WHAT PEOPLE SAY ABOUT

Stuart Benson

“Helpful and great person to relate with and is one of the top agents in Hobart Stuart stands out well above the agents from other Real Estate Companies in Tasmania who don’t respond or care. Stuart was always available for questions and make the purchase so much easier. Keep up the excellent work Stuart.”

Eric Romeike

“Thank you Stuart for selling our hobby farm! It was a great outcome, and a pleasure to have you working so hard to obtain a sale.”

Barry & Jo Smith

“Stuart is prepared to go out of his way, and willing to put the extra hours in to achieve successful results. He has a very friendly nature, and with his advice led to a very successful outcome of the sale of our property.

I have already recommended him to others.”

Royce Darling

“We found Stuart to be very competent and of the highest integrity and would happily have him do our next sale.”

Dave & Anne Griffiths

“This property was my first home and later a rental investment, so the decision to sell didn’t come easily. I found the process to be very smooth and Stuart kept me up to date with all information. There was interest in the property from day one and Stuart provided excellent service in order to get the best result for me. I highly recommend Stuart for a transparent, straight forward and easy sale of your property.”

Alex Marshall

“Stuart was chosen from three agents. He was selected because he willingly answered all my questions, he is personable, knows his area, and never failed to keep in touch. I think he has found the right couple for my house and I can relax about the sale. I am happy that I chose Stuart.”

Wendy Andrew

“Purchasing my first house was scary enough let alone purchasing a property interstate sight unseen. Thankfully Stuart made it relatively pain free.

Great communication really helped speed things along and I felt totally supported every step of the way.”

Tegan Morgan

“After carefully scrutinising four different real estate agents for the job of selling our home we chose Stuart Benson from Petrusma. Stuart immediately showed interest and professionalism in taking on the task of selling our home. I am not sure what or how Stuart came to the end result but all that matters is he achieved the result in a very short time with little or no fuss. Because of this, I would recommend Stuart Benson to all.”

Ronald Webb

“A good communicator with whom we both felt comfortable; he was not forceful and showed patience and tolerance with the multiple questions that were asked, always responding in a prompt manner. When discussing our plans for the property, he also contributed sensible ideas that we believe will add value to the property in the future.”

Bruce McDermott

It was an absolute pleasure to work with Stuart.

Stuart and his team went above and beyond and exceeded our expectations in every way. Throughout the whole process he was very professional, diligent and his communication was excellent (keeping us in the loop).

Real Estate Royals.

Absolutely thankful I had Stuart and Emily on board to sell my Moonah property. Everything was beyond professional with these two, the open homes, communication, it was all just effortless for me as a seller. Even the presentation of all the offers that came in, was done so in an educational and seamless way which made my decision, a much more easy and yet confident one. I have seen many other agent teams in action at many home opens across Hobart, and Stuart and Emily are on a completely different level. So thrilled with my sale thanks to them!

Belinda Taranaki

A great experience & a great result.

It was a great pleasure working with Stuart and his professional team. Stuart came with well researched details and knowledge of our area, and had a confident plan and strategy that proved to be spot on in every way, which resulted in a very smooth sale of our home.

We highly recommend this team!

Alice Richardson

1018 Kellevie Road, Kellevie

Well above our expectations, yet again!

We recently asked Stuart Benson to sell our rental unit in Midway Point receiving a great service and even better outcome and price. On this basis, we requested Stuart’s services once again to sell our family home, also in Midway Point.

I can only say that we were both blown away when Stuart presented the offers to us! Several were over the revised price that we hoped to achieve, and one, which we excepted, would be a new record for the suburb!

We can’t recommend Stuart enough, both for his professionalism and knowledge of the industry and Hobart real estate market.

Richard & Sharon Woodman

18 Caitlin Court, Midway Point

I found Stuart to easily be one of the best, if not the best real estate agent in Hobart.

This

Stuart took this listing on during the pandemic and kept me informed and up to date. Despite no access to the property he was able to get several offers.

I most appreciate Stuart’s honesty. He would advise against accepting ‘poor’ offers and would work hard to get a better one. I can truly say he works for his vendor and not for the commissions. Appreciate the hard work!

Kevin Yu

1 South Parade, Rokeby

is the second property Stuart has sold for me!

Stuart was easy to contact and made us feel very relaxed and comfortable throughout the whole process. His knowledge of the property market and ability to market the house appropriately achieved a great outcome in a very short amount of time.

He was pro-active in his communication with us and we would have no hesitation recommending Stuart!

Sam & Katie Bradford

12 Mariah Crescent, Oakdowns

We couldn’t be happier with the result Stuart was able to achieve for us.

Courteous, professional, knowledgeable.

Lovely agent to deal with. Considerate, with a great manner and knowledge of his profession.

Carolyn Audet

11257 Tasman Highway, Little Swanport

His service goes over & above what is required of an agent.

If you are thinking of selling your property, or even buying, Stuart Benson at Petrusma is the agent to see! His communication and knowledge is outstanding, extremely helpful with issues and information, he is basically available 24/7 and there when you need him.

I have no issue in recommending him to anyone and would definitely use him in future for selling or purchasing. Well done Stuart!

Damien Rieusset 31 Glebe Hill Road, Howrah
