Grant and Melinda were a pleasure to deal with throughout the whole sale process. Their up front honesty, regular communication and proactive actions were demonstrated qualities of their integrity and professionalism. Their guidance and support throughout the whole process took away a lot of the stress of selling real estate.

Grant Wallace was able to handle the 9 tenants in the house that was subdivided into 3 Flats. He managed to get them to cooperate with the 3 opens a week by explaining that it was in their interest. He contacted each one and had a meeting with the tenants. He has a skill in getting them to cooperate with the dozens of people who went through their flat. Grant and his team also rang hundreds of people about my property. He followed up with each person who came to the opens and there were 120 parties to contact. He kept me informed after each open. Because my property had a Road Widening Order on it Grant organised that his auction would be televised by Sky TV in case it was passed in giving coverage all over Australia explaining to me that for 3 days after the Auction there can be an unconditional sale. He covered every base as far as I was concerned. Then in the auction when the price far exceeded the reserve I admired the fact the he kept up the momentum to get every dollar he could get. He was able to help me relax by his calm confidence and his humour and delivery in the auction was extraordinary. I highly recommend Grant Wallace for his professionalism, finger on the pulse, realestate knowledge , extremely pleasant manner his caring concern , negotiating skills and time and effort he puts in. I felt like mine was the only property he was selling and auctioning when I know he had many. It was good I didn’t pay for the auction and it was unusual for me to have the salesman also be the auctioneer. I liked this as I felt more involved. I liked that I was also emailed regularly with graphs and names of people interested and details of how the campaign was going. I was elated that Grant Wallace was able to get a very high price for my house when 3 other agencies were not prepared to sell it because of the road widening overlay and being on a main road also. Grant was not phased by this but keenly and confidently looked at the positives in the property.

Our experience of Nick was very positive especially given the more difficult market conditions at hand .He worked hard to achieve a private sale working closely with his colleagues .He also went the extra mile in terms of additional marketing strategies after the property did not sell at auction .His communication levels were exactly what we would have hoped for. Overall a friendly ,diligent and professional agent who worked hard to get our property sold.

Hockingstuart has gave me a smooth and pleasant journey when it comes to buying my first home, or otherwise it could be a nerve-racking experience. Mark and Alex has been very pleasant to work with and have helped me in the process of inspecting, negotiating and securing my first home. They are by far the best agents I have ever dealt with. Thank you for making my first home journey awesome!

When selecting an agent don't be fooled by other who will try and sell you on inflated price expectations. Mark's read of the market was accurate and he delivered on what he said he would. Due to a softening market our expectations were not met at auction but over the following days Mark's diligent follow-up and negotiating got us the result we were after.
