Lauchlan has been in regular contact with us for almost nine years! We were an under-bidder on a property he was selling before we bought our beautiful Prahran East home. Ever since he has kept us up to date on the local market, regularly providing insight on the value of our home. Once we decided to sell our home we were back in contact with the local agents, engaging three before finally choosing Lauchlan. Throughout the sale process he was in constant contact, providing us and our advocate, Chris, with clear updates. He was honest, gave us a true picture of the process and value of our property and we were delighted with the result. We definitely recommend Lauchlan and would certainly use him, Andrew and the team again.

Lauchlan, Carla and Hockingstuart delivered excellent service with a strong sales result. Kept the lines of communication open and was always realistic. Based on our experience we have no hesitation in recommending Lauchlan and Carla.

Lauchlan was incredibly helpful in assisting me to buy my first home! His client service far surpassed my expectations and he was reliable, responsive and had an extensive knowledge of the market and conditions affecting buyers and vendors alike. He met me at an auction I was unsuccessful at and learned of the style of property I was interested in. As a first home buyer, he was understanding of my needs and requirements. When a similar property to the one I had missed out on became available, he notified me of the opportunity before the property came on the market. The property was listed for private sale and I considered my options for a period of time before the property was eventually listed for auction. At the auction, Lauchlan was once again very helpful and assisted me to ultimately reach a settlement with the vendor. I am thrilled about the property I bought, and without Lauchlan's support and assistance throughout the process I doubt the outcome would have been the same. I would highly recommend Lauchlan to any first home buyer looking for a reliable agent to assist them to secure their first home.

We found Lauchlan Waterfield from Hocking Stuart Armadale a great real estate agent. His knowledge of the market as well as his professionalism is outstanding. He gave us feedback after each open for inspection and come auction day we were very happy with the result. Being an agent and auctioneer l think helps with a smooth campaign from start to finish.

Lauchlan is very personable and professional, we found him very easy to deal with, kept us in the loop and most of all we had a terrific outcome on the day...We also had great synergy working with Lauchlan and Marshall Rushford of the Elsternwick office - together they were a dynamic duo which really complimented our sales and marketing strategy...overall it was a fun and stressless campaign with a great result...

I cannot recommend Lauchlan enough! My first impressions of Lauchlan were that of a professional and knowledgeable agent, something he proved to be throughout our campaign. He helped ease the stress of selling through patience in answering questions and providing clear, comprehensive and timely feedback after every inspection. He was always approachable and kept us well informed of all potential leads and generously provided honest advice when asked. What sets Lauchlan apart is his ability to create rapport with buyers, keeping them invested and engaged throughout the campaign. This resulted in 5 bidders on auction day and a result that exceed expectations. I am confident that no other agent could have delivered the result that Lauchlan and his team did for us.

We were very picky when it came to choosing the right agent to sell our home. It was clear Lauchlan and the team had the experience selling in the area, confident and helpful with tips on getting inspection ready. Communication and transparency were what we as vendors wanted most and that was delivered to us with updates after every inspection and everything else between. We had never gone through the selling process before so we had a lot of questions, each beig answered with patience, honesty and with clear knowledge of the business. Auction day nerves were settled by knowing Hocking Stuart had done everything in their power to get the crowd there. We had an amazing result driven by many bidders on the day. We can't thank Lauchlan and his team enough for the attention to detail and their personable approach to not only us, but the potential buyers alike.

Over the past 5 years Lauchlan has sold 4 properties for myself and extended family. Two were sold prior to auction and two went to auction and were sold well above the reserve. We have always found Lauchlan to be diligent and honest in his dealings and a pleasure to work with. I would highly recommend him to anybody considering putting their property on the market.

Lauchlan is a hard working person. Has excellent communication skills and completed the task of selling the property. It was for his efforts that the property was sold.

I cannot recommend Lauchlan highly enough. This process was fully managed, not stressful and very professional. Our result exceeded expectations and he was great to deal with.

We were happy with all our dealings with Lauchlan over the sale period. He was always quick to respond to queries we had and his knowledge of the local area was very high. We would happily recommend him to family and friends.

Lauchlan really took it upon himself to get the best possible result for our property. He was transparent in his communication with us which we really valued, and didn't play any games. I appreciated the time and effort he spent keeping us informed and advising us of buyers and whether he thought the house was being received well. We got a great result for our property as a result of Lauchlan's and the rest of the team at Hocking Stuarts hard work. As an added bonus we had several editorial features in the Herald Sun, Financial Review and The Age which helped promote the property. Overall I would use Lauchlan again when selling another property.
