Respectful, responsive and results-driven

From the outset, Ben impressed us with his understanding of the market and strategic approach to selling our property. He crafted a compelling marketing campaign that generated significant interest and ultimately resulted in a smooth and successful sale. The entire team, including Matt Hourigan and Grace Henderson, were incredibly responsive and professional throughout the process. We highly recommend Ben and the team to anyone seeking a top-tier service.

We found Ben and his team to be great communicators and provided an excellent service level. The Marketing of our property was second to none, and Ben ensured the photos showcased our property to a very high standard. The advice given on the strategy and process was very helpful as it was our first time using the Auction process.

Very good

It was a pleasure to work with Ben and Ann on the sale of my property. Their dedication and expertise of the market and the sale process was very good. The appraisal was higher than the sale price but this was reflected in the market dropping at the time. I would recommend Ben and Ann as trusted Real Estate agents.

Great Outcome in a Difficult Market

Ben worked tirelessly and thoroughly throughout the whole of the marketing campaign for our house. The campaign was well thought through and executed to the letter. The outcome was exactly in line with tge appraisal that Ben gave. I couldn’t recommend Ben highly enough if you are looking to sell

Excellent experience

Ben is a fantastic agent and it’s a credit to him and his team that we achieved the result we did in a changing market. Ben worked with us to prepare the property for sale and bought in a team to do improvements and stage the house. He communicated well with us at each stage of the process and ran an excellent campaign. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Ben to anyone looking to sell in Lower Hutt or Wellington.

The best agent we met on our house hunt

The best agent we met on our house hunt

We looked at around 40 properties on our house hunt, so we met a lot of agents and Ben was by far the best of the bunch. Ben is professional, easy to deal with, and great at what he does. As first home buyers we really appreciated the time he took to explain things, his advice, and that he was frank and transparent where he could be. Even though he was working for the vendors we felt that he had our interests in mind too, and I think the end result was great for both parties. We'd definitely recommend Ben and look to work with him again in the future.

Excellent Agent, who works hard with his team to drive a successful sale

Excellent Agent, who works hard with his team to drive a successful sale

I met Ben, through a recommendation from my elders brothers agent in Christchurch. I live overseas, and needed help to sell my mothers rental property in Wellington, my entire interaction with Ben was remote, until the day of the auction. We communicated via email, video calls and many WA messages. I found Ben and his team to be throughly professional, they gave me clear insights of what was happening in the market, what would be the best time to drive maximum price and the best way to achieve this, which for us was through auction. Through Ben, we gained a very clear insight into what was happening with similar properties in our rental property location and what we could expect at a sales price. Thankfully on the day of the auction, because of the way in which they run their auctions and have a fantastic auctioneer, we got well above reserve price. Ben was patient with us, to explain the other options available to us and share his experience with us on the various pros and cons of the different actions. In terms of marketing our property, Ben & team did a great job of marketing our property to various segments, in Wellington, outside of Wellington and also potential international buyers - they have a very wide network that they can tap into to market your properties. I would highly recommend Ben and his team, they are sincere, honest, communicate well and don't push you to do anything your not clear on which I really appreciated. They did a great job for my family.

Ben was always very professional with all aspects of the buying and selling process

Ben was always very professional with all aspects of the buying and selling process

Recently we bought and sold houses in Wellington. We had half -heartedly been watching the housing market but the whole process of selling our house and purchasing another seemed all too hard, particularly as we were very attached to our house and neighbourhood of 20 years. We initially met Ben Atwill of Bayleys Real Estate as prospective buyers. We eventually bought the property and were so impressed in our dealings with him during this process, we decided to engage him in selling our property. Ben assisted us with the process every step of the way. He acknowledged that buying and selling a house was stressful, but he was able to decrease the stress, by anticipating any problems that might arise and discussed ways to deal with them. Ben was always very professional with all aspects of the buying and selling process. He is an excellent listener and familiarizes himself with the house he is selling, therefore demonstrating an excellent history and knowledge of the property. He will also quickly follow up with the vendor, if there is a question he cannot answer (this was rarely required). Ben is very patient never rushing us with decision making and actively encouraged us to take our time and think about the pros and cons. He was very generous with his time and went out of his way to ensure that an appointment time suited both the buyer and vendor (always checking with the vendor first) for a viewing. He is always positive and enthusiastic in his manner and tries every avenue to make things work for his clients. Ben will always go that extra mile and doesn’t hold back with helping to clean glass windows or crawl under the house to check something, even if it means getting dust on his smart suit! He has also checked in on us, post moving in, to see if everything is as it should be. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Ben Atwill to anyone buying or selling a house and would DEFINITELY engage his services in the future, should we decide to move

Great communication, commitment, professionalism and care.

Great communication, commitment, professionalism and care.

We really can’t recommend Ben highly enough. From the very first meeting he showed great communication, commitment, professionalism and care. His attention to detail was beyond anything we’d experienced before when buying or selling, and this was reflected in all aspects of the sale from the initial marketing campaign right through to the day we moved out, and beyond. His negotiating skills were second to none and we were delighted with the outcome, he’s an absolute star. John and Louise.
