She was lovely to talk to and guide me throughout all of this journey.

When I meet Marlene at an open home in Taradale I knew straight away. She was lovely to talk to and guide me throughout all of this journey. She took the stress away from me and made everything easier. Her experience with selling home stood out for me. Honest and very delightful person, she helped us find the perfect home and made this experience a very happy one. Marlene deserves more than 5 stars . Big thank you to her and your team.

An excellent professional, with me every step of the way.

I really appreciate the excellent service provided by Nicky from Sotheby's. Especially as this was my first purchase in New Zealand as someone from overseas. Always helpful and responsive, Nicky really did go tha extra mile to make the process as smooth as possible.

Exceptional agent!

This is the third property in a row that Nick has helped our family to buy/ sell. He is easy to work with, an excellent communicator and is helpful and knowledgeable about all things real estate! He worked well with other agents, and communicated with our family clearly, ensuring we knew what was happening at each stage of the process. We have enjoyed working with Nick, and wouldn't hesitate to recommend him to others, or work with him again in the future.

Vendor Review

Sold under the Hammer at Auction thanks to Marlene Nathan, of Sotheby's. She was very easy to talk to and very professional. I am grateful to her for how she handled everything and led me through the procedure of selling and ultimately the sale of my house. I received excellent communication throughout as she always kept me informed along the way. Thankyou Marlene Vendor Bev.

Amazing Agent

Neal did a great job for us and the new owners. He understood what we were looking for as a Vendor and what the Client was after as a purchaser. We were kept in the loop the whole way through the process. Trust was built very quickly and there was never any question about the job that he was doing. Neal was recommended to us by a friend and we are spreading the word to anyone that asks us about our experience.

Neal is passionate, knowledgeable and highly skilled. He builds positive relationships with vendors and buyers. Neal's appraisal was spot on and he kept us informed every step of the way. His communication was excellent and he always had time to answer any questions. At no point did we ever feel pressured by Neal. He gave great advice on how to present our house for maximum impact and on the marketing strategy that was best suited. We totally trust Neal and it's clear he has a great team working around him. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend him.

Phil was an extremely professional agent who was able to support us wonderfully throughout the process of selling our house. He listened to all our requests and he was able to provide all the information we needed in a clear, understandable way for us. Phil kept in contact with us regularly and gave us great feedback on everything. He also supported us in our hunt for a new home as we searched for the right place for us. He was friendly and comfortable to work beside. He was definitely committed to keeping us happy.

Energy, Communication and Result

Neal was an absolute star and we sold our house within a week of listing with Sotherby’s, so the results literally speak for themselves. Neal brings huge energy, market knowledge and exacting professionalism to his role, and we were nothing short of absolutely delighted vendors. Neal is an exceptional communicator on every level and that was something we especially appreciated. Neal understood our house and its likely target market, and this context enabled him to present our place with enthusiasm and confidence, which ultimately shines through in the fantastic outcome. We would highly recommend Neal to others and will definately use again if we ever have the opportunity.
