Honesty and sound advice

Honesty and sound advice

We started our Journey to sell our property in Ngongotaha in December with Hielke. Probably not the best time to sell given Covid, banks and all the market uncertainties going on but as we had commitments elsewhere we really didn’t have a choice. All the way through Hielke kept us fully informed. We have actually used Hielke previously and so has our daughter. I think the main thing we appreciated about Hielke is his honesty and sound advice and the fact that he could understand exactly what our expectations were and guided us accordingly . If we ever return to Rotorua we would definitely go to Hielke if we were in the market again.

An excellent result

Karl Hereford has worked well with us to successfully complete the sale of our property in Lynmore. Initially we had prepared it for sale prior to the national lockdown in March 2020. Because of the uncertainty of the market it was decided not to proceed at that time. We appreciated that Karl kept us informed of progress in the market with updated appraisals. At the right time Karl was able to introduce a purchaser who presented an agreement as soon as we listed the property. Karl has been very professional in all respects and genuine in all communications. We would recommend Tremains and Karl as a reliable agent for all your real estate requirements.

Professionalism, Trust and Integrity

Hielke has just sold our unique property in a very challenging market and achieved an outstanding result. The level of care and attention he gives to the entire process has been absolutely first class. There is a distinct difference between selling a property and successfully marketing a property and we have just witnessed the latter. Most Real Estate Agents are good salespeople but few have the ability that Hielke possesses to provide a complete marketing package. Hielke brings a passion for Real Estate along with a unique ability to quickly establish of the motivations of both vendor and purchaser which helps achieve a mutually beneficial outcome. We would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Hielke Oppers to anyone selling their property

Friendly, knowledgeable and professional agent

Hielke recently sold our home of 19 years during a time of difficult personal circumstances. Hielke shepherded us throughout the full process in a manner that really reduced the stress as much as possible. He was extremely professional in all our interactions while at the same time being friendly and approachable and always willing to help us work through the many decisions and complications that arose. Hielke's many years of experience working in the real estate business showed through in his wise guidance and the clarity of his explanations at various points in the process. Overall, he really went the extra mile in doing his best to ensure that we got the best outcome we could in the sale of our house. We both highly recommend Hielke as a marketing agent and would definitely return to him if we were selling or buying property in the Rotorua region.

First rate. Engaged an effective marketing plan. Communication was first rate at all times.

Karl is very understanding of the market. He was realistic in price setting and looked to achieve a backup offer. He spent time getting to know me and worked hard to achieve the best possible result given my circumstances. I would definitely recommend him to anyone looking to sell in this market.

Karl has great people skills and is an excellent communicator. The whole process was painless and stress free. We felt able to ask the ‘dumb’ question and get an honest answer. Karl was very knowledgeable about the area which helped in our decision making. We would highly recommend Karl!

We have had the privilege of working with Karl in the past, so for us it was a no brainer that we would list with him again. Karl has excellent communication skills, giving good sound advice which made the technical process of selling smooth and easy to follow. Karl kept us up to date every step of the way. He was proactive to engage potential buyers and used his knowledge and experience to produce the best outcome. We wouldn’t hesitate to list with Karl in the future and would recommend him to anyone looking for a great agent for great results.

Karl has been great. He kept me informed at all times and all together made this a painless experience for me. Being remote our communication was mostly by phone, text or email. What I appreciated the most was a quick text message when required to stay up to date on matters. His negotiation skills are exceptional. I would unequivocally recommend Karl to sell your property.

Professional & Great Communication

Karl did a good job for us in a changing market , he is calm under pressure & worked hard to ensure that our property was well marketed. We interviewed several Rotorua agents and went with Karl as he is straight up and deals in facts which we appreciate. We would not hesitate to use Karl or Tremains again
