Excellent work and good knowledge

Joyce, having perfect timing management and good communication and quick response at all the time she did, based on marketing knowledge, she guided me to achieve my goal. I can see her way of communication through my process of buying my house.

Joyce Vette is such a bubbly and approachable REA whose charm instantly put us at ease as first home buyers. Her professionalism and warmth made the entire process smooth and stress-free. She was always available when we needed her, quick to respond, and explained everything clearly in a way we could understand. Joyce's genuine care, patience, and positivity made us feel fully supported every step of the way, she truly went above and beyond to make our first home-buying journey an enjoyable and memorable experience. Highly recommended✨

As Executor of the property I just wanted a no hassle end to the journey had been tasked with.

I had called Nathan early on after I was appointed Executor of the property and explained that we had a job in front of us to dispose of the contents including "THE GARAGE'! This took some months due to the remoteness of where we live in the Far North, balancing our own property needs with a pet - Hamilton won timewise in the finish. Task almost completed I called Nathan to discuss way forward. This was was short and concise with Auction being the only option for a quick result. Advice due to the run down state of the interior (exterior and internally sound) to not do any detailed tidy up as market would see that the interior was vey tired and in need of a total makeover. The Auction procedure was painless and proceeded exactly to plan. Weekly feed back on progress and viewing details were provided backed up with phone calls. Although I could not be present for the Auction as was in the South Island I was able to watch/listen to the Auction live in the comfort of a Bar! I set the Reserve at the Valuation figure I had been given independently and the reasonably lively Auction process determined the price just under that value which was acceptable to me. Overall a very professional experience by Lodge with Nathan as the driver. Over the years we have bought and sold on a number of occasions and this was the the most stress free of all. Thanks.

"An exceptional agent with a remarkable personality"

Joyce deserves more than 5 stars. She made the entire process more pleasant than we anticipated, from aiding us in finding the right mortgage broker to the right solicitor. Joyce was extremely attentive and patient, leading us through every step of the buying process. She went the extra mile to assist us in transporting our furniture by paying for the moving truck. I have faith in Joyce's ability to simplify things for all interested parties.

First Home Buyer.

Olivia was incredibly helpful. I did not have much knowledge about the process of buying a house and it got quite daunting at times, but Olivia explained everything in a clear and understanding way for me to understand. She also took the time to answer any questions I had and was always happy to call up and keep me up to date with everything. Very professional and knowledgeble. Highly recommend Olivia.

A Real Estate Partner for Life

We cannot recommend Joyce highly enough! When we were searching for our first home, we were feeling discouraged after two failed offers and countless private viewings. Joyce, however, never gave up on us. She stayed positive, patient, and invested so much time and effort to help us find the perfect place. Thanks to her dedication, we finally found our dream home. So, when the time came to purchase our first investment property, there was no question in our minds who we'd call. Working with Joyce again was a seamless and stress-free experience from start to finish. She took the time to understand our goals and her deep knowledge of the market was invaluable. Joyce's expert guidance and professionalism made the entire process feel effortless. Joyce isn't just an agent; she’s a trusted partner who genuinely cares about her clients' success. She has now helped us make two significant milestones a reality—our first home and our first investment property. We are incredibly grateful for her guidance and look forward to working with her for all our future real estate needs.

Amazing and a blessing

As first home buyers we were very nervous as we didn't know much about first home, however Joyce was such a blessing. She was very helpful and honest. She made it very simple and easy for us, being there every step and helping us with viewings. She was honest in helping us find the best home for our family which is something you don't find much with people. We are so blessed to have met Joyce. And I did say to her to expect my extended family as clients in the future. If I could rate more stars I would because 5 star is not enough to rate Joyce service. Thank you Joyce!

It's clear he works incredibly hard for his clients — nothing is ever too much trouble, and he genuinely has your best interests at heart. We have nothing but good things to say and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him to anyone looking to buy or sell. A top-tier real estate agent!

Brian's knowledge in the real estate industry was of great assistance in preparing the house for sale. He went above and beyond to present the property in tidy condition and this resulted in a great outcome at the auction.

Brian's extensive knowledge and contacts within the real estate industry was of great assistance in preparing the property for sale. I could not have managed this on my own and I really appreciated Brian's support and advice that resulted in a great outcome on the auction day.

Very Professional and efficient from start to finish.

From the first meeting with James Walsh to the sale of our house everything was extremely professional, efficient and friendly. James is very knowledgeable and conducted the open homes to the auction in a way that we did not have to worry about and of the details, he took care of everything, and more. We rate James work ethics very highly and fully recommend him to anyone wanting a stress free sale of their property.
