"As executor I had to find an agent to sell the property. On the first meeting with Rob and Matt It was very clear to us that they were the best choice. The service and support that I received from Matthew was fantastic. He responded very quickly to every email, phone, text and phone message that I left as was always keeping me informed on all of the open homes, the public interest. He was very professional, helpful, honest and an extremely patient man. Nothing was ever too much trouble. Matthew got a great result for us all and I will always be forever grateful. I would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Matthew McCarthy to sell your house. Kind regards, Steve Schultz"

The Agent who handled most the viewings, follow-ups and final negotiations of the sale was Matthew McCarthy. I would like to give credit to Matthew for his persistence and reassurance through this process. I very much appreciated Matthew's consistency and confidence throughout and his efforts in ultimately securing the sought after outcome and his professionalism and support were much welcomed".
