There are so many superlatives I could use to describe Carl's determination, energy and hard work, but they would simply detract from what Carl is all about....RESULTS. Carl has helped us buy and he has helped us sell. I could not recommend Carl highly enough to anyone who is looking for help buying or selling. Carl sold our house for $2.5m. This was considerably above our presale expectations and valuations. We had tenants in place for 18 more months which limited our market potential as most people buying a $2.5m house want to live in it immediately. Because of the tenants, we could not step foot on the property to prepare the home for market. We had some significant hurdles to overcome and quite honestly, this was not an easy undertaking for any agent to take on. Carl achieved the fantastic sale by overseeing and even participating in the preparation of our house for market. He worked tirelessly on the home in the days leading up to photos, and on every day subsequent to that. Carl focused on achieving the BEST result for US and we will always appreciate the integrity that Carl brought to the process. No other agent has ever worked as hard for us as Carl did on this sale. We are extremely grateful to Carl for the result he achieved and to his family for the time they allowed him to get us this incredible result. Thank you Carl and family. If anyone is thinking of buying or selling a home, there is no more hard working, results focused person you could ask to help you than Carl., Thank you again!

“Hi Sarah, all kudos to you, Annie and your team, on a very slick and professional campaign which resulted in a number which pleasantly surprised us all. My wife and I were particularly impressed with the constant and clear feedback, considerate viewing protocol and your relaxed, unpressured and friendly nature, making the whole process less stressful and refreshingly pleasant. We have no hesitation in recommending you to friends and family to handle their real estate needs ”

Gary was informative and prepared us in each step of the selling process. It was unfortunate that there were housing policy changes prior to the auction which impacted potential buyers. Gary continued to work through this process to support us in the sale of our property.

Carl was everything a buyer would want for a buyer. His knowledge of the whole process helped me greatly as I was a first time buyer and it felt rather daunting at times. He gave me excellent advice throughout and was always available to be contacted for information and help. I am very happy with the result of the whole deal which went absolutely smoothly. Highly recommended.

Gary has now sold 4 properties for me and I have also purchased through him as well ,he is honest and one of the better agents I have worked with ,he works for the vendor and achieves the best Result A SALE Marty

"They have fantastic coverage and a great model that collaborates with other salespeople rather than salesperson ownership. The diversity of the salespeople also increases exposure to buyers. Having bought from Barfoot & Thompson, I knew the buyer experience is better than some of the others. This, and the fact that my local salespeople were well known for their results, made it an easy choice."

Sarah Benbow
From the outset Gary explained the process of selling our house, including transparency around the Barfoot & Thompson legalities and systems. He continued to give sound information and advice as the process evolved. He was always available for consultation and advice and answering any questions we had. Gary has a professional work ethic and he communicates in an understanding, friendly, and relaxed manner. His organisation and attending to detail enhanced the success we had in selling our house.

"Sarah was very friendly, helpful and went the extra mile to help me in my sale of my property. It was very easy to communicate with Sarah and with me living out of the area, made it much easier for me to not have to travel back and forth to Auckland. If anything needed doing, Sarah was very obliging to do it for me and sort out any issues."

Sarah Benbow
"In all our interactions with Sarah and Annie they were professional, helpful and a delight to do business with. We can strongly recommend the services of Sarah Benbow and Annie Yong-Mewburn as they were professional and thorough in their handling of the sale of our house. They made valuable suggestions which assisted us especially as part of our sale was during COVID Lockdown but they were able to lower our stress levels enormously. Many thanks."
