Excellent communicator

As I was out of town for a large part of the sale process, I really appreciated Lorraine's efficient and effective communication. She is such a straight shooter which I value and with Tall Poppys set fee it was good. Lorraine ensured everything was right and she exceeded expectations to make the sale and my move went smoothly. An honest and reliable agent.

Very personable, gets stuff done

Lorraine has loads of experience and local knowledge, and I feel like she is quite honest and upfront as well. She worked hard to get the job done in a finicky market. She definitely earned her fee!

What an awesome agent and, more importantly, an outstanding person. Ben has journeyed with us every step of the process of selling. From the first meeting for the property appraisal to his guidance and support through the preparing of our home for viewing, then his commitment to keeping us updated on every viewing, and open home. We felt like he was taking care of us and our home. Ben has been able to instill confidence in us that "all was under control", this gave Dad in particular a sense of peace in what can be a stressful time. Ben understands his job, he is a true professional, and he clearly has a passion for real estate and the people he serves. Both of us would not hesitate to call on Ben's help again

Wonderful experience. Very caring person.

I could not have asked for a better agent. Lorraine is a star! Very professional and communication was excellent. I have only owned one house in 47 years and was unsure of the proceedings and Lorraine was so very helpful and worked through all aspects with myself and my daughter. Would highly recommend Lorraine and if I meet someone who is looking to sell or buy I would certainly give her name out. Thank you so much Lorraine.

I was fortunate enough to have found the right house and the right agent at the same time! No mucking around. I wanted it. Lorraine helped me get it. Fast. Lorraine is a breath of fresh air. Having sold up in Auckland to move down for family and lifestyle, I needed a house that ticked all the boxes. Lorraine's local knowledge of Blenheim and experience of the market made the process easy and stress-free. A highly professional operator. I will definitely stay in touch with her!

Very happy with our sale.

Very happy with our sale.

What I thought would be an easy sale took a bit longer than I thought but in reality, it was only 90 days. Lorraine was extremely knowledgeable with the market and property values and its quickly shifting patterns. Lorraine went above and beyond for us which we greatly appreciated. We got our sale and the price we were wanting. Thanks Lorraine you did a great job.

A stress free experience

I had 2 iunits in a block of 5 to sell, I received a detailed market appraisal of similar properties in the area. The property took a little while to reach the market due to a problem with LINZ, Lorraine worked around this was able to sell the property having the purchaser rent it from us until the LINZ problem was sorted. She highlighted the uniqueness of the property which gave us a favourable result. Her communocation was excellent and she had our upmost trust.

Having found myself in desperate need of a roof for myself and my Dog, I came across this property marketed by Lorraine. Lorraine quickly understood my situation and worked with both myself and the vendor to get the best result for both of us. Throughout the process, she kept me fully informed of the progress and followed up all my questions. I am very happy with the service she provided.
