After moving from Wellington to Christchurch we decided to put our Waikanae rental on the market. Although we never met in person, Steve and Luana took up the challenge of marketing an empty house with creative thinking and perseverance all in the toughest market seen for many years. We got there in the end and are very pleased with the result. They both came across as no BS people so we would recommend Steve and Luana to anyone wants to sell in the area.

Luana has your best interest at heart. She does an incredible amount of market research to make sure both vendor and buyer get the best value. She goes the extra mile to ensure disappointment is avoided. Luana is incredibly open, honest and professional, but a lovely breath of fresh air with a beautiful warm personality. You simply cannot go wrong trusting Luana with one of the biggest decisions in your life. Thank you for making a truly magical dream come true.

My wife and I purchased this property, which was completed on 29th September 2022. The Agent was Luana Laceanu-O'Connor of Harcourts Waikanae. My wife had recently been diagnosed with a serious illness, so it was a stressful time for us. We wanted to downsize from our large property in Wanganui, and to move closer to family living in and near Waikanae. Luana understood our situation immediately and responded with sincere compassion and the utmost professionalism. From the time she contacted her colleague in Wanganui, to initiate the sale of that property, we were impressed by the co-operation and speed of the whole process. We will always be grateful for her understanding and encouragement, and for such a positive result.

We had seen a couple of houses with Ray, and although they were not what we were looking for he listened to us and understood what we were looking for. He clearly understood the Waikanae housing market and seemed to have personal knowledge of a lot of the properties on the market. Then the phone call came, he said “I think I’ve got your next house” – and he was right. He was really helpful through the due diligence stage when the KCDC property files were incomplete, and managed to get all the missing files within 24 hours. During the negotiations between Buyer and Seller Ray was always available and professional in what he said – and what he didn’t say. He even helped us to complete the complex offer document. We have been very happy working with Ray to secure our next property.

Selling in a tough market was stressful, but one thing that stands out about Paul is that he works hard. He listened to us and made sure that the whole sale process was in line with our expectations. Nothing was ever an issue and Paul was always lovely to deal with. Most importantly he got us over the line.

We really enjoyed working with Paul. He was very knowledgeable about the property, was approachable, and answered all of our questions. We felt like we were buying our first home with confidence because Paul helped us out so much. We are really pleased Paul was the real estate agent who sold the house we ended up buying, and we really enjoyed working with him. His market knowledge, communication and professionalism were all great. Thoroughly recommend him!

Being the first time selling a house we were in the unknown, Sue made us feel no question was a silly question and happy to help in every way possible. She was honest with us and kept us up to date with everything that was going on. She was also great with our 2 boys and happy to work around any hour of the day to fit in with our busy schedule. Highly recommend Sue, she is not only a real estate agent but she becomes your friend. Thank you Sue for everything.
