Made a potentially daunting task seem easy

Made a potentially daunting task seem easy

Nicolette was a true pleasure to work with. She was very professional and knowledgeable , creating a very relaxed setting for negotiations. Throughout the process, the communication was excellent and Nicolette was proactive while never making us feel under pressure as the buyers. Her efforts were very much appreciated and we would be more than happy to work with her again in the future if we have the opportunity to do so.

Best Decision

Best Decision

We are fortunate to have some really good Real Estate Agents to choose from on the Pōhutukawa Coast, so when we decided to sell our home we reached out to friends, neighbours and of course the local grapevine for their feedback and Special Agents 003 kept popping up. No surprise then, we made an excellent decision. They were on the ball from day one. Nicolette was quick to connect us with a buyer for our property and her knowledge and experience were reassuring throughout. I am sure I speak for the lovely couple who have bought our home that working with Nicolette has been a really positive experience. We could not be happier with the result and recommend Nicolette & Special Agents 003 to anyone looking for THE BEST real estate team on the Coast.

A fantastic agent who provided excellent advice and kept us well informed throughout the process

Mike’s knowledge of the area is excellent as is his understanding of the current market. He provided great advice from the start but allowed us space to make our own decisions. Mike communicated really well letting us know what viewers were saying about the home we were selling. And Mike engage potential buyers well, which resulted in us selling our property faster than we expected

I felt supported

It was very difficult and distressing to make the decision to leave the home that I loved. But by organising all the preparatory work and dealing with the whole process he made it a little more bearable.

Superstar Agents

This is the second time we’ve used Nicolette and the 003 team to sell our home, and once again, they were absolutely amazing throughout every aspect of the process. Their professionalism, dedication and commitment were outstanding. They consistently went above and beyond to work around us, keeping us informed and communicating regularly throughout the entire process. Being able to sell our property in just five weeks, especially in a challenging market, is a testament to how good this team is at what they do. Thank you so much, Nicolette and team, for helping make our rural dreams come true! We couldn’t recommend them highly enough to anyone looking to sell their property. They are fantastic to work with, genuinely care about their clients, and deliver exceptional results.

Matt Kath & Stu were simply the best, better than all the rest.

Matt Kath & Stu were simply the best, better than all the rest.

The experience of having Matthew Brown as our Primary Agent made the selling of our home of 31 years an easy journey even though there was a long process, over several months, to work through with our buyer. He and his team (Stuart & Kathryn) communicated well with every detail, had an excellent grasp of the market without being unrealistic and negotiated so well on our behalf. They listened carefully to every concern that was shared and advised us well on how to present our home for selling. We highly recommend using this team as your Agent - they are professional yet very human. We can't thank them enough for a successful sale.

Excellent team & 100% service

Always very positive, made time in their very busy timeframes to meet up & have chats in promoting our home. Very cheerful & full on, helped us when we felt despondent with the state of the market. Would highly recommend.

Worked hard!

Worked hard!

In a really unknown market, it felt like Nicolette worked really hard for both us (as buyers) and the sellers to meet a middle ground! We appreciate that she never made us feel unwelcome when we had to ask 100 questions. Secondly, once the price was sorted and documents signed, Nicolette was readily available for us to be able to complete due diligence. From memory we completed a building report 2 days post going unconditional. Finally, post sale ✔️ we’ve had another 50+ questions and Nicolette was STILL always available. Many thanks again Nicolette Katie and Clint

Approachable with clear & quick communication

Ian and his team were a breeze to deal with! This was our first home and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. We have a long settlement but Ian still continues to keep in touch with us. Ian is very personable and approachable with great experience and knowledge in the industry to help us feel confident in our purchase.
