Excellent communicator with deep understanding of local area

This is the third time we’ve worked with Luke — twice as sellers and once as buyers — and every experience has been a positive one with the result we were hoping for. Luke brings great local knowledge, real expertise, and a strong understanding of the market, all with a straightforward, no-fuss approach. His honesty, integrity, and zero-pressure style make the whole process easy and stress-free. We’d happily recommend Luke to anyone looking to buy or sell in the area.

Great outcome, great service !

We recently sold our property through LJ Hooker Foster, with David Hochkins managing the sale, and we were extremely pleased with the entire experience. As the property was sold off-market and we were managing everything from a distance, there were naturally some challenges with communication and coordination. However, David handled the process in a highly professional manner from start to finish. His communication was timely, clear, and reliable, which gave us a great deal of confidence throughout the sale. What stood out most was David’s honest and accurate advice. He provided realistic guidance on the market without any embellishment or false expectations, which we really appreciated. His knowledge and professionalism ultimately resulted in achieving a sale price that we were extremely happy with. We were very satisfied with David’s level of service, his responsiveness, and the smooth way he managed what could have been a much more difficult process. We would highly recommend David and the team at LJ Hooker Foster to anyone looking to sell their property.

Proactive, responsive - with good realistic feedback

Went beyond what we expected in finding suitable properties for us and then negotiating with owners. As a buyer, we had a specific brief and had asked various Forster based agents to approach owners of properties that we had identified or others that matched our requirements … David was the ONLY agent in Forster who followed through on this request and ended up identifying several off-market options, one of which we ended up purchasing with David as the sellers agent. Very impressed with him!
