Love At First Sight @89

Been to the first open home at 89 Bay Road in May with my husband and when we have a look at the place we said this is it! The day we met Monica too and she was very nice and feel comfortable with her. Twice we said we are ready to make an offer but didn't happen for some reason but Monica was still very patient until the third open home "confirmed" we signed up on her. Our journey with her was superb! ..will always get in touch and help you out. Her dedication and good customer relation is one of a kind. Very professional,indeed! Thanks Monica

Made house buying stress free and exciting

Wow! Monica Cairns at Tall Poppy made buying a house such a breeze! We were new to home buying, and have heard horror stories from friends and family about terrible experiences. Monica was professional and personal! She never made us feel uncomfortable and helped us every step of the way! She was extremely helpful, open, transparent, and reliable through the whole process, she really cared about us, understood our needs, explained everything in a way that was easy to understand, was always available to answer our questions and went out of her way to work around our busy schedules (including meeting us at the office after hours) Monica even put us on to the right mortgage broker and the solicitor. I would HIGHLY recommend Monica for all your needs

Awesome experience

We sold our first home with Monica. It ended up being a quick and simple experience. Monica was friendly and easy to talk to, quick to reply to any calls or questions and made the experience generally pretty stress free. My partner and I were very happy with the job she did and will definitely be recommending her to others!!

It's been so easy and a pleasure working with Monica. We sold our home from another city and Monica took care of it all. She conducted a free appraisal with no expectation for further business. When we embarked on the journey; she ensured we knew the process from start to finish and continued to support us every step of the way. Monica is very personable, professional, knowledgeable and genuinely cares about your aspirations. She is fast, efficient and delivers the results! It's a shame real estate works within territories, as we would love to have her assistance with the next home!

Review - Monica

Monica was an absolute gem to deal with! She made us feel like we had known her for years, and I’m sure we will keep in touch! She’s chirpy but assertive, and knows the answers to all the questions you could possibly have. We highly recommend Monica, as she has been so incredibly helpful and really supported us in buying our first home. She’s awesome!!

Having looked at many property’s within the South Island over the past year I was wanting to purchase in Riverton and have missed 3 properties to date due to the hot market . Monica made clear communication about what was needed to secure this property and the rest was up to me , once I had a offer in mind she made the rest off the process so easy and open that t a deal was reached within hours off my offer, thanks to her my next part off my life now has direction and the stability I have been searching for over the last 12 months ,

Monica was fantastic to work with. She was with us every step of the way and I never had to chase her for progress . She was on top of every aspect of the buying process. Contact with her was constant and helpful. She made the difficult process of first home buying achievable and even enjoyable. 10/10, would recommend.

Where do we start? Monica is the epitome of excellence. This summarises every aspect that we were privileged to experience during the process of buying our house through her. While impressing by being the consummate professional, her demeanour was also friendly. She was flexible and accommodating. Her communications with us made every step of the process easier. On top of all of that, we have our perfectly imperfect forever home all thanks to her. We would like to highly recommend Monica as someone you must talk to above anyone else if you are considering buying a home.
