Stress free

Simon was a pleasure to deal with. His communication was great throughout, and he made the whole selling process stress-free. We really appreciated his relaxed, easy-going approach and how accommodating he was. Highly recommend

Regular updates, clear communisation and easy to work with.

From the first meeting at an open home through the whole process of negotiations, inspections, settlement and possession Ryan was easy to work with. He always gave us prompt answers to any questions and regular updates and we found his communication style to be excellent and professional while being honest and realistic at the same time. Ryan has a good overall knowledge of the local real estate market and also provided good local contact info for quotes etc when needed or requested.

Active listener, good communicator. Keeping us in the loop. Paula has a warm, friendly manner, at the same time her confidence was reassuring throughout the sales process in a competitive "house selling" market.

Helpful and a great communicator

Ryan was exceptionally helpful, professional, and patient throughout our home-buying journey. He communicated clearly and consistently, ensuring we were well informed at every stage of the process. His guidance and support made what can often be a stressful experience feel much more manageable. I would not hesitate to recommend Ryan to my family and friends. Anyone looking for a knowledgeable, reliable, and supportive real estate agent to assist with buying or selling a property would be in excellent hands.

Ryan was the best agent we have had the experience of working with to date.

Ryan was the best agent we have had the experience of working with to date.

Right from the outset Ryan understood us, our property and our needs. He did thorough research pertaining to the current market and presented us the information package which enabled us to have a realistic view of what price we could expect. At all times he was professional, his communication was consistent and reliable. He was always transparent, honest and has a big heart. We would definitly recommend Ryan to any future vendors or purchasers to stand alongside them on their real estate journey.

Clear, transparent communication. Knowledgeable and efficient.

Clear, transparent communication. Knowledgeable and efficient.

Set expectations clearly for us in terms of how best we can sell. Then he delivered on his market knowledge and execution of the sale. Trust is earned not given. The biggest attribute he has is humility, and can read the room when it comes to negotiations.

Professional, knowledgeable, very relatable and Simon's communication was second to none.

Professional, knowledgeable, very relatable and Simon's communication was second to none.

The process of purchasing a home can be stressful especially when new to the area however we felt safe with Simon. He quickly understood what we were looking for and the things that ticked the boxes for us, and although very professional in his field we really appreciated his down to earth, relatable manner. Simon was quick to return phone calls and emails and went to great lengths to find out the 'answer' to any queries we did have. We also loved the fact Simon is Kerikeri born and bred so lots of tips/knowledge for us newcomers in that regard. We would very happily work with Simon again whether buying or selling a home. Your a top bloke in our eyes - thank you Simon!

Communication is Key

Communication is Key

Simon was professional in his dealings with us and a great communicator right through the journey which we really appreciated. From our first meeting discussing the market and the process of selling, to sending us a photo of an item in the house which he was querying, prompt open home feedback to informing us about the timing of building inspections, we always knew what was happening. Simon was conscious of keeping any negotiations active and kept us in the loop with progress reports with the prospective buyers until contract stage. When it became unconditional it was celebration time! A great result in the current market. Thanks Simon.

Excellent service from beginning to end.

From the moment we contacted Simon we felt confident that the house sale would be handled properly. All the support and advice that was given was much apprechiated and our house sold within a fairly short time. All the details were handled well. We highly reccomend Simon Hart and Barfoot and Thompson.

Simon listened, cared and we felt heard

Simon recognized that selling our house was a huge decision for us., We had built the house and been in it for 21years. We were attached. :) However, due to illness we needed to downsize. Simon was realistic with hoe the current market was. He helped guide us with selling options. He continually kept us informed and, in the end, when the house did sell, we felt we received a very good outcome. (For both us and the purchases)

Professional approach

Professional approach

Excellent at communication and always punctual. Selling an odd quirky property was not going to be easy but she did it within my time framework. I did not achieve the price I was expecting but that was down to the property and not the agent.
