Exceptional, detail orientated and strong communication - A top-tier real estate agent

Exceptional, detail orientated and strong communication - A top-tier real estate agent

We had the pleasure of working with Ari, and he was truly exceptional. Honest, friendly, and incredibly detail-oriented, he went above and beyond in handling the sale of our property. Despite the complicated situation, Ari navigated the process with professionalism and transparency, taking extra time to ensure everything was executed in a timely manner. His dedication and commitment made all the difference, and we cannot thank him enough. This was our first property sale and Ari guided us through the process and since we are overseas this added a layer of complexity requiring frequent communication which Ari delivered on to keep us up to date. We truly trusted us with our property sale and if you're looking for a top-tier real estate agent, Ari is the one!

Ari was genuine, methodical, and went above and beyond for a seamless, standout sales experience.

We could not fault Ari from the moment we first connected with him. He is, without a doubt, one of the most genuine and professional people we’ve worked with – a true asset to Ray White Remuera. Exceptionally methodical, incredibly responsive, and consistently reliable, Ari brings a level of genuine care, energy, and hunger to achieve the very best result for you. His advice was always clear, logical, and well-justified and never delivered with arrogance or a sense of superiority. His ability to read buyer signals was incredibly sharp, and his understanding of the sales process was second to none. Ari went above and beyond for us, and we always felt completely in safe hands. We couldn’t recommend him more highly.

Very professional and reliable Real estate agent

When given the task to sell the house, he did a very professional job. Shown us a run down on how he would approach his marketing plan. During the campaign, he works tirelessly to get people interested in the property. Kept us informed every step of the way until the auction. Would definitely recommend him to anyone who want to buy or sell their property. Very reliable

Outstanding communicator - excellent knowledge of the market - very professional

Ari gave us great service in selling our home. He helped us prepare the house for sale setting a very high standard with great attention to detail. His contacts with a range of trades people was invaluable. He communicated very clearly his approach and kept us informed through WhatsApp, always responding to our queries promptly. The preparation of our house for Open Homes exceeded expectations. The feedback he gave on the people who showed an interest in our house was thorough. We were well prepared for the auction and he gave us great confidence in both the process and the auctioneer. The outcome exceeded our expectations and the follow up has been exemplary. We are very grateful for Ari's expertise and commitment in helping us sell our property.

An Excellent experience

An Excellent experience

We found Ari Starr to be an excellent agent, his personal knowledge in the current market along with his professional manner and communication skills to both us and those enquiring into the property we found to be of the highest standard, unquestionable an excellent agent. We had this property on the market before asking Ari and used another agent, however we did not feel the same sort of confidence that we felt while dealing with Ari and the sale process. Ari kept us informed of his plans all the way through the sale process while updating plans to captured what was happening in the market at the time. This professional approach by Ari we believe is the sole reason our property sold in the current market environments.

Super power Agent

Super power Agent

We would like to share our feedback on our experience with Ari as our real estate agent. To be honest, our words may not fully capture and do justice to the exceptional service he provided. As time-pressed clients living overseas, we needed to sell our property quickly and sought an agent who knew the area and market, and who could guide us through the entire process. But most importantly we needed an agent that we could trust and someone proactive who would take the initiative, rather than us having to follow up and chase for updates. The task seemed daunting, especially from another country, until we met Ari. One of Ari's many strengths is his ability to truly understand his clients. He quickly discerned our needs and provided solutions, not problems. Whenever an issue arose, he presented us with options and promptly worked together with us to resolve them. During the marketing phase, we were impressed by his professionalism and his honest, integrity-driven approach with potential buyers as well as the approach he took to balance both the needs and expectations of both sides. Ari consistently went above and beyond throughout the entire process, ensuring all our timelines were met, compliance requirements were met and documents were all correct. His communication is unparalleled, and at no point did we feel out of the loop or like we were managing the sale from abroad. Even post sale, he continued to assist us by organising contractors for the final post-sale tasks, demonstrating his commitment to his clients' satisfaction right until the very end. What distinguishes Ari is his friendly, compassionate yet professional approach, his extensive market knowledge, and most importantly, his exceptional super power - the ability to understand people.
