The property that I purchased was the first auction that I bid at, and I appreciated the very clear and patient manner with which both Lauchlan and Alex explained the process. I felt very comfortable and never pressured throughout the negotiations. I would recommend both Lauchlan and Alex to anyone who was looking for agents with great knowledge of the area and who wants each step clearly explained.
We met Lauchlan at our first viewing of the property, which we subsequently purchased, and found him to be very approachable, friendly and professional. Traits that continued all through our dealings with him including weekend follow up phone calls and emails. He assisted us through the process of buying in Melbourne and we would certainly recommend him and Hocking Stuart in general.
couldn’t fault lauchlan & the team a pleasure to deal with
Lauchlan was excellent throughout the campaign and on Auction day. He has an excellent knowledge of the market and also a good feel for the situation and current real estate climate. He also has a genuine and friendly approach. I wouldn’t hesitate recommending him to others, Thanks Greg Oakley
Lauchlan was great in assisting us to sell our clients investment property. He kept all of us in the loop and him and Alex did a great job throughout the duration of the campaign. We had a great result and our client is extremely happy. Thanks again :)
We were very happy with our dealings with Lauchlan and his team. Always kept us well informed and achieved a great result.
We just wanted to say "Thank You!". The sale of a home, particulary one that has been a part of our life for last 25 years, was not the easiest thing. We have found it a difficult and testing process, on a personal level, but can't thank you enough for the way in which you have dealt with potencial buyers and us. You provided a friendly, cheery and professional service. The Armadale Hocking Stuart is very lucky to have you on its team. Neither of us can really believe in outcome of the sale in rather testing real estate market but are extremely grateful for the result.
Great local knowledge of the apartment market in the area. Made full use of the internet and social media for marketing. Regular and comprehensive reporting of how things were progressing throughout the sales campaign. Back up team in the office provided good support. Excellent advertising material, brochures and signage.
We loved working with Lauchlan on the sale of our apartment. He was very knowledgable of the area and the market and guided us carefully through every stage of the process. We knew we were in safe hands and we were extremely happy with the results. We would definitely recommend Lauchlan.
Lauchlan has sold two properties for me and both times has put in 110%. His communication is excellent. He does not hassle you like other agents and has a calm, relaxed and clear communication style. My second property took a while to sell but he continually took the initiative to come up with new ways to keep the property ‘fresh’. I would be confident to recommend him and use him again.
Selling our parents’ home that has been in our family for over 45 years was one of the most important decisions my brother and I had to make. Equally important was the decision to select a real estate agent/agency, particularly in a slowing market and during the winter season. The property was in a prime location, but it needed work and we couldn’t afford to fail for multiple reasons. We really needed to trust someone to give us honest information and do the right thing by us. From the first meeting with Lauchlan we knew we had found the right person to sell our home. The standout for us is his professionalism, knowledge and experience in the negotiation side of the business. He listened to our expectations and bridged the gap between vendors and purchasers. His preparation in identifying potential bidders was meticulous. Suffice to say that the purchasers are a perfect fit for our property. Lauchlan along with a very capable Hocking Stuart team sold our home in four weeks, for a price we are very happy with! We would definitely recommend him to anyone who is considering selling their family home.
