Stewart Upton’s founder, Alan Stewart Upton, commenced business in the late 1940’s as Frenchs Forest Real Estate. In 1954, this leading office became Stewart Upton Frenchs Forest and the Stewart Upton Real Estate Group was founded. Stewart Upton was involved in a large number of major property developments throughout the northern suburbs of Sydney and became well known for its innovative and progressive approach to real estate.

In 2002, David McElveney bought Stewart Upton Frenchs Forest, and continues this tradition of innovation into the industry.

"We have decided to concentrate on making sure our Homesellers end up with more buyers, more buyer follow-up, more feedback, more service which in turn means you get more money. Indeed, that is why we have chosen these words as our motto - Stewart Upton - you get more … for life" - David McElveney

The office gives more service and more money in a more stress free manner than any other agent in the Forest area by a country mile!

Here’s why –

Unfortunately, most real estate agencies these days place too much emphasis on too many areas with their salespeople ending up being the “jack of all trades, master of none”. What that means is that all the salespeople you’ll be talking to these days are supposed to find buyers, find sellers, do inspections, negotiate, show houses, call buyers back, call sellers back, organize building reports and pest reports, go to the council, do market appraisals and the list goes on and on. How do they do it all and still deliver you, the home seller the fantastic result they promised? They can’t!

I started selling real estate in 1993 doing just this and found my clients were suffering. (even though I was the number 1 salesperson in the country for the largest independent real estate network of over 800 salespeople). Regrettably my clients’ property sale suffered, their lives whilst “on the market” suffered and ultimately the money they received when they did sell suffered as well. With prices the way they are these days if the agent you choose fails to get the last bid out of your buyer it will probably cost you between $7,000 – 10,000.

When David bought and developed his real estate office he decided that if he was going to get big results for people there had to be big changes delivering big prices with a lot of care taken in the process to his clients. The houses we sell are handled by a team of salespeople who’s main role and only responsibility it is to sell your property for you. Although we operate like a team we all know we can’t be great at everything, so we don’t try to be.
