A major life change facilitated with calm, compassion and experience.

I was making a significant move after 46 years in the same home to a new region. Kim helped me navigate areas I was less familiar with and gave me confidence to look at new areas. I really appreciated that Kim understood my needs and could help filter through potential properties so trips to Tauranga were positive and informative. I felt I learnt more after each visit and feel that with the help of Kim I was able to find my perfect home that meets every single one of my needs. Members of my family are also looking to make the move to the Bay of Plenty and I would not hesitate to recommend Kim as the agent to contact to help them with the move.

Excellent Guidance, Professional advice, keeping us informed all the way.

Kim knew the Market very well. Her understanding of the whole process, keeping us informed all the way was of an extremely high standard. Selling our home of 29 years was a very stressful time for us, but Kim listened to us, kept us Calm and delivered us a great result. Kim was easy to talk to, worked well with her buyers, understood our home and its value, and kept working hard to get a good result for us- even working on Boxing Day. Would highly recommend her to anyone wanting to Sell or Buy property.
