Testimonials
Albert Dessi : Sold In Belconnen
.Andrew Paton sold a 2 br unit in Canberra, finding a buyer within less than a month. His advice to go for an 'offers over' approach was the key. This encouraged reasonable offers because buyers knew they could acquire the property above that price. Once 3 offers were received, Andrew negotiated with them so that there was still a second buyer when the first prospective buyer's finance fell through. He then helped to negotiate some other emerging issues, and kept me informed of progress. The sale price was at the higher end of my expectations. Andrew proved a pleasure to deal with, and his advice was always practical and well explained. I have no reservations about recommending Andrew to other sellers.
Tess and Sean Godkin : Sold in Crace:
Initially I was skeptical at the "fixed commission" structure of Andrew's real estate agency but I was pleasantly surprised. Andrew has a wealth of knowledge on all matters pertaining to real estate and has well developed and thought out selling strategies that were custom designed to suit our need. His market knowledge is complete and well honed; his communication was regular, concise, and clear; his credibility and negotiation skills are unparalleled, case in point is the incredible sale he got for our house. He managed to achieve $15 000 over what we thought we would get. Furthermore it was very clear to us that he actually loves his job and isn't just chasing money or a quick sale. We were very comfortable with Andrew as our RE agent and would not hesitate to recommend or use him again
Zeljko : Sold in Crace:
We would like to highly recommend Andrew Paton to sell your home. We found Andrew to be very professional, he worked extremely hard and he always kept us updated on the “open house” and potential buyers. Andrew guided and helped us all the way to the end. House was “under offer” in two weeks and we sold it for better than we expected.
Thank you Andrew.
Thank you Andrew.
Kerry : First Home Buyer Gordon

Jovan : Sold in Crace

Peter and Rosemary Enge : Sold in Kambah:
Andrew, we would like to express our sincere thanks and gratitude for the skilled and professional approach you brought to selling our house in Kambah recently. Thanks to your advice we found the whole selling process far less stressful than we had imagined it might be, and the end result was much better than we had dared to hope.
On reflection, it seems to us that the EthicsRealEstate approach has several outstanding strengths: clear goals, with their emphasis on ethics and accountability; the helpful structure and information content of your website; your strategic marketing and sales approach; your in-depth knowledge of the Canberra real estate market; your remarkable ability to formulate and efficiently deliver clear, straightforward, no-nonsense advice to both vendor and buyer; last but not least, your personal gift for effectively communicating complex information while avoiding extraneous detail and distractions throughout a very demanding process.
From our initial interview with you right through to showing the buyers around on the day of settlement, we found that you understood our concerns and were easy to talk to. Just two days after our only open house we departed on a five week overseas holiday, but were very comfortable leaving everything in your hands. While we were away you kept us fully informed by email at all times, even going the extra mile for us by obtaining quotes and arranging for bathroom repairs to be made. Within a week you had found a buyer and all but cemented the sale.
Clearly it was an advantage to have one person dealing with our sale and not a team of people, as happens with many of the larger real estate organisations, and we consider ourselves most fortunate to have found you. You were friendly, reliable, and efficient and we were very impressed with the consistently excellent service you delivered. Throughout you made the process seem effortless and made us feel as if we were your only clients. We would unreservedly recommend you to anyone wishing to sell a home in Canberra.
Sincerely,
Peter and Rosemary Enge

Marianne Moore : Sold in Waramanga:
Andrew was confident in his ability to sell my house. I would recommend him to sell your property.
Joanne McMahon and Jonathan Willis : Sold in Rivett:
“Dear Andrew, just wanted to let you know how much we appreciated your hard work and expertise in selling our home in Rivett last year. We were very impressed by your warmth, your professional approach and extensive experience. Our house sold quickly and for a much better price than we had expected.
Everything was handled easily and efficiently from the professional photo shoot to the exhibition and sale process.
Your personable, friendly style made it easy to ask questions and you were always happy to take our calls. We really appreciated your advice – from details on presenting the house to the more complex legal information. You provided us with all the information we needed at the outset, and kept us fully informed throughout the process.
You went over and beyond your obligations by advising us through the process of choosing a new house to buy. We encountered a lot of problems with purchasing a new place and you helped us immeasurably with every step. It was an emotionally trying time and you were there for us with practical and emotional support. Your patience and your good sense of humour were appreciated as well.
We would certainly hire you again and wholeheartedly recommend you to anyone looking for an excellent agent.”

“The marketing strategy Andrew used worked really well and this, together with Andrew’s network of contacts and strong negotiating skills, achieved an outcome better than we ever expected.”
Michel Lauder : Bought in Chisholm
My family and I moved from QLD to the ACT in September 2016. Of course like everyone who have already sold their existing home would understand buying another house especially interstate is very stressing, however, Andrew made the process very easy. Myself and I would highly recommend Andrew and his team, regardless you are buying, renting or even if you are Selling your Property. Thank you Andrew and your team at Ethic Real Estate.
