We had an easy, comfortable and happy experience working along George to get our property over the line. He is a good listener, response directly, he keeps in touch and keeps you updated and take action. We had no concerns everything went smoothly. Many thanks, G man😊

I was checking out a house on Worcester st, Linwood, Thinking. "This just might be a go"? We hadn't even sold our own house. we were still hurting, as we had previously listed two utterly miserable-disastrous, "failed sale campaigns" with Raine and Horne of St Martins. Never-the-less, This was the first time I had meet James Ellis from Harcourts Holmwood. A quiet, thoughtful type Englishman, relatively new to Christchurch NZ, He knew the details of the house, There were others interested,so be quick. I arranged to show my partner Kate asap. I introduced Kate to James and that was it, Kate fall for James, She decided he would be the one to help us, sell our house. Forget Worcester st. she said, NO "I want James to sell ours". Next we were introduced to Michael Fisher, We both enjoyed meeting him, You could tell, he was perfect as wing-man for James.Wise, experienced, meticulous and considered. James and Michael explained how the Holmwood office worked "as a team" throughout the process, along with Chris Kilkelly office Manager the "voice of reason", they suggested we go to auction, we did, Auctioneer Dan Pengelly visited our home twice, chatted about what we loved about the house, what the sales strategy would be. He got the vibe, hes jolly good fun and obviously enjoys what he does, He also has beautiful eggs. De-clutter, clean, tidy, open Homes,trade caravans, photos, videos, Trade me listing, the works. We went to auction and nothing? Oh no, not again. Everyone was disappointed of course, Yet the Holmwood boys remained positive. WTF ? Deadlines next. , multi offer "Yippee" , well above Cv. GR8 job team. Thank you everyone @ Holmwood. It got a little tricky, but James seamlessly negotiated his way through the issues with the teams support. Well done We haven't found our replacement home yet, James has been working hard taking us to open homes and looking out for properties etc, Kate loves James., and so do our pets. Cheers Brian

From our very first meeting, Ash was exceptionally accommodating. Even though there were only five minutes left on the open home, he warmly encouraged our family to take our time and look around. That initial flexibility set the tone for the entire process, and we ultimately ended up buying the house. Because we live in another city and spent so little time at the property initially, we had numerous follow-up questions once we returned home. Ash was incredibly patient, helpful, and always willing to clarify details. His knowledge of the property itself was detailed and accurate, and his insights into recent sales in the surrounding market were invaluable. Communication and paperwork were handled seamlessly and on a remarkably timely basis. Furthermore, during the auction, Ash was a massive support to our daughter, who was there on our behalf. She felt completely reassured by his calm professionalism throughout a high-pressure moment. We are deeply grateful for his unwavering support throughout this journey. We would recommend Ash without hesitation to anyone looking for a dedicated, knowledgeable, and reliable agent.

Lucy was an absolute treasure. She was totally professional, but also helpful, kind and compassionate as she skilfully guided me through the process of marketing and selling the property.

During our first weekend of viewing homes, we visited seven or eight properties. Of all the listing agents we met, Allan was the only one who followed up to see how he could help us purchase a home. For eight weeks, we saw him every weekend at open homes and stayed in constant communication during the week. When auction day arrived, Allan was incredibly supportive and gave us all the information we needed. He was open, honest, and supportive throughout our entire journey. If you need help buying or selling a home, Allan ticks all the boxes. We couldn't recommend him highly enough!

Lee goes above and beyond and does everything possible to get you the very best possible result..she made the process very easy and we were more than happy with the result!!!!

Lee truly goes the extra mile. She was the agent selling the home I ultimately purchased, and throughout the entire process she was professional, genuine, and incredibly supportive. Had I not been successful at auction, I already knew I would have asked Lee to help me find another home. She took the time to understand my situation, reassured me when the process felt overwhelming, and checked in regularly without ever being pushy. The vendors were exceptionally lucky to have Lee representing them. Her warmth, honesty, and trustworthiness gave me real confidence, and she was a big part of why I took such a serious interest in the property. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell a home.
