Approachable, knowledgeable, and supportive—great referrals and clear guidance throughout.

Working with Tracy was an outstanding experience from start to finish. Her communication style was one of her biggest strengths—she was always approachable, easy to talk to, and made sure I felt comfortable asking any questions along the way. She explained everything clearly and kept me informed at every stage, which made the process far less stressful. Her market knowledge was evident throughout. She provided helpful insights, guided me through my options, and ensured I understood key details before making decisions. I always felt like I was in capable hands. When it came to negotiation, she was proactive and supportive, helping to navigate discussions smoothly and confidently. She worked collaboratively with all parties involved, including other professionals, to keep everything on track and resolve any issues quickly. Her professionalism really stood out. She went above and beyond by connecting me with trusted referrals—from building inspectors to builders—and was always willing to discuss details with them to make sure everything aligned. Overall, she made the entire experience seamless and reassuring. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a knowledgeable, well-connected, and genuinely supportive realtor.

Outstanding and next level in every way !

Over the years I have had many interactions with the people involved in the property market. Shane Burns would have to be the best ever! As the seller - with many questions and issues to ask of Shane , I always found him to be highly accessible , always prompt in replying to queries and sorting out any “ bumps in the road “ along the way. In addition he has an excellent knowledge of the market and he always demonstrated a willingness to go above and beyond for me. His kind and caring demeanour along with his honesty and professional attitude is next level! Thank you Shane.

Professional, responsive, and supportive throughout a complex but smooth transaction.

We had a very positive experience working with Huia throughout the purchase of 23a Old Onerahi Road. From the outset, Huia was professional, responsive, and always willing to assist with any queries we had along the way. The process had its complexities, but Huia handled everything with efficiency and clear communication, which made a significant difference. We always felt well-informed and supported, and nothing ever seemed like too much trouble. Her approachable manner and dedication to ensuring a smooth transaction really stood out. We would not hesitate to recommend Huia to anyone looking for a reliable and committed real estate professional. Thank you again for your assistance and support throughout the process.

Jennifer was very professional and a great asset to her company Harcourts

Jennifer was always true to her word and kept appointments and information for us up to date. First met her at an open home long before we were ready to buy and kept us in the know. We contacted her when we had our ducks in a row and bought the second house she introduced us to. Was a Quick no nonsense deal so would recommend her to any ready to buy or sell Real Estate Thanks Jennifer ( Our Harcourts Agent)

Amazing service

Amazing service

Carina and Craig were absolutely amazing to deal with. As first home buyers, the whole process felt really daunting—especially putting in our first offer without knowing what to expect. They guided us every step of the way, making everything clear and manageable, and thanks to their support, we were even successful with our offer. What really stood out was their ongoing support from start to finish. They were always available to answer questions, offer advice, and reassure us throughout the journey. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would highly recommend them to anyone looking to buy or sell a home.
