Marina displayed compassion for our situation that we needed

Thanks to Marina for taking us through the sad and daunting process of selling Dad’s unit. Thanks for all your communication through every step particularly through the campaign and your hard work in the last anxious days. Thanks so much for everything that had led to a successful sale outcome.

Focus on the result and strategy.

Our decision to sell our property in Bondi with Stella and Marina from LJ Hooker was the best choice we made. The whole experience, from the first meeting to the final sale, was outstanding. Their knowledge of the Bondi area is impressive. They didn’t just know the trends; they anticipated them. This forward-thinking, along with their professional approach and friendly demeanor, gave us a huge advantage. They ran a clear, tailored campaign that focused entirely on getting the best possible outcome for us. We were especially impressed by their communication. Stella and Marina are amazing. They provided regular, detailed updates, breaking down complicated market changes into simple advice we could use. Their smooth teamwork meant they dealt with any potential issues before we even noticed. In the end, their hard work led to excellent results that far surpassed our expectations. We strongly recommend Stella and Marina to anyone looking for dedicated, smart, and experienced agents in Bondi.

Great Sales Experience

Marina and Stella recently sold my unit in Woollahra. They did a superb job from engagement, through marketing and staging, sales negotiation, and finally completing the sale. I would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone else wanting to sell in this area.

Delivered on all fronts

We selected Marina amongst three other proposals from real estate agents. Marina's proposal was competitive and critically, offered an innovative funding structure with respect to fees and selling costs. We were under budget and time pressure to finalise our sale prior to the Xmas break and briefed Marina accordingly. Amongst all four proposals, Marina was honest, down to earth (not selling the dreams), set out realistic timelines and objectives, and most importantly, excelled at communicating with us to ensure there was no slippage in our timetable. Overall, Marina delivered on all fronts and manage to secure a great outcome. I would highly recommend her.
