Being located in the area they demonstrated a very strong knowledge of the local market and potential buyers. Communication and consultation were excellent, and great back up provided by the sales and administration teams.

Kylie handled both the sale of our home and the purchase of our new one, and she was outstanding at every step. Buying and selling at the same time is a lot to juggle, but she made it feel completely manageable — she was organised, on top of every detail, and always a step ahead of us. Her communication was excellent and we were always well informed of the next steps. Her knowledge of the local market was a huge advantage. Her advice on pricing and on what buyers in the area were looking for was spot on and it showed in the result we got. Above all, she took the stress out of the process. We're so grateful, and we'd recommend her to anyone buying or selling in the area without hesitation.

From the first moment that we stepped foot into the open home, Kylie came across with a warm presence yet strong knowledge which is what one would expect in this industry. Her communication was excellent from day 1 and answering all our queries where possible and if unable she endeavored to find the answer out for us and would reply promptly with the information requested. We have not had very good experiences in the past with agents which has left us reluctant to trust or reply on any future agents. Kylie has raised the bar for us and restored our faith that there are genuine agents still out there who really do care about their givers as well as their vendors. Would definitely recommend Kylie if you are looking to sell your property or wish to have guidance on buying your next home. We were successful in buying that property and the entire process has been made easy with her guidance. We’d also like to acknowledge the entire team at the Ray White Orewa Branch. They were all so friendly and genuinely happy for us!

My husband and I had been in talks with Zena for nearly a year regarding selling our home and when we were finally ready to put our first home on the market, Zena sold our home in just 6 days - before it even reached auction. Zena worked tirelessly to achieve an amazing result in what has been a tough housing market. Her work ethic is outstanding and she genuinely hustled every step of the way and always had our best interests at heart. Nothing was ever too much trouble even when we had a curly situation. She was always available to answer our questions and guide us through the process with professionalism and genuine care. Selling our first home was overwhelming but Zena made it super smooth sailing. We feel incredibly lucky to have had her in our corner and are so grateful for everything she did for us. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for an agent who is hardworking, knowledgeable, and truly invested in getting the best possible outcome for her clients. Thank you for everything Zena - you are incredible at what you do!

We couldn’t be happier with Zena and the way she handled the sale of our property. From start to finish, she kept us well informed and was always incredibly responsive, available to answer any questions we had and guide us through the process. Her communication made everything feel easy and stress free. Our house was on the market for just three weeks before selling, which we were incredibly happy with. Zena has excellent market knowledge and clearly knows how to position and market a property to achieve a great result. She was professional, approachable and genuinely lovely to deal with. Her friendly and warm personality made the whole experience even more enjoyable, and we really appreciated the care, enthusiasm and effort she put into selling our home. We are extremely grateful to Zena for all her hard work and would happily recommend her to anyone looking to sell their property.

Nicole was excellent to work with and communicated clearly and promptly at every step of the negotiation. Nicole is extremely knowledgeable, friendly, very professional and was able to arrange private viewings with short notice. We always felt we were kept well informed and would highly recommend Nicole for any real estate transaction.

Somewhere in the blur of unexpectedly landing a job in Australia and trying to work out whether to rent or sell our home, I apparently filled in a form online. I barely remember doing it. Then some bloke called Adam phoned asking about our house. My reaction was roughly, “Who is this guy, and what have I signed myself up for?” 😂 Adam came around to meet us, professionally dressed in cream pants. Unfortunately, nobody briefed our two dogs, who enthusiastically welcomed him and rapidly turned those cream pants a rather different colour. He took it remarkably well. In hindsight, probably our first sign we’d found the right guy. We weren’t even convinced we wanted to sell, but Adam never pushed us. He talked us through everything, explained the market, listened to what we needed and made an overwhelming situation feel manageable. Then I moved to Australia, leaving my wife in New Zealand juggling three kids, two dogs, the house and an international relocation. Through all of it, Adam simply made things easy. Selling a house in a tough market while one owner is overseas and the other is managing three kids and two dogs isn’t exactly a recipe for an easy property transaction. Somehow, Adam made it feel like one. So what started with a form I don’t remember filling in, a random phone call and a pair of cream pants that never stood a chance ended with our house sold and us genuinely delighted with the outcome. Adam, thank you. You’ve been an absolute pleasure to deal with, and we couldn’t have asked for a better person to guide us through it. Adam & Eve really did make it easy. Would we recommend them? Absolutely. Would we recommend Adam wear cream pants when meeting clients with two large dogs? Absolutely not. 😂

Adam & Eve, we couldn't be more grateful for the incredible support we received throughout both the sale of our home & the purchase of our new one. From the very beginning, you took the time to truly understand what was important to our family. As parents of 2 young children, finding the right home was not just about the house itself - it was about finding a place where a family could grow, feel safe & remain part of the wonderful Gulf Harbour community that we love. Your knowledge of local market, honest advice with realistic expectations, and genuine care made a stressful process feel smooth and manageable. You listened to our needs, kept us well informed & worked tirelessly to achieve a great result on the sale of our home & finding our perfect new home. Your commitment and focus on family needs is exceptional, helping us make the right decision for our future. We can highly recommend you to anyone looking for real estate professionals who are knowledgeable, trustworthy and approachable. Thank you both for helping our family begin this exciting new chapter. We could not have done this without you both!

I highly recommend selling with Sharon and the team. Exceptional care, service and attention. From start to finish the professionalism was excellent. Sharon always ensured updates and attention to detail throughout the process. After selling a number of homes elsewhere, I can see why she is a top-rated agent. A safe pair of hands to guide you through the process and a top negotiator. Thanks to Sharon and her team for a fantastic job well done.

Zena knows the area well and is knowledgeable and professional with what she does. She is quick to respond and is available when you need her. She goes over and beyond to ensure you are happy with your sale or purchase and takes time to explain and resolve any important concerns that arise. She is kind, bubbly, and fun but also compassionate with your own personal circumstances. She does not rush or pressure you to make decisions but gently guides toward the best end result.

We found him very helpful and obliging, showed us through the house and answered our questions. Nothing was to much trouble. We went back for private viewings and he was very helpful.
