Unbounded energy - Michael exceeded my high expectations

Unbounded energy - Michael exceeded my high expectations

I engaged Michael to sell my rental in Norway Street, Aro Valley. I was emotionally attached to it as it was my first home, and was aware that I could have unrealistic expectations around the process, and be a tricky customer. Michael not only had compassion and empathy for my situation, but to go along with his high EQ he demonstrated an extraordinary knowledge of both the industry and the present environment. His advice was sometimes challenging to my thinking but in every case it completely paid off and I am so pleased that I trusted him with the sale of my important asset. I loved that I always felt heard, and that we could discuss all aspects of the sale and strategy in an open way, with me being able to share everything that concerned me about the market in a safe, thoughtful and respected way. Michaels energy and passion was unbounded - his communication was excellent and he truly went above and beyond - Andrea sending me a photo of him waterblasting the steps of my property the day before we went live is one I'll treasure forever. As well as his knowledge, compassion and energy - Michael impressed me with his understanding that this was an important and stressful time for my whole family. When coming into my home, before dealing with any 'business', he would stop and talk to each one of my children, making them feel part of it all and making me always feel like I was bringing my 'whole self' to this important activity, and that he was personally completely engaged with the sale. The final result exceeded my expectations in every way. I have no hesitation in giving Michael my highest recommendation.

Micheal made the selling experience a breeze. I felt confident that the sale was in the best hands as he laid out the well-informed plan for the sales campaign. His approach was positive and enthusiastic as he steered the sale. He kept me in the loop at all stages, I never felt pressured, and when we found our buyer Michael stepped up to ensure success. I cannot recommend his services highly enough. It's been an absolute pleasure.

Fantastic, friendly, and very well connected!

Michael was able to hit the ground running and get a great deal over the line super quickly! I was really impressed with how well informed he kept me throughout the process and how fast he kept everything moving. Michael is very well connected and knows the Wellington property market inside out. Thank you Michael, you've helped me to move on to the next step in my property journey and I wouldn't hesitate to call you again as either a buyer or a seller!

Walked the talk

Walked the talk

Michael shared his knowledge and experience and provided clear upfront and frequent information throughout the listing period. Michael put the effort into selling the listing and was honest in his appraisals and progress updates (walking the talk and talking the walk) and was very positive throughout the selling process. It was a pleasure working with Michael.

My experience with Michael was exceptional right from arriving at the open home and through out the process of the sale. Micheal went above and beyond providing information where needed and going out of his way where he could. I would be more then happy to work with Michael again in the future.

Extremely helpful and considerate of both parties

Extremely helpful and considerate of both parties

I found Jules to be very polite, helpful and patient throughout the process and his knowledge of the property and the transaction process provided us with assurance that he was not only working in the best interest of the vendor, but also ours. Furthermore, his communication throughout the contract process was exceptional and I always knew where we were in terms of what was happening. Our family were experiencing a very stressful and serious situation of our own at the time and Jules was very respectful of that and made this process very stressfree, which is what we needed. Thanks Jules!

We recently had the pleasure of working with Michael to find our property, and we couldn't be happier with the experience. Michael’s warm personality and genuine enthusiasm for helping us made us feel like we were in good hands. What sets Michael apart is his exceptional level of service and commitment to his clients. Not only is he incredibly knowledgeable about the local market, but he is also very personable and engaging, making the entire process enjoyable and stress-free. He has always available to answer our questions, provide valuable insights, and offer expert advice every step of the way. We cannot recommend him highly enough to anyone in search of a knowledgeable, personable, and dedicated real estate agent. Thank you, Michael, for making our home buying journey such a wonderful experience!

A guardian angel in the real estate business

A guardian angel in the real estate business

From the first email contact with Michael, we knew we had found the most wonderful gentleman who we could trust and totally depend on to sell our most precious asset. Michael immediately reassured us , he could sell our house in the time line we wanted; he advised us immediately on everything from decluttering to storage, from finding the best lawyer for us and the best cleaner and a fabulous home staging company. Michael's personal support was invaluable as my husband's mother died in the process of selling our house; Michael swiftly stepped in so we had every support possible. Michael gave us unbelievable personal service and help when it came to the practicalities of preparing our house for sale. He came round to see us, at times to suit us, water blasted the paths and driveway, washed down the outside walls of our house and tidied up our gardens. You have to see Michael in action to witness his incredible work ethic; the results of his work were amazing and our house was show home ready, thanks to Michael's hard graft. Michael saw things to point out to a buyer that we had never thought of; he actually came and sat in our house for several hours to write up his detailed thoughts on the best way to sell our house. At times, Michael's attention and focus on selling our house was so great, it felt like we were his only clients; we had unbelievable support. The result of Michael's hard work was that our house sold after 1 open home and only several viewings. Michael liaised with our lawyers to ensure we had a settlement date , ideal for us, so we could get on our way to England. Having Michael sell our house saved us months of work and enabled us to reach our dream of an effortless sale; working with Michael has been one of the most rewarding and enjoyable processes we have ever been through. A thousand thanks Michael.
