Grant and his colleague Charlotte Broussard were both very helpful in providing opportunities to view the apartment and were very forthcoming in answering all our questions. They spoke to us with respect and honesty. They told us openly when that the owners wanted to go to auction. From that point on Grant dealt with our buyers advocate. and the negotiation proceeded. It took a week but I think negotiations were well handled. The process has been well handled in our opinion. We thank Grant and Charlotte for their efforts in brokering this sale and their professional manner. Matthew Delaney

Mark was referred to us by a friend who was impressed with the quality real estate agency service Mark provided him. We talked with Mark for over a year before actually moving to sell. In this time he provided quality advice without pressure. When we did decide to sell he again had all the relevant information which he provided in a well balanced, easy to follow and timely manner. Through the sales campaign he kept us well informed without excessive detail. We reside overseas and really this did not seem to be a problem. Obviously Mark has a lot of experience and the campaign before auction went very smoothly. The auction price achieved, in a difficult market, was close to what we expected reflecting a good feel for the market. Overall a good experience. Mark is a very competent real estate agent.

As our agent, Grant went above and beyond expectation and I would not hesitate to recommend Grant to others. From our fist meeting, we found Grant to be friendly, professional and extremely helpful, nothing was too much trouble. Living interstate, communication was critical and Grant certainly kept us well informed and up to date on how things were progressing. Grant worked extremely hard, was always positive and in a difficult market, achieved a result in the end.

We felt that Joe and the Hocking Stuart team had our best interests at heart throughout the entire sale process. Their attitude and ability were first rate and we couldn't be happier with both the outcome of the sale and the service we received. We highly recommend Joe Eason if you're looking to sell a property in South Yarra.

I am a buyers advocate appointed by the vendor to sell his property, I engaged Grant Wallace to sell my clients property and within a matter of weeks Grant managed to present 2 very good offers. Given the current climate Grant was able to negotiate excellent terms for my vendor client needless to say both my client and I cannot speak highly enough about Grants abilities not to mention his communication skills. Grant called and emailed me throughout the campaign with honest feedback and sound advice. Grant is an honest and trustworthy person I will be using his services again.

Grant sold our property in a tricky selling environment and ended up getting us a result we were very pleased with. He is professional, thorough, and a good communicator without ever making us feel like we were being pushed towards a particular price point/condition/result. He gave his time and professional opinion whenever needed and wasn’t ever pushy. We would definitely recommend him as a selling agent.

I was selling my property at a time when the media was speaking doom and gloom on properties such as mine. Mark took it on and promised to do his best and that is what he did. He kept me informed of all progress by phone and email and replied to all my queries in a timely and encouraging manner. His advice and recommendations were price conscious, transparent and he always acted quickly. My selling experience was made pleasurable in engaging Mark Konishi.

From the moment I walked in to the office of Hocking Stuart in South Yarra and my first meeting with Director Grant Wallace I felt comfortable and knew I had made the right choice of agent to handle the sale. Grant’s knowledge, skills and professionalism along with his colleague Charlotte Broussard ensured the entire process from the start of the campaign to a successful sale on auction day was as positive, well marketed and stress free as possible. I would highly recommend Grant and Hocking Stuart South Yarra as your agent of choice for any of your property requirements.

Having previously sold more than one property I was not looking forward to going through the process again. The property was not close to home and needed some minor maintenance and basic cosmetic work. Nick arranged the appropriate tradespeople, and the property was sale ready sooner than I expected. His price estimate was close to mine, and as the sale price showed, was in line with the market. I was provided with regular updates during the campaign and Nick informed me of all possible senarios for the auction, which helped with auction day jitters. I can highly recommend Nick Gatacre and the team at Hocking Stuart, South Yarra.

Mark and his team were fantastic to deal with through the entire process. Great communication, he set realistic expectations and we were pleased with the end result considering the timing of our sale. Our property was passed in at auction and Mark enacted Plan B overnight, resulting in a sale within just a few days. We'd highly recommend Mark for his no fuss but effective approach.

Mark was easy to communicate with throughout the entire process and was readily available when required to answer questions. His market knowledge was excellent and provided a realistic approach based on thorough research into the possible buyer pool, recent sales and overall market conditions. His instructions were clear on auction day and the whole process was smooth and without any issues. I would recommend Mark to any prospective seller looking for an agent to represent them.
