Stephen Bunday - Local Real Estate Agent Review Detail

I have known Stephen Bunday for many years and have bought and sold properties with him. Stephen sold our property recently and the campaign was a great success. The Bunday team are amazing and were a pleasure to deal with. I would encourage anyone who is selling their home to give Stephen a call.

It was a great experience working with Stephen and his team.  They were highly organised, professional and kept us informed at every point.  They were polite and went beyond what was expected in supporting us every step of the way.

Stephen is a sales professional and has sold a number of properties for me over several  years , he knows how to negotiate the sale when he has a ' live ' prospect

Stephen always gave us prompt feedback on visitors to our home and made the experience as stress free as possible. Hooker was very efficient and ultimately effective at selling our house. I would have no hesitation in recommending him.

Stephen Bunday and his team function like a well-oiled machine.  They have every detail prepared and they put it into practice with skill and professionalism.  The intricacies of real estate are explained clearly and no detail is too small to mention.  Each member of the team has a friendly and helpful approach to their relationship with their clients.  I would recommend the team to anyone without hesitation.

I had a great experience selling with Stephen and his team. He was professional, proactive, and regularly kept me informed throughout the process of selling. I wholeheartedly recommend him!

I am absolutely wrapped with Stephen Bunday & his PA Alexandra Paterson. Not only did they get a fantastic result in next to no time, they kept me informed every step of the way. I couldn’t be happier with the service I received & you won’t be disappointed if you decide to sell with Stephen Bunday & the team @ LJ Hooker Dickson. Cannot recommend highly enough.

Stephen has a lot of experience in the Canberra Inner North market, a relaxed clear and concise communication style. He kept me informed during the sales process and achieved a good price in a difficult market for sellers.

Our experience with Stephen, Brendan and Alexander was outstanding from the moment we called their office for an appraisal. Their communication throughout the campaign process was second to none, with emails and calls returned quickly, and any questions and issues that arose with the sale swiftly and professionally managed. Stephen's extensive contact book and experience in the inner north was also a huge bonus, with comprehensive feedback received about all potential buyers. Most importantly, Stephen and his team delivered a sales result that was beyond our expectations after running a seamless auction process, while being reassuring and honest throughout. 'Team Bunday' is a very smooth operation, and I have no hesitation in recommending them to any future seller.

In a difficult market we decided to go with LJ Hooker and in particular, Stephen as we knew that having a very experienced agent was going to be important. Stephen was highly recommended by other locals – and for good reason. Selling a home at any time, is a major life event, and Stephen and his team were professional, responsive and trustworthy. I have never sold a house before, and the team at LJ Hooker patiently stepped us through every stage, every question (big and small) and every decision with the right balance of care and expertise. No hesitation to highly recommend.

Stephen was amazing! I was really dreading working with real estate agents, but he and his team were kind, helpful, reliable, and incredibly hard-working. It's a difficult market at the moment, but they managed to interest several buyers and get us a good price. They were informative and supportive throughout the process.

Stephen and 'Team Bunday' provided a highly professional, supportive, fully engaged and fabulous service in the sale of my home. I really couldn't have asked for more. The team is friendly, knowledgeable and great communicators and I think all parties got a fantastic result. Many thanks!

Stephen was accessible and supportive through the process . Much appreciated.
His advice  was spot on even if I resisted a bit.
His back up team were great .
I am certainly happy. Many Thanks! , Jean

Stephen and his team are like a well-oiled machine.  They listen accurately and respond promptly.  In our experience their advice was always professional and seemed grounded in decades of experience.  We expected to sign with an agent only to then find them much less responsive to our phone calls, concerns and questions; but this was not the case.  They stayed with us every step of the way and performed with a very high degree of professionalism and common sense.  There was no instance where we felt we were being talked down to or 'conned' into anything.  A sterling result given the industry can have a reputation of being shallow and full of con-artists.  We have no hesitation in recommending them to any future seller.

Absolutely fantastic both Stephen Bunday and his whole team where so friendly,professional, a total pleasure to have worked with them on the sale of my home.

Stephen always works hard to get the job done, and ensures that you get a result that you are happy with.  He is encouraging and he does not pressure you.   He is pragmatic, easy to deal with, and he has a great support team.
Stephen is a six star agent.

Stephen and his team were fantastic to work with. They were friendly, professional, organised, communicated well and overall exceeded our expectations. Thanks again Steve and team :)

Highly professional agent who almost certainly knows the inner north real estate market better than anyone else. The marketing of our property was handled very well and an excellent result was achieved (sale prior to auction).

Stephen  was very professional and helpful throughout the sales campaign. He was honest and supportive throughout this sales journey of mine. I would have no hesitation in recommending him to others.

I found Stephen to be very professional and well informed with what was happening with property sales especially in my area.  I was well informed from start to finish with the process of selling.  Will certainly recommend Stephen to anyone selling their property.

This was a tough sell for my family due to personal reasons and Stephen and his team showed patience, professionalism and kindness when we needed it most 😀

Stephen and his team provided an absolutely first class professional service in selling our family home. They were friendly and a genuine pleasure to work with. The team brought about a very satisfactory outcome. Thank you

Positive interaction. Excellent communicator. Immediate response. Knowledgeable. Only too willing to be of assistance.

Stephen and his team were absolutely fantastic. From the first assessment and valuation of the property, advice on how to best prepare it for sale, industry contacts, facilitating trade access, though to the inspections, inspection reports, then preparing us for auction. We are very happy to have had Stephen and his team help us through the process. We felt informed, never pressured, and well supported. Thanks again, we're sure to call on your services in the future.

Stephen, Alex and the team did a fantastic job in selling my property. I was provided accurate advice and assistance from the outset. Very responsive in terms of communication and negotiated challenges around selling during covid very well. Closure and follow up was excellent. I was really pleased. I can highly recommend Stephen and the team.

Fantastic service ! Best agents I have ever dealt with. Stephen was so helpful as was Alexandra and Brendan. They went above and beyond to help us get the house ready for open inspection. I could not recommend them high enough!

For most people, entering the property market is a very significant experience; Stephen and his team provided outstanding support and helped this journey to be a remarkable success. 

We cannot recommend Stephen highly enough. He helped us achieve an exceptional outcome which exceeded our expectations by a mile. (times 4)

We shortlisted Stephen to be our agent almost two years ago and after significant deliberation, we recently chose him to be our agent because of his: 

Passion for, commitment and experience at delivering the best outcomes for his clients
Outstanding customer service
Interest in building strong relationship with clients

We are delighted with our decision and we encourage any prospective sellers to select Stephen as their agent of choice. 

Tye and Ximena

We were selling my late mother's house, and, as we live in Deniliquin and could not get to Canberra because of the Covid shut down, we worried that it would be a difficult undertaking.
Stephen Bunday and his team at LJ Hooker were so helpful, enthusiastic and professional and communicated so well with us throughout the process.They even organised the lawn mowing and house cleaning! We were very happy with the price they got for us and would recommend them to every one.

EXCELLENT COMMUNICATION.
REACHED THE PRICE EXPECTED.

Steve’s reassuring manner, professional market knowledge & ethics made the whole sales process a much less daunting experience than we had anticipated.
Our trust in Steve’s advise & judgement has rewarded us immensely.
We are so very thankful & happy to have had such an accomplished real estate agent.

From start to finish Stephen and his team were outstanding. They not only achieved an incredible result at auction, they were there supporting us all the way through the selling campaign. We see ourselves as very fortunate that we selected Stephen and his team as our agent - we could not recommend them too highly.
