Positive first home buyer experience

Alan was great to work with, I appreciated his transparency and openness. As it’s my first time going through this process, I couldn’t have hoped for a smoother transition.

Alan is simply the best

From start to finish, Alan made selling our property, stress-free and rewarding. Great marketing, constant updates, and his negotiation got us a great price in line with his original appraisal. He’s professional, genuine, and truly cares. If you’re selling in Christchurch, call Alan first – you won’t regret it! Thanks, Alan – absolute legend!

Luck of the Irish

We’ve used Alan before and we will use him again. His communication is amazing we were regularly informed throughout the process. His realestate and legal knowledge is superb. He’s incredibly likeable and our buyers even acknowledged what a great job he did for us. When the vendors and the buyers come away happy with the process you know the agent is great at what they do. Do your self a favour and use Alan you won’t regret it.

Gets results

Alan knows the market. His pricing was on which is important for developments to make sure the project stacks up. He gets people through, chases them up, and makes the sale. Not easy in a tight market where other units are sitting idle.

Straightforward and Trustworthy, Alan knows what he’s doing .

Alan took control of our request to sell our property from the start and we were seriously impressed as he guided us through the sale . We felt fully informed and well advised . It makes a difference when someone has the ability to remove as much stress as possible from a situation most people don’t have experience in . A very humble guy with heaps of passion . You need that skill to succeed and give clients confidence.
