We have had the opportunity to be both purchaser and vendor with Steve. His knowledge, advice and professionalism has made what could be a stressful time, manageable. Steve communicates regularly and kept us up to date with any progress or issues that needed addressing. If we were in the situation of needing a real estate agent again we wouldn’t hesitate to engage Steve.

Steve helped make the process to purchase our house very smooth. He was a great communicator, was flexible to our needs, and willing to go the extra mile.

Steve was incredibly professional and was very helpful. Also his knowledge of the whole process was very beneficial.


We love it!!! We had been working with Steve and the team from LJ Hooker for some time trying to find the next family home here in Tekapo, no easy task in the Tekapo market. Steve had the perfect home for our family in mind and reached out to us knowing we’d also feel the property was the perfect fit for us. The process was very smooth and despite some of the more complicated elements of property sales we felt supported and confident we were dealing with the best team and making the right decision, Thanks team, you made one of the largest decisions in our lives also one of the easiest!

It was such a pleasure working with Steve and the team from L.J Hooker and McKenzie Country Real estate, the benefit of the team is that they have the ability to really engage a wide variety of skilled team members to assist with getting the best, exposure, the best marketing plan and the best distribution to ensure the very outcome. We were well informed throughout the sale and marketing process, the team’s communication was insightful, honest and accurate, they kept us regularly updated and importantly they listened to our feedback and took this into consideration. I would like to take this opportunity to thanks Steve and the wider team that supported us through this sales process, their friendly and professional approach certainly left us feeling assured we'd made the right choice, the experience and there wealth of expertise was second to none! Talk to Steve if you need great results, we did. Thanks team,


Steve was one of the best real estate agents I’ve come across. No pressure or manipulation, he remained friendly and professional the whole time, with excellent communication every time I had a question.


Steve is an exceptionally professional real estate agent who is a perfectionist in everything that he does. He is readily accessible and did everything possible to ensure a seamless and stress free experience.

It is refreshing to work with an agent that has the perfect combination of professionalism and personality, and Steve has both in spades. Steve kept us up to date throughout the sales process, and we always felt like things were well in hand. We have worked with other real estate agents before, but Steve is one of those extra mile people, that cares about the finer details and gives attention to detail in areas that other agents wouldn't even consider. In our minds after dealing with Steve, we would struggle to go to anyone else for our real estate services, since we have had the pleasure of experiencing top class service from a true professional. He has set the bar extremely high for other agents. Thank you again Steve for delivering a great outcome for us.
