Finding the right buyer

Derek and Matt were confident and efficient in getting our house sold. It's a tricky market out there at the moment but they did an amazing job for us - got the sale we wanted at auction by finding the right buyer. We would happily recommend Derek, Matt and their team to anyone.

Derek and Matt displayed great empathy and professionalism

Derek and Matt displayed great empathy and professionalism during the recent sale of our house after taking over from another agency. They produced a quick result and were true to their word. They are clearly experts in the property industry and focused on getting the best result for their client not themselves. We have no hesitation in recommending them to anyone looking to sell their property.

Really appreciate it!

Really appreciate it!

Thanks for all the help on the way through. That was a super hard sell with the title issue and we managed to get a great result. Don't think many agents would have been able to sort through that and get across the line. Really appreciate it.

Derek and Matt know Pt Chevalier intimately

We recently sold our beloved family bungalow through the Professionals of Point Chevalier and were very pleased with the result. Derek and Matt ‘know point Chev’ intimately and provide positive practical advice in preparing your property for sale and the ‘general lay of the land'. They are passionate at what they do and do a great job in marketing your property to your unique situation, find the right purchasers’ and adopt an auction sales method - which gets results. We were happy with the result and would highly recommend the Professionals team if you are selling your property in the area.

Genuine, hardworking team

Genuine, hardworking team

Thanks Derek, Matt, Gina and Angela for all your incredible support and guidance. To anyone looking to sell in central Auckland make sure you speak to the Professionals, you won’t find a more genuine, hardworking team. Their knowledge of Pt Chev is certainly impressive - I wouldn’t be surprised if they know every home. But it’s their customer service which truely stands out - from their advice on presentation / staging (make sure you do everything they say) to their calm, pragmatic approach and ability to connect with buyers, they really do go the extra mile. Thank you team!

Proactive, professional and knowledgeable

I am delighted that I chose Derek and Matt as my agents. When I met them I felt they would be good to work with as they were open, honest, energetic and listened to my needs. They were also proactive, professional and knowledgeable from the get go. This was all backed up by other clients I spoke to, who were both current vendors and recent sellers. Derek and Matt have not disappointed. They make a great team and have willingly gone the extra mile to help make a good sale, with no task has phasing them. I would happily work with them again and thoroughly recommend them to anyone selling a property.

Exceeded my expectations

Well old son thanks has to go to you and your team. I personally have to say you guys have exceeded my expectations with the sale of our family home. Without a doubt, The Professionals Pt. Chevalier, are just that, PROFESSIONAL. The best real estate company between here & Hawaii. That’s a fact Derek. A big thank you to Gina too, for letting Derek away from the family to do all the work required for us. Looking forward to the lunch / dinner date. You’ve made this family very happy.
