Experienced and knowledgeable - excellent to deal with.
We found Phil Clarke a very accommodating, experienced agent who was extremely knowledgeable about the property we were viewing. His unflappable demeanor through the negotiation and exchange process was invaluable. We recommend him highly.

Simply Superb Service
Phillip's Professionalism, Courtesy, Knowledge and Reliability is the best that I have ever experienced. His ability to guide, advise and direct us towards obtaining the most optimum selling price for our property were both accurate and informative, particularly since he had to liaise with two Estate Executors in different countries.
I would have no hesitation in recommending him to third parties and using him to sell my personal property.

A professional realestate agent
We asked Phil to sell a well-placed apartment in North-Sydney - and he really did well in the campaign for advertising it, preparing the auction and care for the ongoing auction. Even a complication by an "owner" from abroad was coped with. I am really satisfied with Phil's work.

Very professional and upto the minute expert advice
Phil has deep and expert knowledge of the Lower North Shore property market. He was very astute with the pricing and marketing of my property. My property was sold within 3 weeks of listing and pleasingly achieved a price very close to the hoped for sale price in what was considered an uncertain and cautious property market. I also greatly appreciated Phil's efforts to keep me accurately and timely informed at all times of the progress of the Sale campaign.

Phil was the Agent for a property that my wife and I were interested in.
While I appreciate that the Agent acts in the best interests of the vendor we felt that Phil was realistic, honest and genuinely trying to match vendor and purchaser. There was no pressure and he was willing and supportive in helping us evaluate the property and our needs. He organised after hours inspections for us quickly. We felt that he represented our interest and offers properly to the Vendors and gave us honest feedback. Phil also has assisted us after the sale with renting and introductions.

Honest, fair and transparent
I am a young first homebuyer and breaking into the Sydney property market can be tough and intimidating. My experiences leading up to my purchase of 3/11A Illiliwa St Cremorne, were not the best. Often agents would not take me seriously due to my age and independence.
However, that was not the case with Philip. He treated me like any other potential buyer and took me very seriously from the get-go. I felt like me he managed a clear line of communication throughout the process with myself and the vendor and acted purely on the vendors instructions and not for his own interests.
Philip allowed me to settle on the property over the weekend, where I could sign contracts late on Saturday and Sunday night, making me feel he was always available.
Overall, my experience with Phil was very positive and without him I am unsure I would have been able to purchase that property.

My husband and I have just purchased our new unit in Cremorne through Phillip Clarke (Richardson & Wrench North Sydney) and found his level of service to be above and beyond. Phil is a very knowledgeable, experienced and professional of the area. We were extremely happy with the time, availability and effort Phil has taken to ensure the unit was in good order and ready for a purchase. We highly recommend him to any future purchasers if they require a great level of service.

I purchased and sold my Lavender Bay unit through Phillip Clarke and the Richardson & Wrench North Sydney team. I was delighted with the outcome of the sale, and I found Phil to be knowledgeable of the lower north shore area, professional, and realistic with respect to the market. A special thank you to Licensed Real Estate Agent, Haifa Zeitoun, from the rentals team for also taking care of my unit. I appreciate all your efforts and I have no hesitation in recommending the Richardson & Wrench North Sydney team to anyone in the area looking to buy, rent or sell.

It has been a pleasure working with Phil again on the sale of my property in Paddington. I worked with him about 5-6 years ago on the sale of a property at Wollstonecraft. He & Louise were just great, very professional & easy to deal with. He & Louise got a great price for my house & I could not recommend them highly enough.
A great outcome.

Our faith in Phil that we had developed over a number of years meant that we had the confidence to allow him complete autonomy to prepare our property for sale. As interstate vendors this was just so important. That said, if it was to be local sale for us, Phil would still have been chosen as our agent! Feedback was ongoing and thoughtful, often out of hours. Questions were always answered. Phil has the contacts to get things done. The stylist he chose did a great job. Again, thank you Phil Clarke and the team R&W, Nth Sydney for your ongoing service over the last 15 years.

A massive thank you to Phillip Clarke at R&W North Sydney for helping me to secure my first property. Phil was an absolute pleasure to deal with from Day 1. Not only was he a true professional throughout the entire transaction, but Phil also went above and beyond to ensure I felt supported and reassured during the process (in what is quite a stressful time for any property buyer, let alone a first home buyer!). Patient, responsive (even outside of standard working hours), receptive to my requirements, and the most genuine real estate agent I have encountered to date. Thank you so much Phil and the terrific R&W North Sydney team - could not recommend more highly.

A great experience working with a true professional.
In the past 50 years I have sold 12 residential properties and this last sale was handled by the best real estate agent I have used over that period. Phil is a very experienced professional agent who started by discussing my objectives in terms of price and timing, and then giving me the benefit of his knowledge of the market in my area and in my apartment building where he has sold several other properties. He gave me a price range which I agreed with and we sold the apartment within 8 weeks within that price range. This has been during the coronavirus pandemic when buyers have been scarce and concerned about prices falling, yet we achieved the highest price ever in this apartment building. Phil went beyond the call of duty to solve problems and was available at all times to discuss progress with me. He exceeded all my expectations and I highly recommend him to anyone who needs an excellent real estate agent, especially in the Sydney Lower North Shore area.

Excellent experience

Phillip Clarke is an excellent real-estate agent and a pleasure to work with. He sold our apartment in North Sydney at the price we wanted before auction. Throughout the whole process he was courteous and helpful. He has an unparalleled knowledge of the North Sydney market. Even though we had owned the property in question for 20 years, he knew more about than we did, especially about construction in this rapidly changing area. Phil kept us fully informed all the time, reporting immediately on all offers and results of viewings. What we liked especially about Phil is that he tells it as it is. Unlike many other agents, he is straightforward, honest and reliable. We couldn’t have wished for a better agent and can recommend him wholeheartedly.

From the outset, it was a pleasure to work with Phil, as apart from his affable manner, he had a clear strategy around the marketing and sales process for the apartment. Living in Europe meant that having an agent with a good communications focus was always going to be very important and Phil did a great job of reporting back on the enquiries he'd received, the viewings he had undertaken, so that I always had a good overview of where we were in the process and how things were going. Even in a slow market, he never lost his focus and actively pursued every single enquiry. Once we had a potential buyer, Phil was also very proactive in pulling together the paperwork and related reports in order facilitate a quick and smooth closing of the sale transaction. There was genuinely no part of the process which wasn't handled with the highest level of professionalism.
