Stuart's Reviews
We originally purchased our home through Stuart about 20 years ago. When selling recently, we had no hesitation choosing Stuart, Damien and the Skyline team again, and we definitely made the right choice.
With incredible local knowledge and a deep understanding of the market, Stuart and Damien are honest, professional and dedicated, while being genuine, friendly and caring. Throughout the auction campaign, we always knew what was happening, thanks to their outstanding communication skills.
Selling a family home of 20 years is difficult, yet Stuart and Damien, made the entire process seamless and stress free. With tireless work and dedication, together they achieved an auction result that exceeded all our expectations.
Stuart and Damien – thank you doesn’t really seem enough!
With a quick turnaround before Christmas, Stuart was able to reach a viable outcome within such a short time frame, in a difficult market. His commitment and dedication to the cause was evident as he managed to close the deal whilst on holiday with no phone access. It's a true credit to Stuart and his team for achieving a great outcome for all concerned. I would highly recommend Stuart as he will be there with you right until the end...with dedication, honesty and integrity.
To Skyline Real Estate
I would like to express my sincere thanks for the way the team at Skyline Real Estate handled the sale of my mothers home. This is the second home that Skyline have sold for us and in particular I would like to thank Stuart Bath who at a difficult time made the whole process extremely easy.
Stuart is a consummate professional and there is no high pressure sales techniques ever applied, he is caring and understanding while being across all aspects of the sale. He was first to respond with his proposal and covered all aspects of the sale and the proposed target markets. The house was sold in under a week and a half and we secured a fabulous and fair price for the property.
I can’t thank Stuart enough for his professionalism and would recommend him to anyone looking to sell there home you won’t be disappointed.

We had a first-rate experience selling our house with Stuart Bath of Skyline Real Estate. Stuart’s knowledge of real estate in our local area and the current real estate market helped us reach the result we were after. We would recommend Stuart and Skyline Real Estate for anyone selling their property.
Dear Stuart
We have known each other for over 30 years and my wife and I are so appreciative of everything you have done for us.
You are an amazing real estate agent and have always helped us when we’ve asked you too.
Thank you so much for your help with buying / selling / renting our properties over the years.
The most recent being the sale of our investment property in Corbett Place, Belrose.
We appreciate your patience and expertise. Your insight was extremely valuable to us and we don’t think we could have achieved the results we did, without you.
As a satisfied customer all these years, you are a highly recommended real estate agent, being honest, sincere, truthful and reliable.
Thanks again for helping us.
Kind regards
Kris & Berta.
I have always found Stuart to be a standout amongst real-estate agents for his honesty, deep knowledge of the market, reliability, and enthusiasm for making sure all dealings with him are fair. As previously a buyer, then landlord and now a seller through him, I am impressed that he will always help you make the decision that is best for you.
Stuart and his team have been very helpful from the word "GO".
His patience, good listener, advice and guidance of the local area
are the factors that assist in my lifestyle changes to downsize.
Highly recommend Stuart to any locals who intend to sell the property.
We handed Stuart Bath a real challenge when he took on the mission to sell our late relative’s property, which had deteriorated markedly.
The result achieved when the property was quickly sold was outstanding even under the existing buoyant market conditions.
Many thanks to Stuart for his fine work and negotiation skills

His local knowledge of the area and experience was invaluable in achieving a great result
Stuart was great during the whole selling experience, so easy to work with and very professional. His local knowledge of the area and experience was invaluable in achieving a great result. I would highly recommend Stuart and Skyline Real Estate.
I found Stuart and his staff of Skyline R.E. to be the best agent I have dealt with since becoming a landlord at 19 yrs old , they have been so helpful and professional to me and found their services better than any others I have previously deal with . Stuart was pretty much right on the mark when it came time for me to sell and his evaluation of the local area was spot on , I am more than happy with Stuart and all his staff which at times went beyond their duty to assist .
I first met Stuart when I bought this property in 2008 and I was immediately impressed by his people skills. When it comes to sales people we know that some can drive us away rather than attract. However, Stuart has that unique ability to draw people and he knows how to bring out the best qualities in a property to make a sale. Also, I chose Stuart because I knew that he had years of experience and on meeting him for the second time to sell my property I could see he had a lot of insight with how buyers behave. He was always prompt to answer any queries that I had and I felt confident that all would work out. I am extremely grateful for his concern for my circumstances, and have recommended him to all my friends if they wish to sell their property in the future. Thank you to all at Skyline who made this possible!
Stuart provided sound guidance through the whole sale process. Stuart was informative and transparent and kept us in the loop at every stage with regular communication. It was clear he knew the Beacon Hill area very well and the potential buyers of the property. The results certainly proved his expertise.
I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Stuart as a trustworthy and competent agent.
The property sold was originally purchased through Stuart more than twenty years ago, and we have developed full confidence on his knowledge and honesty focused on the local market over years. Stuart provided objective and unbiased guidance reflecting the up-to-date situation in the chaining market condition, leading to the great result.
From the first time I met Stuart, when we were “selecting” an agent, I felt completely comfortable and at ease with him. He was very easy to talk to, and had a thorough knowledge of the current market. He kept us fully informed as the advertising and ‘open homes‘ progressed. He did everything possible to achieve our sale, in a relaxed and very professional way.
We originally purchased the property through Skyline and they managed this property while it was being tenanted. We found the whole Skyline team to be caring and professional.
With regards to the sale, Stuart was honest and regularly kept us up to date with what was going on. We would highly recommend Stuart and the Skyline team if you are looking at selling, buying or having your property managed by a real estate.
Their customer service really is exceptional.
Stuart made what could have been a very stressful time much more comfortable! True to his advertising, he kept us well informed throughout the sale process, contacting us every few days with an update all the way through to settlement and even beyond. His comprehensive knowledge of the local market and the way he engaged potential buyers helped us get a sale price right at the top end of the range for which we were aiming. We highly recommend Stuart and his team at Skyline Real Estate
Stuart was exceptional the whole way through the process. In the beginning we were only considering selling so he advised us of some things we could do around the house in case we wanted to go ahead and list the property. Stuart kept in touch keeping us up to date with the Market and was never pushy to get the listing. Once we went ahead and put the property on the market he kept us up to date every step of the way leading into the auction. I can't recommend Stuart highly enough,
Stuart was exceptional in his advice and support in preparing our property for sale. The sale process was interrupted by the collapse of the Sydney housing market (shortly after we first put our property on the market). Again Stuart was very helpful providing pragmatic advice and seamlessly arranging property management services by Skyline while we waited for the housing market to stabilise.
During this period Stuart provided us with valuable regular updates and market appraisals. The resumption of the sale process some 11 months later again was managed seamlessly by Stuart.
We lived out of the area and were reliant on Stuart taking care of local matters.
Having access to his list of potential buyers Stuart was able to very quickly have an impressive number of potential buyers view or property. The sale process was completed in a remarkably short time with my wife and I having no doubt that Stuart's ability and experience was at the heart of the success. In our view Stuart is a very genuine person and very capable real estate agent. We have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Stuart and the Skyline team to any person contemplating selling their home in the region.
From the first time we met Stuart he was very professional and genuine at all times. He was able to guide us through the process so we were very comfortable at every stage of the sale. He kept us totally informed every couple of days and in the end achieved a price that we were very happy with. Nothing was a problem for him at ant stage. We would highly recommend Stuart to any potential vendor.
Stuart's knowledge of the local market is excellent. Due to changing factors in the market between our initial conversation and actually going to market, Stuart suggested a change in strategy to ensure that we got the best result for the sale of our property.
Stuart was professional, understanding and helpful with our sale. We were kept up to date with prospective buyers and market feedback and extremely happy with the result he achieved on our behalf. We would highly recommend Stuart to anyone wanting to sell their home.
Stuart has been very professional, courteous, never pushy, and readily available. He has attended to our requests and dealt with them promptly. Our house was sold in a very short time, at what we think was a fair price in the current market. We would recommend Stuart services to anyone in this area, which he knows so well. Yours Faithfully
Stuart was very professional from start to end of the sale process, We interviewed 4 agents and decided to use Stuart to sell our property as he knew the market well, really listened and gave good advice about exactly how much to do to the property before sale. He responded quickly to all requests before and during the campaign and was able to supply valuable contacts to assist in getting the property ready. We followed his advice regarding offers and reserve. We were very happy with the result.
We could not have been happier with Stuart in selling our home. He was sensitive to the situation, kind and caring, took the time to listen and so very helpful with everything to to do with the sale. He knew the neighbourhood well and was confident in the price set. Stuart handled a large Open House with ease and negotiated the best price for us in a very short space of time. We would highly recommend Stuart (and also Michelle Smart who was also very compassionate).
Stuart has deep experience knowledge of his local market and & macro factors... and Stuart was responsive helpful at every step.....BUT what I really appreciated about Stuart is his honesty integrity. These have become banal 'buzz-words' - But in Stuarts case, these traits are authentic and immediately palatable. In my past dealings with agents, I've often wondered what tactics are being played, so it's a huge relief to know with Stuart that what you see if what you get'.

Stuart's many years of experience in the property market has been an enormous advantage
Stuart's many years of experience in the property market has been an enormous advantage to the sale of our property. His advice has been spot on. He has always made himself available for all our queries which has been very helpful. Stuart has been a very professional Agent; has always been very patient; very courteous whenever we have contacted him. We highly recommend him as an agent in selling your property. He always kept us 'in the loop' so we always were well informed. Thank you Stuart.
When I bought my house 6 years ago from Stuart at Skyline, I was very pleased with his level of service, then when it was time to sell it, I called Stuart back and he successfully sold it. He is a professional with a great knowledge of the real estate trends for our local market. I can only highly recommend him. A++
We were very happy to deal with Stuart. We found that his communication was excellent. He worked hard, was honest, approachable and always reachable anytime of the week. We were grateful for his advice in what was an unpredictable market. We would recommend Stuart to anyone in the area looking to buy or sell their property.
We purchased our house 21 years ago through Stuart at Skyline. We were impressed then in his local knowledge and professionalism so had no problem in using Stuart to sell our house. Stuart and the Skyline team have gone above and beyond and it has been a pleasure to be associated with them. We would highly recommend them to anyone looking to buy or sell.
Stuart is an incredible agent who is very friendly and professional.He is a very genuine and kind hearted person and will go the extra mile to achieve the best results.He is very experienced and knowledgeable and he makes everything very simple and transparent.I cannot recommend Stuart highly enough.
I met with six different agents in the process of choosing someone to help us with the sale of our house. Honestly, every cliche under the sun in that shortlist... Stuart was the ONLY person I felt would give us honest, informed, and down-to-earth guidance through this sometimes-stressful process. And so it was! He was always available to us for a chat, kept us up-to-date with buyer feedback, and gave good advice around every aspect of the sale of our house - from stylist to price guide to the auction day itself. Could not recommend him more highly.
Stuart managed the sale of our house in Frenchs Forest. We interviewed a lot of agents and he was by far the nicest, most straightforward and (seemingly!) honest. He knows the Northern Beaches markets, particularly Frenchs Forest, extremely well and had a lot of potential purchasers even before we put it onto the market. Once the campaign started, he was always good and thorough with communication, and even the difficult discussion regarding dropping asking price due to the rush of similar houses in the area on the market was done in a warm way. It turned out to be an excellent decision as it generated the extra interest we needed. In the run up to auction day Stuart was very patient going through all the options, strategies and potential outcomes with us. All in all, a great experience. I would recommend Stuart very highly.
Stuart and his Skyline team smoothed the way for Adrienne and myself as buyers of our new home whilst at the same time acting as they should, with the interests of their instructing sellers at heart. Skyline will be a top consideration for us when we sell
Stuart has worked tirelessly to promote the property and contact prospective buyers. The open for inspections and internet marketing generated a lot of buyer interest. Stuart's open line of communication between the vendor and purchasers resulted in a smooth sale. I thoroughly recommend Stuart Bath and Skyline Real Estate.
I cannot highly recommend Stuart highly enough. His humble and caring nature makes it so easy to deal with him.He is very knowledgeable and professional yet so down to earth and genuine. When I think of Real Estate only one name comes to mind - Stuart Bath! Amazing agent!
We had known Stuart for many years and had deliberated for many years about selling our house. Stuart was always available to talk about what was happening in the market and was encouraging and open with both our concerns and possibilities for our house and the timing of everything. Stuart even gave some great ideas about what we should major on with the sale and also what we should minor on. Vendors often think very differently to buyers and he kept us on track with our concerns and expectations. We believe one significant contribution of Stuarts regarding some renovation work boosted the final sale price. As our friends commented, ""That's why you pay agents commission, because they can negotiate and manage the sale where you just wouldn't have the skill being the vendor". We couldn't recommend Stuart highly enough. He was thoroughly professional, listened to us, was not at all arrogant or pushy, but extremely knowledgeable. For us there was never going to be a contest about who we gave our business to, it was always going to be Stuart Bath.
Our sale of 3 Sunlea Place Allambie Heights was conducted by Stuart Bath from Skyline Real Estate. Our family first purchased our home through Stuart over 20 years ago and we were sufficiently impressed on that occasion to naturally select him to act on its sale just a few months ago. Our decision to do so was justified many times as his patience and time spent with us on our inquiries was exceptional and his negotiating skills in the final stages secured for us a sale price which, with the changing market at the time, was an extremely good result. We would have no hesitation in recommending Stuart for any real estate matter as his integrity is beyond question.
I was extremely pleased with the management and outcome of the sale of my unit at Darley Street, Forestville. It was handled by Stuart Bath and the Skyline R/E team in a highly professional, caring and consistent manner. I thoroughly recommend Stuart and his team and will not hesitate in using their services again.
Stuart is easy to deal with and showed absolute respect for my privacy and the emotional impact of moving house. He made the whole process easy and non complicated. He is a great communicator which fostered trust in his business. This trust was reinforced further with the quick sale of the house and his knowledge of local persons to assist with the move. Stuart come with high credibility and I can recommend him to future buyers and sellers.
We had an excellent experience selling our house with Stuart Bath of Skyline Real Estate. Stuart's straight forward approach and his extensive knowledgeable about real estate, the local area and dealing with people helped us achieve a great result. Stuart gave us some valuable advice and kept us motivate to get our house ready for the open house. We would recommend Stuart and Skyline Real Estate for anyone looking to sell, manage their property, rent, or buy!
Thanks Stuart for his great communication and best knowledge of local market. Stuart and his team are trustworthy real estate agent who provided excellent professional services throughout my property searching, purchasing and investment property management. Strongly recommended!
Stuart has a lot of information about the local area which was great for us as we were not very familiar with the northern beaches before buying our house. He was also very accommodating and opened the house for an inspection at short notice. Much appreciated, Stuart. Thank you!
