We were so grateful for all the support, understanding, and down to earth advice we were given. Amazing service and we had complete trust in the process thanks to Vaughan and John - highly recommend and we do so without hesitation


I’d been recommended Vaughan from several friends who had used him for their sales and purchases because of his excellent knowledge of the Hawkes Bay market. He is a very easy to communicate with and recommended the best way to sell my section and the whole process was done with ease. I was kept up to date with all the stages from marketing to the sale. Definitely recommend Vaughan from Sotheby’s who also are very reputable international company which helped sway my decision as well. It was stress free which was great.


Vaughan was very easy to deal with and made the whole buying process very easy. He was a great communicator and happy to take the time to answer my questions. I was very impressed with Sotheby's efficient service, with all their administration processes also very meticulous and prompt.


Vaughan and team have been extremely professional and helpful with the purchase of our property. We will certainly use them for future transactions


You both went above and beyond to help us get ready to sell and maintain the property throughout the process, as we could not be there. We really appreciate the straight forward, kind and professional approach. Thank you so very much.


Vaughan was unbelievably helpful in the process of selling our house. We have sold many houses over the years and found the level of service provided by Vaughan exceptional. Our house sold for more than we had hoped and the process of selling was stress free thanks to the care and attenion of Vaughan. We highly recommend Vauhan.


Vaughan & John did a wonderful job selling our home. Very professional. We would absolutely use them again in the future.


Vaughan has an amazing ability to get the job done with any advice we needed he gave fantastic options and we totally trusted him in our home seeing vendors in and out and reporting back with realistic stats Q&A. We found Vaughan welcoming, helpful, professional, and approachable in all aspects of selling 164 Vigor Brown Street. We were also impressed with the videography, and photographs taken. We would have no hesitation whatsoever to use his services again. Champion!


Vaughan and John worked diligently with me over nine months. My needs changed during that time – they understood and adjusted their approach. These guys are genuine – they are in it for the long haul. I’ve bought two properties through Vaughan and John. The first was a rental investment – they provided very effective communication with the seller to achieve vacant possession earlier than expected. They linked me up with a great contractor and have continued to provide advice and support during renovations. A great result, restoring the charm of one of Marewa’s deco beauties, and securing a solid investment. Vaughan identified the second property which is now my Ahuriri home. It ticked every box – location, sun, privacy, and character. I got detailed advice and support during my due diligence. They guided me carefully through my first auction experience. Five months later I’m continuing to enjoy the perfect result of their efforts. Vaughan and John know real estate. They are quick to spot issues and deal with them. Their communication throughout each transaction was always timely and there were no surprises. Above all they were always supportive of my needs and provided constructive advice. If you deal with Vaughan and John you are in good hands. Thanks, gentlemen.


What a team! These guys were amazing from day one. Awesome communication, lots of hustle and not to mention sold in under a week. Would highly recommend these guys for any real estate needs.


I would recommend Vaughan to anyone, buying or selling. We had the pleasure of working with Vaughan when we were purchasing a property in an unfamiliar area. He was knowledgeable on the things that mattered to us and gave us comfort that we were making the right decision. Vaughan was great when it came to negotiating the offer, he knew I loved the house, so worked hard to pull it together. I feel that we had the best experience you could possibly have in one of the biggest moments of your lives. Thank you Vaughan
