Professional and personable

Gavin worked hard and made sure we got the best possible result for our sale. We first met Gavin as prospective buyers, so when it came to selling our home we felt he was the best person to put our trust in and he did not let us down. The team behind him are fantastic, especially Lidiya was just wonderful. We were thrilled with our result and highly recommend Gavin and the team behind him.

Would definitely recommend Gavin Van Rooyen

We were very pleased with Gavin Van Rooyen's management of the campaign to sell our house. From start to finish we felt we were in control, informed and receiving good advice. With his colleague, Lidiya Hanin, he communicated with us at every step of the way so that we were aware of exactly how the campaign was developing. Their attention to detail and willing, prompt, response to any query was certainly best practice. Gavin's performance as auctioneer was impressive as he conducted the event in a stimulating manner, establishing a friendly rapport with the bidders and demonstrating a thorough knowledge of local real estate values and buyers' concerns. He achieved a result which was satisfactory to us.

Gavin Van Rooyen

I was extremely satisfied with the service provided by Gavin Van Rooyen. At all times he was extremely professional, extremely well organised and thorough in providing any information or assistance. The office at Hocking Stuart at Bentleigh were also excellent in the service provided to my family in the selling of the property. I have no hestitation in recommending Gavin to handle the selling of any property.

Gentleman Gavin

Thank you so much for selling our house - along with your colleague Lidiya. Even though it took longer than anticipated, your professionalism, dedication and perseverance got us the result we hoped for. We appreciated your your caring, personal and warm nature throughout the campaign in addition to the advice you gave us prior to and following the sale of the property. You will be the first agent we recommend to friends should they choose to sell their property.

Selling my mother's house

When I first met Gavin he explained the whole process extremely well. His presentation was excellent, his manner and appearance exemplary. He kept my sister and myself informed almost on a daily basis as to where we were at with the selling process and interested parties. The day of the auction he worked extremely hard to get the price we wanted and he achieved this. I would highly recommend Gavin for your house selling or buying.

Pleasant experience with lessons learnt

Thank you Gavin and his team for making the transaction smooth. Auction day: once I was declared as the highest bidder, Gavin friendly nature steered the negotiations in a friendly environment. With the knowledge I gained so far from this transaction, i feel that I should have handled it more better. Lack of basic knowledge on my side along with the high stared skills of Gavin/Auctioneer worked in favour of the seller. I wish I should have given the necessary knowledge by the team to list the mandatory maintainance requirements like blocked drains, damaged roof etc In the special conditions as the reansaction is finalised by negotiation and not by auction in the end. Buyers expectation management is something I would request Gavin to up by a few bits. May be caring buyer: caring seller from 20:80 to 40:60 or a better figure. This is because buyer funds the entire transaction and takes maximum risk. After the auction and before the settlement, on the day of settlement and post settlement I was taken care of very well by Gavin and his team. Thank u again Gavin and team.

Review of agent, Gavin

I didn't have much conversations with Gavin so can't really review. Was dealing with Lidiya

5/15 Hemingford Road

Gavin called regularly to update activity and interest shown in the property. The process leading up to the auction went very smoothly. We were extremely pleased with the result achieved. Gavin and Lidiya were very professional in all aspects. My elderly mother appreciated the empathy shown during an emotional time for her. We would certainly recommend them to anyone considering selling a property. Thank you again, Gavin and Lidiya. Regards, Trevor Thorne

Talk to Gavin Van Rooyen for a great outcome.

From a number of local real estate agents ( who were all professional & experienced) I chose Gavin Van Rooyen and his associates to deal with the sale of my property. Gavin is a great operator in this field - knows the territory, has the skills and is organised and promptly replies & acts on any request or queries. We achieved a wonderful result.
