We bought our home from Martin Hood 28 years ago so when we decided it was time to sell we made contact with him again. From that first conversation Martin brought his calm and confident presence which made the experience so much less stressful. He understood the emotional attachment we had to our home and was committed to finding the right buyers for the property. He offered clear advice on how he thought we could achieve the result we wanted. He and Louise were very supportive and took time to discuss the process allowing us to feel supported and informed. His team put together a great marketing campaign in a quick time frame and he was there at every open house. Martin gave us great feedback on the interest in our home and was genuinely invested in getting our house sold. Martin has a clear passion for architecture and older homes and can help buyers see all the possible options. Thanks to his efforts our house sold before auction and the whole process felt effortless. We would highly recommend Martin to anyone looking sell or buy their home.

Martin approached the sale of our beloved family home of 80+ years with respect and great sensitivity. He crafted his marketing campaign to align with our wishes for buyers who would love the house as we did. In a declining market, and without any pressure, we had the house sold before auction. Everyone at Hood Real Estate was delightful to work with, and Martin himself is a genuine 'people person' with a lovely friendly manner and an obvious passion for the intersection of history and architecture. We felt that Martin really cared about our old home, and that we had a friend and ally through the sale process, who just happened to be a very experienced agent. Thank you Martin and all at Hood Real Estate for your support - we are so glad that we chose you!

Martin and all the office staff were very professional in their dealings with us; knew the market well, which was important as this property had CGT implications. The buyer was signed up at the first open house.

I recently purchased a property in Kenmore with the help of Martin Hood and Charlie Berger and the experience exceeded my expectations. From the very first interaction with Martin he was genuinely focused on helping me find the right home by asking me what my needs are rather than just closing a sale. He was also kind enough to open the home after the open home has finished so we can view the property on the first day. Charlie was fantastic to work with. She really knew the ins and outs of the property, clearly explained the renovations that had been done, and showed great attention to detail. She also shared contact details for the tradespeople who worked on the house, which was incredibly helpful. Even after the sale, Martin and his team went above and beyond to make sure our experience of buying a home was a great one. Thank you for the thoughtful gifts — and especially for including our kids. They were so excited and feel like the new home has already welcomed them with their own special presents. Thanks for everything guys. I cannot recommend Martin and his team enough for anyone considering to sell their homes.

Wow where do I even start? Marty is at the top of his game, no question. He went over and above at every single stage of the process and delivered in spades. Our house was in a difficult pocket to sell, but that didn’t deter Marty. His tenacity, determination and professionalism got it sold inside the time limit required and at a price we were pleased with. If you have a house to sell, Marty Hood is the man to do it for you no question.

We genuinely couldn’t have asked for a better experience working with Martin Hood to purchase our home. From the very beginning, Marty brought a calm and reassuring presence that made what could have been a stressful process feel manageable and even enjoyable. He took the time to really understand what we were looking for and guided us with clear, honest, and objective advice at every stage. We always felt informed, never rushed, and completely supported in our decisions. What stood out most was how easy Marty made everything feel. He handled every detail with care and diligence, stayed on top of everything behind the scenes, and was always available when we needed him. His flexibility and willingness to accommodate us made a real difference, especially when things got busy or time sensitive. There was never a moment where we felt unsure or alone in the process - Martin was steady, reliable, and genuinely invested in helping us get the right outcome. Thanks to him, buying our home felt smooth and effortless, and we’re incredibly grateful for his support. We wouldn’t hesitate for a second to recommend Marty to anyone - he’s someone you can truly trust to guide you through such an important milestone.
