Team Mary and Sarah are highly recommended for their professional services for great results.

Team Mary and Sarah are highly recommended for their professional services for great results.

Team Mary and Sarah did an amazing job selling our home, engaging with professional, knowledgeable enthusiasm, giving great very responsive advice and guidance throughout the selling process. Our house sold very quickly (a few weeks) from our first meeting, and Sarah’s price negotiation on behalf of the seller was outstanding achieving a great better than expected result. Team Mary and Sarah have an extensive list of recommended services to help you through the process of vacating and preparing your property – all of which were excellent. As they are part of Arizto Whakatane, they proudly offer New Zealand’s lowest flat 2% commission plus $650 admin fee plus GST. We had an exceptional experience working with team Mary and Sarah at Arizto and highly recommend their professional services to House sellers looking for great results.

Great result, fast and stress-free

Great result, fast and stress-free

I found working with Team Mary and Sarah straightforward from start to finish. They have a genuinely personal touch, but behind that is a well-oiled machine, right through to the admin support behind the scenes. Everything happened when they said it would, and I always knew where things stood. Sarah's experience was a real asset. Her advice was clear and tailored to the situation. She gave me what I needed to make decisions without over-explaining, which I appreciated. Ultimately, the result exceeded expectations. If you want a conscientious, trustworthy team who will get you a great result without the stress, I'd recommend Team Mary and Sarah without hesitation.

Mary and Sarah made a complicated sale from Australia feel easy, personal and stress-free.

Mary and Sarah made a complicated sale from Australia feel easy, personal and stress-free.

Mary and Sarah were fantastic to deal with and really went above and beyond throughout the whole sale. It wasn’t the easiest property to sell, and with me being based in Australia there were plenty of things that could have made the process difficult. Instead, they made it feel surprisingly easy. They kept me updated constantly, were always happy to help with the little things like dropping off keys, collecting mail and checking on the property, and never made any of it feel like a hassle. A big plus for me was how comfortable they were using modern technology to communicate. Being able to handle things quickly by email, messages, video and digital documents made a huge difference when I was managing everything from overseas. They were professional, practical and genuinely helpful from start to finish. I really appreciated everything they did to get the property sold and would happily recommend them to anyone.

Excellent communication

Excellent communication

We had an excellent experience working with team Mary and Sarah . They actually approached us first with a fantastic off-market opportunity, and we are so glad they did! They were always incredibly positive, smiling, and patient with us—even when we brought our kids along to property viewings. On top of that, they went above and beyond by connecting us with great local professionals to help with the house. Their proactive, family-friendly service made the entire purchase smooth and stress-free. We highly recommend them! – JJ & Gurjeevan"

The power couple you didn't know you needed!

We could not have asked for a better team to sell our property. From the start Mary and Sarah were professional, welcoming, knowledgeable, and gave us full confidence we were in the right hands. For what we thought might have been a stressful experience, Mary and Sarah constantly went above and beyond to ensure this was a seamless process. We could not thank them enough for their genuine care, experience and wealth of knowledge. We would highly recommend working with team Mary and Sarah to anyone!
