When I approached Walter to sell my apartment, he had provided a very clear campaign strategy based of his extensive knowledge of the local market. Throughout the sales campaign I received regular, honest, accurate, clear and detailed updates on the progress of the campaign which kept me comfortable that the chosen strategy was working. One the auction day, the result was ~15% better than expected with the sales campaign fair exceeding my expectation. Working with Wally was so easy! I could not recommend his services highly enough to anyone wanting to buy or sell within Melbourne's SE suburbs.

I was very happy with the marketing campaign and auction result for my property. Having previously used Walter for the purchase and sale of family properties, there was no other agent I considered. Wally’s knowledge of the local area was important, together with his suggestions for the marketing campaign. Wally and his team were professional, informative and friendly in their approach and he kept me advised at all times after inspections, or with queries from prospective purchasers. I am very happy to recommend Walter to any potential clients, whether they be vendors or purchasers.

The Product: Having decided to place our long held ‘in need of some TLC’ 1940’s Interwar Art Deco Duplex investment property on the market, we embarked upon a tight 4 week Auction Sales Campaign with Walter and his Sales Team. Throw into the mix an extensive makeover including kitchen, bathroom, timber sanding and polishing and painting throughout, inclusive of landscaping in the lead-up to the campaign, and it was always going to put everyone to the test! The Process: Working closely with Walter as lead Agent, we relied heavily upon his local marketing knowledge to focus on the preferred Buyer demographic in the run up to Christmas; mindful of a two year real estate correction, improving buyer sentiment and a shortage of stock across the sector. The Upshot: A very successful auction outcome on the day, not only meeting our reserve sale price, but exceeding our expectations with a +15% result! In summary, Right Product, Right Agent, Right Time… all achieved with open communication and trust across the board. Hocking Stuart Armadale, Walter & Co. are highly recommended where a flexible approach and comprehensive industry expertise is a prerequisite in order to achieve the best result in today’s dynamic market conditions.

Wally is great! He really knows the local market and he's out to look after his customers. There was no upselling, just really sensible advice on how to present the place for sale to get the best price and which advertising strategies to use. He could have pushed more expensive advertising but he told us exactly what was right for us and our circumstances. We had a great result and it's all down to Wally. On top of that he's a really good person. I am so glad I met him selling a unit near ours. We could not have found a better agent!

I've known Wally for a couple of years now, seeing him at many opens around the area while we've been looking to buy. He was so helpful while we were looking that when it was time to sell I knew Wally was the right choice. He guided us through the whole process and ran the auction perfectly on he day. Would highly recommend him.

Walters was full of energy and raring to go after our first meeting. Unlike other agents we found that he was happy to give us feedback on our property's current state and how we can maximise value by fixing things around the property that wouldn't take long. For example, some paint and smoothing of walls, repainting a different color on kitchen island and bathroom vanity, a new coat of paint on balcony barrier, etc etc. Most agent just want you to sign with them asap and take their commission. Walter doesn't like wasting your time and pushed us to get things done. We were always kept up-to-date with how the property is going and he was always just a phone call away. The end result was outstanding and we got more than we had hoped! Thanks Walters

Andrew and Walter handled our sale professionally and compassionately! Kept us up to date all the time and nothing was too much effort for them. They took care of everything and made our job easier. They know the area and the business and am so glad we had them looking after us.

My settlement completed today without any problems all handled by Walter while I was overseas . Walter advised on every aspect of preparing my property for sale from the styling to the right amount of investment in marketing to holding our nerve and heading to auction where he achieved a result above our expectations . Very grateful,Thankyou Vicki

Walter came to have a look at our apartment when we were doing a small renovation to give us his opinion on it valuation. So when we were ready he quickly and painlessly got us organized to sell. He knew exactly what marketing we needed and advised us how to present for the best outcome. Auction day came and it was pouring rain, but because of Walter’s hard work it soared past our reserve. The only negative we have is that he is a Richmond supporter. Thanks again Walter,

Extremely impressive. Totally engaged at all times. A true professional and exceptional Real Estate Agent and Auctioneer. Could not recommend more highly!

I found Wally to be a friendly and courteous person. What I was most impressed with Wally was the fact that he sought to achieve an excellent standard of professionalism. I saw this when I was present at the photo shoot for the marketing of my property. Wally did not just let the photographer in. Throughout the whole session he was focused on achieving the best shots, and wasn't a passive bystander. Rather, he asked questions, conferred with, and made suggestions to, the photographer. I could see it wasn't because I was there but because he really wanted to have the property presented in the best light. He could have just took another call or just go and do another job. But he was committed to the task, even though my property may not have been the most commission he could achieve based on other properties he had. He was also very responsive to my queries and requests. I also appreciated his friendly and professional demeanour.

I cannot recommend Walter highly enough. Dealing with Walter has been a first class experience, from our initial meeting to value my property right through to auction day and beyond. He has an excellent knowledge of the local property market and was able to offer valuable advice about how to price and market my apartment for sale. Walter's marketing of my property was top notch and drew a huge number of potential buyers to the apartment. His superior marketing skills helped me to achieve an excellent sales result. Dealing with Walter was very hassle free from a vendor's perspective, the communication was great and he made every aspect of the sales process smooth, professional and efficient. Walter helped me to achieve a sales result which was well above my reserve and well beyond even my most optimistic of expectations. I would never use another agent. If you are selling in Walter's area, do yourself a favour and engage him as your agent. You will be very glad you did.
