Will Van Der Knaap did an outstanding, professional job handling our first home purchase

As first-time home buyers, working with Will Van Der Knaap was an absolute pleasure from start to finish. Navigating the property market for the first time felt overwhelming, but Will made the entire process remarkably smooth, transparent, and stress-free through his deep market expertise, excellent communication, and clear step-by-step guidance. He took the time to answer all of our questions, guided us through every step of the purchase, and ensured we felt completely confident in our decision. Will is an exceptionally professional, supportive, and dedicated agent, and we highly recommend him to anyone embarking on their home-buying journey!

Really listened to what I wanted

Great communication and really listened to me and what I was looking for, before providing possible homes. Really helped that Anthony was also flexible with a lot of my timing, and provided great advice regarding builds, what to look for and what to watch out for.

An excellent communicator, who shows genuine care to you her clients.

An excellent communicator, who shows genuine care to you her clients.

Lee has been exceptional to work with. She took the time to truly understand what was important to us in our buying decision and consistently kept us ahead of the market — often arranging viewings before homes were officially listed. Her communication was always clear, timely, and proactive, and her guidance helped us feel confident at every step. The transition from one city to another wasn’t simple, and Lee showed genuine care and a real interest in making that transition as easy as possible for us. She went above and beyond — helping us secure a rental property while we continued our search and then going as far as coordinating part‑time job opportunities for our daughter. Her support made a stressful period feel manageable. When we missed out on the first property we had fallen in love with, Lee gave us a piece of advice that stayed with us: “If it’s meant to be, it’s meant to be.” She was right. Although that loss felt tough at the time, something even more special was waiting around the corner — and that home really was meant to be. Throughout the negotiation stages, Lee was right there with us, providing expert guidance and clear direction. Her experience and calm confidence helped us navigate each step and make decisions we felt good about. As newcomers to Christchurch, Lee made us feel genuinely welcome. She suggested great dog‑friendly walks, shared local insights, and as a foodie herself, introduced us to some fantastic places to eat around the city. Her professionalism, warmth, and willingness to help in every way truly set her apart.

His knowledge and understanding of the real estate market was exceptional.

His knowledge and understanding of the real estate market was exceptional.

I relied heavily on Peter's knowledge and I really appreciated his patience and support, as my knowledge was minimal and needed to virtually be led by the hand. I built up trust very quickly with him, and he did not lead me astray.

A Great First Home-Buying Experience

A Great First Home-Buying Experience

I had a great experience working with Ravi throughout the process of purchasing my first home. From the very beginning, he was professional, approachable and always willing to help. He made the whole process feel straightforward and was always quick to respond whenever I had questions or needed clarification. As this was my first time buying a home and getting onto the property ladder, I really appreciated Ravi’s support and patience throughout the process. He made what could have been a stressful and unfamiliar experience feel much easier, and I always felt well looked after. I’m very grateful for Ravi’s help in getting me into my new home and would highly recommend him to anyone looking to get onto the property ladder, whether it’s their first home or they’re simply looking to buy. He genuinely cares about his clients and I couldn’t have asked for a better first experience.

Every attention to detail

Ash and his team guided us seamlessly through the entire process, from initial marketing strategy right through to auction day. Their professionalism, attention to detail and clear communication gave us confidence every step of the way. Ash is extremely well connected, and his knowledge of the local market was evident from the outset. He generated strong interest in our property and brought through a great number of prospective buyers through the well-planned open homes. The whole team was approachable, responsive and genuinely invested in achieving the best possible outcome for us.

Just as amazing the second time!

Just as amazing the second time!

Marie has now sold two houses for us and has achieved wonderful results both times. She listened to the market and advised us when needed to maximise our selling potential. Marie is extremely professional and thorough in her approach and we placed full trust in her, which clearly paid off. We couldn't have asked for a more dedicated, motivated and unflappable agent. Marie's communication skills are impeccable and she kept us in the loop throughout the campaign. Added to that was her friendly nature and approachability. We would not hesitate to recommend Marie to our family and friends.
