Luke is very professional , easy to talk to and a pleasure to deal with.

Luke and his team are very professional, knowledgeable and a pleasure to work with. Luke explains the process very clearly, in layman’s language. Always available to answer any questions when I had any. Never rushed me but gave me honest answers to my questions. I value that. Good sense of humour and I felt comfortable with him and his team when I first met them. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Luke and his team. Great job and thank you.

Clarity and Compassion

Selling a family home can be an emotional experience and this was amplified for us by a recent bereavement. Richard understood this and continued to communicate clearly and listen kindly throughout the process. At no point were we in the dark about what was to happen next or what outcomes we might expect. Richard also advised how we could approach the challenges the property presented and what a potential buyer might wish to see. When auction day came and through the subsequent negotiations, were always felt well-informed and well represented. Richard’s positive spirit, clarity of communication and warmth have left a lasting impression.

Excellent knowledge and experience making the sale process easy

Anna was absolutely incredible to work alongside, right from the start she showed her extensive knowledge with South Dunedin properties, which helped put my mind at ease. She was very thorough, and always put my best interest first. I’m absolutely stoked with the sale of my property and that is all thanks to Anna’s extremely hard work, determination and negotiation skills to get the best possible outcome. Highly recommend Anna to anyone who is looking for a property agent that is very professional and will help achieve your real estate goals.
