Brian is an expert in his professional domain but also brings other experience that enables him to navigate through all potential issues and aspects of negotiation. He is quick to respond to messages, and is a good advocate for Tall Poppy’s thorough approach to doing business.

Brian and Andrea proved themselves to be highly professional agents. They had excellent knowledge of the market and kept us well informed at all times. They took the stress out of the selling process and achieved a great result. Having a set fee price was great as we could factor in all costs from start to finish. We feel the whole experience was very well managed. We highly recommend Brian and Andrea, their service was excellent.

Very communicative and informative with relevant details surrounding the house which was of interest to us. Very happy with the sale and Stacey's efficient manner regarding the house and specific details which were of concern were addressed admirably.

Following the sale of our treasured family home (of 39 years) I would like to congratulate you for the most professional manner in which you conducted the sale of our property. I was astounded at the time factor that it took to obtain an offer of purchase, which took a mere 11 days from the market date, to an unconditional cash offer. Also, the offer was at the high end of our expectations. The 2 weekend open homes during this time, and the use of a drone as opposed to newspaper advertising, obviously contributed to the final result. You also made the communication between ourselves very easy, considering the fact that we were based in mid-Canterbury, and you were in Upper Hutt. Your commitment and knowledge of the property market also made a significant contribution to the end result, and I would recommend you, without hesitation to both family, friends, and anyone in general. Kind regards Max Smith

Jim Taare

Jim was very professional the whole way through the selling process of our house. He talked us through the procedure he was going to use, was up front about the charges and how we needed to prepare our house for viewing; and he kept us updated either by phone or email. He advised us before he brought clients through our house, whether it was a private viewing or an Open Home; and advised us as to how the visit went afterwards and the client or clients’ response. We were very fortunate that our house sold in three weeks and we accredit this quick turn-around to Jim’s persistence in taking every opportunity to show our house to potential clients. We would highly recommend Jim Taare to any of our friends and acquaintances should they be looking to sell their house.

Jim Taare

Jim's communication with us was excellent. He promptly kept us updated with feedback after each open home. We were satisfied with the marketing. Jim had a very good knowledge of the property market. Jim has good negotiation skills. He did well in negotiating the final sale. We are happy to recommend Jim to our friends, family or associates.
