Testimonials
"We interviewed a number of agents before deciding to go with mcconnellbourn. What set you apart was (a) a detailed knowledge of the market and an appreciation of our property (b) a clear team approach, (c) a powerful internet marketing advantage, and (d) a high level of professionalism. For us the choice was obvious. "
"A few words to confirm our discussions regarding the sale of our property at Roseville. We were very impressed with all of your staff for their efficiency, politeness and professionalism. At no stage did it appear a problem in handling any enquiries, but more importantly everything was done with a high degree of competence. You and your staff are to be congratulated on maintaining a standard that unfortunately is often missing in the frantic face of the world today. Our thanks for the successful promotion and sale of our house. We have already recommened the use of your services to a couple of friends."
"We are writing to congratulate you and your collegues for the way you conducted the successful sale of our property. It was going to be a difficult sale, main road and perceived traffic noise, but you put up a realistic sales plan and a valuation which we liked and eventually proved to be pretty correct. At all times you had yourself and one other sales person attending the inspections. The team greeted the visitors respectfully and always gave us a quick summary of their reactions. Copy writing for advertisements was imaginative and you did not hesitate to change the copy as needed. Your initial plan for promoting the sale was well thought out and allowed for variation and your sales team had a correct view of the profile of an eventual buyer."
"Since 1978 I had bought and sold my various North Shore residences through other estate agents with varying results, until I discovered mcconnellbourn. Never before did any selling agent work so well to maximise the price I recieved. Never before did any selling agent dive such workable advice in preparing the property for sale. Never before did any selling agent manage "difficult" enquirers so effectively. This time, mcconnellbourn set the standard with polite servise, marketing professionalism, persistence in tuning the presentation of my unusual property and a complete team of helpful stadd who did everything necessary while demonstrating reciprocal trust. You well diserve your firm''s success and I shall gladly spread the work about mcconnellbourn''s impeccable performance."
"I would also like to thank Steven Kourdis, he was always very professional and approachable. I appreciate particularly his honesty in giving us the facts at all times during the sales cycle. I have never before found a real estate agent that I could truly trust before dealing with Steve."
"We were happily accomodated, considering our own separation from the local scene. Your advice and guidance in the conduct of our auction was appreciated. You were readily available at all times and kept us informed at all times with the conduct of the auction, and the proceeding promotion. We felt we were in good hands. Thank you for your professionalism. We do not think we could have achieved any better result from any other agent."
"As you know, we selected mcconnellbourn to act as our estate agent due to your more innovative ideas in marketing and demonstrable experience in selling home in the area similiar to ours (in a bushland setting but with very difficult access). The result you achieved exceeded our wildest expectations. We had anticipated that it would take between three to six months to sell the house due to its difficult access, but you achieved the sale in five days, at a price well in excess of the range we thought possible! We firmly believe this result was brought about by your superior marketing (both quality of presentation and range of delivery methods to the market), depth of experience and the hardwork of the whole mcconnellbourn team. The results from the first (and only) open house were a testament to that - 40 parties arriving to inspect & twenty-eight being so interested they made the trek down to the house. The mcconnellbourn approach is professional, high quality, prompt, easily accessible with open and honest communication, but not over-bearing. We found you and the mcconnellbourn team a pleasure to deal with."

"With 20 years experience in financial services, I am very conscious of the need to maintain the highest level of service before, during & after such an important transaction as the sale or purchase of a property. Knowledge & enthusiasm are necessary, but only part of a professional service. In an industry wracked with conflicts of interest, mcconnellbourn sets a wonderful standard for high quality personal service."
