Loved our Neighbours.

Loved our Neighbours.

Monica just made it easy. We had the perfect house in a perfect neighbourhood but the call to the sea was just to strong. She kept us up to date and was a shoulder to wail on when it seemed like a lost cause. Thanks again - Top notch.

Great service from day one. Courteous and professional, we have no hesitation recommending Monica to anyone considering selling, or buying a property. (Please note we were the purchaser in this case, not the seller)

Great experience.

Great experience.

Monica understood right from the start that this is very hard for me to leave my "forever" home and go so far away. She knew the need also for her to keep my daughter, who lives in Pine Beach, involved in every aspect of the sale. We are both really happy with the service Monica gave us. I would certainly recommend Monica too other people.

We got what we had been dreaming of!

We got what we had been dreaming of!

I knew I was in trouble the moment we parked outside the house - my wife had fallen instantly in love! In my mind I thought there was no way we would be able to secure the exact property we had both wanted when moving south - we had not even put our house on the market and here was a Deadline sale to end in 4 weeks! (I had broken the first rule of property - don't find what your heart wants if your wallet can't follow!} We reached out to Monica to see what was possible - I know it was her job but the speed of what happened next was impressive. Our offer was accepted but our house had to sell for it to work. Lights/Camera/Action True to her word within a day of hitting the market we had an offer that was above our expectation and soon after a backup offer. Unfortunately the other houses in the chain of sales took longer to sell and we fell into winters grip. Monica never gave up (even though we almost did) there were 5 separate families involved eventually, all with their own hopes and dreams which had to be aligned - to say it was complicated is an understatement. Thank you Monica - there will always be a seat for you with a Gin looking over our slice of paradise.

Great service from day one! Positive attitude and great feedback, especially when the council decided to dig up the street. Absolutely would recommend Monica to anyone considering selling, or buying a property (we bought our new home through her as well)

Couldn't have asked for better if I tried!

Monica and the team at Tall Poppy were absolutely seamless to deal with. Coming out of a sticky situation, Monica handled the process professionally and confidently, and made sure to keep me in the loop the whole way through, providing 110% support whenever it was needed. She would be an absolute asset if you are selling your home, I would recommend Monica and her team in a heartbeat.

Thanks Monica for all your efforts and assistance with both the buying of the property, along with the selling of ours. We found Monica to be cheerful and easy to deal with, only too happy to share her thoughts and ideas - along with her knowledge of the property market. Accordingly, we have no hesitation in recommending her services.

Monica is top-notch

We recently had the pleasure of working with Monica who helped us with the sale of our home, and we couldn't be happier with her experience. She was incredibly supportive and knowledgeable about the local market and provided us with valuable insights that helped us make informed decisions. Her professionalism, responsiveness, and dedication made the entire process seamless and stress-free. I highly recommend Monica to anyone looking for a top-notch real estate agent who truly cares about their clients' needs and goals.

Tawhiti was an amazing agent to buy my new home through! Communication was outstanding & always received a reply within a matter of minutes. He didn’t make it feel like he was out for just another sale but someone you’ve known for years having a genuine chat & making sure you receive the best experience possible. Making an offer was super simple & going back to the property owners I’m sure they felt the same way!
