Mike was understanding of the needs of a first home buyer, such as finance and the constraints grants and Kiwisaver put on the settlement time frame. He was friendly, informative and I would seriously consider using him should the time come where I decide to move on
Wade's is very aware of his abilities and how to put them to good use. The important things you look for in a real estate agent, rapport, trust, transparency, excellent communication skills and knowledge of the property market, made this a speedy and enjoyable purchase. We are beyond thrilled to have found the perfect place we can now call 'home' and it really has made our lives! So excited to unpack and put down roots. Thank you again Wade.
Thank you Mike, Wade and Wayne for your collaborate team work in selling our house. A+ Much appreciated
Mike and the team at the One Agency were very helpful in all steps of the sales process. They kept me in the loop every step of the way and made me feel in control of the process. Their professionalism, processes and attention to details were second to none I have encountered in the real estate business. However, the topmost qualities of Mike and his team were that they fully understood my needs and put me first all the way through. They were highly relatable and took my specific circumstances into consideration in every step. The sales process went really smoothly and a premium result entailed. It was and wasn't a surprise to see the final outcome. P.S.: Thanks again Mike
We found Mike and Wade to be totally professional, knowledgeable and helpful. We live in Wellington and we were able to do the whole process via zoom, calls, email . They were so helpful in sorting out the staging of the property, keeping the property looking nice. Would highly recommend them to anyone and will definitely use them again
Our experience with Wade Goatley was an easy one. He was available anytime in person or on the phone. At our initial meeting after our offer on the house, Mike Goatley was very helpful with Wade, explaining all we had to know and do. Wade was friendly and casual throughout, while being business minded about the purchase. Which put us at ease also. Ready to explain all we weren't sure about. If I ever used an agent again, it would be Wade, and I can't say that about many others we have used in the past. Thanks for maklng it all a positive experience Wade.
Great communicator and negotiator, friendly with an abundance of knowledge and experience in the property market, overall excellent experience with Mike Goatley and Wade Goatley
Mike and the Team at One Agency are boutique! We clicked with Mike straight away, he’s genuine, honest, and reliable but he also makes the process of selling fun! Mike is approachable, easy to contact and no question is a problem. Mike talked us through the different options of marketing and sale processes detailing the benefits of each. We took his advice and couldn’t be happier with the process. Mike was a great sounding board for us too as we prepped for open homes with two young children. Wade, Steve, and the team that support Mike are also amazing. If you’re looking to sell your house, choose Mike, you won’t be disappointed!
Mike and Wayne gave us the benefit of their wisdom and experience. We took their advice and believe that the quick sale of our house, and a very acceptable price, was the direct result of their attention to detail and next level presentation. Both were friendly and professional, communicated well, and had superb market knowledge.
Good advice was given, especially around the current market and setting price expectations, as well as an appropriate marketing strategy resulting in a quick sale. There were some unexpected hurdles in the settlement of our property but Mike, Steve and their office support went over and above our expectations to ensure a smooth sale process completion. We've been both a purchaser and vendor with Mike and Steve and would happily work with them again.
Mike and his friendly and efficient team went the extra mile to get a great (and fair to both parties) result at a challenging time in the market. Provided good advice to consider without imposing his views, expertly negotiated some of the roadblocks, provided professional marketing, and is well-connected to a range of other services to promote the property. He's also personable and very responsive to any queries.
Having sold houses before and being disappointed with nearly all previous agencies, this time we interviewed five different agents to find the best. There is a difference between a marketer and a seller. The interviews ranged from the pompus to the disinterested. Mike was the immediate standout who was both knowledgeable and relaxed. He has a confidence that is charismatic and engaging. I am happy to say that throughout, Mike exhibited a masterful display of knowledge and strategy to have numerous offers presented in a collapsing market. It was obvious that other agencies were reducing prices to get sales, Mike used skill, energy and persistence. He was alert to our desires and needs. He listened to and heard what we wanted. When we had a collapsed sale he doubled down rather than putting us into the too hard basket. Although I knew that he was extremely busy he never made us feel that he was too busy for us. Even when we had a second accepted offer on the table he continued promoting and brought other potential purchases, just in case there was a second collapsed sale. Having the knowledge that we would have another multi offer if needed relieved much anxiety on our part. Mike simply secured a sale in what was an extremely difficult market for sellers. He remained in constant communication over a lengthy time, bought in two multi offers and had a third ready to go. He was extremely professional with his dealings with us. I cannot speak highly enough of this agency. If you want or need to sell Mike Will have your back. He will achieve the best price and will put in the most work. He will communicate and streamline the process with your considerations at the forefront of his objectives. In short of you are selling ... Mike is who you want.
