Derek made the process of selling our house easy. We highly recommend him!

We found Derek to be very friendly, enthusiastic and knowledgeable. He gave us feedback regularly and kept us right up to date with how things were going. It made the process of selling our house much less stressful than it could have been and we felt that he was doing all he could to get the best result for us. He has a really relaxed, casual style a great sense of humour and we now consider him a friend too.

Professional introduction to a home that suits our requirements admirably

Professional introduction to a home that suits our requirements admirably

Even though Te was technically working for the Sellers, my wife Jeanette and I were treated as a friend by her, assisting us wherever possible in this matter, like a family member, and coming across knowledgeable, helpful and professionally. We have bought/sold about 9 homes in our 50-odd years of marriage, and this transaction I must rank as one of the smoothest and problem-free of all. Thank you, Te.

I approached Tracey for a market appraisal after a fabulous experience buying my house almost 3 years ago. Tracey has great knowledge of the local market. She is a great listener, provides solid advice and has a warm, friendly and no pressure approach. Tracey didn't disappoint in listing my house and achieving a sale at a price I was happy with in just over 4 weeks. Tracey is a great communicator and kept me well informed with updates on the Open Home activity and TradeMe stats. I highly recommend Tracey to future prospective vendors. Thankyou Tracey for your level of professionalism, efficiency and just being a fabulous person.

Maureen was very quick to get the sale promotion actioned, and she represented the property enthusiastically. We were impressed at how quickly she had an offer on the table. We were pleased with her communications. We had good advice on advertising and preparing the property for sale, and the team at Kelly and Co provided excellent support throughout.

Derek's communication skills and knowledge of the local real estate market are first class.

Derek's communication skills and knowledge of the local real estate market are first class.

Dereks knowledge of the ever-changing real estate market in Te Horo and Otaki gave us a great insight into the possible sale price for our home. He is a very good communicator and took time to listen to what we had to say. In addition we were very pleased with the regular updates he provided, especially following Open Homes. When he found potential buyers he was very professional in all his discussions, both with them and us, and helped us to reach decisions on offers that had been made. We would have no hesitation in recommending Derek to anyone who wishes to sell their home.

Our purchasing experience with Maureen was excellent. With excellent communication when required, and a more layer back (not pushy) sales style which we really appreciated. She prompty followed up with the vendor with any questions. Many thanks

Professional, personal team approach

I had total confidence in Derek and his team, that they would met expectations on sale of property. From the moment I approached Derek, he explained the process, options for type of sale, suggestions with presentation of property, staging of house, realistic expectations for best outcome. I took his advice and left the property in Derek and his teams professional hands. Amazing outcome for me and the new owners. I highly recommend Derek Real Estate to both sellers and purchasers.

This is the second property Maureen has sold for us in 3 years, she is very professional in her role, keeps you informed and has extensive up-to-date market knowledge. We appreciated Maureen’s forthright, direct and down to earth communication skills. She kept us informed and was always available to be contacted, or to discuss progress or any other concerns. Maureen gave us good information and options with her negotiation skills. Always tactful and diplomatic. We would highly recommend Maureen as your Real Estate Agent. Regards Deb and Barry

Derek is such a man of integrity - he faithfully persisted with our sake even when open home attendance was low. He is spot with his market value. Derek was transparent with the whole process, communicating throughout.
