Just wanted to say a big thankyou to Jarrod from Hocking Stuart Rosebud. We recently purchased a property and plan on renovating. Jarrod has gone out of his way to help us with site visits(some very late notice )and extra information. He and the team have been a pleasure to deal with and I couldn't recommend them enough. Thanks again Jarrod !

Grant made the selling our property a seamless and trouble free experience. We would not hesitate to work with him again.

We found Grant to be all the things you would wish for as a buyer of real estate responsive informative honest and nothing was a drama. Grant kept us well informed of the progress of our offer and even with some unusual terms and condition request on our behalf Grant supported these and communicated clearly the situation to his client who was most accommodating. Grant is a true real estate professional. If you are thinking of selling I would have no hesitation in recommending Grant and the Hocking Stuart team at Rosebud.

It has been a pleasure dealing with Philip and Hocking Stuart, very professional and easy to deal with. Nothing was too much trouble for him, our son who was unable to make it to the auction missed viewing the property, Philip was very accommodating making an appointment on a public holiday to show our son through his house. Many thanks Phil.

With historically low interest rates currently in place the hunt for property is extremely competitive and nowhere more than on the Mornington Peninsula. My wife and I have been lending a helping hand to my son and partner in this search that took us from Rye to Dromana. After about six months of disappointment I began to think we simply were not going to get on the home owner's train in this area. Phil Down from Hockingstuart placed our names on their early alert service which provided us with an edge into this competitive situation. He sent us a picture of a house that I immediately felt was right but it was not available for some weeks. When I spoke to Phil about it he made special arrangements for us to view the property and he came in to do this on his (no doubt very valued) day off. Phil took our offer straight to the owner and rang me twice on the way home to discuss the situation. Twenty four hours later the house was sold to us through a very organised and streamlined process. We are extremely satisfied with our purchase and the service we received and have no hesitation in recommending Phil Down from Hockingstuart to anybody buying or selling property on the Mornington Peninsula.

From start to finish of the sale of our property Phil was open and honest about everything. He didn't make promises he just told it as it was and he was spot on in every way. We could not have asked for a more professional person to represent us and our property and the result was outstanding. We were recommended Hocking Stuart Rosebud to manage our property and they did a sensational job over the years and because of that trust, we didn't hesitate when it came time to sell and we only have admiration for Phil and his team on the outcome. 5 Stars +

Phil came to meet my partner and I at the end of a long and frustrating search for our first home. He was quick, available, reliable, persistent, trustworthy and a nice bloke. Not something I could say for all the agents I now know by first name. We will never forget Phil's hard work for us. Thanks so much.

We would like to take this opportunity to thank Grant McConnell, his assistant agent Jarrod Eastwood and the team for the exceptional and upmost professional job they did in selling our home. From the start you made us feel at ease and kept us informed throughout the process. The honesty, professionalism and advice you provided was extremely appreciated and made for a very smooth transaction. The level of service provided exceeded out expectations as did the final sale terms of our home! Thank you again.
