Richard maintained a calm approach through the sale and negotiation process with a multiple offers.

Richard knows his stuff. He is Kind and a real family man.

Richard was excellent to deal with & as an overseas landlord, it was great that he managed all the repairs, staging & preparing the house for listing. He was very professional & we can recommend him to others looking to sell their property.

Richard was an exceptional agent who helped sell my house. He put in so much time and effort to ensure a smooth and successful result. I highly recommend Richard and would entrust him with my property again in a heartbeat.

This was the second time we have used Richard to sell a house for us and we would certainly recommend him to anyone looking for a professional non pushy agent who gets the job done. Unfortunately, the flat market we were selling in was quite different to the buoyant market we were buying in. Despite this, Richard worked hard to achieve a sale for us over the difficult Xmas New Year period, allowing us to move to the mainland with some peace of mind, knowing that our house was sold.

Richard was amazing to deal with — prompt, friendly, and very accommodating. He went above and beyond to help us, and we’re truly grateful for his support throughout the process.

Buying 8 Cartwright Road was smoother than my morning latte, and that’s entirely Richard’s fault. I had a whole 'stress playlist' ready to go and didn't even get to use it. Now I have a house and a surplus of unused anxiety. Thanks for nothing (and by nothing, I mean everything), Richard!

Richard Lyon demonstrates exceptional market knowledge, consistently providing insights that are both accurate and actionable. His understanding of industry trends and local market dynamics sets him apart as a trusted advisor. Communication is one of his strongest attributes—he is clear, responsive, and ensures all stakeholders are well-informed throughout the process. He even picked my mobile phone after hours, family-oriented individual and I rate him very highly to anyone. In terms of professionalism, Richard maintains a high standard, handling every interaction with integrity and attention to detail, which makes working with him both productive and enjoyable.

Richard was awesome to deal with always easy to contact. Would not hesitate to work with him in the future.

Richard was great to work with - he had excellent knowledge of the local market, took the time to talk us through the process and helped us get the house ready to sell. I really appreciated his proactive communication and his tweaking of sales comms to generate more interest. We were very happy with the result and would highly recommend Richard to anyone who is thinking about selling in the Whangārei area.

I have known Richard for a number of years and followed his progress throughout this time. He is certainly a top representative with excellent knowledge of the market together with a wonderfull communication skill for both vendor and purchaser. I have no hesitation in recommending him to interested persons whether a vendor or purchaser.

We’ve worked with Richard Lyon twice - first when we bought our home in Whangarei, and again this year when we needed to sell it in a pretty tough market. Both times he was fantastic to deal with. Despite the low market, Richard managed to get us a better price than we were expecting, which was a great outcome. He was always super responsive, even with us being 12 hours behind, and we really appreciated his honesty throughout the whole process. Overall, Richard is a reliable, professional, and genuinely great agent. We’d happily recommend him to anyone buying or selling in Whangarei.
