Above and beyond service from day one!

James MacDonald provided absolutely outstanding service selling our Waitakere Ranges property at 10 Tawari Road. Despite the challenging current market, his dedication and expertise delivered exactly what we hoped for - a quick sale at an excellent price with multiple interested buyers. James's communication was fantastic throughout the entire process. Even with our remote Henderson Valley location, he went above and beyond arranging private viewings at short notice and provided invaluable advice on how to best prepare our property for sale. His commitment to open homes and private showings was exceptional. What truly set James apart was his masterful negotiation skills during the auction process - it was clear we had an experienced professional working on our behalf who understood the Auckland property market inside and out. His dedication to achieving our goals of a fast sale and great price was unmatched. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend James to anyone selling in the Waitakere area or wider Auckland region. His combination of market knowledge, communication skills, and genuine commitment to his clients' success makes him stand out from the crowd. 10/10 - couldn't be happier with the result!

Carl impressed us from our first meeting with his honesty, his assessment of our property and the apartment market. His advice and expertise were proven absolutely accurate throughout the process and his data base invaluable in achieving an excellent sale. We highly recommend Carl particularly to anyone looking for a high quality apartment in Auckland

Outstanding Support from Start to Finish”

Gives 100%

Carl was 'onto it' from day 1 and didn't give up despite a lack of interest in the property for some time, continuing to do open homes when few people came, and looking for other options to market. Then when an offer was received, Carl again went the extra mile and secured a price higher than I expected, by recommending to me that I maintain the advertised price despite the offer being lower, and it worked. Carl is accessible and personable, will definately use him again next time.

Recent sale of our Townhouse in Kingsland.

We have worked with Carl on a few property purchases and sales over the years, especially in the area of Kingsland. He has a great knowledge of the area and the apartment/townhouse market especially. He conducted a seamless and extensive marketing campaign on a recent sale for us, closing the deal in a professional manner and within a reasonably short time considering this market. Thanks Carl.

Rick went above and beyond in the sale of our house.

We have recently had the pleasure of Rick selling our house in Point Chevalier. Rick has also sold properties for other family members in the past so he was the obvious choice when it came to selling our house. Rick went above a beyond in assisting us in preparing the house for sale, marketing the house and working through negotiations with the buyers. Rick maintained a friendly and professional manner throughout, gave us great advice and kept us informed at each stage of the sale process. We would have no hesitation in recommending Rick to anyone wanting to sell their house.

I would recommend Ashley to anyone wanting to market their property

Ashley was entrusted to market and sell our house in Herne Bay recently and immediately we felt at ease with his holistic approach to the whole procedure . These exercises are rare and complete faith in an agent is paramount and Ashley in hindsight was the man. His help in access to tradespeople pre open home for the best marketable product really was a standout. Ashley was always available, had an unwavering pleasant but professional manner and remained calm with every detail throughout the process. I would recommend Ashley to anyone wanting to market their property in this area.

I found Ashley Tait to be honest, friendly and approachable.

I found Ashley Tait to be honest, friendly and approachable. He was co-operative and easy to communicate with. Ashley went out of his way to accommodate me and my health restrictions by arranging meetings at my temporary address rather than me having to go to his office. Throughout the process Ashley listened, and supported my requirements and kept me informed of progress. Ashley endeavoured to make the process as stress free as possible and worked with everyone to secure the sale of my home.

We will definitely be using Ashley in any future property sales or purchases that we do in the area.

Ashley Tait has handled the sale of our property in St Mary's Bay in an extremely professional manner. He has an organised and pragmatic approach to the sales and marketing. He has access to various tradespeople to help present the property in the best way possible. Ashley is very helpful, open and easy to communicate with, he also over-delivers on his promises. He has an excellent work ethic and puts an exceptional amount of effort into the work he does. We will definitely be using Ashley in any future property sales or purchases that we do in the area. Both Steve and I would not hesitate to recommend him to either sell your home or find you a new home or investment."

He is reliable, communicative and always delivers on what he promises.

Ashley has now sold two houses for our family over the past five years and we can’t speak highly enough of him. He is reliable, communicative and always delivers on what he promises. We’ve always found him hardworking and has consistently got a good outcome for us in our property sales. We wouldn’t hesitate to use him again for any house sale or purchase in the future and would highly recommend him to anyone.
