David specialises in the sale of period homes across Stonnington, with a particular focus on Victorian and Edwardian properties in Armadale, Malvern, Prahran, and Windsor. His work centres on character homes, family residences, and tightly held inner-suburban streets where nuance, pricing accuracy, and buyer psychology play a critical role in the final result.
As an auctioneer, David is known for a calm, controlled, and decisive style. He is regularly entrusted with competitive and high-stakes auctions, where his ability to read buyer behaviour, manage momentum, and communicate clearly under pressure helps vendors extract maximum value — even in complex or shifting market conditions.

Their campaigns are defined by disciplined pricing strategy, thoughtful presentation advice, and a clear plan for engaging the most motivated buyers in the market.
Much of David’s work comes from repeat clients and referrals, reflecting a reputation built on transparency, sound advice, and consistent outcomes. Vendors value his straightforward approach, local knowledge, and ability to guide them through what is often one of the most significant decisions they will make.
