The difference is experience

We know how to get the most from the local market

The rapid expansion of the Greg Hocking

network is underpinned by two key factors:

our comprehensive experience in the local

property market and the first class service

and results we deliver to our sellers. It’s

impossible to deliver exceptional results without

understanding the intricacies and unique

characteristics of the local market and it’s

this experience and commitment from every

member of our team that can help you achieve

your property goals.

We can help you achieve your property goals

We understand and respect that entrusting

the sale of your property to an agent is a big

decision and one that should be made with

care and consideration. Our experience,

proactive buyer management strategies and

tailored marketing solutions give us total

confidence that we can achieve an optimal sale

price on your behalf.

We help ensure your property is presented at

its very best by offering a FREE consultation

with a professional property stylist who will

provide customised advice on how to make

your property stand out from the pack.

We achieve great results

Our reputation for achieving great results for

our sellers is something we’re very proud of.

Every member of our team is committed to

ensuring our track record continues to be one

of the best in the business because we like to

let our results speak for themselves.

We listen to your goals as a seller and make

a thorough assessment of your property and

its likely performance with particular groups

of buyers in the current local market for

properties of a similar size and type. There are

always ‘markets within markets’ and our vast

knowledge of these opportunities will help us

recommend the method of sale that stands

to deliver optimal results for your property,

whether that’s by auction, private sale or

expression of interest.

Here’s what our clients had to say

Our commitment to providing premium service to our clients is more than just talk

Our clients always come first. We pride

ourselves on doing everything in our power

to ensure that the sale of your property is as

smooth and successful as possible. If we say

we’re going to call you with an update you can

be sure we’ll call. But don’t just take our word

for it, read what others have to say about us.

Georgina, we thank you for the fantastic result you achieved for our apartment. We were relatively confident that the apartment would achieve a good result. We are delighted that we have engaged you to handle our apartment and would strongly recommend you to anyone considering selling their property.

From the start we were happy with Georgina, she met with us and asked us what we wanted to achieve, and she patiently observed every aspect of the property and advised us on marketing options and possible strategy. Georgina had made the whole process of selling our home so easy, what should have been a very stressful experience turned out to be a care free positive experience.

We were amazed by Georgina’s honesty, ethical work practice and true passion in her work, she is a true professional, and her communication skills are amazing, she really looked after and took care of every detail for us.

We were greatly impressed with Georgina’s successful sales record in the CBD and had received good references from friends which had also used her services to sell their properties.

We were expecting the apartment to take several months to sell. The price you negotiated on our behalf was beyond our expectations and you achieved that result within a week of the property being listed with you.

Thank you very much for your superb assistance during the sale of my property. You’ve certainly made it simple and easy.

Thank you so much Georgina the speed, simplicity and success of our involvement with you has been a pleasure, which others have failed to emulate.
