Michael was very personable and very pleasant to deal with. Michael was very communicative, always available, extremely professional and was very helpful with things such as providing access to the house and remaining present whilst building inspections or valuations took place. We felt very secure having Michael looking after the property. Michael worked extremly hard to secure a sale in very difficult times for the housing market. Michaels long experience in this neighbourhood was also of great value for the purchasers with Michael able to recommend mortgage brokers and building inspectors. Michael was fantastic and we have no hesitation in recommending Michael to any potential vendors.

We've known Tatyana & Michal to be great property sales representatives in the area, so we knew the commitment they put in any property they represent to be of high caliber. This proved to be the same this time. We were extremely satisfied with the marketing campaign, communication and eagerness to help as they really did the best they could to help along the selling process, especially key for us being outside of Auckland through the whole campaign period. One watch-out would be the price estimation provided, as it was outside of the expected level seen on the market at the time of evaluation. We ended up needing to adjust the expectations as a result.

I enjoyed communicating with Tatyana throughout the entire journey to buy the St Johns property. She let me feel that she is a friend rather than an agent. She is forever cheerful and lovely. She is also very resourceful in providing ideas and solutions whenever arising issues. She provided much valuable information about the suburb, so I feel like settling in will be smooth. She effectively mediated the requests from both the seller and buyer to close a deal that satisfied both parties. I want to recommend her to all future property buyers and sellers.

At the first meeting we had with Michael and Tatyana we were already convinced... their support and professionalism is extraordinary. They mentioned that the property sale process is like a (short) marriage with the passion, commitment and ups and downs.... Now after our three months marriage we would married them again, anytime. Thank you for the care, the professionalism and not lastly the fantastic result. We could not do this without You.

Michael, Tatyana & the Ataman Team were great to deal with, their passion for selling houses and helping people really shone through, nothing was a problem and their positive attitude was awesome!

Having sold a few homes before, I decided that choosing the best agent for a particular area and price bracket was paramount to the success of the outcome. I met with several agents and in conclusion decided that Michael Taman was the best candidate. The result confirmed this.

We felt we could really trust Michael & his daughter Tatiana to do their best to sell our much loved, comfortable home of 50 years. We were aware they focused on Meadowbank & personally loved the area as did we. We liked the great relationship between father & daughter- each working to their strengths & to have a family selling our family home seemed appropriate. We realise the current market is tough & Council CV’s mostly an unattainable fantasy so needed to accept a price lower than hoped- but still the sale is unconditional & we are delighted the couple that bought it were like us 50 years ago with a young family & lots of renovation dreams.

We met Michael about 10 years ago at numerous open homes around Meadowbank area. He left a lasting impression on us with his engaging communication and dedication to his work. So when it was time to sell our family home, it was a no-brainer for us to choose a Michael as our agent. Now even better, he has teamed up with Tatyana to bring more of those great qualities to the team. We were very happy with the whole process, from open homes to the auction. Getting a sale under the hammer was a great result for us. We highly recommend both Michael and Tatyana. Thank you both!!

Michael and Tatyana were full of knowledge about our area and had helpful suggestions about how we could get our house ready for market. Michael worked to ensure our property was sold at a reasonable price in the current market and also assisted us in buying our new home.

We have recently both purchased and sold with Michael and were impressed by the passion he has for negotiation. His authentic style makes you feel like he truly cares about getting the best deal for both parties. We would have appreciated if our market appraisal had been more aligned to where the market was heading rather than where it had been so to better manage our expectations; the market dip was expected so consideration for this should have been built into the expected sell price. Also based on our type of house (stucco / cross-lease), we are not convinced that selling via auction was the best decision nor was it the best utilisation of Michaels skill set. Negotiation is really what he excels at! The whole process was, however, very smooth and speedy, with lots of interest as a result of the marketing campaign. We appreciate all the work Michael and the team did to help us close this milestone in our lives.

I am writing this letter to acknowledge the wonderful work Michael and Tatyana done in selling our house in Meadowbank. I have spoken with a few of top agents in the area and choose to work with team Ataman. At first, I don’t trust they would work for the best interest of the vendor. The market is very difficult, but Michael and Tatyana didn’t pressure us on taking the offer we are not comfortable. They always support us. We end up receiving another offer which is higher than the first one. Michael and Tatyana have negotiated very hard even though we would of accept a much lower offer. They have earned my trust by being a great real estate agent that truly fight for vendor’s best interest. After the second offer falls, Michael and Tatyana have tried different method of selling, and eventually we sold our house unconditionally. Although selling house in difficult market is a very painful process, I am very pleased with Michael and Tatyana hard work. I would recommend anyone who is selling house to use team Ataman.

I have known Michael for many years and entrusted him with sale of my home because he is a highly experienced professional agent who certainly goes the extra mile for his clients. We had been discussing the transaction for about 4years - he is very patient, not pushy at all. Michael is a most hard-working experienced agent who is passionate about getting the right outcome for his clients. He is extremely knowledgeable of current market trends and the local areas; this is very evident in conversations with him. His consistent honest and trustworthy approach were key factors to the successful sale of my property within 3 weeks of marketing it. Michael was a pleasure to work with and his dedication made the whole process seamless and stress free for me. He ensured I was kept up to date throughout the process and this meant I had complete confidence in his ability to achieve the best outcome for me. I highly recommend Michael and his team whether you’re buying or selling; you will be pleasantly surprised. 😊
