Professional, approachable and always kept us in the loop.

We were happy with our decision to work with Debi from Tall Poppy from our very first meeting. She was open, honest and easy to talk to, and we appreciated her positive but realistic approach. Debi took the time to understand what was important to us. Selling quickly wasn't our main priority. We wanted our home marketed with integrity and to find the right buyers. She respected that and worked with our priorities throughout the process. Our home is around 30 years old and had been well lived in. It has plenty of space with five bedrooms, three bathrooms, two living areas, a large garage and great indoor-outdoor flow. Debi recognised its strengths, was honest about the market, and marketed it in a way that reflected the home accurately rather than trying to oversell it. Communication was one of Debi's strengths. She was responsive, kept us informed, and gave practical, straightforward advice at every stage. Her market knowledge and experience were evident, and we always felt she wanted to achieve the best outcome for us. If you're looking for an agent who is knowledgeable, practical, communicates well and follows through on what they say, we'd be happy to recommend Debi.

Excellent communicator

Deb was fantastic to deal with. Her pricing suggestion was spot on and we had an offer the day after the first open home which we were really happy with. I highly recommend Deb from Tall Poppy if you’re looking for a real estate agent.

Honest Review!!

Honest Review!!

We bought our first home 2 months ago. We had excellent experience buying our home with Leana! She was super knowledgeable, easy to deal with and made the whole process feel really smooth and stress free. Most importantly she was very patient at every step. We as first home buyers were confused and reluctant at times, meaning decision making took a bit more time than expected but Leana was always patient and courteous towards us. She was always happy to answer all our questions and even at times guide us through some steps that were not even part of her job profile. Her communication was excellent and very professional. She was always quick to respond and happy to answer any questions we had at any time. She gave honest, helpful advice that made us feel confident every step of the way. I couldn’t recommend Leana more highly to anyone looking to buy or sell!

I highly recommend Leana. She was fantastic throughout the sale of my Christchurch property, managing all the details from arranging minor repairs and getting the house ready for market through to the final sale. Her communication was prompt, professional, and proactive, and she made the entire process easy and stress-free. I always felt she had everything under control and would happily work with her again.

Short, Sweet, Successful Sale

Debi was a great real estate agent and really efficient. The sale of my place was a surprisingly brief affair, with Debi able to present offers to me after only four days from listing. Her appraisal of my property was bang on, as was the recommended listing strategy. I appreciated that the appraisal pack she prepared for my property had just the right info and was very easy to read- it wasn't just 50 pages of marketing and up-selling like other agents I had approached. I also really appreciated that she was always on call to answer my silly questions and put me at ease. She is a very good communicator, knowledgeable and also practical in her advice. I would highly recommend Debi to anyone.

Debi made selling our flat fun & easy

I met Debi after she was recommended by our property manager. I could not be happier with the work Debi from Tall Poppy has done for us. I have not sold a lot of real estate and Debi made the entire process really easy and, dare I say, fun. Her enthusiasm and deep understanding of her client's (and the buyer's) needs really shows and makes her stand out. She was able to anticipate potential snags and head them off before there ever was a problem. I would strongly recommend Debi to anyone wishing to buy or sell real estate. Thank you Debi :)

Outstanding service, exceptional result!

Outstanding service, exceptional result!

I interviewed half a dozen agents to sell the family home I inherited from my late mother. It was "as is where is". She shone head and shoulders above the rest. I have AuDHD and finding people who communicate effectively with me is part of my selection process. Debi didn't have as strong as track record on paper as some of the other big firms in that area, but I listened carefully to her explanation of what she'd listed and sold in the local market. She nailed it. Plus I love the Tall Poppy model where it's a tiered fees structure rather than percentages. It made it easier for me to calculate what I'd accept for the home. I don't like auctions but that was the right approach for this property, as we had 10 parties pre register, mainly phone bidders. Debi pulled suitable people in from everywhere. The process was impeccable. She gave me clear and pertinent feedback throughout the campaign. I never felt manipulated or that she was trying to encourage me to expect a lowball offer. Nor did she tolerate overly optimistic dreams about what might happen. Happy to talk about Debi to anyone selecting an agent. I cannot speak highly enough of her. Debi is an absolute star.

Debi is a legend!!!

Debi is a legend!!!

We can’t speak highly enough of Debi. After previously being on the market with another agent and not getting the results we needed, switching to Debi was the best decision we made. From the moment she took over, everything changed. Debi was proactive, motivated, and completely committed to getting our home sold. Her communication was outstanding — we were kept updated after every open home and throughout the entire negotiation process. She was honest, reassuring, and always available to answer our questions, which gave us real confidence during what can be a very stressful time. Her marketing approach, energy, and negotiation skills truly made the difference. We felt like she genuinely cared about achieving the best possible outcome for us, and she absolutely delivered. If you’re thinking about selling, we would 100% recommend Debi. She was fantastic from start to finish. Thanks again, Jordan and Janice
