Having made its first foray into NSW in 2021, the network is now ready to tackle the city’s capital.  

Longtime Victorian brand Hockingstuart will open an office in Bankstown, in the city’s south west, under the direction of neighbourhood local George Hourani.

Mr Hourani said the timing couldn’t be better to introduce a brand like Hockingstuart into the fast-growing Sydney enclave.

“Geographically located in the middle of Greater Sydney, Bankstown is experiencing rapid change with the new metro line, University of Sydney Bankstown campus and new hospital development putting us in good stead for the future,” he noted.

The Bankstown local said that the area was the perfect spot from which to launch the brand’s presence in the city.

“Having been in operation for over 35 years, Hockingstuart is a well-recognised Victorian brand with an expanding presence in New South Wales, making it the right fit to enter the growing Bankstown market,” Mr Hourani commented.

“I am proud to partner with a company that sees the vision of what we will be able to achieve together, and am confident that our strong customer service ethos and exceptional local knowledge will be the key to our success,” he added.

The office will service not only Bankstown but the neighbouring locations of Yagoona, Condell Park, Picnic Point, Revesby, Padstow and Panania.

Describing these markets as “competitive,” Mr Hourani noted that desire for real estate in his locale was only expected to grow with a population influx projected for the years ahead.

“With 200,000 new residents expected to converge on Canterbury Bankstown in the coming years, there is great opportunity for us to reap the rewards of the development required to meet its expanding population”.

Hockingstuart Group CEO Peter Hanscomb promised this office would be the first of many in the Sydney market.

“The growth corridor of Canterbury-Bankstown is a great fit for the Hockingstuart brand, and under the expert leadership of local expert George Hourani, we look forward to bringing our reputation for hard work, best-in-class customer service, and exceptional sales records to the area.

“We expect to open more offices in NSW in the near future, with a particular focus on Sydney’s south west to outer north-western corridor, including Penrith, Campbelltown, Leppington and Narellan,” Mr Hanscomb said.
