Working with Deb has been great! She is very approachable, answered all our queries and worked hard to ensure everything fell into place! With her help we felt confident during the auction process and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her services.
I had appraisals from three local real estate agents. My choice of Deb Starr was largely on personality - she's a delightful, normal and relaxed Kiwi who understood exactly what my needs were - I was wanting to sell my home of 31 years prior to moving to a retirement village. Her knowledge of the local St Heliers market was also excellent - she works from Ray White's Remuera office but lives in St Heliers. Deb's advice on marketing was spot-on and resulted in lots of interest. She also advised me on presentation and brought around a few of her own draperies for the photo shoot. Deb held 10 open homes plus a number of private viewings, with assistance from her very pleasant husband, Trevor. In a depressed market, I wasn't confident of getting the price I needed. I had opted for auction but, 5 days prior to auction, Deb called with an attractive offer subject to taking the property off the market. I agreed to that, the deposit was received next day and papers signed the following day. The property was only on the market for 30 days. I received a price adequate for my retirement home purchase and ongoing needs and my home was sold to a delightful young couple who appear to value my home and garden as much as I did.
I'm thrilled to have worked with Deb to sell my house. Her professionalism, positivity, and exceptional communication skills truly impressed me. Despite the challenges throughout the process, Deb was always adaptable, listening closely and adjusting her approach to fit the circumstances. I'm a very happy customer and highly recommend her!
Deb (and Trevor), were amazing with their insights, advice and engagement with us as first time vendors and with prospective buyers. Deb's tireless approach to ensuring informed decisions can be made as a vendor can't be over stated. Her engaging relatable nature, makes one as the vendor, and as a purchaser feel at ease. We felt at ease with amazing support from Deb throughout the journey of preparing for and selling our property. Super Starr for sure :)
Deb has made me feel slightly better about real estate agents. She was helpful, friendly, not super pushy and genuine.
We highly recommend Deb as your agent. She communicates well and worked so hard for a great result. She makes the process easy and communicates very well. Gives you all the options and supports you all the way without being pushy.
Deborah's friendly manner put us at ease as she explained every step of the sales process in detail, with excellent market knowledge. Regular updates as well as a willingness to field complexities from buyers made the whole sale journey a lot easier than it could have been. With a professional and friendly manner, she made sure that we were aware of all options at each stage, without pressuring us.
Selling a house quickly and efficiently requires planning and execution of a marketing plans together with personal professional skills Look no further than Deb if you want a successful sale
Deb was incredibly helpful throughout our first house buying process. She allowed us to view the house when we wanted to, answered all our questions promptly and spoke us through the process. Overall it was a great buying experience.
Hi Deborah, Just a short note to thank you so much for all the effort you have put in to selling my property. Your dedication and professionalism during the marketing and sale was second to none. I would have no hesitation to recommending your service and skills for any real estate requirements. Best regards. Douglas Anderson.
Deb is not your stereotypical agent 😊 She is thoughtful, kind and friendly. She also has the smarts to get the job done, and works super hard to make sure every possible buyer is given a chance.
Nice and friendly communication. Professional in the area, detailed, and explains things well. Easy to understand.
