Brian is an expert in his professional domain but also brings other experience that enables him to navigate through all potential issues and aspects of negotiation. He is quick to respond to messages, and is a good advocate for Tall Poppy’s thorough approach to doing business.

Brian and Andrea proved themselves to be highly professional agents. They had excellent knowledge of the market and kept us well informed at all times. They took the stress out of the selling process and achieved a great result. Having a set fee price was great as we could factor in all costs from start to finish. We feel the whole experience was very well managed. We highly recommend Brian and Andrea, their service was excellent.

Little did we realise what was going to unfold in the March of 2020. Our tenants had moved on and I took the 6 hr trip to Wgtn to do the post-rental clean and meet up with Paul to discuss options around the Sales Pitch. We found Paul very easy, approachable and he offered us some great advice as to the direction we were headed. We signed the contract and I left him to manage the dressing of the space, photos etc and start the roll out...then blam! Covid19 kicked in only 5 days after signing.... Like the rest of NZ..and the world - things stopped. Yet we are positive it enabled many people looking to purchase some time to really look at the available market. Once Aotearoa dropped to Level 3.... we had offers put forward within 4 days, and sold both properties within a couple of weeks. All the way through the process we were well informed of movements with sale offers and found Paul to be quietly confident. We would definately recommend Paul to help out with your next home sale...or purchase! Thank you Paul!

Very communicative and informative with relevant details surrounding the house which was of interest to us. Very happy with the sale and Stacey's efficient manner regarding the house and specific details which were of concern were addressed admirably.

Following the sale of our treasured family home (of 39 years) I would like to congratulate you for the most professional manner in which you conducted the sale of our property. I was astounded at the time factor that it took to obtain an offer of purchase, which took a mere 11 days from the market date, to an unconditional cash offer. Also, the offer was at the high end of our expectations. The 2 weekend open homes during this time, and the use of a drone as opposed to newspaper advertising, obviously contributed to the final result. You also made the communication between ourselves very easy, considering the fact that we were based in mid-Canterbury, and you were in Upper Hutt. Your commitment and knowledge of the property market also made a significant contribution to the end result, and I would recommend you, without hesitation to both family, friends, and anyone in general. Kind regards Max Smith
