Brooke Farah

I recently settled on a property I bought from Rich & Oliva. 🥳

I am incredibly grateful for Marco’s guidance through the process. After looking for over a year, I was disheartened and frustrated.

Marco was transparent throughout and honestly made the whole experience so much better - I’m thankful to him for helping me secure a home in the suburb I grew up in. It truly means so much to me.

A special thank you to George and Luke, who went above and beyond organising access during the settlement period so I could get tradesmen through and hit the ground running.

And thank you to Brooke and Riccardo for being there and giving me advice during the opens for the home I purchased.

I highly recommend Marco and the team at Rich & Oliva for your real estate needs - their expertise in the local area is unrivalled. Read More

We are extremely lucky to be introduced to Marco and Brooke from Rich and Oliva. They were extremely supportive. With their extensive knowledge, they navigated us seamlessly through the entire process, from staging to procuring the best value for our property in a short period. Thank you for your service.

I would like to express my sincere appreciation for the professionalism and expertise I experienced when selling the property at 6/169 Croydon Avenue, Croydon Park.

From the outset, I knew that Rich & Oliva and Marco's team, including George Stavis, Brooke Farah, and Luke Sinicropi, were the right choice to handle the sale of the property. Before the campaign even began, they quickly and professionally prepared the apartment with painting, decluttering, and styling. The property looked fantastic both online and during inspections.

The marketing campaign was comprehensive and well planned. Throughout the entire process, I was guided with clear advice and a well-considered strategy for approaching the market.

The combination of excellent presentation, strong marketing, professional representation to buyers, and a well-run auction conducted by an outstanding auctioneer resulted in a successful outcome.

I found the entire selling process to be professionally conducted. I would have no hesitation in recommending Marco Errichiello, Rich & Oliva, and the entire team to anyone considering selling their property.

Thank you again for achieving such a great result. Roger, Estate Executor Read More

To Whom It May Concern,

I would like to take this opportunity to thank Marco, Brooke and the team at Rich & Oliva Real Estate for handling the sale of 5 Goodwin Avenue, Ashfield, in such a professional manner.

Throughout the entire campaign, they kept me fully informed and worked tirelessly to achieve a fair result in what was clearly a difficult market.

I was extremely happy with the level of service I received, from the quality of the marketing and communication throughout the campaign, to the negotiations conducted on auction day and ultimately the final result achieved.

I can say with confidence that the team at Rich & Oliva are professional, honest and hardworking, and I would highly recommend them to anyone looking to sell locally. Read More

Selling our family property was a very important decision, and we knew Marco and the team were the right people to trust with the sale.

Their hard work and persistence truly paid off. Of course, it would have been nice to sell under the hammer on auction day, but it wasn’t meant to be. Despite that, Marco remained positive throughout the entire campaign and continued working consistently until he found the right buyer for the property. He never stopped working on our behalf.

We’re very pleased with the final outcome and extremely happy with the way Marco and the team handled the sale from start to finish. Read More

Bought a house through this team-excellent service and highly professional throughout. Special thanks to Brooke, she was absolutely fantastic! Read More

Marco and Brooke did a fantastic job selling our Paddington home. They were proactive, energetic, and built a strategic plan that respected our tight deadline. Their communication was seamless, and it was clear they were genuinely invested in getting us the best result. We sold right on schedule and couldn’t be happier. We highly recommend them to anyone looking to sell Read More

I would like to thank Brooke and Marco for selling my aunt's house in Croydon Park last Saturday. Throughout the campaign they were genuine from the outset, fully respecting her 91 years and living in the house for over 40 years. On the auction day they had their full team on site along the auctioneer Clarence White giving us the best opportunity to achieve the desired result, with over 50 people in attendance this was fully realized. Thanks again to Brooke and Marco who made this transition easy for my aunty, they were very sincere and real to her needs and that is greatly appreciated by her family. Read More

We recently sold our home with Rich & Oliva. Marco and Brooke did a wonderful job guiding us through the experience and were a pleasure to deal with. They achieved an incredible result, worked very hard for us and we highly recommend them to anyone looking to sell Read More

Marco and his team recently helped us sell the family home in Burwood. Having it in the family for over 80 years held a degree of anticipation for us with over 75 new families walking through the house prior to Auction. Whilst not selling on the day Marco stayed committed to seeing the house get the optimal price based on market expectations - and he delivered, selling it less than a month later. Marco knows the area and its nuances and is highly motivated and personable. He got us the outcome we needed and I highly recommend his services. Read More

Marco, Brooke and the Rich and Oliva team in Croydon Park have been wonderful! I have bought and sold before, but this was by far the best experience I’ve ever had.

The communication with Marco and Brooke was brilliant all the way through. Not only did they consistently keep me in the loop, but I also felt heard and supported throughout the selling process. (The quality and finesse with their marketing was also impressive.)

Selling your property can be a stressful experience, but I can honestly say that mine was anything but. Marco’s calm candour helped to cut through the confusion that often comes with selling, and Brooke’s warm, welcoming nature helped to reassure that we would get the right result.

If you’re thinking of selling your property in Croydon Park or the wider local area – please consider Marco and Brooke from Rich and Oliva as I cannot recommend them enough. Thank-you again, Marco and Brooke! Read More

Marco and his team helped us in a very successful sale of our Ashbury house of over 35 yrs. Their team are experienced, professional, trustworthy, calm and know the neighbourhood. Marco is very informed and has lived in Ashbury from childhood. He is calm, a good listener and is always available to satisfy your concerns or knowledge gaps. Brooke is delightful, reliable and encouraging.  Read More

When we bought our home 12 years ago through Rich & Oliva, they made our first home purchase feel so personal and special. So when the time came to sell, there was only one choice — Rich & Oliva.

From our first conversation with Marco, we knew that selling our treasured family home would be a success. Surrounded by professionals like Brooke and George, the team worked seamlessly together — from photos and marketing to inspections and finally auction day. We were truly impressed by the professionalism and honesty of the entire Rich & Oliva team.

Rich & Oliva are true Inner West market experts, and you won’t be disappointed in putting your trust in them. Read More

Selling the family home of 73 years is never easy. We had so many wonderful memories there, and deciding to sell was emotional. Having previously sold another property through Marco at Rich & Oliva, we knew we could trust him. From the moment we called, he presented a clear and attractive proposal, guided us through preparing the home, and offered fair and transparent fees. Marco, Brooke and George delivered a fantastic marketing campaign, and we were fortunate to sell prior to auction at a very strong price — especially when compared to recent sales in the street. For anyone thinking of selling, you can truly trust the team at Rich & Oliva. They’re honest, hardworking, and genuinely know their craft Read More

Hi Marco, thanks to you, Brooke and George for all your hard work and good service, bringing the successful sale of my property. I would like to express how I feel about your agency and say thank you. I will highly recommend you if I know someone looking for a real estate agent to sell a property. Whether it be professional knowledge, marketing or looking after customers, your agency provides excellent service. From beginning to final auction, step by step, after every open inspection, you report to us and gave advice, what the market reaction was, how to improve to get the best sale result etc. I am very happy with your service. Again thanks very much. Read More

We first met the team back in 2010 when we leased several local properties. They always went above and beyond to help us and looked after us as tenants.

We had such a great experience that when it came time to buy, we turned to them for advice — and ended up purchasing a property in the street just behind.

We loved the apartment, and when it was time to lease it out again, it was an easy decision to call the team at Rich & Oliva. They did a fantastic job — their service was exceptional.

When it came time to sell, we didn’t even consider anyone else. We knew they were the best in the area: experienced, professional, and trusted for decades. Once the tenant moved out, the property was left in excellent condition. The team styled, marketed, and sold it prior to auction for a great price.

We couldn’t be happier that we met the team all those years ago — they’ve looked after us like family, and we’d highly recommend them to anyone looking to lease, buy, or sell. Read More

Marco – just a quick note to thank you and Brooke for my recent unit sale and managing to secure a buyer in just under 4 weeks really assisted my transition.

I am so appreciative that you made the effort to take the initial offer to other interested parties resulting in a ‘bidding war’. Those extra $$$ are going to make the world of difference for me in retirement.

And, of course, congratulations on achieving a building record for Amy Street! Read More

Last Saturday we purchased our first home through Rich and Oliva. In the lead up to the sale date I was actually interstate for work, so whilst my partner had been to an open home already, the agency was very accommodating in getting me at the last minute to inspect the property. Interest in this particular place was quite high, which sometimes can make the already awkward experience of an auction even more awkward. The whole Rich and Oliva team however were very welcoming, calm, attentive but gave my partner and I the chance to bid in our own time and on our own terms. The auctioneer, Clarence, was also very professional but also cracked a few jokes and made the experience a whole lot less nerve-racking.

It was so nice to have the chance to meet the owners after we were successful and get a feel for how much they loved the property, and how much we loved the property, and it was all very sweet. When it came down to the business side of things, signing contracts, amendments, deposits and such the whole process was quick and easy. There were lots of congrats, pats on the back and handshakes all round. It was nice to get a vibe from the team that they were actually happy that we had found our first home and everyone was very sweet. If photos are important to you, I would recommend not buying an apartment on the windiest day of the year. But it was also nice that a few people stuck around to get a couple of photos of us getting blown away whilst putting on the SOLD sign! Read More

From the moment we decided to sell our unit, Marco was nothing short of exceptional. His guidance, market insight, and unwavering support throughout the entire process made a world of difference. We were blown away by the final result... 18 registered bidders and a sale outcome that exceeded all expectations!

Marco, along with George and Brooke, formed a powerhouse team. Their communication was clear, their strategy was sharp, and their teamwork seamless. They went above and beyond, holding usually three open homes a week to ensure maximum exposure. I originally purchased the property through Marco's team and later rented it out, so l've experienced their service across every stage, and I truly can't fault a single aspect.

If you're looking for a real estate team that's professional, proactive, and genuinely invested in your success, I couldn't recommend Marco and his team more highly! Read More

Having bought and sold several houses in four states over the years I would rate my seller experience with Rich & Oliva as second to none. From start to finish the friendliness and professionalism of Marco, Brooke and the rest of the team was unparalleled and the result speaks for itself. Eight registered bidders at auction confirmed that the property was thoroughly marketed and the sale price exceeded my expectation. I would unreservedly recommend the team to anyone else considering selling property in the area. Read More

A sincere thank you to Marco, Brooke, Brian and the team at R&O.

We successfully purchased a home through Marco and successfully sold our home with Marco, which he helped in executing a simultaneous settlement time-frame for both. Marco was very efficient in providing trade contacts to get my home ready for sale. The photo shoot, marketing and video shoot were A1 professional, and on time.

Marco's approach is calming, well measured and methodical in everything he does, whilst Brooke was always a breath of fresh air to deal with.

They are a reliable, genuine & honest generational family business, that gets the job done, and we would highly recommend R&O for buying and selling.

Thank you again guys.

Sincerely. Read More

From day one, Marco Errichiello gave me complete confidence that I could achieve the sale price I was aiming for. His communication throughout the campaign was excellent — always clear, timely, and to the point, which I really appreciated given my own busy schedule. It was clear he went above and beyond during the marketing period, making time to show the apartment to potential buyers, even outside of regular working hours. His dedication and professionalism gave me peace of mind every step of the way.

Marco's handling of the auction was equally impressive. He had a strong understanding of the buyers he brought to the table and managed the entire process with confidence and precision. I also want to acknowledge his colleagues Hellio and Brooke, who were helpful and supportive throughout. Together, they made a great team. Marco’s open and straightforward approach made the whole experience smooth and stress-free. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him to friends and family. Read More

“Under promise and over deliver” is how they say professionals should operate. And I’m happy to report that’s exactly what Rich & Oliva did for me over the weekend. Boy, did they deliver!

From the outset, Marco and the team have been a joy to deal with, from initial campaign planning through to auction day. I can be pretty detail-oriented but nothing was too much trouble for them. Every element of the campaign fell into place and was executed on time and without fuss, including the photo and video shoots, marketing, styling and signage. Open homes – of which I had 10 due to high demand, with several being after hours and some at short notice – were a breeze and handled beautifully by the team.

All this concluded at auction on Saturday with a price for my beloved Croydon cottage that I would never have expected in a million years.

A special mention goes out to Brooke who has a lovely way about her, is super-efficient and made all the paperwork wrinkles go away.

Having lived across the Inner West for more years than I care to remember and at least 20 of them in Croydon, I do not believe any other agent knows the area better than Marco.

I would not hesitate for a moment in recommending Rich & Oliva as your ‘go to’ agent if buying or selling in the Inner West. Read More

Marco and the team were fantastic to deal with. They made the process seamless for the sale of our unit in Croydon. Always contactable and kept us in the loop every step of the way with attention to detail. Would highly recommend. Read More

I was very selective in picking an agent to sell my mother's home in Croydon Park, having worked in real estate for the last 38 years with my own office but recently retired I was looking for a top gun agent who was a good negotiator with a professional approach to selling and I found that with Marco Errichiello and his team at Rich & Oliva. From day one we were kept informed of every step till the Auction day. The result was spectacular as we exceeded the expected price by $400,000. Thank you very much Marco and team you are definitely the best agents for all real estate needs in the inner west. Read More

A huge thank you to Marco, George & Brooke for selling my property. From start to finish he made the entire process smooth and stress free. His professionalism and genuine care made all the difference! I couldn’t have asked for a better result and agent! A big thank you to Marco and the team. Read More

We had an excellent experience with Marco, Brooke & George and the team at Rich&Oliva from start to finish, they were professional, responsive, and genuinely committed to helping us through every step of the process.

Communication was always clear and timely, and their knowledge of the market gave us great confidence in our decisions. It's rare to find an agent who combines expertise with such a friendly and approachable attitude.

Highly recommended! Read More

Just wanted to say Thank You for all your professionalism and hard work through the campaign.  Read More

We bought the property from Marco 15 years ago, and his team has managed it ever since.

I’ve sold several properties with Marco over the years, and he always delivers—great results, clear communication, and a smooth process every time. For anyone thinking of selling, I can’t recommend Marco, George, and Brooke enough. They’re a fantastic team I’ve trusted for decades. Read More

After living in Cheviot Street for over 60 years, it was time to sell the family home.

We chose Rich & Olivia for their long standing involvement in the Ashbury community. And what a great choice that was!

Marco was excellent in explaining the sale process with a calm and precise demeanour. Attention to detail was present throughout the sale campaign.

Brooke was a delight to deal with, always touching base to make sure we were okay and answering any questions we had.

The sale campaign was well thought out and went without any problems. Even down to refreshments and brochures for house inspections.

Auction day went without a hitch, with Emma being the Auctioneer. We achieved the price we were hoping for and it was the perfect end to a wonderful experience with all of the Rich x Oliva team. Read More

After a long search we finally found and successfully purchased our dream first home, and Team Marco were so helpful through the whole process. We were tired of pushy agents who consistently gave misleading price guides, but this was not the case at all with Marco and Brooke. They were incredibly patient, informative and transparent at every step, had great communication through the negotiations process, and were friendly and a pleasure to work with. We couldn’t be happier with the experience - a huge thank you!  Read More

Very happy with the efforts and persistence that Marco and Brooke put into selling my property. It turned into a challenging sale but they found a solution suitable to both parties which resulted in success. I was always kept informed during the entire process and never felt pressured into anything. Good work guys - Thank You! Read More

We recently sold our Ashbury property through Rich & Oliva and could not have chosen a better real estate agent to guide us through this process. Marco knows the market extremely well; he is diligent, responsive, professional and patient with his clients. He takes great pride in doing a good job and achieving great results. He gave us an honest and genuine idea of what he believed the property was worth.Under Marco's guidance and advice we achieved a result exceeding our expectations. We would not hesitate recommending Marco and his team to anyone interested in selling their property. Thank you Marco and the Rich & Oliva team. Read More

Marco and the team went over and above in assisting with the presentation of our property. They kept us informed every step of the way, ensuring the marketing was first-class. They worked tirelessly, showing potential buyers through on both Saturdays and Sundays, and kept us completely updated in the lead-up to auction day.

On the day of the auction, they gave it their all to ensure we achieved a great price for our property.

We were extremely pleased with not only the result but also the outstanding service we received from beginning to end. It’s no surprise that Marco and the team at Rich & Oliva have now sold our property four times over the past 30 years. Read More

When it came time to sell our home, the obvious choice was to sell with Marco Errichiello, George Stavis, Brooke Farah and the team at Rich & Oliva. We have had the pleasure of being on both sides of the negotiation table with Marco - having also previously bought two homes through him. We also have another friend who has also bought and sold through Marco and his team, who is just as happy as we are.

As a buyer, we found Marco & his team to be approachable, friendly and authentic, who is able to develop a repertoire with buyers, seeking to understand their needs and desires, and provide trustworthy information regarding the homes we inspected and the buying process. Rich & Oliva is a market leader in Croydon Park and the surrounding suburbs, and so we knew that Marco and his team would be able to reach and truly understand most buyers in the market.

As a seller, Marco and his team guided us through the auction process - clearly set out a timeline of the campaign, provided useful advice on the presentation of our home and marketing (the photos and video all turned out amazing! ), regularly communicated with us regarding the interested parties and buyer feedback, and provided us with trusted advice regarding strategy. When it came to the auction, the Rich & Oliva team all came together on the day to get us a great result that was above our expectations!

We highly recommend Rich & Oliva for anyone considering selling in the area. The team is hardworking, honest and truly a pleasure to work with. Read More

After 18 years of ownership, it was time to sell.

I knew Marco, Brooke and George from Rich & Oliva as they looked after our rental. They are a local and trusted team and we had a great experience with them both renting and selling.

We had a few hurdles to overcome preparing the property for sale and a couple of setbacks during the campaign.

The auction was conducted smoothly, patiently and professionally, always in our best interest with no pressure. It sold under the hammer for a good price and we are very happy that it sold to a young couple with great plans for the property.

We can recommend this team for those wanting to sell locally. Read More

We recently had the pleasure of working with Marco to sell our home, and we couldn't be more impressed with the experience. From the initial consultation to the closing of the sale, Marco's expertise, professionalism, and dedication were evident every step of the way.
