Stephanie Lentini & Anthony Lapadula

Stephanie and Anthony’s decision to join Woodards Inner North was driven by a shared vision for exceptional real estate service and a commitment to client-focused results. With years of experience in Melbourne’s inner north, they saw Woodards as the perfect fit - an agency that aligns with their values of integrity, market expertise, and community connection.

The opportunity to lead and grow within a respected brand known for its innovative approach and strong local presence made the transition an exciting and natural next step.

To learn more about their journey, we sat down with Stephanie and Anthony to discuss their backgrounds, their approach to real estate, and what drew them to Woodards. Read our Q&A below.

  1. What inspired you to pursue a career in real estate?
    Stephanie: I’ve always had a passion for connecting with people and helping them through significant milestones in their lives. Real estate allows me to guide clients through one of their most important decisions—buying or selling a home—while forming long-lasting relationships.

    Anthony: For me, real estate is about community and connection. I was drawn to the opportunity to make a real difference in people’s lives, whether it’s helping a family find their dream home or assisting sellers in achieving the best possible result. Every transaction is personal, and that’s what keeps me motivated.

  2. What sets Woodards Inner North apart from other real estate agencies?

    Stephanie: Our deep-rooted knowledge of the inner north market and commitment to integrity and professionalism. We prioritize our clients’ needs and ensure a seamless, stress-free experience by offering tailored advice and support at every step.

    Anthony: We take a holistic approach to real estate. Beyond just transactions, we focus on building relationships, offering expert local insights, and providing a level of service that goes beyond expectations. Our team is highly skilled, and our results speak for themselves.

  3. What do you love most about working in the inner north?

    Stephanie: The vibrancy and diversity. Every suburb has its unique charm, from the heritage homes of Brunswick to the trendy pockets of Northcote. The community spirit is strong, and it’s rewarding to help people find a place they truly connect with.

    Anthony: The people. There’s a real sense of belonging in the inner north, and it’s incredible to be part of such a dynamic and evolving market. The mix of classic and contemporary properties makes every day interesting, and I love seeing how the area continues to grow.
  4. What advice do you have for buyers and sellers in today’s market?

    Stephanie: For buyers, do your research, understand your budget, and don’t be afraid to ask questions. For sellers, presentation and strategy are key—work with an agent who knows the market inside out and can position your property effectively.

    Anthony: Buyers should be prepared and act decisively when they find the right property. Sellers should ensure their home is well-presented and marketed effectively to attract the best buyers. The right agent makes all the difference.

  5. What’s your vision for the future of Woodards Inner North?

    Stephanie: To continue growing while maintaining our reputation for excellence. We want to remain a trusted name in the community, providing innovative solutions and exceptional service to our clients.
