AAA+ agent!

AAA+ agent!

From the moment I started working with Joe, I knew I’d struck gold. Real estate can be a rollercoaster — and Joe was the calm, confident conductor who made the whole ride smooth, stress-free, and surprisingly enjoyable. Joe blends sharp market savvy with a down-to-earth, no-nonsense approach that instantly puts you at ease. His advice was spot on, his communication crystal clear, and when it came time to negotiate — well, let’s just say I wouldn’t want to be up against him. The man knows how to close a deal. What really sets Joe apart is the way he genuinely cares about getting the vendor the best result. If you’re looking for an agent with brains and heart — Joe’s your guy. Five stars doesn’t quite cut it, but it’ll have to do.

Rod was very knowledgeable and professional

Sale was very stress free as Rod handled everything, even though our house is only a modest townhouse he achieved a great result in a time frame which is allowing us to move on as planned.

Rod was helpful and realistic. He was informative, always making arrangements in consultation with us and working with us and our busy lives. We noted his positive relationships with other agents and preparedness to work with them for the purpose of maximising the outcomes for us, which was refreshing in our experience.

We engaged Emma to sell our new build property in Bryndwr. We opted for an auction campaign and had good numbers through. The demographic ranged but was mostly downsizers. Although the property didn’t sell at auction Emma presented a multi offer within 48 hours. The figures of these were not at a level we were prepared to sell but she worked tirelessly to continue with open homes, gather feedback and we were kept well informed along the way. We have now sold at a level we were happy with and appreciated Emma’s caring and positive nature. She is an experienced agent and knows the market well. Thanks Emma for a job we felt was very well done 😊👏

Great experience

Rod made the process of selling my parents’ home very easy. He took care of everything as I live in another city and wasn’t able to be there for all the open homes. He answered the phone promptly every time. But best of all he sold the place for more than we expected.

Rod was very professional without being pushy or trying the hard sell. He handled proceedings with ease and was a pleasure to deal with.

Rosa went the extra mile.

Rosa went the extra mile.

We were the buyers for the property Rosa was marketing. As we are downsizing, Rosa was very obliging when we were working out how our furniture would fit, even moving furniture to show us options. When we put in our offer Rosa was very responsive to any questions we had. When we wanted to change the settlement date Rosa worked with us to find a date that worked for us and the vendor. Thanks Rosa, we are excited to be moving in very soon!

Rosa is 100% professional, supportive, accessible and a great communicator.

Rosa is 100% professional, supportive, accessible and a great communicator.

We initially had our house listed with another prominent agent but had no offers. After resting it over winter we started again with Rosa and her team at Sotheby's, hoping to tap into their international connections. Their suggestions on improving the marketing material were excellent and we felt we were in safe hands. While the auction campaign didn't yield any cash offers Rosa reassured us this was just the first step, and soon after found us a conditional buyer. While we waited (months) for them to sell their house (clearly not through Sotheby's), Rosa continued to work hard on our behalf showing our house to prospective buyers and got us another good offer. A nerve-wracking process for us, but Rosa was steady as a rock and 100% accurate in how she thought it would play out. We are thrilled with the result and cannot thank Rosa enough for her kind support and attention to every detail. We can highly recommend Rosa for her care, knowledge and professionalism.

Very professional and highly competent

Very professional and highly competent

We chose Joe as our real estate agent after he sold our daughter’s house and the process went very well. He was a very effective negotiator when selling on her behalf and as equally effective as buyer’s agent when she purchased her next house. She was very pleased with both deals. When it came to selling our house, Joe recommended a deadline sale. This proved to be very good advice as it resulted in a quick sale for a good price. Joe gave good advice on decluttering the rooms and preparing the property for sale. The photos that he organised looked really great. The open-home strategy was very effective. And the follow-up on people attending the open home was thorough. A neighbour told me that friends from out of town had come and had a look, and Joe had followed up with them and kept them up to date with the situation. Our priority was getting a quick clean sale, as we had signed up for another property. Joe delivered on that objective by getting four written offers within a week of going on the market. One of these led to an unconditional sale two weeks later. He also obtained a very pleasing price given the placid state of the housing market in Christchurch. Joe was always pleasant to deal with and kept us informed about what was planned and what was happening. The process worked as he said it would, but he also modified it successfully to reflect the high level of interest the property received. We highly recommend Joe to anyone planning to sell their home.
