Brian was the agent selling the home we purchased. He was very efficient and knowledgeable along the way. He was always willing to help on our requests and queries. Even left a little gift for us in our new home! Thanks Brian

Great agents that make selling so easy and stress free

Our real estate experience with Brian and Andrea has been fantastic. Brian has so much real estate experience and advice to give when selling. They were very helpful and provided fantastic staging. They are honest, reliable and professional. I would recommend them.

Excellent service, clear communication, and great patience

We had a wonderful experience working with them. As a Deaf couple, we truly appreciated their patience, clear communication, and effort to make sure we understood every part of the process. They were professional, knowledgeable, and always willing to answer our questions. We felt supported and respected throughout, and would highly recommend them.

Challenge Accepted!

Challenge Accepted!

Our family engaged Brian and Andrea Childs to help with the sale of a small unit (company share) that had been vacated by a family member going into care. There were many challenges to get the property ready for sale, a task which Brian and Andrea both advised and supervised given their wealth of experience in sales in the Upper Hutt area. Some items of furniture were also loaned to update the unit's look and show what a happy little nest it could be. The sale was not a short "sprint" to the finishing line. Prospective buyers were followed up and the family was kept informed of efforts being made on their behalf. Like a steady middle distance runner, the finish line eventually came into sight and with a high level of professionalism Brian was able to bring the two parties to an agreed position for final sale. As a family we are extremely grateful for the persistent help offered by Brian and his cheerful ability to keep on keeping on when the sellers' market was not in our favour. We would have no hesitation in recommending Brian and his team to any prospective purchaser. Similarly for anyone seeking to engage an agent to commission a sale on their behalf we know that you would be dealing with someone passionate to see the sale run its course. Thank you, Brian and Andrea, as you have seen this challenge "over the line". We are extremely grateful to you both for your hard work over many months. The Irwin Family
