We had been looking in the area for a long time and we found Peter and Cheryl to be friendly, approachable and helpful during inspections and negotiations of the property we eventually purchased. Peter and Cheryl have a high level of knowledge of the local market, properties and buyers.

We first had dealings Peter (and Cheryl) 3 years ago when we were considering selling our house on 2/3 of an acre in North Ringwood, which we had owned for 40 years. For the last 20 years it had be tenanted and fallen into disrepair. Peter made appraisals of market as it was, with house removed and for a 2 lot sub division. He indicated the pluses and minuses of a doing a 2 lot subdivision. Even then we were impressed with knowledge of local and out of the ordinary real estate. He made definitive and credible estimates whereas other agent came on with could be about this or that. In hindsight we reckon his appraisal was spot on Fast-forward, we decided to go down to subdivide and after 2+years we ended up with title two very large cleared blocks of prime real estate. We revisited agents for sale of one of these blocks. Some gave us a rather negative approach, some gave very little substantiation of there appraisal and other were just after a quick sale. Peter inspected the property and back at his office proceeded to provide substantial evidence of sales of large blocks in the area. We are skeptical and cautious vendors but Peter answered all our questions in detail and with evidence to support his answers. We pushed for a sale range at the top end of our appraisals and Peter was content with this. His commission and his advertising costs were the lowest we had been quoted. He even made sole agency agreement very short so we could bail out if there were no decent offers. We felt quite confident listing with him. After a short marketing campaign Peter achieved much interest in the property and presented us with best two offers, both of which were at the top of the range. With a little more negotiation the sale was completed, yielding a price beyond our expectations. Peter delivered what he said he could and we will be listing the second allotment with him!

David Alvares, Hoskins. What a Professional, Passionate, Honest Salesman... We would recommend David to any person wanting to buy or sell properties in the real estate market. From our very first meeting with David we knew we’d found the “real estate agent” for us. We had not moved homes in 30 years and David explained the current property process in succinct and down to earth terminology. David explained the current general property market and what our realistic price expectations should be. David’s knowledge and experience in the local real estate market around Ringwood, Ringwood North, Croydon and surrounding areas was amazing. He certainly has his finger on the pulse. During our property sales experience with David and in fact the Hoskins team, we had minimum intrusion to both our home and privacy in regard to both home visits and appointments. Thanks David for your Awesome Real Estate Service to us. We really did appreciate all your help. Cheers Linda and Bruce Johnson

We had been looking at houses for 12 months. In that time we had met with many agents. So it was refreshing to deal with Peter and Cheryl who went out of their way to provide additional inspection times and meet us on our terms. Peter was open and honest in his representation of the property and market value. He kept us informed during the sale negotiations and we are glad to have purchased with him.
Peter Moulden
We had compared other agents before deciding on Brent, his passion & enthusiasm for selling real estate is very, very good. We appreciated Brent suggesting what we could do to prepare our property prior to selling. We followed his advice and Brent was able to get an even better price than he first quoted. At all times Brent was available for any questions we had and also kept us informed of each inspection and any feedback from prospective buyers. We will use Brent again, and highly recommend him.

Cannot recommend Peter and his team at Hoskins, Cheryl and Julie, highly enough. Peter came to appraise our house at our request, we approached Peter after he had sold properties in our area with great success. He was only too happy to fit in with our schedule, gave great advice on the sale process, how to present the property for the best sale results and gave us a no frills review of our property. We found Peter professional, knowledgable, respectful and most of all totally honest with all of his dealings. The end result was a quick and successful campaign. Will not look any further if I need any assistance with future property dealings.
