"Fantastic Customer Service, the best realestate option I have ever experienced. Off Market sale.
Our property located in the Inner West of Sydney sold Off Market in a matter of hours, such a good option recommended by Alex. Also a very good sale price! Give Alex or the team a call if you are buying or selling. Very easy property transaction and I have done quite a few over the years."
David & Mark - Marrickville
"Very happy with Alex and his teams professional approach, their market knowledge and strategies. Alex kept us informed thru regular comms via phone, email and face to face meetings. I couldn't be more happy with the outcome of the sale of our property."
Louie - Marrickville
"We found Alex to be warm, friendly, honest and genuine. While he represented the interests of the owner, he gave us every opportunity to buy the home we were after."
Mark & Catherine - Marrickville
"Alex recently sold our house in Marrickville. From the outset he was professional, helpful and focussed on delivering the best outcome for us. Alex and Kate did a great job and we were very pleased with our sale result. Would recommend them highly to anyone."
Carol-Anne & Grant - Marrickville
"Honest, professional. friendly, understanding, willing to listen, easy to communicate with, and overall a great agent and bloke. The same adjectives apply to his offsider, Angie."
Gill & Roz - Gladesville
"I met Alex when he sold a house in my area way above my expectations. It wasn’t just the result but that he seemed clear on the value of the house and was guiding prospective buyers towards that outcome. Not just the ‘let’s see what the market brings’ view of many other agents. I spent a week interviewing the key agents in the area and did not find any that were better than Alex on results or commission options. Alex has experience doing up houses to sell and was able to guide me on everything from the paint colour to where to spend and what not to bother with in the house presentation. He is a perfectionist and ensures every detail is attended to. The house looked amazing and drew big crowds on the first open. During the sale process Alex was in constant communication with me. We sold before the second open at $100k above similar houses in the area, during COVID. I had bought a house twice the size in the area for $25k more than the price I sold my house for - a dream scenario for any seller. I would strongly recommended talking to Alex before making a decision on an agent. A nice guy, hard working and is getting some of the best results possible in the market."
Pamela - Enmore
"Alex was the lead agent from in the sale of our home in Lilyfield. He is very professional and his communication skill were exceptional keeping us updated on a daily basis. Selling a home is a nerve-racking experience and Alex was able to take us through the stages in a very reassuring way. His negotiation skills were also highlighted when we came to an agreement on the final price. We would definitely refer anyone wanting to sell or buy a home to go through Alex with complete confidence."
Tina & Mauro - Lilyfield
"It was great dealing with Alex and his team. Alex has demonstrated his market knowledge around the area in the first encounter. Throughout the negotiation process, he has demonstrated his professionalism and fairness, which had removed a lot of unnecessary stress that usually created in this process. Alex and his team have made this process easier for us. I would highly recommend Alex and his team."
Nori & Kitty - Gladesville
"Friendly, courteous & professional.
Alex and Angie were excellent throughout the entire process from the first inspection to the auction and celebrating when we were the highest bidder!
I would highly recommend Alex and Angie."
Todd & Alex - Marrickville
"Alex and Kate. Kate and Alex. However you say it, they’re a great team. I’ll be forever grateful to them for the excellent job they did of selling my house in Marrickville."
Charles - Marrickville
"I met Alex during our first property inspection. He was there to explain everything and to answer any question we had. He had enough time, he was friendly but very professional, trusted and knowledgeable. We received all requested documents with follow up call to be sure everything arrived; we exchanged many phone calls during this period, some of them late at night to allow us consultation with our son in London. At the end we end up purchasing this property. It was such a great pleasure to work with Alex – he is an excellent Agent."
Bobba - Alexandria
"Alex and Kate were indispensable in securing the sale of my home. Alex confidently responded to the challenges Covid 19 presented. Predicting the impact on the market a sale before auction was achieved. I would have no hesitation in recommending Alex and Kate as they went over and above my expectations."
Michele - Enmore
"Alex Mastoris surpassed all my expectations
Words cannot express how wonderful Alex made the whole experience for me! He made a very stressful and overwhelming situation so easy for me. Alex is very professional, a great communicator and went above and beyond as a real estate agent, surpassing all my expectations."
Evy - Gladesville
"A very professional and friendly service provided at all time. His whole team performed beyond expectation at every step in the process from initial meeting to auction day. Alex’s interpersonal skills and accumulated knowledge assisted in maximising our final sale price. We highly recommend him to any future client."
Peter & Kate - Dulwich Hill
"I CAN TRUELY RECOMMEND Alex Mastoris as a professional agents to sell your house/unit. He will achieve the best results for you. Overall, his management is brilliant. Alex will focus and commit himself totally to a successful outcome In my case, I highly recommend Alex Mastoris as your chosen Real Estate Agent. Alex is amazing, a truely professional who is very competent and committed to a total management plan from the beginning to the successful outcome. "
Pauline - Marrickville
"Alex has a tremendous attitude and was more than happy going the extra mile to achieve a great result for our campaign.
I would highly recommend Alex and use him again if the opportunity presented itself."
Luke & Tash - Enmore
"Fantastic Sale experience!
Alex made the whole process of selling our house easy, stress free, smooth and simple. We needed to freshen up the house and Alex had all the professionals required lined up and ready to start as soon as we said "go". The house was ready to go to market in just over a week and it was sold at optimum price 3 weeks later, which allowed us to move fast and buy our dream home. Alex is proactive, involved, straight forward and provided us with daily updates. We could not have had a better result without Alex’s help. I cannot recommend Alex highly enough. I rate him 10 out 5 stars, exceptional service!"
Flavia & Brett - Marrickville
"Confident, knowledgeable.
Alex knows the Inner West. Read the market well. Put forward a plan & exceeded it. A respectful professional the whole way."
Simone & Sam - Enmore
"We hired Alex because he’s hard-working, very professional and he knows the inner west market well. Alex was confident he could sell the property for the price we wanted and in the time-frame we needed. He communicated to us through the campaign and delivered on what he promised. Alex gets the job done and we’re really happy with the outcome."
Nikki & Alex - Marrickville
"Seriously what I liked about Alex and Angie was that they weren't pushy and they listened and kept us informed every step of the way. Most of all genuine and personal it felt like I knew them for years I will and have recommended them to people that I know and don't know."
Helen - Marrickville
"I can't rate Alex highly enough! He was fastidious, enthusiastic and incredibly helpful. He was very professional, capable and had great attention to detail. I felt the sale of my house was in very good hands and in the end I got the result I wanted. Alex and the Cobden and Haysin team were fantastic. I have no hesitation in recommending Alex and the team."
Louise - Marrickville
"Selling our home was not an easy decision, one we had procrastinated over for years. We entrusted Alex because he was patient, honest and genuine. We were impressed with his down to earth, yet very professional approach. Alex and Kate made the whole process feel easy, especially in preparing the house for sale by facilitating the small but significant improvements that ensured our house presented at its best. Throughout the campaign, we were kept well-informed and ultimately got a great result. We highly recommend Alex if you are selling your property in the inner west and surrounds. He definitely knows the area and understands what the buyers are looking for."
Belinda & Caleb - Marrickville
"Purchasing this property on behalf of my clients with Alex, was both stress free and professional. Alex is a true gentleman and as a Buyer's Agent I continue to be in touch with him regarding listings and further opportunities between Cobden & Hayson and Trelease Associates.
Alex's communication was clear and prompt which made it possible for the fast pace of this exchange to take place. I look forward to further deals with Alex and his team and thank him again for his friendly nature and result based actions, as always!"
Kimberley - Enmore
"Alex was a pleasure to work with. We made the decision to sell our house quite quickly and interviewed three agents. Alex was the clear stand-out. He's a great communicator, had a solid plan for selling our house and was a complete professional throughout the process. I wouldn't hesitate to sell a property or buy one from Alex in the future."
Ben & Alexandra - Marrickvile
"Many of my previous experiences with real estate agents I was left with a feeling of disappointment and distrust. I successfully purchased this property with Alex and it was the first time I’d felt like I’d been told the truth by an agent. I highly recommend his services and knowledge of the market, you can’t go wrong."
Luke - Marrickville
"Alex and Kate provided a complete service which took all of the potential pain away during the pre-sale, sale and post-sale processes. They’re both super professional and easy to do business with. Alex knows his stuff when it comes to the discussions and negotiations with potential buyers. We’ve used them before and wouldn’t hesitate to use them again if the need arose. Highly recommended for sellers or buyers."
Steve - Stanmore
"
Trustworthy, caring, knowledge of the area, proactive and easy to work with.
Alex and his team were hands-down wonderful agents to work with. They made the process of preparing my house for sale, and the selling process incredibly smooth and hassle free. I truly believe Alex got me the best result possible, and he worked so hard to get a great sale price. The entire process took only weeks, and the house needed significant work to get it in good shape, which Alex handled from start to finish. No fuss, no hassle, no worries! Cobden and Hayson were fantastic - they were a dream to work with. Even during these pandamic times, Alex was able to find terrific, good-value contractors to do everything that needed to be done. I recommmend Alex very highly."
Yvette - Marrickville
"Alex Mastoris came to our attention as he had recently sold properties close by. Personable and energetic with a well-defined sales plan, he got the listing. He brought with him a builder at the same time and together we went through the property looking at ways to improve its presentation for sale as it had been rented out for three years since we renovated. During the sale period Alex kept us up to date virtually daily on the individual buyers coming through and rated them in there seriousness of intent, giving us a good insight into who was who and what numbers they were talking. On multiple occasions he showed buyers through outside of the usual open for inspection times.
By the end of the sales campaign we were comforted by knowing that no stone had been left unturned to market the property to anyone looking for a 2 bedroom house in the inner west, then it was down to the market to come up with its response which we could either accept or reject. It was a strong result for us and we are happy with it. I was there when Alex worked with the photographer for hours reviewing and repeating numerous shots in the changing afternoon light and then the stylist that he'd recommended for our house did a fabulous job of dressing the house to bring it out at its best. I have mentioned Alex as a potential agent to friends and family to sell with. "
Nick & Briony - Marrickville
"Alex was easy to deal with and professional at all times. His advice on prepping the house for sale was invaluable, practical and not overtly stylized. The tradesmen he recommended were also excellent. We felt Alex had a real appreciation for our house and our situation in selling after a very long process of restoration and many happy years of family life. We would recommend Alex and his team at Cobden & Hayson without reservation."
Libby & Bruce - Stanmore
"Alex was recommended to me by a neighbor. Unlike other agents I'd met, Alex was never pushy, had a lot of great knowledge on the street and took the time to listen to us. Off the bat, I sensed that he was trustworthy and hardworking, which he was. Even after the sale of our house, Alex has remained in contact to offer guidance and advice on buying our next house. Very caring and authentic agent. Highly recommended."
Keiran - Leichhardt
"We were extremely happy with Alex and would recommend him to absolutely anyone. He made what could have been a difficult thing very pleasant and easy experience. Thank you Alex for all that you have done for us"
Teresa - Marrickville
"The dust has settled and my boxes are unpacked in my new home. Now I’m have the time to reflect on my experience with Alex Mastoris and Cobden Hayson. I had the pleasure of working with
Alex for over a year before I actually sold my home. I contacted CH asking for someone to visit to give me an idea of it’s worth and Alex was the person who answered the phone. From the minute he stepped into my home, I knew he was the person I wanted to work with. There’s no pretense or affectation. Alex is a genuinely lovely person. He gave me honest answers to questions and worked with me every step of the way. When it came time to put the house on the market, Alex and his team mate, Angie worked their magic to present the house in its best light. I was kept informed every single step of the way. Alex did a great job of getting the price I wanted never veering from the end goal. I could leave a 5 star rating and leave it at that, but it wouldn’t convey the deep appreciation I have for everything Alex did for me."
Regina - Leichhardt
"Alex and his colleague Kate could not have been more professional and helpful, during an extraordinarily tricky time to sell a property. We have used Alex before and wouldn’t hesitate to do so again if we were selling a property in the inner west."
Steve & Jenny - Camperdown
"Alex's proactive approach to communication, market research/knowledge and process amounted to a great result for the sale of our property. He was confident, to the point and transparent throughout the campaign. We would highly recommend Alex and Kate as agents."
Kate & Ash - Marrickville
"One of the good guys!
Alex was a fantastic throughout the whole process.
As the property was unoccupied during the selling campaign, Alex was more than happy to open the property for us at any time of day without hesitation.....even on his day off!
I would highly recommend Alex across any facet of the real estate business.
We will certainly be calling Alex in a few years when we are ready for our next move."
Damien & Briohny - Leichhardt
"Alex was an extremely professional and detailed agent. He kept us updated as he promised and his communication skills were exceptional throughout the sale process. A pleasure to work with him."
Josie - Marrickville
"I can’t recommend Alex highly enough. He and the company put together and outstanding campaign. What probably impressed me the most was that all the people I know who visited the house for viewings made a point of saying how impressed they were with Alex and Angie."
Robert - Marrickville
"Alex was a pleasure to deal with. Excellent communication and very professional, very honest and a really good person. I would use him again and would highly recommend him."
George - Marrickville
"We interviewed several agents before choosingAlex and William. We chose them because they were the fastest to respond to our enquiry, the best prepared when they arrived, they knew the area, they were friendly and easy to deal with, they were good with sales and marketing strategy and they gave a realistic valuation of the property (some agents wouldn't commit to a valuation). We were glad we chose them - they kept to the agreed schedule, kept us informed at all times, managed the open house inspections well and advised us along the way on all pre-auction offers. We ended up selling before the auction, on their advice, and we believe that we got the best price we could in a falling market. They are absolute professions and I have no hesitation in recommending them."
Ian - Marrickville
"Alex provided a fantastic service from start to finish. From helping us set up house to look amazing through to securing a great price for the house. He was always available to answer any of our questions and provided fantastic feedback on the campaign. We would highly recommend Alex."
Chris & Sarah - Ashfield
"Our experience working with Alex was extremely positive.
Alex showed great tenacity and positivity throughout the project despite the market conditions.
Alex communicated very clearly on an ongoing basis and most of all we valued his transparency and commitment to getting the best result for us."
Kate & Peter - Leichhardt
"Alex was so professional and certainly new the current market and provided all the guidance I needed. Nothing was any trouble to Alex. He made me feel confident in all the decisions and kept me informed and up to date through the total experience. Thank you Alex your are an asset to your client and would recommend you to anyone."
Gail - Gladesville
"Alex and Kate recently marketed and sold my house. They were totally professional and the selling processes flowed smoothly, positively and friendly. From Alex giving me solid advice on marketing the house, painting and renovating to the actual selling and achieving an excellent financial result. I was always kept up to date on progress from Alex and Kate. He was honest and realistic in his responses during the selling process and ready to answer any questions I might have. A big thank you to them."
Julia - Leichhardt
"Considering all Covid restrictions in place during the sale of our house Alex and his team worked very hard from morning to evening everyday including public holiday It was impressive Always answered calls and emails Got us a great price after showing the house to many groups. Thank you!"
Mateusz - Marrickville
"Alex is knowledgeable and dedicated. His communication through the sales process was excellent. He did everything he promised, and through his hard work and skill, he arranged a sale that exceeded our expectations. I would not hesitate to recommend Alex for any prospective vendor."
Sarah & Bourke - Campsie
"Thanks to Alex and Angie for their help with my purchase. Friendly and responsive, would happily go through them again in the future."
Ben - Marrickville
"Alex and the Cobden & Hayson team were thoroughly professional in the way they managed the sale of our home. We interviewed four sets of agents and contracted Alex because he understood our needs, and was responsive to our requests for information. We felt we had the resources, information, and knowledge we needed to make informed decisions and were comfortable with our decision-making at each step of the sales process. I recommend Alex and his team."
Louise & Tim - Marrickville
"We had an incredible experience with Alex and the team at Cobden & Hayson. From the start we found Alex to be honest, open and communicative. We were able to trust his guidance and instincts for how we should approach selling our house, and we were very comfortable leaving the sale completely in his hands. Alex handled the cosmetic improvements, brought in a great stylist and ensured our house looked its best for the sale. He also gave us a clear strategy for the sale, which included timing, price guidance, off-market viewings and marketing. Throughout the sale Alex was responsive, sensitive to our needs, respectful of our neighbours and always focused on the best possible outcome. Ultimately our house sold for well above our expectations and we could not be happier. Thank you Alex!"
Nic & Lara - Enmore
"From Maria and I feeling sad, depressed and overwhelmed with the enormity and reality of selling the house, the amazing team of Alex Mastoris and Angie Riad introduced us to and gently ingrained into us a joy, a positivity and a confidence in what we were doing and how to go about it. They didn't have us deny how we had advised them of our we felt, but if anything, after having listened and listened to both Maria and I, to our stories of her parents, of who they were, what they had done for the family and everyone else over the years and all that they stood for, they helped us see and realise that we could make Maria's parents up above ever so proud in giving it the most amazing, beautiful and personal send-off. The effort inside and outside the house in preparing for sale, was made all the more achievable and realistic by the up-to-date, 'in-the-loop' know-how and savviness of both Alex and Angie. It was very clear, even early on, to both Maria and I that these two professionals, weren't here to grab easy clientele and thence, a decent sale; but rather, that they did very genuinely, have our best interest at heart, and that they sincerely and honestly, did want to get 'the best result' humanly possible for us. Alex and Angie, despite the at times cloudy and confronting financial chess board of 'to make a move or not ..... and if so, which piece', certainly didn't disappoint Maria and I. We did achieve a favourable result, and as a matter of fact, the final outcome was above what we'd been relayed the most likely outcome/result.
It goes without say, that Alex and Angie are the most professional, plus friendly without being over familiar, agents we could've hoped for. During this entire process of saying goodbye to the house, they at all times were mindful of the sentimentality and attachment Maria and I had to the house, yet somehow, helped us through the process, not with a mental and businesslike decorum, but rather, with an understanding and patient heart."
Maria - Marrickville
"We chose to go with Alex as our selling agent after meeting him and liking his approach when we were prospective buyers and I’m so glad we did. He was straightforward, gave us great advice, and he and Kate helped with every aspect of our sale and move (including helping us find removalists during lockdown) and got us a great result in our sale."
Sarah & Ian - Enmore
"After a strong first week of open houses, the campaign was affected by the COVID19 lockdown. However, despite these difficult and unprecedented circumstances with buyer interest dropping off at a worrying pace, Alex managed to achieve a sales result that left us not only relieved to have sold at all, but actually more than happy.
I believe this was largely due to Alex' excellent ability to understand, and adapt to, changing market environments and buyer behaviour. His interpretations and proposed actions to adjust the campaign were spot on every single time. Communication was flawless and very friendly throughout the campaign.
I'd happily recommend Alex to anyone selling in the Inner West."
Michael - Annandale
"He is the man
I am shocked I am actually recommending a real estate agent.
He did a great job
Good to meet people that care"
Paul - Enmore
"Once we commenced the process of finding an agent to sell our family home-we picked 3 agents to give us an appraisal. Alex was the third one, and by far the best in our opinion based on gut feeling. We thought he was the most energetic, open and professional that would be honest and reliable when dealing with us. Alex kept us totally up to date and informed during this stressful time, feedback virtually immediate to all our queries during the campaign."
Mark - Marrickville
"I first met Alex around 2013 in Haberfield when we got talking about the real estate market and general housing prices in the inner west. Over the years Alex would call me to chat about Haberfield, the real estate market and life in general. Alex's calls were always a friendly chat, a genuine hello and a show of interest in how life was going. There was never a sale's pitch. Alex shows a genuine interest in people and is not focused on the money machine which so many agents are, he builds strong, long-term lasting relationships and always has an honest, respectful and geniune approach. In 2021 when I was ready to sell my house, Alex was my first and only choice and it was obvious to me he would be the agent I would be calling on. Once engaged Alex showed his worth through his knowledge of the market, sales approaches, dealing with potential buyers and overall what was in the best interest of the property and me as the seller. I would highly recommend Alex to anyone and I would go out of my way to recommend him to family and friends. I can see a long and fruitful friendship between the 2 of us into the future."
Michael - Haberfield
"Alex's honesty, enthusiasm and total transparency put us immediately at ease. His energy, attention to detail and genuine care factor were a refreshing change to our past property dealings. This combination resulted in a record building sale and a sale price far beyond our expectations.
Alex is without a doubt a true real estate professional."
Andrew & Francini - Rushcutters Bay
"Alex was very knowledgeable in the Leichhardt area and took great care of us during the sale of our property. He knew what would help sell our house and consulted with us on how we can get the best results. It was a stressful time to sell our house but Alex's experience and calmness definitely helped us get a great result.
"
Justin & Alex - Leichhardt
"When one thinks of Agents, they generally think of the burn and churn mentality associated with agents in obtaining their commissions.. They come in, promise the world, and then down play it for a quick commission. Not Alex… Alex was emotionally and physically invested in the process of representing us in selling our main asset. The sale was during a relatively rare occurrence in the Sydney real estate market, with lots of downward pressure.
Alex’s approach to Real Estate, is that of integrity, professionalism, transparency, honesty and above all, all round friendliness. I would not hesitate in referring Alex as an agent for your real estate requirements."
Andrei & Shellie - Lewisham
"As a Buyers Agent, I spend my life meeting with - and negotiating with - real estate agents. I have worked in real estate for 11 years and I am happy to say that Alex and Angie both stand out amongst their competitors. They form a dynamic, supportive duo that go the extra mile for their clients and bend over backwards to make a deal happen. Alex is a great negotiator - and certainly gave me a run for my money! They facilitated an exchange at 9:30pm on a Wednesday night, much to the delight of my client and theirs. I wouldn't hesitate to buy from them, or encourage any of my clients in the inner-west to sell with them."
Josh Roth - Leichhardt
