Outstanding service & professionalism
We bought these units from Sandy 10 years ago and he has been a very astute and conscientious rental agent throughout the entire time. As our circumstances have recently changed we decided we needed to sell the units. We asked Sandy for a ballpark figure for a potential sale price. He came back with an estimate between $540k and $560k. We accepted this and proceeded to sale. Final sale was $560k exactly his best estimate.

Excellent service!
From the moment I made an enquiry with Sandy to list my property for sale he was very helpful. He gave me a very accurate estimate for the value of my property and finally sold it for an amount higher than my expectations. Sandy was very responsive to my questions and always kept me up to date on the status of enquires etc on the property. I highly recommend both selling with, and buying from Sandy.

The Bar Has Been Set Very High
Rental team gets 5 stars. Great communications and accountability on wear and tear Vs damage costs with entry/exit reports which means allot to owners. Sales of our investment was the best I have ever experienced. Sold above expectations. Constant contact through process. Costs were transparent from start to end. I wish every agency was like Warburton. (BIG thx! :)

A Time to be Gratetful
In times of such turmoil and uncertainty its refreshing to find guidance, support and assistance in managing my property portfolio. I tried a number of "others" who I entrusted to take care of my property affairs but after much searching Warburtons Real Estate has definitely come up trumps! I quickly learned that Sandy Warburton is very much in touch with his local and surrounding market and was able to offer me the best advice and guidance when it came to either renting or listing my properties for sale. Honestly .. I cannot praise and recommend Warburtons Estate Agents highly enough for being professional, consistent, understanding and even tolerant when managing expectations in a time that is nothing short of volatile. If your looking for an agent in the Hunter region then I would start with Warburtons Estate Agents because I believe you will get the very best of local knowledge, support and commitment to customer service in the area!

Testimonial from Rob (Vendor) - 2 Buddens Lane Muswellbrook
Exceptional service
It is clear Sandy has significant and longstanding knowledge in the real estate market. Sandy’s warm, open and honest approach was observed from day one meeting with Sandy. Sandy was noted to share many viewpoints to assist in our decision and gave clear examples of several outcomes for the sale of our house. It was clear Sandy was able to provide advice from multiple perspectives rather than push in any one direction. Sandy and his team provided consistent updates and delivered on their service time and time again. We are truly grateful we went with the Warburton team and there is clearly a reason they are well regarded in the Upper Hunter. The entire team are amazing to work with and we’re observed to show a high level of knowledge and respect to us during the entire process. Thank you again Sandy and the team! Verified by RateMyAgent

Sale of our family house during Covid Lockdown
The agents were extremely professional during a trying period. The presentation for the sale was amazing with so many comments from friends on how well the house was presented. Both Sandy and Jessica were amazing helping no end with constant feedback and advice during the sale period. Sandy's valuation of the property was spot on with a sale closed within a week at a greater price than expected. Thank You

Thankyou Sandy and Warburton Estate Agents
Thank you Sandy for a fast sale of our home achieving a wonderful price. Your knowledge and experience was evident! Thank you for continually keeping us updated throughout the process! We used you for sale of our first home with the same results, so thank you for doing it again on this home. Highly recommend Warburton Estate Agents.

Professional and highly recommend
I couldn't have asked for a better, hard working team and experience with selling our property. Sandy was knowledgeable of the market, he was professional and made the whole situation painless. Sandy kept in constant communication with me and I never had to follow him up. Sandy followed through on everything he said he would do and was there every step of the process. I highly recommend Sandy and the team at Warburton Estate Agents and would use them again.
Renee and Stewart (SOLD 18 St James Crescent) - September 2019
Couldn't be happier
After purchasing a new home before selling our old one, we were in a position where we had to sell our property quickly and still achieve a price that enabled us to settle our new home. With the help of Sandy Warburton and all the team at John Flood Real Estate, we prepared our property for sale, and they had a buyer for us within 3 weeks at our sale price. We were always kept informed through the process, including open houses and inspections. We couldn't be happier with the support from the team, and fully understand why Sandy is the agent of choice in our area. Highly recommended.
Daniel & Amanda Lane (SOLD 21 Lexia Street Muswellbrook) - February 2018
Best experience by far
We engaged Flood Real Estate to sell our home and as an agency they could not be faulted. Sandy and his team were outstanding in every way. Throughout the entire process we were kept informed and were always confident of Sandy's ability to get the best outcome for us. We highly recommend Sandy an his agency to anyone looking to buy or sell in the Muswellbrook area
Barry & Lynne Gray (SOLD 22 McClintick Drive Muswellbrook) - November 2017
