Top agent status fully deserved

Top agent status fully deserved

Professional, down-to-earth, with integrity and a sense of humour, Alison Carter is an agent I will look to transact with again. Her communication has been superb while going ‘above and beyond’ to source information and answer queries. It really has been a pleasure doing business.

Overall professional experience

Alison is professional and very accomodating to overseas sellers needs and requests. However Alison did set our seller price expectation too high resulting in some disappointment.

Joy's commendable advice and support made our sale successful and stress free. Thank you Joy.

We found that Joy's honesty, professionalism and cheerful disposition made the whole selling process to be well understood as she described each step along the way. Joys communication skills are excellent, as we were always kept up to date and fully informed, so we could make the right decisions. Her approach was always informative without us feeling over pressured. At all times Joy was welcoming, cheerful, and always made us feel special as if we were her only clients. Often Joy would go beyond what we expected as she worked very hard and long to make sure she got a great result for us. Thank you Joy. We so very much appreciated you making our house sale a pleasurable experience. We would recommend Joy to anyone wanting to buy or sell real estate in Canterbury.

Outstanding home buying experience

Outstanding home buying experience

I was incredibly vague about what area I wanted to be in and style of house I wanted, but Lynton went out of his way to show me various styles in different price ranges and locations. His knowledge of what was available and key information about the areas was second to none. And his uncanny ability to know what would suit my needs (when I wasn’t even sure what I wanted) meant our property search was quick, easy and a very pleasant experience. In the past I’ve run into agents who can be pushy, overly talkative and even a very rude one (who completely put me off buying the house I was viewing). Lynton is the absolute opposite: professional (arriving early, dressed fabulously), highly organised, an excellent listener, clear communicator and always polite (and funny). He’s able to see potential and offer great ideas. I am so happy with my home buying experience and would seek out Lynton again in the future (although hopefully I have a good number of years enjoying our new home)

Professional in all aspects from start to finish.

Lynton from the very beginning of our property sale displayed a great level of professionalism which continued throughout the entire process. He is very easy to get along with, provides punctual clear information and is happy to answer any of your questions. Our favourite part about our sale was that Lynton maintained regular contact and was very clear in his marketing strategy that provided a fantastic result. He didn’t promise anything in which he didn’t deliver. I wouldn’t at all hesitate to list with him again and will definitely be encouraging people to utilise his services in the future.

Although we didn't make the process easy for Alison, she was supportive, encouraging, and always available. We would still be living across two countries if it wasn't for Alison's tenacity.

Lovely to First Home Buyers

Joy was great at giving us all of the information required to purchase this home. She was so kind and patient with us as this was our first time buying a home. She is one of the only realestate agents on our journey that took us seriously as young buyers.

Highly recommend Joy. Excellent in all respects.

Highly recommend Joy. Excellent in all respects.

Joy rapidly demonstrated her expertise in arranging an auction sale from a suddenly available property not ready for sale. Her guidance in preparation was first class on all matters, she engaged all her colleagues to help sell the property, she communicated brilliantly with us as clients but also in arranging various tradesmen, recommending lawyers, etc. Very professional, personable, and efficient.
