In the first quarter of 2020, we engaged David Hayden of Stone Real Estate to sell our house in The Greenway, Duffy's Forest. It was clear David was an experienced professional from the start. First, he visited us to discuss the project from every angle and was patient in the extensive Q&A process - following this he arranged for marketing collateral including video shots, brochures and presence on social media. Second, he stayed in touch throughout the entire process and agreed with our decision to temporarily take the property off the market during the worst months of the Covid restrictions. Third, when we returned to the market earlier this year, David made sure all the marketing material was up to date and relevant to our objectives. In all this time, he managed the house inspections and was present for each of them, following up at their conclusions with brief verbal feedback and recommendations as necessary. Thanks to David, his deep knowledge of real estate in this area of Sydney, his patience and professionalism, we achieved a sale within the band of expectations. We have been particularly pleased with David's inputs, suggestions and the ultimate outcome.

We are extremely happy that we chose to work with David Hayden. He is very professional in his approach and has a vast array of experience in the local area. He has a calm demeanour with a great ability to communicate. With early offers we were keen to sell but David reassured us that auction was the way to go. Our sales result was way beyond any expectations that we could have ever imagined. We absolutely recommend David and would have no hesitation in working with him again. Thank you David for a great real estate experience.

David definitely lived up to his established reputation with his accurate assessment of the market and his keen insight into buyer expectations. He was always positive and readily available - with suggestions, solutions and support, encouraging us to aim high, with his ongoing advice and enthusiasm. His experience and expertise secured us a sale price well beyond our expectations.

David worked tirelessly to get our property sold. This is the fourth property he has sold for us. David was in constant contact through out the whole process. We appreciated his honesty, his opinion, and his knowledge of The Forest area. Thanks David for everything. We are so happy with the auction result!

David has a lot of experience and knowledge of the northern beaches market. He is always responsive and helpful.

Good service and always keeping promises

David had excellent local knowledge and a great network of potential buyers, and was able to quickly progress an off-market sale. His communication and attention to detail was excellent, and he listened to our needs. A safe pair of hands; very happy to recommend him.

David engaged us with an off market sale over the Christmas period. He was very patient, was always available and did his best for both the client and us the buyer. Negotiation took a while as expected and David helped as much as he could there. We consider ourselves very lucky to have this off market buying opportunity and are very grateful that David reached out to us in the first place. I recommend David for buying and selling!

David was very open and honest with us about the realistic price expectation of the owners. David provided assistance throughout the entire purchase process including assisting us with valuations of comparable sales and recommendations on local tradesetc that would be of assistance once we had moved in. Very happy to purchase from David again.

Pleasure to deal with, even when there were unexpected delays on our side! Made it easy for us.

David was friendly and helpful and proved to be right on the mark with the numbers through open house and the time frame to sell the property. We were doubtful with the property going on the market just prior to Christmas I believe David went above beyond in his help and advice , always available and keeping us updated. We could not be happier with the result.

David was respectful of the circumstances surrounding the sale of our late Parents' home. He kept us involved in the process throughout; with very good communication to us both. Most importantly, he achieved a sale price we are happy with.
