Professional and personable

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.

Honest and knowledgeable

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.

Kilbirnie sale

Kilbirnie sale

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

Dream Team!

Dream Team!

We were initially referred to Sam by our neighbor, who had recently sold her home with him and spoke incredibly highly of her experience with Sam & Tommy’s Real Estate. We also bought our house through Tommy's 11 years ago. Shortly after, we met Ben, who works closely with Sam as a team, and from the very first meeting, we knew we were in the best hands with Sam & Ben. Their warmth, professionalism, and deep understanding of the local market immediately put us at ease. They guided us through every step of the process, offering honest and thoughtful advice on how to prepare our home for sale to ensure the best outcome. Thanks to their hard work and strategic approach, our house sold in just 10 days! Throughout the entire process, they kept us fully informed of every enquiry and potential buyer, and we always felt like a priority. No question was ever too small, and we never felt rushed or pressured, just genuinely supported. What truly stood out was how much they cared. When the sale went through, their happiness for us was completely genuine, and it really meant a lot. Even now, after the sale has settled, they have continued to check in and stay in touch, something we didn’t expect. That kind of ongoing care is rare. Selling a home is a major emotional and financial milestone, and we couldn’t have asked for a better team to guide us through it. We can’t recommend Sam & Ben highly enough. If you are looking for agents who are not only skilled and experienced but also kind, thoughtful, and truly invested in your house sale journey, these are the guys you want beside you. Thanks so much, Sam & Ben!! We couldn’t have done this without you!

Proactive and knowledgeable

Sam and Ben were very easy to work with, knowledgeable about the sector and the local area, and super quick to respond to my many first home seller questions. I worked most with Sam, and he was very friendly, communicative, and kept me up to date with developments. He worked very hard to promote the house & show people through - as did all the Tommy's staff - and I was pleased with the number of viewings. My house sold in just over a week with a few offers, which I was thrilled about. Would definitely work with Sam, Ben and Tommy's again.

Happy Seller

Sam was recommended to me by my neighbour, and I'm so pleased I took her recommendation. I was lucky that the process of selling went smoothly, but that was due in part to the meticulous organisation and excellent advice that I received from Sam and Alice. I felt that both Sam and Alice took away much of the stress that selling a property can induce. Thank you both.

Highly recommended across the board

In a very challenging market for sellers in Wellington, Sam and Alice definitely helped me hold my nerve and we got there! They are both great communicators, and throughout so confident and professional. My family and I have and will continue to gravitate towards Tommy's for both buying and selling in Wellington. Fabulous service - thanks!

Excellent experience

My experience as a buyer with mainly Sam Newbie at Tommys was excellent. He has an easy, friendly and professional manner, knows his market, was prompt with further information and communication updates, and went above and beyond throughout the process. Would not hesitate to recommend him.
