thanks Sophie & Todd for helping my Father in selling his house, your were extremely friendly and the process painless for my father, very professional team Thanks again. Hugh Gordon jnr

We had to make the difficult decision of selling our first house as we relocated to Canada temporarily which turned out to be permanently. It was a big decision for us, and I canvassed a lot of agents (a lot) as we were going to be doing all of this from another time zone, another country, another hemisphere, another currency – the works. We eventually went with Hocking Stuart as they came to the party on all our negotiations, they were upfront about absolutely everything, answered all our questions even before we had made a decision on an agent, their collateral was impressive, their communication was top notch and mostly of all for us, being so far away, their local knowledge of the area was absolutely second to none. Sophie and Todd were so great to deal with, we had after hour’s meetings over Skype, early morning talks on the car phone. After every inspection we got a detailed list of how it went and they even liaised with our Melbourne based family when they needed things in real time. Our Mums wanted to get involved with the sale, considering we've "deserted" them for Canada and so Sophie was their main point of contact. She was so considerate and respectful of them both, which on a personal level, instilled much more trust in Hocking Stuart. The best part was there was no "over promise and under delivering", they delivered on everything they said they would. Sophie also gave us a list of recommendations for third party suppliers should we have needed it, which saved us searching around on the internet from overseas. All of these third parties were also a pleasure to deal with. I would have no issues in recommending Sophie and Todd if you’re looking for an agent.

Sophie assisted Todd Newton with the successful sale of our property, all requests or queries were answered promptly. She helped to make a potentially stressful time very easy to handle and we have no hesitation in recommending her to potential buyers or sellers, she and Todd Newton were a wonderful team.

What can you say about Todd Newton and Sophie LaForest. They are great people but most of all hard working, persistent, and straightforward. They have exceed our high expectations with there professionalism and never say no attitude. Thank you for the great result!
