Again, I have been extremely happy with Michael Rae's handling of my property for sale.

Again, I have been extremely happy with Michael Rae's handling of my property for sale.

Michael has been very professional in his approach to ensuring my Property was ready for sale. His knowledge of the current market was really important in the timing for putting my Apartment up for sale. He was accurate in his assessment of legal details , and very professional in all of his dealings with the many legal and other people he needed to liaise with. He kept me up to date with the situation , which was very important as I am now living in the North Island. This was the third property Michael has sold for me over a period of at least fourteen years , and I would recommend him to anyone either in the process of buying or selling.

Hardworking and Compassionate

Michael Rea and his team helped us sell our home during a particularly challenging period in our life. Throughout the process, Michael showed genuine understanding, patience and compassion, which I really appreciated. Selling in a challenging market is never easy, but Michael worked hard throughout the process, keeping us informed with weekly updates that were always interesting and helpful to read. His communication, dedication and compassionate approach made a real difference. We were pleased to achieve a sale price we were happy with, and I’m incredibly grateful to Michael and his team for all the hard work they put into making that happen. I would happily recommend Michael to anyone looking for a hardworking, professional and genuinely caring real estate agent.

Couldn’t recommend the team enough!

Couldn’t recommend the team enough!

We can’t thank Michael Rae and the team enough, especially Anton, for all his help with the purchase of our home! 🏡 From start to finish, Anton was absolutely awesome to deal with, always happy to help, answer our questions, and make the whole process as smooth as possible. Buying a home is a huge milestone, and having someone so helpful, approachable, and easy to communicate with made such a difference for us. We’re so excited to be in our new home and really appreciate all the effort the team put in to help make it happen. Thanks again for being such a great part of our home-buying journey! We would absolutely recommend Michael Rae and the team to anyone looking to buy or sell. 😊

Highly Recommend Team Rea

Although our property took longer to sell than we expected, the entire team has been great. Very happy to have listed with Michael as we have sold with him before. We have been impressed with the whole team (Agents & Admin) working hard to get the final result. Having the Whatsapp group to communicate the open homes and buyer visits was extremely useful to keep us all updated. We appreciated all the effort put into all the open homes and followups. Also want to acknowledge Chris for his support and perserverence, particularly when the initial sale fell through! Thanks Team Rea.
