Fantastic communication, brilliant result, smooth and stress-free experience

I interviewed three agencies to sell my unit. From the moment I had the meeting with Saje I knew she was the right fit. Her confidence, communication and general ease in our meeting continued throughout the selling process. Not only did she sell my property for more than I had expected but she did it in record time and off market. An incredible result. I cannot recommend her highly enough. This was the best selling experience I have had over a lifetime of buying and selling properties.

Great experience with Andrew from Hodges Mentone.

I had a great experience dealing with Andrew from Hodges Mentone and would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a professional and reliable real estate agent. Andrew was approachable, honest and easy to communicate with from the start. He kept me informed throughout the process and provided great advice. His knowledge, attention to detail, and commitment to achieving the best outcome really stood out. He made the process simple and stress-free while providing excellent service throughout. It’s clear Andrew genuinely cares about his clients and takes pride in his work. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Andrew and the team at Hodges Mentone or use their services again in the future.

Five stars is not enough.

We couldn't be happier with the result Saje achieved on the sale of our unit. We found that Saje is well informed about the local market, gives useful tips on presenting a property, communicates clearly throughout the campaign, negotiates fiercely and does it all with a friendly, calm, patient and focussed manner. Five stars is not enough.

Saje was absolutely wonderful to work with!

Nothing was too much for Saje, she was most professional in all that she did and extremely helpful and considerate, going over and above, in support of my needs, when preparing the apartment for the new owners. Saje is an excellent communicator, totally genuine, reliable and trustworthy. I’m most grateful to her and highly recommend her.
