Our experience dealing with Brian was really good right from the start. His knowledge and professionalism was great. He would communicate straight after each open home and give us updates regularly. I would definitely recommend Brian and Andrea to anyone in the future.

I think selling a house is a huge event and no matter how good or bad the estate agent you use, there will be some ups and downs along the way. Brian and Andrea were always available and were happy to offer help or reassurance when needed. They gave up their time to help with some improvements in garden and provided some garden furniture for the photos which was useful. The most impressive thing in my opinion was Brian's efforts with the offers we received. There was a large gap between the original offer and the final sale price. This was down in no small part to Brian's strong negotiation skills and his desire to get me the best price for my property. I am grateful for every bit extra and it will help me to pay for some exciting items for my new home. I don't think a house sale will ever be easy, but Brian and Andrea will help to make it as pain-free as possible.

Brian and Andrea made selling our rental property such a stressfree experience. Nothing was too much trouble, they were always friendly, helpful and hardworking striving to get the best price for our property. The free staging was a real cost saver and was staged beautifully. Would recommend this incredible team to any prospective buyer.

Brian and Andrea were professional before, during and after the sale of our property. They both have a wealth of knowledge of the property market, and appropriately guided us through the sale process. Brian regularly touch base with us after each showing. A pleasure to work with. Thank you for everything.

Brian and Andrea made our sale very smooth, easy and quick. It was totally painless, we actually really enjoyed our time with them both and look forward to using Brian and Andrea again. Thanks so much - definitely a top team with huge amounts of knowledge.

Brian and Andrea were great. They took every aspect of our house and went for it, getting a good result for us. This is the second home that Brian and Andrea have helped us sell, and choosing them for the second time should give an indication of how happy we were with their service and attention to detail.

Brian and Andrea were very thorough and professional in all their dealings. They always kept us up to date. The information they shared was easy to understand. They really worked hard to get us the best price. We are very grateful to them.

Brian and Andrea were a pleasure to work with in selling our property. They were very professional, knowledgeable and extremely approachable. As we do not live in Upper Hutt, the communication we had from them was outstanding. We were kept well informed of developments regarding open homes and interest in the property. A very successful sale in such a short period of time. We have no hesitation in recommending them to any future vendors. Thanks Brian and Andrea for your help, we really appreciate it.

Brian and Andrea were invited to make a pitch in obtaining our property listing when we decided to sell. We wanted to learn what they could offer bearing in mind the Tall Poppy fee structure. They answered all our questions in great detail and convinced us that they were capable of maximising the sale price of our property. They presented a marketing plan that at least equalled the competition and we decided that Brian was a good negotiator and as long as we attracted genuine buyer’s Brian and Andrea would obtain the best price possible. Bearing in mind Tall Poppy’s fee structure we saw no value in going elsewhere (we did listen to pitches by two other companies). Brian and Andrea were particularly helpful at open homes and went the extra mile in ensuring our house was seen in the best possible light whilst kept secure. Brian and Andrea delivered by obtaining an offer we were very happy with in a relatively short space of time. Our confidence in them was well justified and would use Brian, Andrea and Tall Poppy again.

Great pricing, very professional to deal with and very easy to communicate with. I would personally recommend Brian and Andrea to anyone. Kind Regards Karen Whiu.

To whom it may concern My husband and I have had the pleasure of working with Brian Childs and Andrea Taare from Tall Poppy Real Estate on the sale of our house. From the beginning and throughout the closing process they were always on top of it, kept us informed of progress and quickly were available when we had questions. Their proactive actions made this a very easy and smooth process. They made us feel as if we were their only customers - they are true professionals, who care very much for their customers and they delivered on absolutely everything they committed to. We never felt neglected or unimportant. Both of them are also highly personable with engaging personalities and if we ever move back to New Zealand again, they will be our first choice in real estate agents. We want to thank Andrea and Brian for making this so easy and we would recommend them highly to anyone who is looking to purchase or sell a home. Yours sincerely Karen and Peter Siebrits

I recommend Brian and his team to sell my house and a special thanks to Jim Taare for getting the best price for my house as I had a few setbacks concerning builders reports which had influenced the sale of my house but in the end Brian and his team got the result I wanted. Thanks again.
