Grant knows South Yarra inside out and helped us achieve a fantastic auction result for our investment property. Twice, in fact, as Grant was the selling agent first time around when I bought the property and I was so impressed with him then then that I contacted Grant to sell it for us the second time around. Thank you Grant for your hard work and professionalism in helping us achieve such an excellent result.

Nick Gatacre communicated regularly for some years until we finally decided to sell late last year. Nick had successfully marketed and sold several apartments in our block so he was a logical choice. Nick presented a professional marketing plan at an attractive rate and together with his colleague, Joe Eason, delivered an excellent result in just a few weeks. We thoroughly recommend Nick and the team at Hocking Stuart.

Being interstate vendors, we were relying on Joe to advise, manage all details and keep us informed with progress of the sale of our property. Joe exceeded our expections and delivered a great result. We would have no hesitation using Joe from Hocking Stewart again in future. He has an in depth knowledge of the South YARRA property market.

Hocking Stuart in South Yarra (and not only there) is an institution. Their agents are also well known in the South Yarra community. What makes them stand out is their fresh approach to their profession which influences their communications and advice. There is nothing more reassuring to vendors and buyers than attention to details, and more importantly attention to clients' needs. My particular experience refers to a recent property sale that was effected by Mark Konishi and Alexandra Yaramanis. What really made Mark and Alexandra stand out against other agents was their direct and unaffected style, which is something I missed in other agents where I noticed, more often than not, a calculating attitude that removed spontaneity and surely worked against them in my specific case. I have found Mark to be a tireless negotiator, and a fair one also, because I noticed that he was eager to look at the interest of both parties in a sale transaction. I also found Alexandra very competent and a portentous time keeper, everything was done within set timelines, detail coordination was clearly one of her strengths. Yes, I can confidently recommend Hocking Stuart to anyone who is considering sale or acquisition of properties. And I confidently commend the performance of Mark and Alexandra as real estate agents.

From my first meeting with Nick I felt confident that he would be very professional and do the best for selling the property on our behalf. His skills in negotiations with both parties resulted in a very Happy outcome for the Buyer as well. Everything was explained along the way and Nick made sure all run very smoothly. Even if the property had not sold on the day, I believe Nick would have stayed professionally and work with both parties to get a favourable outcome. Thank you to Nick and all the team at Hocking Stuart. 5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Once again, to get an Agent that listens to you and in return you Trust, Relax and have Confidence in him to get you through the process of selling a property, what more can you ask for. Many thanks and all the best Nick Regards Marg Power

As my first time selling Nick guided me through the process and offered valuable guidance and suggestions during the process. A great outcome at auction. No hesitation in recommending Nick as an agent.

From my initial conversation with Nick through to the sale of my property Nick at all times demonstrated a high degree of professionalism and integrity. He maintained honest, open and regular communication with me and was extremely efficient in managing the preparation of the property for sale and the sale process. Nick's knowledge and experience, together with his strong management and communication skills, provided me with confidence throughout the advertising campaign and sale process and alleviated much of the stress that often accompanies the sale of a property.

Mark and Alex did a superb job presenting and marketing my property, ensuring there was plenty of buyer interest on auction day. They also were very reassuring and took the stress and worry out of the process for me. I have no hesitation recommending them to anyone selling a property in the South Yarra area.

It had been a pleasant experience dealing with Grant. He had been diligent and thorough. He was able to communicate with clarity and apply his vast knowledge and understanding to various situations and stages of the sales process. Other than giving timely updates, he also gave excellent advice. In addition, he is a skillful auctioneer and I am delighted with the result. I would highly recommend entrusting Grant with the sale of your property.
