trustworthy and honest service

Patrick was a great assistance when we were purchasing our rental property. He was very professional in all the dealings with regards to the purchase.He is professional yet takes your feelings and hesitatations to the experience. There wasn't a moment we felt we weren't his most important clients,and nothing was ever any trouble to him.We would highly recommend to anyone that wants trustworthy and honest service.Would definitely recommend.

Best Agent in Rotorua

Best Agent in Rotorua

Chrissy was very friendly put me at ease and was very trustworthy. Kept me up to date with all the viewings and interest in the property. Chrissy was very caring with our situation and she helped me a lot through the difficult time of finally selling my late mother’s home after 18 months of her passing away. I am recommending Chrissy as an agent to all my family friends and work colleagues in Rotorua.

A real gentleman in a pool of sharks!

A real gentleman in a pool of sharks!

I recently purchased a house through Patrick Gao of First National. I can't speak highly enough of him and his service. He was a real gentleman throughout the process, was honest and upfront and always managed to provide clear answers - either at the time or once he had found an answer from the Vendor. I would highly recommend Patrick to anyone wanting a straightforward Agent who listens and always acts with Integrity - hard to find in today's market.

Awesome experience

Awesome experience

Patrick was a great agent to work with. He is very professional and friendly, we felt comfortable with him right from our first visit. He took the time to listen to our needs and wants and gave us wise and invaluable advice. Patrick researched the market and provided us with detailed research to accurately market our home to the right audience. He supported us throughout the process and went above and beyond what was required to assist us with the sale of our home. What really appealed to us is Patrick’s calm demeanour. He speaks and acts thoughtfully and with genuine interest in his clients. At no time did we feel pressured to do anything we didn’t feel comfortable with, and he was always available and willing to give advice. If we were to sell again, we would seek out Patrick to market our property.

Purchasers perspective

Purchasers perspective

I see that Patrick's previous reviews are from a vendors perspective, here is one from a happy purchaser. My husband and I recently purchased one of Patrick's listings. I asked him to arrange a viewing for an investment group that we are part of, which he did. I don't think he realised how many were coming until a convoy of us turned up on the day! Lucky he's pretty chilled because he handled the multitude of questions fired at him really well. We put in an offer before we left. He was really helpful and answered any texts, emails or phone calls, didn't matter what time of day it was, but the thing I think we have enjoyed most is his sense of humour, he's a really funny guy. We know we will be doing business with him again soon :)

Excellent agent and very friendly

Chris was fantastic to work with for our house purchase. She was very friendly, efficient and professional. She was in regular contact with us every step of the way and when we went unconditional, she celebrated with us when we posted our sold sign. Plus a lovely bottle of bubbles and chocolates!Thank you for everything Chris!

Chris O’Donoghue is professional, honest and communicates on the highest level!

Chris exceeded all my expectations and much more from a real estate agent. She was open, honest, professional and made my experience of selling my home enjoyable, not stressful! Her communication and feedback to me throughout was excellent and always made me feel that I was in control. If I am in a position to sell a house again I will be calling Chris!!

Patrick was fantastic to deal with. He is kind and approachable. Very clear in his communication and kept us informed at every step of the process. He gave us great advice on preparing the property for market and we ended up in a multi-offer after the first open home and were very happy with the outcome. Truly Amazing!!! If your thinking of Selling your house, I would highly recommend Patrick Gao as an agent.
