We had an incredible experience selling out home with Martin, we wanted a stress free, professional and helpful process and thats what we got. Martin has incredible insight to market trends. Helpful in the selling process and what we needed to do to be selling ready. Would highly recommend Martin.

I found value in the other reviews here and could discern from patterns that Martin was going to be the agent I needed, including and especially in respect of all-important negotiation skills. In a final pressured run to the finish line, he was indeed the agent I needed, getting the job done when I was perilously close to losing the property I was under contract for - and getting across the line was, in the words of the agent for my next property "very very rare". I even appreciated his fair and realistic appraisal at the outset, preferring realism to being talked up and inevitably talked down as can happen (not that his appraisal under-pitched at all, just didn't blow smoke to get the contract). Nice chap too. Would deal again, but I'm out of his jurisdiction now (because I got the property!)

We worked with Holly as we decided on a plan to declutter, redecorate and stage an Estate sale property to appeal to the broadest market. We found Holly to be a great communicator who worked well with us, and delivered good footfall into the property, resulting in a primary, and backup offers. I had a strong steer towards using Holly from a professional in an adjacent profession to Real Estate, and I concur with their recommendation- Holly is extremely professional, and has a great rapport which works extremely well with Buyers to deliver the best outcomes for the vendor - especially in such a challenging and uncertain market.

Ainslie was able to communicate with the homeowner, the lawyer and interested parties. She rolled her sleeves up and worked hard for a good result. She was attentive and understood the need for communication, reporting and care.

Martin is highly experienced, he gave great advice and has several contacts to assist in positively presenting the property for sale. I found Martin to be professional, knowledgeable and happy to help me out, taking the stress and fuss out of selling our property - Thanks Martin!

We couldn’t have asked for a better real estate agent than Holly Williams. She was absolutely exceptional throughout the entire process of selling our home, consistently going above and beyond to ensure everything ran smoothly. From day one, Holly kept us fully informed and up to date, providing clear and timely communication at every stage. Her professionalism and attention to detail gave us complete confidence, and we always felt reassured knowing she had everything under control. What truly sets Holly apart is her warm and friendly nature. She made the whole experience feel easy and stress-free, and it was an absolute pleasure working with her. We are so grateful for her dedication and hard work, and we would highly recommend Holly to anyone looking for a reliable, knowledgeable, and genuinely caring real estate agent.

We were impressed at the outset by Ralph's knowledge of what was happening in our area, his understanding about our house being a little special and his integrity. He was detailed and helpful in his presentation, and readily available throughout the process, to listen and answer questions. Ralph's focused and friendly approach and his obvious expertise put us at ease with the process right from the start. Our house sold quite quickly and Ralph's planning and great communication skills meant we knew exactly what was going on all the time. When it came to negotiating over the sale price we felt we were in safe hands with his advice and guidance.

As a family we were reluctant vendors of the Waikanae property our mother had called home for more than 30 years. Ralph and the team at Bayleys showed sensitivity and respect for what we were going through, whilst ensuring we had all the information and advice we needed to make sound decisions. They took us through every step - from the initial picture of the market, with reliable data and relevant scenarios, to guidance and cooperation on presenting the property to potential buyers, to excellent engagement on the marketing plan and regular updates on Open Home numbers and feedback, and finally to the presentation of the offers. [I reckon we could've done with a drumroll when you opened the envelopes though… might have added to the suspense.] We were included at every step, informed but not overwhelmed. Ralph and the team made sure we actually enjoyed the sale process, with the right mix of professionalism and the odd bit of well-judged humour to keep us on track. We would not hesitate to recommend them to future vendors. Oh, and don’t miss the new series, “Kindling Your Keenness To Sell” landing on TVNZ+ in April 2026. It’s a Must See!
