About Sam

Combining enviable market acumen with tailored, results-driven campaigns, Sam Hobbs delivers a premium property sales experience and truly exceptional outcomes for his clients. As Jellis Craig Port Phillip Director, Sam is a local real estate leader who brings a strong focus on the St Kilda market to his role. He has sold many of the suburb’s most sought after, high value homes and enjoys continuous engagement with active, pre-qualified St Kilda buyers. Sam builds enduring relationships with vendors and buyers, who respect his deep knowledge of the Port Phillip market. He brings marketing expertise plus a significant personal database to every campaign and leverages the extensive Jellis Craig network to ensure maximum exposure for each property. Sam applies a flexible sales approach, always prioritising his client’s goals and wishes. He is skilled and experienced across all methods of sale including auction, private sale, expression of interest and off-market campaigns. “Especially for the larger period homes in St Kilda and surrounds, a tailored approach is what drives the best outcomes. While auction may be the right choice in many instances, for other properties a private sale, EOI or off-market sale will yield the strongest result.” A strong communicator, Sam’s friendly, genuine style and passion for Port Phillip property have seen him win numerous repeat clients and referrals. Clients value his professionalism and advanced negotiation skills. “For me, negotiation with buyers starts at the beginning of the campaign. Irrespective of the method of sale, negotiating the best possible result reflects the trust and rapport built across several weeks. It’s never a last-minute effort.” Sam holds a Bachelor of Laws and Bachelor of Science. His sharp intellect, discipline and consultative style reflect his background with consulting giant KPMG. “Having switched to real estate from a corporate career, I love the opportunity to work with clients from all walks of life, and to make a difference in their lives by achieving consistently superior results.” In his spare time Sam likes to surf, listen to music, snowboard, travel and take his young son to the beach.

Thank you Sam

Sam was great to work with, and we really appreciated his transparency and strong communication. We also trusted his guidance on strategy, and because he kept us consistently up to date, we were happy to adjust the approach when he advised to do so. This led to a strong outcome, and thanks to his expeirence and work we can now focus on our new home.

St Kilda expert

I originally bought my property from Sam 9 years ago and he was my first choice when deciding to list my property. Sam has an excellent understanding the nuances of the St Kilda market and brought great advice to the table on how to sell my property. I was very happy with the end result and would highly recommend Sam to anyone looking to sell their property.

Excellent experience selling with Sam Hobbs. Honest, reliable, punctual and professional.

Sam was at all times professional, reliable, punctual, and worked hard following up promptly with us and potential buyers. He is a great communicator and gave great advice as to how much work we should do on our house for the sale. He was very helpful in understanding all aspects of the process. He had a great knowledge of the market, giving us a considerable list of recent sales of comparable properties. He very accurately predicted our sale price. I would certainly use Sam for any future real estate needs.
