Drue knew us from our purchase of the subject property, was open in discussing our expectations and his own views and responded well to our needs as we together closed the deal for sale. We understood the purchaser’s need for finalisation also. Professional man.

I honestly can’t thank Lucy enough for everything she did when selling my house just before Christmas 2025. As the vendor and being on my own, I was worried it might feel overwhelming, but she made the whole process so much easier. Lucy met with me regularly and was always available if I needed to talk things through. She was honest and trustworthy, answering all my questions openly and making sure I understood everything at each stage. I never felt rushed or pressured, and she kept me fully updated throughout. The whole process was very smooth, which I truly believe was down to her hard work and dedication. I’m so grateful for her support. If you’re thinking of selling, I would definitely recommend Lucy at Barfoot & Thompson. She genuinely cares about her clients. Thank you Lucy for the great experience!

Working with Nik Sams was a fantastic experience. I can say with certainty that this deal would have fallen through three or four times if it weren’t for Nik. There were several moments where both parties were ready to walk away, but Nik’s excellent negotiating skills always found a middle ground that worked for everyone. His communication is second to none, he is ultra-responsive, never misses a call, and always follows through. If you want an agent who is proactive and can handle a complex deal, Nik is your guy.

Nik was great with the sale of our Gulf Harbour home. He was very supportive through multiple unexpected hiccups and achieved a good result at the end. I would highly recommend Nik to anyone who wants an inclusive and supportive sale.

As first home buyers, Nik was super communicative and helpful, assisting in the process and explaining detailed steps of the requirements. Also Nik was just generally really helpful with all aspects of home buying and moving in, whether you need attorneys, builders, painters.. he has a great network and friendly supportive service. Highly reccomend.

Nik sold our lifestyle section via negotiation and was excellent to deal with. Communication was great throughout and he was easy to talk to. He was open, very proactive, and navigated some tricky negotiations smoothly. You get the sense Nik genuinely cares. Highly recommend.

Drue is the best agent we have ever had selling and marketing a house. Drue and his entire team were outstanding with communication from start to finish. We were kept updated when an agent was going thru the house and always given the feedback after. We loved that Drue was upfront and not a greasy over the top agent. We loved his casual but very professional manner. We took all his advise and got the best price ever for our house. We would recommend Drue and his lovely team without a doubt. Thanks team Drue, you guys deserve a medal for the outstanding professional service you provided.

Living in Madrid while selling a property in Auckland meant I needed a real estate agent I could completely trust — and Nik Sams from Barfoot & Thompson Whangaparāoa delivered on every expectation. From the very beginning, Nik provided clear, thoughtful advice and a well-structured strategy that guided me through every stage of the process: pre-renovation planning, renovation, auction, and final sale. His market knowledge was invaluable — he didn’t just suggest improvements, he explained what would genuinely add value and what wouldn’t, ensuring every decision was focused on achieving the best possible result. Nik also introduced me to his professional network of renovation service vendors to manage the full renovation, and that turned out to be a game-changer. Coordinating everything from overseas could have been stressful, but thanks to Nik’s network, experience, and hands-on involvement, the entire process felt smooth and under control. Communication was another standout. Nik was always easy to reach, followed through exactly when he said he would, and kept me informed at every step — which made a huge difference given the distance and time zones. He also did a fantastic job leveraging my existing relationship with the agency that had been renting the property, ensuring a seamless transition from rental to sale. Most importantly, I felt completely confident in Nik’s hands. His professionalism, reliability, and genuine commitment to getting the best outcome gave me peace of mind — and the final result proved that my trust was well placed. If you’re looking for an experienced, proactive, and trustworthy agent — I can’t recommend Nik Sams at Barfoot & Thompson Whangaparāoa highly enough.
