The General led the charge to get us a record price!


Douglas Macarthur is the most genuine, hardworking, and honest salesperson I have ever met, and despite being a Sydney agent for a few decades, still hasn't lost his hometown country charm and work ethic. We have known Douglas for almost 15 years, so when it came time to sell our townhouse, we knew there was no one else we would trust to help us navigate this stressful process.

The communication and feedback from Douglas has been exemplary through every step of the way. Not only did we get a text message, email and phone call after every open inspection, there was not a single day during the auction campaign that Douglas didn't touch base with us, most days on numerous occasions. And I know he spent hours and hours texting, emailing and calling potential buyers. He managed all the pre-market tradesmen, photographers, and inspectors, as well as liaising seamlessly with our conveyancer and strata agent.

Before the first open home I was on my way to the property to sweep the courtyard and mop the kitchen floors, when I realised I had forgotten the keys. One quick call to Douglas to see if I could pick up his set of keys on the way through and Douglas volunteered to do the tidy up for me! To say he took the stress out of selling our property is an understatement.

Come auction day, Douglas had a queue of bidders lined up out the door. Of the 11 parties registered to bid, 7 different groups tried their luck, with Douglas going around the parties to help one lucky couple secure our first home. The final price was beyond our wildest dreams, achieving a record price in the complex for a 2 bedroom, two garage townhouse, through Douglas's hard work and impressive relationship building. With his down-to-earth nature, Douglas has made many connections and will hopefully help the unsuccessful bidders find their new home soon.

There is a reason people call him THE GENERAL, and his rank is definitely 5 STARS!
