Proactive and thoughtful agent who was a pleasure to deal with.

Proactive and thoughtful agent who was a pleasure to deal with.

Clare supported us in our search to find our next home over several years. She listened to us, was always proactive and thinking about us but not pushy. She was always interested in the likes / dislikes of any property she showed us. When we decided to sell Clare was the obvious person to help us sell our home of over 15 years. She was very clear in her communications and fair in her proposal. She always listened and gave guidance when she thought we needed it. Her efforts resulted in a successful sale. She knew the area well and we sold within the price range of her appraisal. There were / are other properties in a similar price bracket that have not sold. We have no hesitation in recommending her.

An excellent agent for any seller and buyer!

I was the buyer of the property, which Clare Newtown Smith was the vendor's agent. I found Clare was very professional, easy to communicate with, friendly and very helpful even after the settlement date. I would recommend Clare to any seller and buyer. Thanks, Claire and best wishes.

Great Outcome!

Navigating us through this process and for such a good outcome. The patience, kindness, expertise and support was so appreciated. The time our agent was able to give me has been so valuable and comforting. I’m sure she does this all the time but the biggest thank you.

Very helpful

Clare really did go far beyond our expectations with helping us buy the perfect home. She aways kept us in the loop with listings that matched what we were looking for and no request was too much for her. She helped make a stressful time easier with being approachable and always on hand to answer any questions. We are so thankful that she ‘took us under her wing’ and are so pleased with the outcome.

As a first home buyer, Clare helped me with all of my questions no matter how small. She provided guidance on the best practices and shows expertise in her trade. Responsive and approachable. Overall, Clare went above and beyond for her clients.

Karori house purchase

Clare was fantastic throughout, a good listener who understood what we were looking for and was tenacious in her efforts to find us the right house. When we did find a house we were interested in, she made sure that we tested options so that we knew putting in an offer would be the right thing to do. She was very responsive (emails, text and calls), and regularly sent through listings as they came onto the market. Thanks Clare

Highly recommend Clare Newton Smith

Clare was an outstanding agent. She used creative marketing, kept us informed during the process and is one if the most tenacious agents I’ve ever dealt with. She is personable, honest and efficient and I would certainly recommend her as a real estate agent of the highest calibre. Clare gets results. I’d certainly use her again.

Simply the best!

Simply the best!

Clare was the agent for the first open home I visited. I’d only just started house-hunting and hadn’t yet done my homework on buying a house. Clare helpfully put me in touch with a mortgage broker and solicitor, and I was able to make an offer on the house she was listing. After missing out on that house, Clare looked out for other homes that might suit my budget and needs. Within a few days, she took me to view 54 South Karori Road. She once more helped me through the offer process, and was excellent with keeping me updated and supported during the negotiation phase. It was simply the best to get her call to say my offer had been accepted! In a matter of weeks Clare took me from being an inexperienced house- hunter, to a home-owner. She is committed, honest, genuine and highly knowledgeable. Clare is a true professional who does her best for both the vendor and buyer. People who hear about my house buying experience with Clare have been consistently amazed. I cannot recommend Clare enough.

Clare provided us with support from the moment we met with her. She was friendly, professional and well connnected with resources. This meant that often we could get jobs done more quickly which helped us with the sale of our property. Clare was quick to respond to our needs and was very positive throughout the experience.

Purchased a house.

Clare was extremely professional, helpful and supportive through all her dealings with us. She appeared to have excellent knowledge of the market. At times, she went above and beyond to help (e.g. converting a document for us).
