Michelle has completed the sale of the 12th house in this development. Working expertly alongside the purchaser, she concluded the sale to after working through a tricky negotiation in a flat market to get a result both parties are happy with.

Michelle worked with the clients over a three month period while they sold their existing home and then sold them into our project. Not an easy thing to do in this current market where selling a new build off the plans is harder to do it seems.

Phil has a good reputation as an estate agent in Whitby. He is thorough and conscientious, and a stickler for detail. He has a quiet, respectful, and friendly manner with both sellers and purchasers.

When I first met Philip at the open house, he had a pleasant open demeanour that welcomed everybody. There were no judgement or preconceived prejudice on whether I could afford the house or not. He was open , transparent, very helpful as I was new to NZ and a first time buyer and he was patient to guide me on the process helping me along the way. He made very sound advice , referrals to other people that also helped me along the way of my first purchase. I would certainly trust him for future engagements whether is it to sell or rent as he does his job perfectly. Thank you Philip

At the moment, it's hard market. But Michelle shows a lot of being positive. Michelle worked very hard to make the process go alot easier. I would highly recommend Michelle.

Although it wasn't officially an 'open home' viewing, Michelle happened to be in the house I was interested in as I was passing by, and she invited me to look around. During this time she clearly explained the benefits of the house like its double glazing, how it meets Healthy Home standards, and relevant covenants, before allowing me time to look around. Michelle then invited me to look through another nearby house she had on the books, before asking if I'd like to look through the first house again, and then got papers with useful information for me to take away. It was almost 4.30 in the afternoon, and I appreciate the hassle it must be to unlock and then re-secure houses, but Michelle was happy to do this. The next day I went to the advertised open home and Michelle was very hospitable to the family I brought along, whose house had been built by Michelle's father years ago. Things moved very quickly after I first viewed the house, with other offers received. I particularly appreciated Michelle's willingness to go the extra mile - quite literally, driving to my current address to let me know urgent news about the purchase. That evening she waited until almost 7pm at the Harcourts office as I signed paperwork. Michelle kept in touch throughout the purchase process and as I worked to obtain finance. She also was able to name a few legal firms working in this area, which was helpful as I was a first home buyer unaware of the process. I appreciated how quickly she was able to get information, whether straightforward questions about where the Chorus fibre connection is located or more complex queries about the covenant, always clearly explaining the process. What I appreciate most about Michelle is that she isn’t 'pushy' but provides useful and timely information. Michelle has built a good rapport and said she will pop-in to say hello in the next few weeks when she's in the area. I'm looking forward to showing Michelle through the house this time round!

Through all of our dealings with Michelle re the purchase of our house, she has provided excellent communication, on every issue no matter how small. We were kept updated throughout the whole process (her knowledge & experience was evident), with swift responses to any questions. She was very helpful & informative and great to deal with. Couldn’t recommend her more highly.

Phil provided us with a level of care and expertise which our previous agent lacked. Through his efforts we were able to find a buyer for our Monolithic clad house.

Michelle was extremely professional and honest throughout the whole listing and sale process. She worked incredibly hard for us and it really was a dream outcome for us in what is typically a very stressful process to go through! We knew Michelle had our backs no matter how stressful things got and she certainly deliver on this.
