We were first time sellers and needed to know that we had someone we could trust 100%. We wanted an agent that would help us through the process, which I found overwhelming! Dee was amazing and was always there for us. She’s just a good honest, kind, genuine person that wants the best for everyone. Hand on heart - would never want use anyone else!

I met Mel as the owner of The House of Travel in 2016. Since then she and I have maintained a friendly connection and through this relationship, I met her lovely Mum - Annette. Both women present as natural, open, friendly, trustworthy "real" and very savvy businesswomen. When listing and VERY quickly selling our property recently, they went out of their way for us. Giving their time, guidance, well-honed skills, and professionalism. Our sale was a particularly sensitive one but they managed our requests and wishes with kindness and sensitivity. With Mel and Annette at the helm of our house sale, everything went smoothly and easily. Dealing with Mel and Annette made the whole sales experience feel like a breath of fresh air. It was definitely next level compared to other sales experiences we have had which always felt purely transactional. I cannot recommend them and Collab highly enough. Thank you to both of you for making our transition one of celebration and positivity. Mixed in with a healthy dose of fun & good humour for good measure.

Selling my house through Courtenay was a very positive experience. She was always available to support me through the whole experience, by answering questions and letting me know what was happening through the whole selling process. Additionally, she liaised with my tenant the property manager and other stakeholders in a timely professional manner that made life easy for me as the seller. I am very happy I chose Collab Realty and Courtenay Megson to sell my house.
Courtenay Megson
Paige and Dee, we’re helpful, personable and knowledgeable, from the start of our agreement to the swift closing of our property. We felt trust and comfortability with their extensive market knowledge, and felt they bought the vendors to our door. The marketing campaign was above and beyond what we expected and all of this combined made it a success for our family.

Courtenay was very helpful with my purchase and quick to respond to any queries or requests I had. I would highly recommend her professionalism.
Courtenay Megson
Courtenay ran a very impressive campaign with great communication about tactics, progress and general information. I liked how she was very open to minor changes, fitting my requirements and tailoring the campaign to what was happening in the market -place. The whole process was very smooth and easy for me. Wonderful photographs of the house and a great result at the end. Wouldn't use any other agent!
Courtenay Megson
Bryce and Errol formulated a beautiful marketing campaign to showcase our much loved holiday home. They guided us through the entire process with their extensive knowledge and worked tirelessly to achieve our desired outcome in what was a challenging market. Their honesty and sincerity is a breath of fresh air. We can not recommend this team enough!
Bryce Waldie
It was such a pleasure working with Bryce on the sale of our unit. He made what would have been a bit of a complicated and time consuming process a very smooth and easy one for me, which was a godsend as I was living in another city with two young kids! He went above and beyond to handle things that came up so I didn't have to, and just got stuff done - nothing was missed. Impeccable service and I felt I could really trust him. That means a lot. We got what I'd consider a good result in what is a very challenging market which isn't much fun for anyone! Highly recommend.

We would wholeheartedly recommend Mel Taylor and Annette Weir from Collab, who recently sold our rental property We were aware. being so close to Xmas, that it was not the best time to put our house on the market with most agents going on holiday and traditionally a slow period in the real estate market We partly chose these agents over others as they were prepared to work right through this time and they managed to secure the last photo opportunity of the year with the listing going online within a day. The ladies had a few viewings and ran open homes keeping us well informed along the way Within 2 weeks they presented us with two offers, one of which they negotiated to an acceptable price. We were amazed as hadn't expected any action so soon let alone a sale in this slow market. A shorter settlement date was also negotiated which meant the whole process took less than a month. When we heard of other properties languishing on the market then having to drop in price we were glad to accept their advice based on sound market knowledge At all times Mel and Annette acted very professionally but personably making the process really easy and the experience great for us as vendors Thanks Guys !
Mel Taylor
Mel was very helpful in guiding my wife and I with the purchase of our first home. Overall, we are very satisfied with the smooth process of the sale and purchase of the property. We highly recommend her services to others.

Dee worked with us to present and position our property in the most appropriate way for the market; was attentive to our situation and give candid advice on how to achieve the best outcome in a turbulent market. Great empathy and advice - all leading to a result that worked for us!

Collab was recommended to us after a 90 day listing didn’t result in a sale due to a slow market. From start to end both Paige and Courtenay were friendly helpful and professional. We were very impressed with the regular communications and explanations about marketing in the current economic climate. They worked tirelessly on our behalf with infectious positivity. The photography was great and viewings we’re done with consideration. The cash offer was very acceptable and brought to an end a great experience. Thanks Paige!
