To anyone thinking of selling their home, I would sincerely recommend Hocking Stewart (544 Whitehorse Road Surrey Hills - Cnr Union Road). Toby Parker & his staff were always there to help me sell my home. Selling to me, was quite stressful at times. But they were always there to help me whenever I rang them, taking the trouble out of selling & giving me a very good result. I am a very satisfied customer & would recommend them to anyone thinking of selling their home. Sincerely Margaret (formerly of Clifton Street, Balwyn North 3104)

At the time we were selling our house we were living interstate, Claire organised every aspect of the sale from having the pool serviced to getting the floors polished also arranging temporary furniture hire. We could not recommend a better agent. Claire worked tirelessly on our sale and we were very happy with the sale and price obtained was spot on. The agents and our valuation

Selling a home can be a stressful business of course, but Claire Wenn from Hocking Stewart Balwyn was a wonderful person to have in charge of this process. At all times she was relaxed and reassuring, and worked tirelessly throughout the campaign. We were always kept fully informed and up to date in all matters. Claire was professional and thorough. She understood and addressed any concerns we had during the sale campaign. The property sold at a price above our expectations. Thank you Claire. We would not hesitate in recommending Claire to anyone wishing to sell their property. Peter and Sue Buchanan.

I was very happy and satisfied with the capability of Claire Wenn in preparing all aspects needed to sell the property at 82 Maud Street Balwyn North and on the day of the auction along with the great auctioneer a record price was achieved, a wonderful result, I would highly recommend Claire Wenn and the team she worked with.

Dear Claire The first attempt to sell our house, with a competitor, was a disaster, no bids on auction day, no offers at all and frankly Tamara and I were wondering if we would ever be able to sell our house. We had an existing relationship with Hocking Stuart as we purchased our dream home from you 3 months earlier and you understood our situation. From that moment you told us you could sell our house. Over the next twelve months we had regular contact about the housing market, however at no time did we ever feel any pressure to list our house for sale with your company. In April 2015 our circumstances changed and we made the decision to list the house again and we appointed you as our agent. What a difference right from the start! The process mapping out the marketing campaign was not a sales push to buy “more marketing ” but more about how can we present the house to secure the best possible price. In the end, the result was exactly what we had hoped for the first time around. An offer before auction and the price achieved was due to your commitment, dedication, hard work and extremely professional team at Hocking Stuart. Tamara and I are immensely thankful and we certainly have no hesitation in remaining a customer of Hocking Stuart from either a vendor or purchaser view point. For now we wish you well and trust you continue to make many more buyers and sellers happy people in securing the great Australian dream. Tamara & Matthew

I have known Claire for a number of years and so when it came to selling our property she was an obvious agent to include on our shortlist. We met with a number of agents before deciding who to use and Claire was the one that impressed us the most. She did not fail to deliver. She is lovely to deal with and incredibly organised (she has to be as a full time working Mum with three boys). She has great communication skills - all through the sale process and afterwards we were kept informed as to what was going on and what would happen next. Claire really goes the extra mile - on auction day she even arranged for a free coffee van outside our house. She has restored my husband's faith in real estate agents! I could not recommend her highly enough.

My wife and I have experienced Claire's services on 3 occasions now, twice on selling our home and once when purchasing a home. With excellent local knowledge Claire works really hard for her clients and provides realistic, practical advice during an often stressful process. She often went above and beyond what most agents would do to make sure that we got the results we hoped for. Thanks Claire

Claire Wenn of Hocking Stuart Surrey Hills has kept me informed of developments in the real estate market for some considerable number of years. Accordingly, when I decided to sell my house, I asked her - along with several other agents - to provide me with a detailed proposal in relation to this potential sale. Claire’s proposal stood out both in terms of detail and professionalism. The proposal included a detailed timeline to accord with my own time table in relation to the sale. Consequently it was an easy decision to select Claire’s team to market my property. The sales campaign occurred professionally without fuss. Claire’s attendance at the opens for inspection was always timely and well planned. Her feedback was always quick and to the point. Upon sale the subsequent process was handled efficiently and effectively. In summary I appreciated the considerable expertise that made my experience a success and would recommend Claire and her team without hesitation to any prospective seller. I would be more than happy to add to this reference whenever required.

Claire has now sold 2 properties for us and I could not recommend her highly enough. She is dedicated, enthusiastic, a real people person and great fun to be around. Her commitment has been demonstrated throughout both sales processes. Once it even extended to her on hands and knees drying my kitchen floor as I was heavily pregnant with my 2nd child.

I am a buyer's advocate and purchased this property from Claire on behalf of a client. Claire was great to work with and willingly accommodated my requests for extra inspections for my clients and met me earlier at the property when I had to race to other opens. She was happy to help me work with her vendor and my client to agree on auction terms we were all satisfied with and Hocking Stuart also managed the letting of the property which we were also very pleased with. Thank you Claire!!!

It was a pleasure having Claire working to sell our property for us. I have only praise and would highly recommend her.

I was very happy with the result we achieved and the support provided by Claire. Claire kept us very well informed during the whole process. Claire is very responsive and is certainly a customer focussed individual. Following the sale Claire's excellent customer service continued. We very much appreciated all of Claire's assistance.
