We had a really great experience working with Arianne as our buyer’s agent. She was incredibly responsive and always quick to get back to us, which made the whole process feel smooth and stress-free. She was consistently on time, well-organised, and very knowledgeable. What stood out the most was how she guided us through every step, right down to the smallest details, making sure we understood everything along the way. Arianne was also very easy to talk to and genuinely friendly, which made a big difference, especially during what can be a pretty overwhelming process. She helped us with open homes and regularly sent through recommendations of properties that matched what we were looking for, which saved us a lot of time. We always felt supported and well looked after. Would definitely recommend Arianne to anyone looking for a reliable and approachable buyer’s agent.

We recently had the pleasure of working with Rawdon Christie and Steve Hood, and we cannot recommend them highly enough as real estate agents. From the outset, they provided clear, practical, and expert advice on how best to prepare our home for sale. Their guidance on staging, presentation, and the small improvements that make a big difference helped us present our property at its absolute best. They also went above and beyond in connecting us with reliable tradespeople—something that saved us time, stress, and ensured every detail of the home was market‑ready. Rawdon and Steve delivered an honest, well‑considered appraisal of our home’s value, and then presented a sales and marketing campaign that proved both realistic and strategically sound. Their partnership with an outstanding photography and video team resulted in marketing materials that exceeded our expectations. Throughout the entire process, communication was one of their greatest strengths. They kept us fully informed at every stage—providing updates, feedback from viewings, and insight into buyer sentiment. Their openness and responsiveness made us feel supported as vendors. Our perception was their engagement with prospective buyers helped create a positive, transparent environment for everyone involved. Rawdon and Steve operate in a very personable way, with integrity and expertise. We have no hesitation in recommending them to anyone looking to sell their home.

Dermot and Sarah are a 5 star team. They are professional and experienced without being pushy. Their advice right throughout the selling was spot on and I just always felt I was in good hands. They both went above what was expected and delivered on all their promises. If they said I was going to get a report on a certain day I did. Also Dermot’s experience with aspects such as staging and contacts for gardening etc was invaluable. This was a deceased estate and both Dermot and Sarah were very respectful around this, and helped as much as they could to alleviate any stress. On auction day Dermot was so professional and we got our desired outcome in a tricky market. It was a pleasure working with Dermot and Sarah and I wouldn’t hesitate to engage their services again.

A clear understanding of the correct marketing plan to fit the brief. An understanding of exactly what made the property unique and who would best see the desirability and potential the property presented. Flexibility to pivot once development constraints were fully understood. A great result achieved

We’ve used Dermot and his team on several occasions now and keep returning due to the fantastic services provided. In the past we’ve attempted to not be loyal to one agent but when you get results like Dermot provides it makes it very difficult not to come back for more. Highly recommend and will be using their services again

At all times Kathy dealt promptly with all our worries or concerns which were considerable as we had never sold a house previously. We felt our best interests were being served when any difficult negotiations were ongoing and Kathy gave us all the time necessary to arrive at the right decisions, Kathy went beyond what we would have expected from an agent when presenting the Open Homes at our property. Kathy was a perfect fit for us at our advanced ages and her optimistic attitude and dedication made the whole process manageable

We have the pleasure of dealing with Kathy 7 years ago when we purchased a property in Remuera. As a result of this experience we decided to use Kathy for the sale of our property in Remuera. We were not disappointed, as the property has now been sold and settled. Kathy guided through the sales process, including reporting back after each open home, remaining optimistic, even when the news was not so good in a very tight market. The property went to auction and was passed in, while this was a disappointment Kathy remained highly optimistic and suggested we change our strategy and put a price on the property, this we did, as a result we had a great attendance at open homes. It was not long before Kathy had an offer for us, we believe Kathy's approach of understanding and gentle negotiation secured his agreement, she managed to strike a good relationship with the purchasers. The agreement was signed at 10 pm on a Sunday night, Kathy came across town to obtain our signatures, a long drive on a Sunday night and missing a dinner appointment was dedication in our opinion. During the sales process of our property, we have found Kathy to be highly professional, understanding to our needs and regularly and clearly communicating with us. She spoke our language. Her market knowledge is wide and up to date, particularly regarding properties in the eastern suburbs. We would have no hesitation in recommending Kathy to prospective vendors- she achieved a result "sold our property"
