I couldn’t have asked for a better experience buying my first home. Micaela was amazing from start to finish - professional, supportive, and always quick to respond to any questions I had. As a first-home buyers the process can feel overwhelming, but she made everything clear and stress-free. I'm incredibly grateful for her help and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell.
Celia and Micaela were both excellent communicators who kept in touch with us right from the first day to the sale day and beyond. Their market knowledge of the area was fantastic and we had great faith in their advice. They visited the property on many occasions whilst we were preparing it for sale. They offered help and advice right through this process, which was a great help for us as we prepared a deceased estate for sale.. They are an excellent mother and daughter team who impressed us with their commitment and understanding of the issues we had in preparing the house for sale. We highly recommend them both.
The team was prompt and professional with their communication. Their expertise was vital in a successful sale of our property in a challenging market.
As first-time buyers, we couldn’t have asked for a better experience than the one we had with Celia. We first met her at an open home that (unknown to us) had its time changed, and she went out of her way to drive over and let us through on our own. That gesture alone spoke volumes. From the moment we met her, Celia was warm, knowledgeable, and easy to talk to. She knew the property and the area extremely well, and we immediately felt comfortable and supported. Later, she guided us through a multibid situation with professionalism and clarity. Even though she was working for the vendor, we genuinely felt she was looking out for us too. Thanks to Celia, what could have been a stressful process felt smooth and well-supported. We’re very grateful for her help and would happily recommend her to anyone buying or selling.
Celia Challis (Celia & Micaela Challis) and Team Challis worked hard behind the scenes and were able to bring us the best offer on our property, even when it seemed that we would not be able to sell for our desired price. Celia and Michaela also assisted during complex negotiation with the purchaser until the offer went unconditional. We recommend the Celia Challis and the Challis Team as agents for whoever wishes to sell their home. They have the knowledge and work hard to achieve the desired outcome in a tough market
Celia is the most experienced, HONEST and sensible real estate agent I have ever dealt with. Strongly recommended!!!
Micaela & Celia are very professional, a great team for Harcourt's, They showed their professionalism in the house viewing, helped throughout the whole process from start to end with great communication, including unknowns, and getting an agreed price. We are very grateful for their efforts in getting our first home.
Celia and Micaela are both reliable, dependable and transparent with communication. These skills have helped to reduce my stress levels. And of course best of all - they got the job done.
We chose Celia and Micaela due to our first contact with them being extremely professional and this continued during the whole process of the sale.
Team Challis are two amazing wahine - Celia and Micaela, who are authentic, honest, reliable, professional, and genuinely warm hearted hard working professionals who did tireless mahi for us to achieve success in a super quick sale of our treasured multi generational whare. Their passion and commitment to support us, communicate regularly and guide us on this journey was beyond what we could have asked for and we are forever grateful. Celia and Micaela’s level of care and compassion through the emotional roller coaster times was considerate and thoughtful, and their creative input and ideas were spot on. Their attention to detail on all aspects of pre sale, planning, open homes, inspections and close of sale was impressive and helped us understand the intricacies of the entire house sale process. Team Challis are respectful and very experienced in their craft of the real estate industry, and we are fortunate to have had them leading us through. Thoroughly recommend Team Challis and won’t hesitate in calling on Celia and Micaela in the future. Thank you for your amazing mahi from our whānau.
Celia and Micaela have long term real estate knowledge, and long term experience of working together. This is the second property they have sold for me, with both sales having a degree of pressure for me completely separate to anything to do with them both. They also coped with this side of both sales incredibly well, so between their actual logistical etc ability, knowledge and empathy they are great agents. Also really fast to do their work when a change in advertising or whatever was required.
Celia and Micaela are communicative, professional and relentless. They didn't give up until we achieved a sale on favorable terms, in an incredibly difficult market.
