Well done to the team and congratulations to the new owners. We hope that they share as many happy memories there as our family has. Thank again for your wonderful service.
We would unreservedly recommend Matthew Nolan and the Rich & Oliva team to anyone selling their property. When we needed to sell our family home of over 50 years following the death of our mother, Matthew made the process easy from the very first meeting. He was very measured and factual at the initial meeting and answered all our questions clearly and patiently. Matthew was never pushing his past achievements or why we needed to go with him and his team. He was always professional and made you feel at ease. The strategy was clearly articulated and agreed upon and the campaign was well executed. His strong knowledge of the market in the local area was key to the overall strategy. The videos, photographs and social media were excellent and the communication from Matthew was faultless. In addition to weekly written campaign reports he would also regularly update us by phone and in person and was always willing to answer any questions we had. He patiently explained to us the auction process in a meeting the day before and he and his team made the auction day as stress-free as could be expected. He was always very empathetic and supportive in what was a very emotional time for us. We were extremely happy with the result that Matthew Nolan and Rich & Oliva helped us achieve. Thank you so much for your professionalism and compassion. Read More
I provide this testimonial in favour of Matthew Nolan. My family has resided in Burwood since 1975, and in that time Matthew and his father before him have had a strong presence on the real estate scene. As a result Matthew knows well the local property market, and has extensive contacts which he clearly fosters and uses effectively. Matthew recently sold our large Federation family home. In doing so he kept us fully informed and involved, and supported and advised us throughout the process. His approach was sensible, strategic, accommodating, timely and considered. The family, including my elderly mother still living in the house, appreciated Matthew's attention to all matters involving the sale and to his calm and reassuring demeanour. We had every confidence in Matthew throughout. As a result of his endeavours and keen negotiations, Matthew achieved a great pre-auction result for us. I have no hesitation in recommending him to any potential vendors. Read More
Marco was friendly, professional and approachable - very easy to talk to, delivered on promises, provided realistic and reliable advice and got us a great result.

Thanks so much Marco, Billy, Matthew, Suzanne and all the team at Rich & Oliva - we are happy to recommend you !
We have recently sold a townhouse with Matthew at Rich & Oliva. This comes the highest of recommendations and would not hesitate to list with Matthew again. The marketing and communication from Matthew were second to none. And the home was sold in a timely manner, for a price we were happy with. Due to circumstances, we were unable to be around for the sale of the home. Matthew went above and beyond what I am sure the duties of a Real Estate agent should be. Taking care of opening the home up for movers, running around getting quotes for repairs, organising the carpets and home to be cleaned, just to name a few. I can highly recommend Matthew from Rich & Oliva to sell your home in the most professional way. Read More

He outlined a strategic process and attended to all our needs promptly. He regularly updated us, keeping us fully informed, feeling fully involved. A great captain of the ship in whom we had every confidence. We are very happy with the result that Matthew Nolan and Rich & Oliva achieved for us.

Matthew was the vendor's agent on a property purchased by my elderly mother. Buying a house at her age was a daunting and stressful process for her and for the family.

He was always approachable and available. His service and commitment did not concluded on exchange of contract.

Dear Matthew, After the successful sale of our property last weekend, we would like to thank you and your team for the remarkable result and professional marketing campaign. Due to the zoning of the property, the campaign required a strategic approach to attract both developers and families looking for a home in close proximity to schools, retail, etc. You guided us through the process and provided advice to us based on your many years of experience and knowledge of the Burwood residential and commercial precincts. Most importantly, we value the relationship that we developed with you as our sales manager. You kept us constantly informed and communicated with us on a daily basis. This trust and honesty all lead to a record per sqm rate for the street on auction day. Thanks again and best wishes to you and your team for Christmas and the New Year. Read More
We recently purchased a home with the help of Matthew Nolan and our experience was outstanding.
Matthew demonstrated deep knowledge of the local real estate market and provided invaluable insights that guided our decision-making process.
We highly recommend Marco, Matthew and the team to anyone looking to purchase a home. Their professionalism, dedication, and attention to detail made our home buying experience both successful and enjoyable.
Matthew Nolan and his team were asked to make a representation to my family in order to market and sell a property that had been in the family for over forty years. Three other local agents were also asked to present to us.
We found Rich and Oliva to be the most welcoming and professional agents and they were successful in gaining our trust and our listing. They were realistic with their estimations and didn’t just tell us what they thought we would like to hear.
For the duration of the campaign Matthew has been respectful, professional and open and punctual with the information that he and Suzanne have shared with us.
The respect shown towards my 92 year old mother was first class and humbling and was of the level befitting his own mother or grandmother.
Both Matthew and Suzanne were accessible at any time of the campaign, day evening or night. A few conversations were had well after close of business and nothing was a trouble.
I found their approach on auction day to be comforting and friendly whilst maintaining a level of professionalism that is required in such a tense situation.
The entire team were fantastic and have given us confidence that we had the best possible outcome on auction day. Read More
From the beginning, Matthew provided us a road map of what would be involved in selling our family home, from
practical things to do when clearing out a home including linking us up with tradespeople and professionals, to the emotional side of what to expect in selling our longstanding family home, to the actual process of selling approach and strategy.
Throughout, he kept us updated and guided us as to what would be most helpful at different stages of the campaign. We were very happy with the result.
He’s a rare find as an agent in the Real Estate field!
Many thanks to you and your team for facilitating the sale of our house. Your expertise and knowledge of the area was of great benefit in achieving the sale, especially at short notice, and was done in a professional and friendly way by yourself and Susanne.
We were also very pleased that the property sold above the reserve price.
Once again, our thanks.

Thank you so much for your exceptional service!
Our family’s history goes back to close to 60 years ago when my parents purchased their first home together with Matt Nolan (senior) from Nolan’s Real Estate in Burwood.
Fast forward to 2024 and our mum transitioned to an aged care facility after a fall and decided it was time to sell her beloved family home. There was no choice in her mind as to who would sell the property. Enter Matt Nolan (Junior) who Mum had always exchanged pleasantries every time she saw him in the street. Mum could not have made a better decision in selecting Matt and the Rich and Oliva Team.
Sadly Mum was not to see her home sold as she passed away two weeks prior to the original Auction date.
The property was then withdrawn from the market for a period of time. We relisted the property again 4 weeks ago and on Saturday Mum’s wish was finally realised and her Burwood home was sold on a beautiful sunny winter’s day.
Words cannot express how grateful and appreciative my brother and I are to have had Matt as our agent. His support, kindness, professionalism and genuine care was constantly demonstrated during the last 7 months. Matt has shown honesty, integrity and a very strong understanding of the Burwood market hence our Auction day was a complete success as put our faith in his expertise and we achieved the desired result.
Rich and Oliva have an amazing team consisting of Suzanne, Brian, Mikayla, Marco and a huge thankyou goes to each and every one of them for being part of our journey in what has been a difficult and bittersweet time. Thankyou. Read More
I would like to thank Matthew Nolan and Suzanne Sulaiman for selling my house. Matthew and Suzanne kept me fully informed throughout the marketing campaign, they were very helpful and they are very knowledgeable about the local area. I would also like to thank the various members of the broader Rich and Oliva team which were involved at various times throughout the campaign such as during openings and during the day of the auction.
Besides the design and the carrying out of the marketing campaign, one thing that I found very useful was tapping into Matthew’s network of local tradespeople and professional people. While preparing the house for sale, I engaged people recommended by Matthew such as the painter and the stylist. Read More
A big thank you for delivering a great outcome for the sale of our property. We are very appreciative and impressed with the selling of our property only a week after the inspection first commenced.
You are such an amazing and professional team. Your responses to our questions are always timely. And we felt very informed of every step of the process throughout the time.
Thank you again!
I have known Matthew Nolan for over 20 years, initially from when he was working with his father in the family real estate firm of M J Nolan Pty Ltd and later, after his father retired, when the family firm was absorbed into Rich and Oliver Real Estate. Matthew oversaw for many years, in a most professional manner, the management of our family’s commercial property at Auburn.In this duty he ensured to our satisfaction that the conditions of the lease held by the tenant were strictly adhered to at all times. Later, at the time of sale of the property, he kept me informed during the marketing campaign with regular feedback on the response from advertising and the level of buyer interest.Through all his efforts we achieved a successful sale on the day of the auction. In all the years of association with Matthew,I have found him to be a person of integrity and upright character as well as becoming a most sincere and reliable friend. On the basis of all of this, I would have no hesitation in recommending Matthew to anyone looking to sell their home or investment property. Read More
We were referred to Rich & Oliva Real Estate by a friend who recommended we speak to them about selling our home which had been in the family for over 50 years. Our nerves were instantly put at ease by their professional approach and ability to make what seemed such an emotional time much easier. We were kept well informed during the marketing with Matthew & Marco providing regular feedback and guiding us through the sale. The result of their marketing campaign was more than 95 inspections over 3 weeks and a sale at auction well above what we expected. We would have no hesitation in recommending Rich & Oliva to any local family thinking of selling now, or in the future. Kind Regards, Maria
Dear Matthew, Thank you again for all your assistance & support throughout this whole process. We would like to thank you for your guidance & commitment in selling our property recently. From our first meeting your professionalism and transparency assured us that we would secure the best possible price. We have no hesitation in recommending you to anyone considering to sell their property in the inner west as we are sure that they will receive the same courteous and professional service you and your team provided to us.
We recently sold our house through Rich & Oliva and under the expert guidance of Matthew, Suzanne and the team. The entire experience end-to-end was brilliant. Matthew was relaxed (which kept us relaxed! ) and extremely professional throughout. He listened to our needs and gave us great advice along the way - this made the sale a very stress free experience. Highly recommend the R&O team if you are looking to buy or sell!
I would like to take this opportunity to thank you and Matthew for your professionalism in the sale of 8 Appian Way.
From start to finish, you both demonstrated exceptional sales skills, professionalism, and a deep understand of the real estate market. Selling a property can often be stressful, your expertise and strategic approach gave us confidence every step of the way. We were kept informed of every development, all questions were answered with clarity, which ensured we were comfortable with each decision. Attention to detail made a significant difference in achieving such a successful outcome. It is clear that you both truly care about your clients and gotabove and beyond to deliver outstanding results. I have no hesitation in recommending you both to anyone looking to buy or sell property in the future.
Kind regards

When it came to selling my home of 33 years, the choice of Matthew Nolan from Rich and Oliva could not have been better.
I felt comfortable with Matthew from the beginning. He had a clear timeline for getting the house ready for sale and suggested contractors I could use.
Matthew, together with Suzanne Sulaiman kept in contact with me regarding the marketing campaign to have everything in place.
Vicky Muscat was an excellent stylist who put the finishing touches to have the house looking it's best.
The whole process was much less stressful than it could have been.
Thanks a million to Matthew and the team at Rich & Oliva Real Estate. You've exceeded our expectations in every way possible. We couldn't be happier with the outcome. Well done to the team and congratulations to the new owners. We hope that they share as many happy memories there as our family has. Thank again for your wonderful service.

Matthew oversaw for many years, in a most professional manner, the management of our family’s commercial property at Auburn.In this duty he ensured to our satisfaction that the conditions of the lease held by the tenant were strictly adhered to at all times. Later, at the time of sale of the property, he kept me informed during the marketing campaign with regular feedback on the response from advertising and the level of buyer interest.Through all his efforts we achieved a successful sale on the day of the auction. In all the years of association with Matthew,I have found him to be a person of integrity and upright character as well as becoming a most sincere and reliable friend. On the basis of all of this, I would have no hesitation in recommending Matthew to anyone looking to sell their home or investment property. Read More
We were referred to Rich & Oliva Real Estate by a friend who recommended we speak to them about selling our home which had been in the family for over 50 years. Our nerves were instantly put at ease by their professional approach and ability to make what seemed such an emotional time much easier. We were kept well informed during the marketing with Matthew & Marco providing regular feedback and guiding us through the sale. The result of their marketing campaign was more than 95 inspections over 3 weeks and a sale at auction well above what we expected. We would have no hesitation in recommending Rich & Oliva to any local family thinking of selling now, or in the future. Kind Regards, Maria
Dear Matthew, Thank you again for all your assistance & support throughout this whole process. We would like to thank you for your guidance & commitment in selling our property recently. From our first meeting your professionalism and transparency assured us that we would secure the best possible price. We have no hesitation in recommending you to anyone considering to sell their property in the inner west as we are sure that they will receive the same courteous and professional service you and your team provided to us.
We recently sold our house through Rich & Oliva and under the expert guidance of Matthew, Suzanne and the team. The entire experience end-to-end was brilliant. Matthew was relaxed (which kept us relaxed! ) and extremely professional throughout. He listened to our needs and gave us great advice along the way - this made the sale a very stress free experience. Highly recommend the R&O team if you are looking to buy or sell!

When it came to selling my home of 33 years, the choice of Matthew Nolan from Rich and Oliva could not have been better.
I felt comfortable with Matthew from the beginning. He had a clear timeline for getting the house ready for sale and suggested contractors I could use.
Matthew, together with Suzanne Sulaiman kept in contact with me regarding the marketing campaign to have everything in place.
Vicky Muscat was an excellent stylist who put the finishing touches to have the house looking it's best.
The whole process was much less stressful than it could have been.
