Re:CONSTRUCTION, Melbourne's warehouse styling living specialist, engaged Mike because of his success in selling warehouse conversion style properties in the Collingwood / Abbotsford area and his market knowledge. He and Amanda worked tirelessly on our campaign and delivered a successful outcome. Communication was clear and regular. When the time came, he handled the negotiations well, seeking input when required. We felt like Mike and Amanda left no stone unturned in their quest to find the right buyers and achieve the best possible price and terms.

The team at Hocking Stuart led by Michael Amarant achieved the best result possible for me with the sale of my unit in Collingwood. Michael originally sold me the unit ‘off market’ back in 2009 which helped me out as I had been unsuccessful on a similar unit in the same building. When it came time to sell I called Michael and was reminded of the friendly professionalism previously experienced.I was very impressed with Michael’s realistic discussions about timing, pricing and marketing - all with the added complication of it being over the Christmas period. Using the strengths of his team, Michael organised for Elyce the stylist to recommend the presentation and organise some minor repairs. While Amanda helped Michael out with the open times. Once again these staff were all very professional instilling my trust in achieving the best possible outcome. That outcome was certainly achieved selling prior to auction at a very strong price. I would highly recommend Michael’s services to anyone thinking of buying or selling in the Collingwood, Fitzroy, Fitzroy North and Clifton Hill areas.

Mike Amarant provided clear, concise and professional service from the beginning to the end of the sale process. His team were well prepared and communicated effectively, ensuring that every detail was dealt with and that the property was presented well for inspection. The open for inspection events were well managed and any specific appointment to view the property were kept to a minimum. Preparation for the auction was thorough and was the only occasion I needed to meet the sales team for briefing. The property was successfully sold. I would use Mike Amarant again if the need arose.

Michael is the sort of agent who lays off all the real estate hype and instead takes an evidence based approach. This gave me confidence over a the campaign, I felt he was working in my interests rather than having a buck each way and I think his genuineness meant that buyers were also confident. On auction day he knew what he was doing and even though bidding was sluggish Michael worked well with a couple of buyers to get us over our reserve price. We were happy with the result as we'd priced the reserve quite highly. After sales service was also great. I'd highly recommend Michael.

Was very pleased with results.

Mike recently helped me sell my Collingwood apartment. Throughout the entire selling process Mike remained committed, enthusiastic and positive, and continually kept me up-dated on the progress of my sale. As a first time seller, he guided me through the process with his expert advice and knowledge, and provided me with all the information I needed to make well informed decisions. I would definitely recommend Mike and will be hunting him down again for my next sale. Thank you Mike (and team), I really appreciate the time you took to help me sell my property.

I am a big fan of the team at Hocking Stuart. Mike and Amanda work extremely well as a team unit , providing honest and direct feedback which ultimately resulted in a record price for the property. Their innovative ideas and approach are elements which made the selling process a seamless and engaging one. Mike in particular has nurtured the relationship over the years providing advice and insight on the local area which was invaluable. Based on his advice, the timing of the sale was perfect timed attracting the right profile of buyer which led to a price 200K above reserve.

Michael Amarant and Amanda Murphy were wonderful to work with on the sale of my home that I have lived in for 20 years. Their attention to detail and professionalism was excellent. They worked diligently and tirelessly on the campaign putting in many more hours than required. The result they achieved at the auction was better than I expected. I highly recommend them to any prospective clients. Thank you.

Great agents to work with, constantly kept me informed and achieved an amazing result. Would highly recommend.

Michael Amarant - we always regarded Michael as very good at communication and we have kept in touch since buying our property from him and Charlie Atkins 6 years ago.

Michael Amarant, with great support from Amanda Murphy, run a professional caring supportive service completely focussed on results for you the client. I can recommend without reservation their services for your real estate sales needs.

We were very impressed with Michael. He had a thorough knowledge of the Fitzroy market, great communication and got results.
