridge 

"We found Simon Exleton to be an ideal agent in the sale of our house, which sold substantially above the reserve.  His approach to marketing was highly skilled, professional and intelligent and his manner was at all times pleasant, approachable and confident. He worked very hard and kept us fully informed at every stage of the process. Nothing was ever slapdash or rushed or less than perfectly done. We greatly appreciate the work he did for us and we highly recommend him".
 

Patricia Loughlan & Jonathan Gillis

“We liked Simon as soon as we met him. He came to our home, had a good look at the property, listened to our explanation of features and asked intelligent questions. Simon attended each of the open-house inspections as well as private viewings. He was always early and relaxed with prospective buyers. Simon cared about our personal business and we felt he was in control of the sale at all times. Simon was recommended to us by friends who had recently sold their property through him and we certainly will be happy to support this recommendation to others”.
 

Patricia & Michael Wade

"Just wanted to say thanks for your help and for your patience. May I add that I am very impressed with your professionalism, if I have another property to sell in Eastern suburbs I would certainly use you and recommend you to my contacts".

Vera

“Simon has proven himself to be in an elite category of real estate agents, his diligent work ethic and attention to detail allow him the ability to achieve outstanding results for his clients. I have no hesitation in recommending Simon to represent potential buyers or sellers.”
