Selecting an agent is never easy. Do you go by company or an individual agent? Or do you try and guess the market for your house and 'match' the agent to the likely buyer. Past transactions through Barfoot and Thompson in Auckland and their setting up in Tauranga made the first choice easy. Now which agent? Promise had really good client feedback, understood value of the media and obviously was an honest lady easy to communicate with. Thanks to her selling of our house has been far less stressful then it could have been in the current uncertain market. Leads the world on quick email & text responses and totally reliable in all respects. Thank you Promise. Our very best wishes to you and family

We couldn’t be happier with the exceptional service provided by Promise Royal in selling our home at auction. From start to finish, her warmth, professionalism, and outstanding communication made the entire process seamless and stress-free. She kept us informed every step of the way, always making sure we felt confident and supported. Her expertise and dedication truly set her apart, and we are beyond happy with the result she achieved.

Promise was extremely thorough and hardworking with a disciplined approach. Her communication was very good. Would I use her services again? The answer is an unequivocal Yes.

Our experience with Mark cannot simply be summed up in one paragraph. It has been the most stress free but yet exhilarating experience to sell our beloved 1st home through Barfoot and Thompson. From day one, Mark arrived prepared with all the documents and information about our property, the sales process and the benefits of selling through B&T (and we have not even signed with them yet). Throughout the process, he handled every question and query with professionalism and a human connection. His exceptional communication skills and over 20yr experience and knowledge in the industry answered every question in a way that we could understand. Mark has sold our home over the December festive season. Although this was during days that would have been very inconvenient for him, he never complained and remained extremely professional. We have no regrets in our choice of agents for the sale of our home. We highly recommend Mark Van Etten from Barfoot and Thompson.

Promise is an amazing real estate agent, friendly and knows her stuff. As an absentee landlord, after tenants left, Promise spent many hours arranging to get the unit ready for sale, including organizing painters, cleaners, gardeners and staging. Promise is exceptional in her enthusiasm and professionalism, it was an absolute pleasure working with her.

Leilani has been very helpful and keen to help whenever she can, enjoyed working with her and would use her again.
