Very friendly and helpful

As a new buyer in New Zealand I found Paula very friendly and helpful. She went out of her way in keeping the house open for the initial viewing and was available when I wanted to look through again. She answered my questions fully (at least those she was allowed to answer) and was friendly throughout.

Great team, with a quick sale result!

Cory and Jamie made a great team in selling our property. They communicated with us every step of the way and made sure we weren't just another listing. If you want a team that is honest, hardworking and gets results, Cory and Jamie are the ones to call.

Exceptional listing and sale experience.

Cory and Jamie both communicated very well and kept me up to date every step along the process. Cory explained the marketing options and his advice was invaluable and 'spot on'. They both went the extra mile in helping keep the property in excellent marketing condition as I don't live in Hamilton. AND obtained a sale price well above my expectations. Thank you both.

Amazing from start to finish!

We have had an awesome experience with Team Barakat and would absolutely recommend them to our friends and family! Cory helped us to search for a house for a good few months before we eventually found our place. He found listings, arranged viewings, shared knowledge and insight, and was there for us constantly - we were messaging almost daily at some points and he was always responsive and helpful. Honestly don't know if we would have found our place without his help as his insight into pricing, suburbs, building materials and the market was invaluable. On top of that he was friendly, professional and so easy to deal with throughout it all. When we eventually found the house we bought, Jamie was looped in. Both Cory and Jamie were incredibly responsive, helpful and knowledgeable and made us feel supported. The process involved price negotiation and they kept us updated throughout. We really couldn't have asked for better! The house is beautiful and was represented really well by the team. We couldn't be happier with our new slice of paradise. Thank you so much guys!

Quick and Classy

I had a great experience working with Jamie to sell my home. From the start, he gave clear, honest advice around how to position the property, set a strong but realistic price, and market it properly. One of the main reasons I chose Jamie was his online presence, and that absolutely paid off. He knows how to get a property seen. The exposure and advertising were spot on, and I had great feedback from buyers straight away. He also recommended some excellent people to help stage and photograph the house, which made a huge difference. I received so many compliments on how it presented. Selling within a week was honestly the dream result, and a big credit to the strategy and guidance he provided. I’d definitely use Jamie again and highly recommend him to anyone looking to sell.

Great communication

We went with Jamie because he has a great reputation and we had dealt with him before. We was unbelievably prompt at getting back to us when we reached out to him about selling our house. We were very impressed with how quickly he was able to create a document package for us with all the info about houses that had sold in the area. He was able to get photos taken of our house fast which was what we needed. He was also able to use his contacts within Lugtons to get us a very very quick sale. Our whole experience with Jamie was seamless. We really can't thank him enough for helping us sell our house.

Will give you an honest opinion

I had an excellent experience working with Paula and cannot recommend her highly enough. Paula is personable, professional, and provides sound advice while also giving you the space and time to carefully weigh your options. Early last year, when I was planning to sell my home, she was honest in explaining that the market was saturated and that the price might not meet our expectations. I truly appreciated her transparency and integrity. Later in the year, I reached out to her again, and this time she was confident, proactive, and encouraging about proceeding with the sale. She successfully sold my house this month, and the entire process was smooth, efficient, and remarkably stress-free. It required very little from us, which made a huge difference as we are based overseas.

Jamie Barakat was a pleasure to work with and would recommend him and his team without hesitation.

Jamie and his team were an absolute pleasure to work with. Fantastic communication from start to end, very knowledgeable and approachable for all of my questions, proactive and pragmatic when any issues or concerns came up and needed addressing. Was a tough selling market but Jamie kept pushing throughout the prolonged sale process without letting up once. Would absolutely work with Jamie again given the chance and would recommend him and his team to anyone who asked.
