Colette Van Der Westhuizen

Colette was very personable and attentive during the viewing and offer process, once our offer was accepted this changed. We had a long settlement period and we tried to communicate with Colette on several occasions via phone calls, texts, emails and a phone call to the office with no response. This communication was because we wished to view the house and get some measurements before moving in. Colette then responded to us in regards to a pre-settlement inspection and did not acknowledge or excuse the fact that she has not responded to us over the last month. On the day of settlement there was minimal communication and a key was left in the lock box with a text of the code and ‘congratulations’. No follow up post move in. Overall we were disappointed and felt let down after our initial positive interactions with her.

My agent Colette was wonderful to work with during my personal journey. Colette was professional, friendly, supportive, knowledgeable of the current market, transparent with her communication and overall she had excellent listening skills. The process was seamless. Colette provided me reassurance when it was needed and support throughout along with great staging tips for the open homes. We had the best outcome for the sale of my home. I would highly recommend Colette to be your agent.

One of the best things about working with Colette is that she is so easy to get on with. She was very attentive to my needs, listening to my requirements and making plans to visit the homes that met my criteria. Apart from her professionalism and integrity, I felt very comfortable having Colette working on my behalf. Her hard work resulted in a wonderful outcome for me in finding my new home. I cannot recommend Colette highly enough.

We worked with Colette as a buyers’ agent to purchase our home in Christchurch, and we couldn’t be happier with her services. House hunting became a breeze. Colette is extremely knowledgeable about the local market and she took us to homes based on our requirements and within our budget. When it comes to an auction, watch out for Colette! No need for nerves when Colette is doing your bidding. We formed a great relationship with Colette during the house buying process, and I can’t thank her enough for making the house purchase a fun and exciting experience.

Colette is an absolute gem in the real-estate industry. She listened carefully to what we wanted, found us exactly what we were looking for, and within budget! Meticulous in her research, accurately predicting the market and auction trends, Colette is punctual, knowledgeable, and always professional. She is kind and generous with her time and wisdom and a pleasure to deal with.
