A professional with a personal touch

Neal has been an absolute pleasure to deal with. Very professional, but also very personable and has made the purchase process as stress free as a house purchase can be. We would recommend him highly to both sellers and purchasers.

Always Smiling!

Always Smiling!

Nicky from the get go was amazing at her communication. She was very empathetic towards the needs of our family by working around specific times and appointments to ensure she made use of every opportunity to market our home to prospective buyers. We were on the market a bit longer than expected, this was no fault of Nicky's instead she was always positive and always looking for the next opportunity to find that right buyer for our home. We got the desired outcome and couldnt be happier where we have landed. Very Professional Agent. Thanks Nicky and the Sotheby's Team! Regards Jake and Liss

We had a great experience with Phil. Straight to the point and was well informed regarding the property. Easy negotiations with nothing being a problem. Very professional. I would recommend Phil for sure.

Honest and Professional

Phil has shown professionalism and integrity. He was always honest with us and gently offered us great suggestions to sell our beloved family home. Phil worked hard to ensure we got the best possible price. He was in constant contact with us and was always ready to answer questions. He investigated anything he was unsure about to ensure we had all the facts.

Marlene is very professional and made the sales process seamless.

Marlene is very professional and made the sales process seamless.

We sold a home 7 years after we had bought the same home from Marlene. She had kept in touch all through that period, without being pushy, which we really appreciated. She knows the market well and was very positive at all times. Our property sold in a ‘buyers market’ whilst others in our neighbourhood were still on the market. Well done Marlene!

Nick was fabulous to deal with as a buyer.

Nick was fabulous to deal with as a buyer.

We met Nick at a couple of properties during our search for our new home in Hawkes Bay. We have experienced the good and bad with real estate agents, both selling and buying, however our experience dealing with Nick is surely as good as it could get! We found Nick to be very open, friendly, professional and genuinely interested in our story and situation. He was also very helpful with finding out the answers to our questions and keeping in touch with us prior to the sale. We highly recommend Nick to sell your property.

Top professional

Phil displayed top rate professionalism and provided excellent communication throughout the sales process. His market knowledge was invaluable in working through a lengthy process in a difficult market. His commitment could not be faulted with about twenty open homes plus private viewings, finally achieving an acceptable outcome. Phil maintained a friendly, positive attitude in all our dealings.

Nick Fryer ‘The ultimate package’

Nick Fryer ‘The ultimate package’

Nick is the ultimate ‘real estate’ package. Always professional, highly driven, efficient and remarkably capable. Although we had high standards from the beginning of the campaign Nick has repeatedly impressed us and supported us through the sale, to ensure a smooth and happy outcome. Kindness and communication are his super-power’s! We look forward to using Nick on our future projects and have no hesitation in recommending him to others, including family and friends.

Nick Fryer is a SUPER STAR!!!

Nick Fryer is a SUPER STAR!!!

Nick is a professional and was absolutely patient with us. Although we were super keen from the start, there was a good deal of personal due diligence we undertook on the property. Nick was patient, informative, exceptional with communications and guided us so clearly through what could have been a complex process. But Nick made it seamless! This is our first home. To buy a home through Sotheby's as our first home is wooooow! We are still pinching ourselves because the caliber of Sotheby's is right up there! So, we are over the moon! Thank you so much Nick for everything!!!

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.
