Great experience

VK made our experience buying a home very comfortable and stress free from the get go. VK showed great honesty and integrity throughout the whole sale process for both ourselves and when representing the vendor. VK always made sure to allow access quickly to ensure we could complete due diligence to our best degree. We would happily deal with VK again in future

Exceeded our expectations !

VK's expertise in the market was evident from our first meeting. He detailed the entire process, including market trends and understood our needs. Throughout the selling process, VK was incredibly communicative. He promptly answered calls, texts and emails, keeping us informed about every development even with us all being spread across the world. His support in getting our family home ready was much appreciated as felt like a daunting task. We are so very happy with the end result and would highly recommend VK to others too use in the future. Once again, thank you VK.

Our experience with VK Patel had both positive and negative aspects.

Our experience with VK Patel had both positive and negative aspects.

We worked with VK to sell our property. While we didn't achieve our desired sale price, we appreciate VK's consistent communication and responsiveness throughout the process. He were always prompt in returning calls and emails, and provided regular updates esp from open home in the weekends. The marketing materials were professionally done, and the open houses were well-organized. The marketing efforts were adequate, but we personal felt that the negotiation process could have been handled better. We received several offers below our asking price, and while we understand market fluctuations, we believe that more aggressive negotiation tactics could have been employed to achieve or get close to our asking price.

Comprehensive Property Experts with Personal Attention

Comprehensive Property Experts with Personal Attention

I currently reside in the UK, though I grew up in Highland Park, Auckland, where my elderly parents still live. As the family home became too much work for them, we decided it was time to downsize and make their lives easier. But where do you start? From the outset, Barfoot & Thompson's VK Patel and his expert, personable team Olga and Felix Bogdanovic assisted my family and me. Despite the 12/13-hour time difference, we collaborated seamlessly. Recent changes to property development in Auckland impacted the sellers' market, making it unpredictable and untried. Nonetheless, VK, Felix, and Olga put together a well-executed, timely, nationwide marketing strategy plan that absolutely hit the mark! The personal touch Olga and Felix provided to my elderly parents and sister during pre-sale and home viewing process went beyond mere human compassion treating them as thier own. It brought me back to my childhood, reminding me of what Auckland used to be like—slower and neighbourly. A heartfelt Herculean thanks to VK Patel his team Olga and Felix for making this end-to-end process a delight for my elderly parents and stress-free for myself, ex- Pakuranga College Samoan Kiwi living in the UK since 1996. I highly recommend their professional and personal services. I am currently in the next phase and receiving their assistance in purchasing a downsized property for my parents. Cheehoo!!!

"Smooth, Stress-Free Sale – Raj is the Best!"

Raj did an amazing job selling my apartment! From the start, he was professional, knowledgeable, and always available to answer my questions. He guided me through the entire process, gave great advice, and made everything smooth and stress-free. His marketing strategy brought in serious buyers quickly, and he negotiated a great deal for me. I really appreciate his honesty and dedication. If you’re looking for a real estate agent who gets results and truly cares, Raj is the one to go with. Highly recommended!

Great communcation and feedback

From start to finish I was kept informed and updated on buyer activity and feedback. I may not have liked some of the feedback but it was honest and enabled me to make a decsion to sell and not drag it out waiting for a price that was not realistic. I loved the idea of cresting a whatsapp group to keep me informed from the listing agents. So simple and yet so effective.

Honest and genuine

VK is one of the most honest agents I’ve met. I’ve dealt with a lot or other agents from other real estates and most of them lie straight through their teeth’s however VK was honest from the starting which made buying an investment with VK easy. Will definitely recommend
