This is the second time we have used Phil to sell a property and once again it was a stress free and well informed process. From the time of listing to auction day we were kept well informed and guided through the whole process. We were very happy with the outcome and would highly reccomend Phil if you are considering selling.

I would just like to say thank you to Phil, honestly thank you. We have dealt with many real estate agents in our time but not one has given us the time of day like Phil has. We appreciate you’re time, patience and understanding in this transition of selling our home. You have made it a pleasure in working with you and getting a magnificent result. Once again thank you.

We decided to go with Phil as our salesman as he seemed to the most confident agent in the area at reaching the selling price we were after.. He made the whole process of listing , marketing, selling and our final negotiation very easy and stress free.. I would highly recommend Phil to anyone considering selling in the Peninsula area

I found Phil to be honest in his dealings with us but the delays in the settlement and the condition the house was left in put a bad taste to this deal. I don't personally hold Phil to account for the delays as it was clear that the vendor was a difficult client but would encourage Hocking Stuart to being more forthright to their sellers on the condition they should leave their homes in.

Excellent service from Phil and Tom from Hocking stuart Highly recommend Phil and his team. Sale of house a very easy and stressless task.

When looking for an agent to sell a property I look for the quality of the database and the sales skills. Phil has the database you need and depth of sales ability that will bring you a strong result. Could not rate Phil high enough to you. Look no further.


Thank you for all your assistance with the purchase of my property. It was a dificultant timefor me and I appreciate your understanding. Being to access the property for measurements at short notice was very helpful. I would recommend your services to anyone going through this process.

We had Grant, Phillip & Lorraine from Hockingstuart Rosebud handle the sale of our property at 25 Wilson Street, Rosebud. On the advice from Grant and the team we decided to auction after a 30 day advertising and open for inspection program. I would like to say we are very pleased with the way that Grant and his team handled all of the open for inspection days and the way they went about the advertising of the property. Also we were very pleased with the board at the front of our property. On the day of the auction the whole team performed above our expectation and we were impressed with the way Grant handled the actual auction. On this basis we would highly recommend using Hockingstuart Rosebud with the sale of any future properties.

Phil came to appraise our property on a Sunday, at a short notice, which we appreciated. We liked the way he explained what his price evaluation was based on, as well as his approach to selling the property. The house was sold for the asking price, 2 days after the photos were taken. We are very happy with the outcome.

I would highly reccomend Phil Down as an agent to sell your home. Phil is honest, straightforward and keeps you well informed with feedback as to how your property is progressing along with going the extra mile in helping me attend to some things that I was unable to do as I live many km’s away. He doesn’t ‘beat about the bush’ which I very much like in a reale state agent.
