Leon was actually a bit of a surprise!

We all have our stereotypes of real estate agents. Leon made me feel like he was really working hard for me too as a buyer. Great communicator and gave me a real sense of openness, honesty, transparency and genuineness. All the things I value. He made for a very positive buying experience.

First home purchase

Caroline very supportive and proactive in helping us in purchasing our first home. The process which seemed daunting was made simpler for us. She was the first agent who seemed genuinely interested in helping us find our first home. She was proactive in arranging viewing and had great communication throughout the process.

Caroline Hughes is the realtor you need!

Caroline Hughes is the realtor you need!

Caroline was highly recommended to us. We were looking for a home in the Hawkes Bay Area while overseas and needed someone we could rely on. We found her to be very professional and is a fabulous communicator, which is vital when not physically present for home showings. We found Caroline to be a great listener and worked hard to address any concerns we had in a timely manor. Caroline was a pleasure to work with and she was able to help us find a home we love! We would definitely recommend her to any one looking to buy or sell!

Asides from being a top-notch agent, Leon is just a full blown great human being.

Asides from being a top-notch agent, Leon is just a full blown great human being.

Leon became our agent one week before lockdown. We put our trust in him as we were so uncertain of what the future was to bring and being conditional on another house, we needed to sell. He took control of the situation, making us feel at ease with the whole process. Leon was able to still find a buyer, even through the difficult period of not being allowed buyers through the home. And better yet, a buyer who adores the house as much as we did. Asides from being a top-notch agent, Leon is just a full blown great human being.

Caroline was very helpful and respsonsive to our requests for information on the property we bought at auction. She provided a lot of relevant documents about the section and the subdivision consent for it. Caroline also acted for us with telephone bidding on the day while we watched the auction online, in the bizarre post-COVID new real estate world. We won the auction and are thrilled to have a place to build in Napier. I would absolutely recommend Caroline if you are looking for your next home in Hawkes Bay.

Caroline is a star and far exceeds her Company's reputation. She has become a friend and was spot on when we sold the section.

Seamless experience as a friendly competent professional

We first met Leon as buyers and had a seamless experience as a friendly competent professional when we secured this property. Recently as sellers – Leon brought a high standard of professionalism with a comprehensive marketing plan – including presentation (staging) digital, open home with great feedback every step of the way. A successful sale was achieved. We would highly recommend Leon.

Leon was excellent to work with and is extremely professional.

Leon was excellent to work with and is extremely professional.

He made the process of buying my house simple throughout with his superb communication and dedication to seeing the transaction progress from the first viewing, to the completion of the sale. Even now, weeks after settling, Leon is still interested enough to text to ask how I am enjoying my new home. That fantastic interaction is going above and beyond the call of duty, and for that reason, and the fact that Leon gave me multiple bags of hot cross buns (which I adore), I would definitely recommend him as your real estate agent when you are considering either selling, or buying a property
