I chose James and Lauchlan after meeting with several other agents, and from the first meeting knew I had made the right choice. James has excellent communication skills, always had time to answer any questions and would always return my calls and e-mails with speed. He was always enthusiastic about the campaign and my property and has detailed market knowledge about the local area. James was extremely professional and very easy to get along with, making the whole process pretty easy! James was a great auctioneer that kept things on pace and the buyers in high spirits that results in a fantastic price. I am so grateful for his talent and dedication in this space. Thank you James!

We loved working with Andrew. He was spot on with his assessment of the real estate market and knows his job inside out. He offered us sound advice prior to the auction, meeting with us several times, and, was always contactable if needed. As an auctioneer, he was dynamic. His energy and humour brought added fun to the auction, and, we sold our house on the day with very pleasing results. I would certainly recommend him to others wanting the same outcome,

Lauchlan was fantastic to work with. From the outset, we felt absolute confidence in his ability to achieve the result we were after. Working with him was a pleasure. Everything fell in to place effortlessly, and he took all the stress out of the equation. He communicated via text message frequently, and addessed our concerns professionally and promptly, always keeping us totally informed. Nothing seemed too much trouble. We feel so lucky to have had what is often a difficult experience made unbelievably easy, and can't thank him enough for the wonderful job he did.

Known Lauchlan for many years , he was the principle agent in the purchase of Mcilwrick when purchased.During the sale campaign he had a sound plan and strategy leading up to the auction that showed good results. House didn't sell auction day , revised P & S , progressed with a new outlook ,within the fortnight sale had gone through . Lauchlan put a lot of time and effort into both the sale and negotiated price that was settled on . We are very happy with the result. I would gladly recommend Lauchlan as a principle agent in the selling of any property in the Windsor / Prahran area.

Thank you Lauchlan. You have been extremely knowledgeable, professional and patient with me throughout the entire campaign. Your honesty and reliability was very reassuring for me. I felt like I was in good hands all the way, and the sale result on Saturday showed this. I would highly recommend Lauchlan to anyone, especially those that need someone they can rely on and trust.

As an interstate owner we found James to be a fantastic choice of agent. He kept us fully informed throughout the auction campaign. James gave immediate feedback after each open and to suggest changes to our media campaign to generate more interest. On Auction day negotiationing with the buyers and along with Andrew James chief auctioneer they were a great team.

As prospective buyers over the last year, we got used to real estate agents misquoting, being vague or not disclosing information, not communicating well and wearing too much cologne. As the vendor, working with Wally and his team was very refreshing, as we did not experience any of this. From the outset, Wally gave us accurate and realistic price expectation guidance, fantastic advice on how to style our house for sale, excellent quality marketing (photography, online presence and copywriting) and clear and concise updates on interest in our property throughout the campaign. Importantly, we were also not at all pressured to 'lower our reserve' going into the auction on the day. We had many friends who had their price expectations strategically beaten down by their agent leading into the auction day. We couldn't recommend Wally and the Hocking Stuart team more highly. Due to the success of the campaign and auction, we are now in a position to buy our dream family home!

Wally Summons did a wonderful job selling our Prahran unit. Wally was realistic about the value of our property and provided data to back his valuation. We appreciated his honesty and integrity in this. The feedback about the small changes we could do to make our property more attractive to a buyer was great. Wally kept us in the loop after our 'opens' and any interest shown in the property. Once the unit was passed in Wally was confident in his dealings with the purchaser and managed to increase the purchase price over our reserve.
