Tracey and Te Ataahua were amazing to deal with! They are both absolutely lovely people, the kind you actually want to be friends with! Warm, honest, genuine, reliable and very different from most other agents who I've encountered (who often come across as fake or untrustworthy). But Tracey and Te Ataahua have a beautiful energy about them, and were able to achieve a sale for us in a difficult market. They were always friendly and prompt with their communication, and were happy to provide advice and suggestions throughout the process. I really appreciate the work they put in to get us this result, and would recommend them, without hesitation, to anyone looking to sell (or buy) in the area. As a side note, I love the "andCo" branding too. It looks so clean and professional, and all of the marketing materials were stunning. The photographer they used was also a really nice guy, and I loved that he was so open to hearing ideas, and that we were able to actually work together to create a beautiful video of the property and the beach! This even featured a cameo from my girls, which made it even cooler, and a very special memento of our time in the area. Thanks everyone! :)

Te Ataahua was exceptional with her friendly approach and attentiveness to our wants and needs as a whānau purchasing our first home. Being a local and invested community member of Ōtaki, Te Ataahua was able to offer us really good insights and knowledge about the right house for us. We would work again with Te Ataahua in a heart beat and we highly recommend her services to anyone looking to buy or sell.

We recently sold our residential property in Manakau, and we couldn't be more impressed with the service provided by Maureen Wallace from Kelly & Co Real-estate. From the very first meeting, Maureen was professional, knowledgeable, and genuinely invested in helping us achieve the best possible outcome. Their understanding of the local property market was spot-on, and they provided honest, data-driven advice about pricing and marketing strategies. The marketing campaign was handled exceptionally well — from high-quality photos and compelling listing descriptions to well-organized open homes that generated strong buyer interest. Communication throughout the entire process was excellent. We were kept informed every step of the way, and Maureen was always quick to respond to any questions or concerns. Thanks to Maureen's negotiation skills and experience, we ended up selling for a price exceeding expectations. They made what can often be a stressful process feel smooth and manageable. We would wholeheartedly recommend Maureen to anyone looking to sell their home in the region. Their professionalism, integrity, and results-driven approach truly sets them apart. Thank you, Maureen, for all your hard work!

Te Ataahua was very easy to communicate with and was always quick to reply to my seemingly endless requests for assistance during each stage of the sale process. While maintaining her professional approach she nevertheless was able to communicate her genuine desire to see our whānau get the home we were looking for.

We bought our home through Te Ataahua and sold our home through Te Ataahua. Te Ataahua is approachable, knowledgable and above all, loves her mahi and the community. We were so thankful for her communication and organisation and it was a seamless process selling. Absolutely rate her and appreciate her!

Placing a family home of 50 years on the market was challenging for our family. Te Ataahua provided clear communication and extensive knowledge of the market. She talked us through the process, expectations for the sale, and the issues relating to a lack of market history for the house, and current market environments. After setting realistic goals for the sale that met all parties needs, the advertising, marketing and communication was excellent, with the result being an offer (that ultimately became a sale) within 10 days of listing. Amazing outcome, thanks to Ta Ataahua!

We had the absolute pleasure of working with Derek to both purchase and later sell our beloved holiday home. When we first bought the property, Derek was there every step of the way—his enthusiasm was infectious, and he went above and beyond to help us secure our dream holiday getaway. He made us feel completely safe and supported throughout the process, and his genuine excitement for us made it clear we were in the very best hands. There was never any question we would call on him again when the time came to sell. Living out of the district, we were so grateful for Maureen’s exceptional support and communication. She was incredibly efficient in organizing and managing open homes and always kept us updated with thoughtful detail. Her attention to detail and dedication made the entire selling process so much smoother for us. Selling this home was a tough and emotional decision, but having Derek and Maureen by our side brought us real peace of mind. They truly did their utmost for us, and we are so thankful for the care, professionalism, and heart they brought to the experience. Thank you both, from Pete & Debbie Smith

When first meeting with Derek and Tracey I immediately felt at ease and was comfortable talking about my wishes for the sale process. They listened and guided me through what they thought was the best and most effective way of marketing my property. Also they eased my concerns about having open days. Their knowledge of the local market especially lifestyle blocks was a major factor in me selecting them. The fact that we received a firm offer within four days of the property being listed was totally amazing . They were very supportive throughout the whole process and particularly with discussions to meet the conditions of the offer. I would certainly have no hesitation in recommending Derek and Tracey to anyone looking to buy or sell a property in this area.
