it is very limited about what agents could do in the trade. However, Alice was trying very hard to pass on all my requests to the vendor, and get things sorted while she is going through a very special moment of her life (carrying a baby in the belly). really appreciate for all her help, fast handling requests and communicate inbetween.

We really enjoyed our experience dealing with Sandy over the purchase of our son’s first house. Sandy was warm, extremely well informed about both the specific property, the location and the market generally. She treated us with honesty and integrity. We also admired the way she advocated for her vendors - fairly but persuasively. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Sandy and would certainly use her as our selling agent if we are ever in that position.

Sandy is very knowledgeable about the market and the various steps/requirements that come along with buying a house. She was helpful and provided some advice to us on how to do certain things. At the same time, pursuing her sellers’ interests, on occasion we felt slightly pressured, albeit always in a professional manner.

My brother passed away in tragic circumstances in the month of March 2024. A native of the UK, he had been resident in New Zealand for 10 years, obtaining his full citizenship and was a proud holder of a NZ Passport. His Mother and Siblings remaining behind, here in the U.K My brother had purchased his first property approximately one year before his death and had invested a lot of time, effort and expense into renovating the property. At the time of his death although great improvements had been made to the property, the works were incomplete. My brother died suddenly in a workplace accident leaving no will, resulting in a long protracted legal process for the beneficiaries of his estate to have to endure along side having to grieve his passing. This legal process resulted in a 7 month wait until the courts granted permission for the property to be sold. During this period the mortgage still had to be paid as well as various utilities and council charges. Upon grant of permission to sell the property, enter Mr Matt Gibson, Matt recommended that the property be sold by auction due to the incomplete nature of the renovation works. Organising the sale of the property within 2 months, full settlement within 3 months . Believe me when i say that he did move at a feverish pace to organise this sale, firstly by organising a gardener and jet washer to spruce up the exterior of the property, then organising photographers for marketing purposes. Then marketing the property on various websites to generate interest for the various open house events that he organised. At all times maintaining excellent communication with me on the other side of the world and with our solicitors in NZ I can admit that it was not all plain sailing, at times i was close to despair, however Matt would always be there for reassurance. At Auction day he managed to get the right people into the room and achieve the best possible price for the property. Thankyou Matt

I had appraisals from three local real estate agents. My choice of Deb Starr was largely on personality - she's a delightful, normal and relaxed Kiwi who understood exactly what my needs were - I was wanting to sell my home of 31 years prior to moving to a retirement village. Her knowledge of the local St Heliers market was also excellent - she works from Ray White's Remuera office but lives in St Heliers. Deb's advice on marketing was spot-on and resulted in lots of interest. She also advised me on presentation and brought around a few of her own draperies for the photo shoot. Deb held 10 open homes plus a number of private viewings, with assistance from her very pleasant husband, Trevor. In a depressed market, I wasn't confident of getting the price I needed. I had opted for auction but, 5 days prior to auction, Deb called with an attractive offer subject to taking the property off the market. I agreed to that, the deposit was received next day and papers signed the following day. The property was only on the market for 30 days. I received a price adequate for my retirement home purchase and ongoing needs and my home was sold to a delightful young couple who appear to value my home and garden as much as I did.

I'm thrilled to have worked with Deb to sell my house. Her professionalism, positivity, and exceptional communication skills truly impressed me. Despite the challenges throughout the process, Deb was always adaptable, listening closely and adjusting her approach to fit the circumstances. I'm a very happy customer and highly recommend her!

Frazer did a great job of selling our new home in Hobsonville bringing us an offer right before Christmas. He worked hard to bring the parties together for a win win outcome.

Harry worked hard on all aspects of the sales process and achieved a great result on a property that not a straight forward sell. When our initial strategy needed reviewing and refining Harry was very quick and responsive

Jennifer’s timely achievement of sale is testament to her understanding of the needs of both the seller and purchaser. We have never ever experienced such an amazing agent who achieved so much in such a short time. We are happy to recommend her to all our friends and family. Both her qualities and capacities mean, in our opinion that Jennifer is top class and pure gold. She is an excellent representative for the Ray White brand for professionalism and leadership achieving on mark results.
