Kept us informed throughout the entire campaign. Easy to deal with and worked to achieve the result that we wanted

A very knowledgeable; personable; and professional agent and auctioneer. Happy to recommend both Simon and Greg Hocking Holdsworth based on our experience to all and sundry.

Well presented and very personable with an outstanding knowledge of the local market and what prospective buyers are thinking. Simon always made his time available to us and kept the information flowing throughout the entire campaign. Very professional on all levels.

Simon is a great agent and he's helped me out over the years with good advice and knowledge. I was lucky enough to secure his services for the sale of my property in middle park and his expertise and skill enabled a great result. He is very personable and always a pleasure to work with. Thanks Simon Marisa

Simon was very helpful and offered good advice throughout the sales process. The property had the issue of close proximity to a tram line, with the perception that this could be noisy. This put off some buyers, but Simon worked well with the potential buyers who were not troubled by this issue, to set up a competitive auction. We were very happy with the sale price achieved and very happy with the communication that we received during the sales process. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Simon and his team to potential vendors in the area.

We spoke to a number of different agents in considering the sale appointment for our property - Simon was a clear standout and impressed us on a number of levels: strongly motivated, plus clear & succinct advice regarding property presentation and pricing strategy. Ultimately, we were confident in Simon's ability to deliver us the best result. The level of communication was steady throughout the campaign, and we always had comfort the Simon’s updates regarding buyer interest were relevant and transparent. It was on auction day that Simon really performed. After the property passed in under a vendor bid with subdued bidding, Simon never talked us down on price and remained composed. Simon reassured us that buyers were still captive and to hold our nerve. Two buyers expressed interest post auction, which delivered a result ahead of our expectations. We felt our decision to appoint Greg Hocking was vindicated by their performance and we have no hesitation in recommending Simon for future appointments.

I have bought a property that was listed with Simon and inspected other properties listed with him. I have found him to be friendly and professional. He was helpful, without being pushy. He seems to know the Port Melbourne market well and does a good job for his vendors.

From the pre-sale discussions, throughout the sales campaign and the auction performance, Simon presented and maintained a most professional yet personal approach. He gave no unrealistic claims of sale targets, kept us regularly and well informed after each inspection and other times, and showed the utmost respect for my mother on whose behalf the auction was held. His auctioneering skills were of a similar nature where he truly worked in the best interests of the seller in gaining the best possible outcome. On this he exceeded expectations. Despite a challenging crowd he maintained his professionalism and was the proverbial "duck on water". A first class effort. He and his team at Greg Hocking Albert Park are highly recommended.

From the very first time we met with Simon we felt at ease with him. Simon helped us with good advice on how to prepare our home for sale and we were confident of his knowledge of the property market and professionalism in handling the sale of our home. He kept in touch with us all the way through the process, responded to our enquiries knowledgeably, and was prompt in getting in touch with us after each of the open for inspections, providing feedback of what people thought of our home and the level of interest. He was very informative regarding the possible scenarios that could occur on the day of the auction and we felt very informed and at ease as we headed toward that event. We were extremely pleased with the final outcome and highly recommend Simon as a prospective agent. He goes the extra mile and works extremely hard. Thanks Simon for all you did to assist us sell our home.

We appointed Simon to sell our house in South Melbourne. We were very impressed with his market knowledge of the local area and his familiarity with prospective buyers. Simon was trustworthy and always maintained constant communication throughout the campaign.
