From the moment we met John he was extremely honest and trustworthy. Not what you normally find in a real estate agent! He knew the market, he knew the property, he understood what we were looking for and accommodated to our needs. He was prompt in his responses and had all the answers. He was very easy to deal with, he made us feel like we were talking to a family member that actually cared! If it wasn't for John I don't think we would have found what we were looking for and been an happy as we are with our purchase. Buying a property can be a very stressful and daunting but John took all of the stresses out of it and made it a very joyful experience. I would strongly recommend John to family and friends in the future.

To whom it may concern. After interviewing two other agencies we felt John to be the agent for us. He came across very professional,efficient ,with a personal warmth and was always dressed impeccably . He ran the campaign efficiently whilst always keeping us well informed of the next stages. We never felt we couldn't approach him with a querie. The auction was run with the same diligence and professionalism as the campaign and the day was a great success. We would have no hesitation in recommending John to our friends and family. Regards Mattea Brislin and Rosa Nardella.

As soon as John took the role of selling my 2 properties, I felt comfortable in the fact that he would sell with my best interests taken care of. His communication is prompt, and there was never a time where I had to ever chase for answers to my questions - in fact most of the time he was chasing me! Not only did John manage to sell both properties in the lead up to Christmas AND get that done off the back of only one advertising campaign (saving me money) but he managed to achieve prices on both properties that vastly exceeded my expectations going into the selling process. Working in the industry myself, I could not recommend John highly enough - rest assured that in selecting John you will be looked after, as he sells each property as if it were his own. Thanks again John!

We selected Hocking Stuart as our Estate agent to sell our home of the past 32 years on the recommendations of many friends that have dealt with them before. John Pasceri and Andrew Montalto arrived on the scheduled appointment time for further discussions about appointing them to sell our house, I am a stickler for punctuality, it reflects the commitment to a given task. John kept us informed of the progress, good or bad, and always had faith in the outcome, something about knowing his job has a lot to do with it. The day before Auction, he addressed any concerns we had, and gave us some "scenarios" of what can happen. We didn't have any bids (unfortunately) but my wife and I had no concerns to this, we had utter faith in John and the "scenarios" he had advised the previous day. However, there was a very interest party that was "to shy" to bid. John's negotiating skills highlighted and we sold that day, for well above our reserve, a brilliant outcome. I have no problems recommending John Pasceri as an agent, Hocking Stuart should be proud to have him working for them.

I was recommended John through friends who couldn't speak more highly of him as an agent and auctioneer, and on my initial meeting with John, it was clear to understand why! His personal skills and ability to understand my needs made the choice easy! John worked tirelessly to achieve the best possible outcome, and kept me informed and updated throughout the period of selling my home. John has the ability to engage and interact with not only the vendor, but with the prospective buyers in a manner that is professional, respectful, personable and friendly. The result of my auction is testament to his integrity, commitment and credibility. Thank you John for making my experience of selling a happy time with a fantastic result. Jane (Vendor)

Recently sold the Family home in Reservoir. From the first meeting,knew that John Pasceri was the correct choice. His knowledge of the area was reflected in a realistic valuation of our property. John and the team at Hocking Stuart were helpful and attentive right through the sale process. He kept me informed at every turn ringing me regularly to update me. Prior to auction day he met with me to explain and prepare me for the auction process. I recommend him highly. His knowledge of the area,his passion,professionalism and dedication to the sale process make him a standout agent.

Often people say stuff....but the good ones follow through... John [and Adriano ] were organised from the beginning with a detailed plan to get to Auction and sell...but more than that he was very enthusiastic about wanting to sell my Dads house [which we loved ] Every small step along the way he was in contact with us and was very transparent about what was happening...very professional approach but also down to earth ...Auction day was fabulous and Johns experience shone through [ even when the fence fell over opposite my Dads house during the auction] We sold for a great price .. thankyou John [and Adriano ]... we highly recommend your services regards Richard Bolton

After our initial meeting with John, it was his personal skills and ability to understand our needs, that led us to select John to achieve the best possible outcome, and to keep us informed and updated throughout the emotional journey of selling our home. John has the ability to engage and interact with not only the vendors, but with the prospective buyers in a manner that is professional, respectful, personable and friendly. The result of our auction day is testament to his integrity, commitment and credibility. Thank you John for making a challenging experience into a positive lifetime memory.

Wonderful working with JOHN PASCERI on the recent sale in Preston. Passion, enthusiasm and communication from start to finish was nothing short of brilliant. On the phone when you needed assistance and we were kept fully informed through the whole process. At the end the final auction results far exceeded our reserve, we have John's hard work and local knowledge and contacts to thank for that. Big thankyou John, hope you are enjoying the break with family and 2017 is a stella year for you mate. Regards Frank

We find John very knowlegeable in regards to the market and communicated with us at all times. He returned calls promptly and was able to negotiate well in order to get a very good price for our property. I would have no doubts in reccomending John as an agent.

Where to start with John Pasceri?!... After meeting several agents when deciding who to entrust with the sale of our unique converted shop front property the first meeting with John left no doubt that he was the right man for the job. A fantastic and beautifully articulate communicator, we immediately warmed to John. As a long standing local of the Preston and Reservoir area, John's knowledge of the market is nothing short of impressive. John is extremely warm, personable and - perhaps a rarity with real estate agents - immediately trustworthy! Not to mention the fact that he's a man capable of writing upside down! He guided us through what can be a stressful time and was completely honest and transparent throughout the whole process. His energy is boundless, advice sound and response to emails, text messages and phone calls second to none. John's empathy and emotional intelligence really helped us remain calm, knowing and being constantly reassured that we were in good and extremely capable hands. Being the well connected man about town that he is, he's also good for referrals to tradespeople, solicitors and conveyancers if you need. Thanks to John, Josh and the whole Hocking Stuart Preston team - the photo shoot, marketing campaign and auction all went off without a single hitch for a successful sale on the day and two happy vendors. The sad thing about the whole process now it's complete: we don't get to see or speak with John anywhere near as much! Would we recommend John Pasceri as your agent, auctioneer and all round real estate powerhouse??? In a heart beat!

You can't go wrong if you choose John to support you to market and sell your property. John is very personable, is a great communicator and is professional in his follow up and contact. John calls when he says he will, is organised, focussed on the detail and had my home on the market as soon as I had it ready. The turn around was quick, very successful during the open house schedule and sold on Auction day with a very good outcome. John made the experience quick, efficient and for me virtually stress free.
