We have found Caleb to be extremely professional in his dealings with us . We were always kept up to date and in the loop. He was professional at all times and got a good proce for our house for us . very happy customers
Solid advice, great communication, streamlined team, and a constant feeling that we were in very safe hands. Won't bullshit you - gives genuine opinions and feedback so you always have realistic expectations. Very fair to both vendor and purchaser always. Went absolutely above and beyond - we live out of town so were basically zero help. Their marketing best of the best - comprehensive on all fronts. Also: insanely responsive, in control, proactive and just a top-tier human. Paired with Allanah (all over amazing woman), Jonathan & Dan this is a team that cannot be beaten - I will take no arguments!! Would recommend to friends, family, neighbours, strangers, your dogs, all of the above.
I was very happy with Caleb and his team. Everything went smoothly, professionally and communication was excellent.
We've used Caleb to sell our property in the past and were so impressed we got him back for this one. He's professional, sharp, understands the market well, and has good advice. Very reliable and cheaper than the large companies but provides the same or better service and marketing.
Caleb was a wonderful person to work with as we bought our first home
Caleb was very friendly and we would recommend anyone selling a property to get in touch with him.
From start to finish, the experience with Caleb and the team at Griffioen was outstanding. Communication was excellent across the whole team: regular updates, clear guidance at each stage, and really good seller-facing software that meant I always knew what was happening and what was coming next. It felt super organised and professional rather than reactive. On a personal level: the whole team was friendly, genuine, and a pleasure to deal with. A small but telling touch was turning up with refreshments while I was in the middle of interior painting; completely unnecessary, but hugely appreciated and very on-brand for how thoughtful and supportive Caleb was throughout the process. Caleb moved straight into action with the sale; with a few private viewings and an early offer before the property even officially hit the market! This immediately gave me confidence that the strategy was right on the mark. Marketing was strong across Trade Me and other online channels (including perfectly placed puns), generating good enquiry and healthy open home numbers. The auction process itself was handled brilliantly: well run, well promoted, and even half the neighbourhood was invited along (helped, no doubt, by Mr Whippy in attendance!). The atmosphere and competition this created absolutely contributed to a great result. All up, I would have no hesitation recommending Caleb, and his team, Jonathan and Allanah, to anyone selling in Christchurch. Professional, proactive, and genuinely great people to work with. 10 out of 5 stars!
Caleb and his team are great to work with, they have excellent communication and knowledge and achieved a great result on the day!
Purchasing our first home brought up some challenges that both Caleb and Jonathan worked through with us very professionally. It's common knowledge that the agent works for the vendor, but Caleb's ability to pivot to not only look after our best interests, but to go into bat for us and preserver with great tenacity was much appreciated! Thank you again to Caleb and his team.
I cannot recommend Caleb highly enough. He is a very clever agent with a great eye for seeing and maximising the potential of a property through his advice and marketing. Caleb was by our side from before we began renovations until the day we got a great result. He is genuine, honest, provides sound and measured advice, and is really committed to doing the best he can for his clients and buyers alike. Caleb and his awesome team made what was a very nerve-racking prospect feel much less intimidating. I would (and have!) recommended Caleb to everyone.
Selling my property from out of town could have been a stressful process, but Caleb and his team made everything surprisingly smooth and manageable. Because I wasn’t based in Christchurch, I relied heavily on their guidance and communication—and they delivered exceptionally well. The team coordinated the entire process, including liaising with my property manager, organising cleaning, arranging the repainting of the entire house, and ensuring the property was properly prepared for the market. They kept me updated at every stage and were always easy to reach, which gave me a lot of confidence despite the distance. What I appreciated most was their honesty, practical advice, and strong understanding of the local market. Their experience clearly made a positive difference. The sale went through efficiently and without unnecessary complications. I’m very grateful for all their help and would highly recommend Caleb and the team to anyone looking to sell—especially those who need reliable support to manage the process remotely.
Caleb did an amazing job selling my parents rental property after another agent let them down. I was super impressed with the streamlined communication, the marketing was great and he got the job done.
