Excellent Result

We almost sold our home to private buyers but we eventually decided to use Karl as our selling agent, he proved to be a very knowledgeable & competent person in this field, all of our concerns were met, he kept us in the loop at all times & on top of that Karl got considerably more than the private offer but also exceeded our expectations with the price we received, we would have no hesitation in recommending Karl to anyone buying or selling Real Estate

Highly recommend - awesome agent! (Purchaser)

I was impressed and very grateful for how Karl handled the deal. Prompt, clear communication. Went above and beyond. I felt very confident in his ability to negotiate the best possible outcome for all, in a professional but totally relatable way. Thank you, again!

Karl = Awesome

Karl = Awesome

Thanks for all of your help Karl. I'm not sure of the ins and outs of what happened at the start with first round offers. We were annoyed when we found out we missed out first time around. I know this wasn't Karl though. Communication is key with anything and Karls communication was perfect, even making time for us while he was away on holiday in Queenstown. Thanks for everything Karl.

Easy going

Karl was awesome! He was honest and effecient. He worked well to keep us (buyer) informed and up to date with information. Above all he made myself and partner (first home buyers) feel comfortable and answer all our “silly” questions. Thank you Karl.

It started with a plan

I approached 4 agents that I liked from when I was personally buying a year ago to discuss selling the house. Karl was the one who came up with a smartRST strategy plan to achieve the best results, in which was delivered. Karl is an excellent agent!

A dream to work with

Karl has been a dream to work with. His professionalism, communication and knowledge made the process of selling stress free, this is something I am very grateful for. He has a clear passion for the industry and took great care in making sure that every thing was done perfectly to get the house sold. If you are looking to sell I would highly recommend Karl.

Karl knew of our tight deadlines to go unconditional on a property we were under contract for, with one of the conditions to sell our current home. He grabbed the bull by the horns and had an offer on the table that afternoon with a contract that worked seamlessly with the whole arrangement. We recommend Karl as his no nonsense approach got the sale of our current home and purchase of our future home across the line in a very short time-frame.

Could not recommend more highly!

Could not recommend more highly!

We were planning on renovating our house, but really struggled to get tradespeople over to give us quotes. We looked around one house we both liked the look of, just to get some ideas, and ended up falling in love with it! We offered on the house subject to sale, but the vendors were reluctant to have a long wait time. We met Karl and outlined what we were looking for: a pretty quick sale, a good price, and an agent who kept us informed and communitcated without us having to chase for information. We knew at the first meeting that we had found the right agent! Karl arranged a quick listing and photos were taken straight away. The first open home seemed to go well and Karl arranged to come and see us the next evening to present us with an offer. Well, it turns out he had 3! From the first open home, Karl created a mulit-offer situation which got us top bids without any mucking around. The top offer was subject to sale of their own property (in a similar situation to us, they had found the property they loved before considering selling their own), creating a knock on effect. By this time, we had negotiated on the house we wanted to purchase and had an agreement subject to sale. Karl was able to act as agent for our buyers as well and off the back of their first open home, got them an offer. The deadline for our sale was fast approaching. Throughout this, Karl continued running open homes and providing us with feedback from them. The week before our deadline, Karl had obtained a cash unconditional back-up offer for us, allowing us to go unconditional on our puchase. From start to finish, Karl delived on his promises to us. People moan about the fees that agents charge, but for us, Karl 100% earned his commission. He acted in our best interests at all times, kept us informed throught, worked all hours negotiating on our behalf to be able to present us with the best offer he could, fully aware of what we needed. We were able to buy our dream home thanks to Karl!

Best agent in Rotorua

Best agent in Rotorua

Karl is very friendly, down to earth and knowledgeable, He helped us through our whole purchasing experience, even when our first offer was not accepted and we made an offer on another property he checked up on us often and gave us advice. I personally felt he went above and beyond what we expected and have experienced with a range of other local agents. We got there in the end made another offer and got our dream home! We would 100% recommend Karl.

Professionalism Personified

In my work experience over the last 32 years I have met and worked with many Real Estate agents. Karl brings a reassuring confidence to the industry and he combines this with his knowledge and success in the Lynmore and Rotorua market to create and implement strategies required to achieve a top result. Communication was a priority for Karl which was greatly appreciated and we were left with nothing except a top result in the sale of our two properties, thank you Karl.

Sold in 5 days.........Karl Hereford at Tremains

After seeing other reviews about Karl's success, it was a no brainer for us to choose Karl as our agent. We listed on Wednesday and had an offer we accepted the following Monday. Amazing!! Karl also gave us great tips for staging our open home. We have had a great experience. I will be recommending Karl without hesitation.
