Samuel was a delight to work with, our interests were his priority and his careful negotiating skills exceeded our expectations. Happy to recommend!

easy to talk with good communication

After 13 years of living in Sydney and working in Canberra Sunday to Friday it was time to retire and rejoin my family in Sydney. As L J Hooker, Manuka were the long term manager of our Studio Apartment in Griffith where they had been first class property managers, they were given the first opportunity to sell the studio which they achieved in minimal time achieving our expected price, Whilst selling the Studio, Simon was always keen in assisting us with selling the Kingston Unit. From beginning to the end Simon led us through the sale of Kingston. Step by step he provided us with advise and guidance. The unit made it to market and was sold before going to Auction, setting a new bench mark for the price for a Kingston Apartment of its age and condition. We cannot commend Simon highly enough for the price he achieved. However, it did not end there and he was there until settlement and even after the settlement was completed. Thank you Simon

We chose Samuel because we thought he would resonate with the younger / first home buyers we were seeking to target with our property, though we met him at an open home in another part of Canberra. Samuel worked with us for more than six months as we were clear that we wanted to find our new home before listing. During this time he provided us with guidance as to the state of the market and what our house was likely worth so we could factor that into our planning. When it finally came time to list, it was clear he had good connections to stylists and trades etc. who did a fantastic job and ultimately helped us to exceed our reserve. The property went to auction and Samuel was very much of the 'trust the process' mindset and not wanting to close a deal through private treaty prior to auction, which was a temptation to us given our sense that the market was cooling in early 2022. Samuel was also accommodating of prospective buyer's requests for mid week inspections and other accommodations due to COVID etc. Would recommend Samuel if you're listing a starter home in the Tuggeranong area.

Sam achieved what a seller always hopes for, a result that absolutely delighted me. He was everything I hoped for in an agent. He was fair, honest, professional and friendly. He always kept me informed, and aligned my expectations with market activity. I would absolutely recommend Sam as your agent!!

Samuel is a go-getter with boundless enthusiasm for his profession and industry. His youth belies his understanding of the market and human nature, both of which were important to achieving the result we wanted. He was collaborative in his approach and kept us informed at critical junctures. Most importantly, we always felt he was representing our best interests as the seller and never waivered in working to achieve our goal, even through intense negotiations. In the end he achieved a price which exceeded our expectations. The whole experience was simple, hassle-free and successful. We can highly recommend Samuel.

Sam was always professional, helpful and responsive. Very easy to work with. Sam has sold two properties for me and I would certainly engage Sam again.

Samuel is an enthusiastic and knowledgeable agent with a great understanding of the local market. During our recent sales experience he provided very good advice on what work and preparation was worth doing (and what was not) prior to going to market, and kept us informed at every stage. He was able to recommend and organise necessary contractors such as cleaners and stylists at relatively short notice within a very busy market. Samual responded well when minor issues arose during the process, and I really appreciated his persistence in following up, especially when we were first thinking about selling. All in all definitely a 5-star experience, thank you.

His patience in listening carefully to clients before sharing his knowledge and experience was appreciated making the relationship positive and giving the client confidence in him as an agent's that stand up for their best interests.

The choice of LJ Hooker in Manuka was made on the recommendation of a previous client. Samuel provided sensible advice on marketing the property and helped organise some of the preparations. He and his assistant, Michelle were enthusiastic, professional and a delight to deal with. The marketing achieved good results and a good turn out on the day. All aspects of the sale were handled efficiently and we were happy with the result.

Samuel is a dynamic agent. We are grateful for the patient commitment shown by Samuel as we were preparing to put our house on the market. His energy and business skills gave us the knowledge and assurance to entrust him with our campaign and sale. He was able to accommodate our various preferences and successfully managed to navigate our changing time requirements. Samuel (and Michelle) made the Open Home process enjoyable and provided every opportunity for buyers to inspect our house. Thanks to Samuel’s advocacy and insightful promotion, our house sold on auction day, achieving the street record.

My dealings with Samuel were entirely pleasant and I would highly recommend him. He was highly responsive to my initial enquires at a most busy time of the year and was also very honest with me about all aspects of the property and the process, which really helped me orientate myself and make a good decision. I was most impressed with him.
