Gets The Job Done!

Carol and I have been friends for over twenty years and I am very familiar with the way she works so she was my obvious choice when choosing an agent to help with selling my property and re-purchasing. My property was is Gisborne so Carol recommended an agent there for me and assisted with all the paper-work which was a huge help to me as it’s certainly not something I do oen. I was hoping for somewhere in the $7s but ended up with a whopping $................Once we knew I had the money coming Carol and I sat down and chose a hit list of proper#es to viewwhile she eliminated a lot that I had considered by talking to other agents on my behalf.We viewed several proper#es and I fell in love with one. We decided to write up an o%er but found out there were two already being presented to the vendors that day. All of a sudden the pressure was on as I was now in a blind mul#-o%er situa#on. Under Carol’s guidance I was the lucky purchaser! I am absolutely thrilled with my home and even more thrilled I got it as the amount of proper#es available has decreased while the prices have gone up. I would de)nitely recommend Carol as hard-working and trust worthy. She listens to what you want, has great intuition and gets the job done.

She listened to what we wanted and followed through....

We chose Carol to be our listing agent after seeing her in action at an Open Home. She was friendly and informative about the house while still letting us absorb the atmosphere of the house itself. After the Open Home she kept in touch; periodically sending us listings in a personalised email and listening to our feedback about what we were looking for. She guided us through the listing process, meeting our need for the level of information that was appropriate for us. She listened to what we wanted and followed through. She gave us a price range that she thought our house would realistically sell within but recommended auction so that we could see what the market was achieving. This was good advice as we got a premium price on the day. The sales campaign was short but the house was viewed by a large number of people. Carol always rang first and verified a viewing time with us. She was flexible and always positive. From our experience with her I would recommend her to others who were thinking of selling.

A really great experience

We were so impressed by Carol’s enthusiasm and professional manner. She guided us thoroughly through the process of listing and selling our home. She worked really hard for us to get a great price for our home. She vetted perspective purchasers really well and followed them up in a timely manner. Overall a really great experience.

Fabulous experience

Easy, friendly & quick process! She narrowed down the houses we would like quickly & simply. She made house visits work for us & our child’s needs. Good communication & happy to see us get into our new family home which made it feel special.

Competent, diligent and knowledgeable...

Carol had sold a property of ours in 2018 so when we wanted recently to list our property on the market, Carol was the obvious choice for us. Carol has consistently shown competence, diligence, and knowledge of the market and has regularly kept in touch during the process which on all occasions provided excellent results for us. While they both were scheduled on three week campaigns to go to auction we were briefed on the process and walked through on the day. One sold after auction and the other resulted in a pre-auction offer that was handled professionally and discreetly resulting in a sale price we were happy with. Knowing that there was keen interest she held open homes both Saturday and Sunday resulting in a very high level of market exposure. Post auction follow through has been thorough also. Knowing we were also looking for a new property Carol helped us negotiate the purchase of an ideal property that met our brief, before the preferred property was exposed to the general market and this made for a smooth transition of our situation. Carol also sold our daughter a house after hunting for about 6 months, which has worked out extremely well regarding the strict criteria she was hoping for.

A very pro-active agent...

Grandma was now under pressure to secure a property to fit the new budget and the extended family of 3 adults and 8 children. This was no easy ask and there didn’t appear to be anything available. I sent an email out to my many fellow salespeople with an urgent need for help. The massive size of our team enables us to draw on huge resources. A Bayley’s PA saw my plea for help and suggested a potential property we had not yet considered. We quickly viewed the property and decided it was perfect and we then endeavoured to achieve finance to bring it all together. This was no easy task due to many circumstances. However, we managed to reach a successful conclusion and the family love their new home. Over this period at times I felt like the 12th member of this loving family.

Carol is an agent who listens, knows the market & always has your interests as her top priority.

From the initial appraisal, through to planning a marketing a campaign, staging the house and organising the photography and advertising, Carol worked tirelessly to ensure I could achieve the best result possible in the sale of my property. I was kept informed through every stage of the process, getting viewer feedback regularly. Carol was amazing with following up after open homes which ultimately meant the people most serious about purchasing were in the auction room on sales day. My house sold under the hammer, providing a great result well in excess of what I imagined my property to be worth, after just a three week marketing campaign. Carol was also instrumental in helping me find my next long-term home. She listened to my requirements regarding property location, size and price point and arranged viewings of properties that were yet to come to market. Within a week of selling my home, Carol had shown me through my ideal next property and guided me through an incredibly competitive bidding process, allowing me to secure a great home in my dream location. As both a seller, then being a buyer I could not have asked for more professional yet personalised service where Carol worked extremely hard to ensure great outcomes in both homes transactions. I highly recommend Carol Dovey as an agent who listens, knows the market and always has your interests as her top priority. Thanks Carol. Cheers.

The helping hand we needed to buy with confidence

With Carol's expertise guidance and her ability to efficiently arrange multiple viewings, we were able to find a house that fit our very particular needs within just a matter of days. We wouldn’t have been able to do it without her help as she gave us the confidence we needed to make the decision – thank you Carol for all of your help and your dedication to our search.

Carol as a proactive and trustworthy real estate agent.

We have had the privilege of having Carol Dovey as our real estate agent in the sale of our home and the purchase of a new home. Along with her professionalism we have been very grateful for her friendliness, and her care and empathy, throughout the process. We found ourselves in a very stressful situation over the sale of our property but Carol’s optimism, her perseverance, and her positive attitude helped immensely. Throughout the process her communication has been open, honest and informing, and Carol made herself available to answer any, and all, inquiries at any time. Carol has been generous with her time. In the process of purchasing a new property and preparing us for the auction process Carol has been first rate. We have been well-informed throughout, and this led us to a successful outcome. Carol is a part of a very effective real estate agency led by Gordon Stewart who was positively and empathetically involved. Carol’s bubbly personality and good humour have certainly been appreciated during this pretty stressful time. Her positive relationship building has been another aspect of Carol that has been substantially beneficial. We have no hesitation in recommending Carol as a proactive and trustworthy real estate agent.
