Selling your family home is going to be a stressful process at the best of times. Having a calm group of professionals to help guide us through all the steps of the process was not only reassuring to us, but also gave a sense of confidence about the eventual sale outcome. Steve and the team helped us focus on process and not price to ensure our property was well presented and had the highest level of interest possible from potential buyers. Their advice started many months out from the campaign to ensure we had our house properly presented for the sales campaign and concluded on Auction Day where we know the best price was achieved. it was great to see the Team working so seamlessly together, and maintaining a positive, friendly and engaging approach to the sale process.

We chose Steve Tickell of Hocking Stuart to sell our house as he has been an agent in the bayside area for many years so had a wealth of experience and knowledge of our area. He also has a good reputation in bayside as a very approachable genuine person of the highest integrity. We received an honest appraisal of our home and Steve worked hard to achieve this result for us.We would highly recommend him and his team .

Stephen, Jenny, Will and the entire Hocking Stuart team have provided great service, communication and guidance through the sale process. Stephen's auctioneer experience facilitated a fantastic auction result on Grand Final. Many thanks Stephen & Hocking Stuart Sandringham

We selected the team at Hocking Stuart because of Steve Tickell and Jenny Dwyer. Their knowledge of the market in this area, the ease of dealing with them, the fact that they get the job done consistently, made the selection an easy one for us. Well done Steve & team on another successful result.

We highly recommend Steve as an auctioneer if you are selling. Steve was very professional throughout the campaign, attending the open days and getting to know potential purchasers interested in our property. At the pre-auction meeting, he provided us with a detailed summary of the potential buyers and did not attempt to negotiate our reserve price down due to changes in the market conditions. On the day of the auction, his experience was evident as he gave a concise overview of our home and the current market trends. His created a very relaxed environment where buyers were confident in bidding and not being pressured in any way. The result was a very satisfied seller and a confident buyer in having purchased a beautiful home at a reasonable price.

We were so happy to work with Steve - he really understood our area and the market and we felt we were always given honest feedback and advice. Steve is super professional and really goes above and beyond the duties of his engagement - we always felt in the loop and it was great to have someone we could trust to guide us through the whole process. Steve is very responsive and all round a great person to have on your team and to work with. We were super happy with the result of our campaign.

Steve recently sold our house we were very comfortable taking his advice from the marketing campaign through to auction day, he did a great auction and we were thrilled with the result. Steve has sold another property for us a few years ago and has taken time over the last few years to give us advice on other properties we have been interested in, I would highly recommend Steve and Hocking Stuart Sandringham, Jenny and Roger Dinnage

We've used Stephen to sell two houses for us and on both occasions he not only achieved a fantastic result but made the while process very simple. His advice regarding preparation of the property was excellent and his recommendations for stylists and tradesmen were excellent. He's also a really nice guy!

Steve communicated with us throughout the sales campaign so we knew exactly what was happening. All aspects of Hocking Stuarts work were executed with a real attention to detail. I'm very happy to recommend Steve to anyone considering a sale in the Bayside area.

We are absolutely delighted with the sale outcome, which far exceeded our expectations. Steve Tickell, together with Jenny Dwyer and Nick Kiloh, provided quality individual application to the sales task and a combined team effort that was exemplary. The whole sale procedure was undertaken in the most professional, efficient and caring manner. We could not be happier with the way we were guided calmly through the entire process, from your initial presentation, through design and preparation of marketing material, regular communication and advice, timing and management of “Opens” and personal support during this stressful time, to the ultimate success at auction. Special thanks must go to Steve for his amazing control over a lengthy and hard-fought auction. Nobody could have done a better job in a totally professional manner.

Stephen was extremely good with the sale of our Mother's property. I can only recommend him. He helped us all the way through the sale. If we ever sell our own property we will definitely be giving Stephen a call.

Steve, Mandy and Nick were a strong team. Communication was good throughout the campaign and we got the result we were after on auction day. I would recommend Steve to my friends.
