We were absentee vendors as had already relocated South. Michael did everything and some for us during the marketing and sale of our home. He arranged the staging, the cleaning, and kept an eye on the house in our absence. When the 2nd bout of Covid hit Auckland, he reached out to us straight away with new strategies. He has never disappointed us (2nd time he has sold a house for us). I would highly recommend him on so many levels. Michael is upfront, honest and does a brilliant job. His attention to detail is second to none. Selling a house with Michael as your agent, is stress free, and a real pleasure.

I asked for one thing beyond anything else when I approached Ilse about listing my Takapuna apartment - communication! She delivered perfectly. I was kept in the loop every step of the way. When she said she would arrange things - she did. But best of all she had the power of all the contacts of Harcourts behind her so that she had our house sold on the same day we had the photos taken. Can't ask for better than that. A textbook example of how to sell a house well. Thanks Ilse and her team.

Ilse professionalism and her local knowledge of the Hauraki area made her well-placed as the agent to market the property. Guiding us through the complicated process of listing on the market today and advising us to list as soon as possible after Covid-19 lockdown paid off. Pre-listing • Accurate and honest evaluation of the value of the property • Advice on what was required to prepare for effective marketing. Ilse worked very hard for us and kept us informed every step of the way. We greatly appreciated the effort she put in on our behalf, and obtaining a very good outcome. Also thanks to Andrew for his great performance on the day. We would not hesitate in recommending Ilse and Harcourts. Many thanks Dorothy and Harry Young June 2020

When we first met you at a neighbour’s open home we found you to be a warm, friendly and thoughtful real estate agent with excellent local knowledge. Knowing that we were going to put our Belmont property on the market in the coming months, we decided instantly that you were the agent for us. The video you came up with was innovative and your authentic approach came across throughout the campaign. You kept in touch with us and treated us valued customers throughout – you were sincere and not pushy or ‘salesy’ – you cared. You sold our property in what some are saying is a challenging market. You always said to trust in the process – you were right and we are so glad we did! To future customers on the North Shore of Auckland, speak to Michael Swarbrick first, he cares about you and your property, and he gets results! He really is your real estate partner day in, day out.
