Stephen was really helpful answering all questions/ guiding me through first home buying experience. It is hard to get trusty real estate agents so would absolutely use his services in the future.

Dealing with Stephen was a refreshing experience. He is knowledgeable of the area and the market, a straightforward communicator and the sale process felt like a partnership.

Stephen was courteous and let me look through the property in my own time, when I inspected it for the first time. He gave me relevant interssting information about the place, and when I mentioned I really liked it, he made it clear it was available to me to buy if I wanted to. Stephen was personable and great to deal with at all times. He made the signing of the contract really straightforward and hassle-free. I would recommend Stephen and his agency to anyone else interested in viewing properties around the local area.


Stephen Simmons was insightful supportive and eager to find the best buyer for us. He communicated with us daily throughput our sales campaign. He managed to obtain a higher price for our unit than other Agents were indicating. We would recommend his service as an Agent,

Stephen was a very good agent and always kept us informed about the progress of the sale

Stephen Simmonds was professional at all times, provided me with follow up and constant updates regarding the sale of my property.

The house was not presented well and in a bad state of repair. Husband and wife were in the process of divorce with a nasty intervention order in place. Add to this the coronavirus and interested parties dropping like flies. Somehow Stephen managed to sell the house at the price I wanted. He kept in constant contact with me, making sure not only me but my solicitor and all interested parties provided necessary information when required to orchestrate the sale of the property. He managed to find 2 interested parties the day before the house was up for auction. The deal was done at 9:30pm Friday night with h a 14 day settlement! An awesome achievement by Stephen and I could not be happier.

Stephen impressed right from the outset. Punctual, professional and eager, Stephen was the clear choice amongst the other agents in the inner west at the initial interview stage. I was not disappointed when he continued to go above and beyond even after landing my signature. Stephen really sets himself apart from other agents by being very warm and genuine. He worked very hard to follow up on all prospective buyers and was able to give very detailed summaries of all interested parties and their status. The result of his hard work was a packed street on auction day and a result that far exceeded my expectations. Thanks heaps Stephen, Leo, & the Hocking Stuart team.

Stephen was friendly, professional and knowledgeable. He came highly recommended from neighbours who had recently sold. He put us in contact with painters and decorators who styled the place immaculately. He was always on hand to answer any questions and got us a fantastic record price for the apartment. He also was instrumental in finding another property for my son in the area. We cannot recommend him highly enough!
