I am super grateful to Michael for making the purchase of my first home such an effortless experience. His kind and thoughtful approach made every step of the process feel memorable and special. Michael’s communication was always prompt, clear, and transparent, and he consistently showed great consideration throughout. Michael felt very generous with his time, never making me feel rushed through viewings at the house and gave considered and detailed responses to my questions and emails. I didn't realise buying a house could be borderline fun and cheerful. But Michael somehow managed to do so...How refreshing after a long and slightly painful house hunt process! I hope all first home buyers get to have Michael as their agent 🎉

A great agent who achieved an amazing result! We couldn't be happier

Michael sold our place in just 9 days and got us a strong offer that was unconditional with a settlement date that worked perfectly for us. He was super easy to deal with, always available, and nothing was ever a hassle. Michael made the whole process stress-free and gave great advice along the way. We’d definitely recommend him if you’re thinking of selling.

Right from the first text message we found Michael to be responsive and very helpful. Michael has a calm, friendly, relaxed way of approaching the business of real estate. We had been looking for our next home for a few months, but within just over a week of reaching out, we'd made an offer on one of Michael's listings and had it accepted within hours - the smoothest real estate process we've experienced! Michael is a people person who takes a pragmatic, solutions-focused approach to getting houses sold. He was able to strike the right balance between being helpful during viewings, through providing guided tours of the property, to giving us enough space to investigate for ourselves. He was able to answer all of our questions about the listing quickly, and was an effective intermediary between us and the vendor. Michael genuinely seems to care, which you don't always come across in the business of buying and selling houses - we highly recommend him!

I had a rental property in Wellington. I live in Auckland. I had to find an Agent that I could trust and have confidence in to act in my best interests, without being in the same city. Luckily I found Michael. He is the ultimate professional. Right from our inital interactions he understood what I needed and strived to make this happen for me. He had the contacts in the industry that I didn't. He knew who would purchase my kind of property. It needed a lot of TLC done to it, after being rented for over 30 years. Within a matter of days he had sourced contacts who were interested in my property. It was just so easy having Michael in my corner and saved me a lot of time and money travelling to and from Wellington. He was in constant contact with me and kept me up to date with everything happening and even liaised with my tenants for me before and after the sale. I cannot thank Michael and his team enough for their fantastic work getting this somewhat challenging property sold!

Living in Auckland, we had no idea where to start when it came to selling our late Dad's house in Ōwhiro Bay, but thankfully we came across glowing reviews for Michael. We soon found out that every word was true! He brought incredible local knowledge of the Wellington market, had fantastic connections throughout the industry, and guided us through the whole process with genuine care and professionalism. By settlement day, it felt like we were working with a trusted friend. We couldn’t recommend anyone more highly in the city. Michael is an absolute gem!

I can't thank Michael and his team enough for the effort they put into selling my mother's house, allowing her to remain in her retirement home. There were a lot of obstacles for them to navigate, but they handled each and every task with professionalism. I would highly recommend Michael and his team; they are the complete package of professionals in every way

I was very impressed with Micheal hinds from my first catch up with him at my parents property. Micheal warm and approachable manner help me to trust and welcome him on broad for the selling of my parents home . Micheal is excellent at 2 way communication through email and phone calls. And also great at following up on how things are going. Michael collaboration with his Team at just Paterson was superb that is when I met Andrea jetly. I also valued Micheal time management when there were extra thngs needed Micheal was fast and excellent in making these arrangements. He has been extremely generous with his time towards me and my siblings Glen and Karen I rate Micheal high in his on going career and for who he is Thank you, much respect Henare.

Twice Michael has handled property sales for us.Doing the hard yards chasing up contacts he is a tireless worker . And you will never meet a nicer chap.Also big ups for his assistant Andrea highly recommend them to anyone.

Working with Michael and Andrea was a hugely positive experience for me. From the very first conversation, it was clear that they genuinely cared about helping us, not just making a sale. Michael was personable, easy to communicate with, and incredibly responsive—always available to answer questions, act on our behalf, or offer guidance, no matter how big or small. What truly set them apart was the way he went above and beyond throughout the entire process. Michael actively helped us navigate a range of unexpected challenges, while we were out of the city and country, making the process as smooth and stress-free as possible. One of the biggest bonuses was their network of contractors. Every recommendation—from the painter to the handyman—was fairly priced, professional, and great to work with. It saved me so much time and gave me real peace of mind knowing I had access to trustworthy help. If you're looking for someone who is not only knowledgeable and professional but also warm, reliable, and truly invested in your success, look no further. I couldn’t recommend Michael more highly!

Michael and Andrea were endlessly helpful and patient in selling our property- we couldn't recommend them highly enough- it can be a journey..but they did a great job and prevailed, in this somewhat nervy market. Jenni and Dave

Michael was extremely helpful and generous with his time, assisting us and the vender through the whole process of selling/buying a property. He helped to facilitate matters so that we could move on the purchase quickly and smoothly, dealing with reports and other issues leading to a successful outcome for both parties. He is very personable and efficient in our interactions with him
