About us

At Stone, you’ll find we do things differently, smarter and more efficiently. We’re able to achieve great results, faster. With our up-to-the-minute database, we know where and who your current buyers are. We also look ‘further afield’ and find those outside your area with a view to moving in, resulting in more buyer competition and therefore increased sales prices.  Our greater insights lead to a smarter marketing campaign. Rather than a ‘blanket’ approach, we streamline it specifically to your target audience. We’re also able to tailor it as we go along based on our weekly buyer statistics. So rather than a lump-sum payment upfront, you only spend what’s essential – and what works – on your marketing campaign, saving you valuable money. With our wider network, sharper market-intelligence and aligned goals, our expert sales, marketing and customer-service teams work together to achieve the best result. We’re for prosperity across the board, and it’s why we do what we do, with transparency every step of the way. At Stone, our door’s always open.

Maria and her team are the absolute best

Maria, Lauren, Todd, Kirsty, Alicia & the entire team at Stone Seaforth are the absolute best in the industry. We started to sell our house at a time when the market was down, and we knew that we needed to continue to work with a team who could help us achieve the best result possible. We followed Maria's recommendation to invest in professional styling. This combined with Maria and her team enthusiasm, professionalism, forward planning and high level of detail resulted in an incredible outcome in a tough market. Every open house was attended by Maria, Lauren and Todd and they greeted each buyer in a very professional manner providing them with a huge range of information about the property and its features. Maria, Lauren and Todd worked closely with every prospective buyer and answered every question with extreme diligence. They provided us with a great level of detail of how our campaign was tracking, relevant statistics and feedback. Maria and her team always kept us informed every step of the way, through regular phone calls and formal weekly feedback reports. The team always stayed optimistic and positive throughout the entire campaign. We never had any issues or problems and any of our suggestions or ideas were thoroughly considered. We genuinely felt that they listened to us and had our best interests in heart. They were always immaculately presented which goes in accordance with their performance in all aspects of the sale. We felt the full trust and confidence in this lovely group of people who work together and form an extremely supportive and dedicated team. We feel extremely thankful for Maria, and we love her and her entire team for such devotion, and for making us feel totally looked after in every aspect of their excellent performance, top notch negotiation and the great result they achieved for us. They are team of real people who really care about their clients.

Excellent communication

Todd had excellent communication and I felt fully up to speed with how the campaign was progressing throughout. He managed my expectations well and was realistic. I felt like he was fully invested in the success of the sale despite him having other much bigger listings than ours. Will definitely turn to Todd again in future. Thanks for everything Todd!

One of the best in the neighborhood!

We had complete trust and confidence in Lousie throughout our many open homes. Having an agent who is part of the neighborhood was not only beneficial to us but to all the people who walked through the door. Her local knowledge of the community and market were impressive. Louise's calmness always brought a sense of Zen to the house, which certainly reduced the stress for us immensely. It is so important to have people working on your campaign who are personable and you can connect with. Lousie and the team at Stone Seaforth are simply the best, we would highly recommend them if you were looking to sell your home!
