Sam and Ben were a fantastic team to work with. Not only were they professional and fully engaged throughout the entire sales campaign, but they were also consistently helpful, accommodating and respectful from start to finish and even beyond settlement. We wouldn’t hesitate to work with them again in the future. Highly recommended.

We chose Sam as our agent because of the depth of his market knowledge, his enthusiasm and ultimately because he was friendly, down to earth and we felt we trusted him. We were right! Sam gave us good advice leading up to the house going on the market and even made himself available when we were unable to meet a tradesperson. He listened to our concerns, and gave us wise thoughts on marketing. Throughout the process Sam's communication with all of us was excellent - he gave us plenty of notice of viewings, and regular feedback on potential purchasers' responses as well as any issues. He followed through on everything he said he would, and we know he worked hard throughout the tender process. Sam has continued to help us with post-sale tasks including liasing between us and the seller. While we didn;t see much of Ben because Sam was so attentive, it was great that he had Ben as a back up - it made life easier when purchasers wanted building inspector/tradespeople to come to the house. We appreciated all the Tommy's agents who took people through the house and their support. Overall, Sam did an outstanding job, he was a good sounding-board and we would definitely use him again and recommend him to other vendors. Thanks Sam and Ben.

Sam and Ben are a fantastic team! They were very easy to work with, knowledgeable and highly professional. We dealt primarily with Sam for the sale of our home. What a great experience. He was passionate about our home and worked hard alongside us to ensure the best possible outcome. Sam was aways calm, gave sound advice, and remained positive in a tough market. The excellent communication throughout the process was supportive, honest and helpful and kept us at ease. We had observed Sams work within Hataitai for many years prior to making contact with him and we were not disappointed. We highly recommend Sam and Ben and would definitely use them again in the future.

I recently had the pleasure of working with Sam and Ben on the sale of my property. Throughout the process, Sam and Ben demonstrated exceptional professionalism and integrity. They were upfront about market conditions, realistic about pricing, and never pressured me into making decisions that weren’t right for me. They know the Hataitai area well, and were more than happy to anchor their advice in recent sales/listings in the area. Thanks to them, we achieved a great outcome in a very tricky market. I highly recommend Sam and Ben to anyone looking for genuine professionals who deliver great results.

We’ve worked with Sam Newble at Tommy’s several times now—both buying and selling—and every experience has reaffirmed why we keep going back. Sam is one of those rare agents who brings equal parts commitment, professionalism, and easygoing confidence to the process. Nothing ever feels pressured or transactional; he listens, gives clear advice, and keeps things moving with calm, grounded assurance. Sam also makes the whole experience enjoyable. He’s approachable, personable, and has a great sense of timing when it comes to balancing realism with optimism. You never feel like you’re being “sold to”—you feel like you’ve got someone in your corner who actually cares about your priorities. After multiple transactions with him, we trust his judgement completely. He knows the Wellington market inside out, he builds strong rapport with buyers, and he has a knack for simplifying what can easily become a stressful process. If you want an agent who’s committed, easy to work with, and consistently delivers, Sam is the person you call. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him and will continue working with him in the future.

Ben showed incredible integrity throughout the entire process, and I always felt I could depend on him. He made selling my house a positive and stress-free experience by keeping me regularly informed and truly understanding my situation. His professionalism and knowledge were evident in every step of the sales process. Even in a tough buyers’ market, when I wasn’t sure a sale would happen, Ben never wavered. He worked tirelessly and achieved the result we needed. His advice along the way was reliable, wise, and genuinely appreciated. He is approachable, handles challenges confidently, and guided the negotiations with skill and honesty. I highly recommend Ben. No challenging property is too much for him—he gets results and tells it like it is, so you always know where you stand. Thank you so much, Ben!

I mostly worked with Sam to sell my home. He and Ben were really organised, did what they said they would and gave us clear honest advice. I know Sam has been in real estate for some time and he has the knowledge and gut feel for it. Both Sam and Ben were respectful, polite and considerate. Just nice people to deal with!

Sam and Ben were a great team. We have previously bought and sold with Sam so felt we knew him well. We chose to work with him again because of his professional approach to selling as well as his personable comms and understanding of our perspective. It was lovely to meet and work with Ben through this process too - and in the end, the nitty gritty comms came down to Ben who did a great job! Thanks to you both and all the best.

Sam and Ben sold our property in one week for a price higher than what we were expecting. We mostly dealt with Sam and found him to be very knowledgeable and easy to work with. He was always honest and realistic with his advice. We would not hesitate in recommending this team.

Sam and Ben were hard working in a hard market. They never gave up though and got us result in the end. Great work.

I met Sam prior to the sale and from that day onwards our communications were virtual as absentee owners. Sam made it easy for us to do what was required with the sale documents. Great communications via email and phone. First open home generated the first offers. A buyer was signed within seven days thanks to Ben who stepped in during Sam’s absence. We are very happy to recommend these two gentlemen. You won’t be disappointed with there experience and professionalism that they bring to the whole experience of selling a property.

Sam has a genuine warmth and honesty that made my wariness drop instantly. His expert advice was spot on for the target market. Sam accepted my opinions and answered all my questions patiently, thoroughly and above all respectfully. Sam and Ben were both fantastic in communicating pre and post open home updates. I am very grateful for a painless and positive outcome. JM
