Professional, proactive, and genuinely focused on getting the best result for you

Susan’s attention to detail and the level of personal attention Susan gave to our sale stood out to us from the beginning. She was always fully prepared, reliably early to meetings and open homes, proactive in keeping momentum in the campaign and consistently kept us informed throughout the campaign with clear communication and thoughtful reporting. We were also impressed by her marketing approach. She made excellent use of social media and digital marketing tools to broaden the reach of the property, and it was clear she understands how to present a home effectively in today’s market. At the same time, she didn’t just follow a standard formula —she clearly thought carefully about how and when to showcase the home to maximise buyer interest. For example, Susan scheduled open homes when the tide would best highlight the estuary views, which showed she was focused on presenting the home at its absolute best rather than simply fitting viewings into a convenient time slot. Another thing we appreciated was the network of contacts Susan was able to draw on. Whether it was gardening, photography, or advice around logistics and moving after the sale, Susan had trusted people she could recommend. That made a number of small but important tasks much easier for us. We also appreciated how open she was to our ideas throughout the campaign. For example, Susan took on our concerns about getting people to come down our driveway by getting signs made to inform buyers that there was plenty of parking, which encouraged people to drive in with confidence and view our home. When offers came in, Susan handled the negotiations calmly and strategically and helped us navigate the process with confidence while always keeping our best interests front of mind. We are so happy that we chose Susan to sell our home, and we strongly recommend Susan to anyone wanting an agent that truly works hard for them. Colin & Ann Leslie

Reliable, proactive and easy to deal with

We had a fantastic experience buying a property via Susan Northey from Tall Poppy. She was super professional from start to finish, always on to it, and consistently kept her promises. If she said she would follow something up, she did. No reminders needed. Communication was outstanding. It was never an issue to get hold of her, even during Christmas and New Year, which really showed her commitment. She also did a massive job chasing and following up with the vendors, as responses sometimes took a little time. Susan stayed on top of everything and kept the process moving.

Exceptional market knowledge, proactive communication, and a truly professional experience.

Beyond her expertise, Susan is genuinely wonderful to work with. She takes the time to listen, understands what matters, and offers thoughtful advice with real care. Her calm, reassuring manner and positive approach made the entire process feel manageable and well supported. We always felt valued, respected, and confident that she had our best interests at heart. Susan brings a rare combination of exceptional knowledge, integrity, and warmth, and we wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for an agent they can truly trust.

The best agent around

The best agent around

From our first meeting to our last Lisette guided us along the selling of our house process with understanding both of our needs and the market we were selling in. We were selling a tenanted rental property and she happily worked around that and was so considerate of the tenants. We were listened to every step of the way and never forced into anything. We trusted Lisette to have our best interests at heart. She was very responsive to emails and texts and always did what she said she would do. We will miss our catchups with Lisette, that’s how much we felt valued, respected and looked after by her. We would 100% recommend her and Tall Poppy to everyone.

Lisette was very professional, a great communicator and she kept us constantly informed.

Thank you to Lisette and Susan for their professionalism, consistency in communication, and diligence in open home viewings of our property. Lisette and Susan kept us constantly informed on the open home viewer feedback in addition to the potential buyer interest in our property. In what has been a challenging property market, Lisette and Susan stayed the course and presented a buyer offer that resulted in the sale of our home. If you are looking to list your home, we highly recommend that you get an honest, no nonsense appraisal from Lisette and Susan. Listing with Lisette and Susan will result in a sale. Thank you to you both. Warm Regards, Pete & Lisa Wales
