Thank you Dirk for your outstanding service. From the outset you have been so professional and helpful in guiding me through the sale of my home. The auction process was well planned and seamless in its execution which is a credit to your whole team. I will be referring Eves Real Estate to all I know and thank you again. Kind Regards Nellie Reeder

I was an overseas vendor with elderly parents to move out and then sell my property. Sam understood that the sale came with an overriding job of caring for my parents' worries about moving on after 21 years from their home. So quite apart from hugely impressive weekly reports on market activity, pricing, availability, buyer feedback, regular WhatsApp calls, discussion about the impact of Covid on our campaign and in the end getting me a price in excess of my expectations, Sam willingly took on the extra pastoral role for which I am ever grateful. If you're selling in Tauranga/Mt Maunganui - Sam is an awesome operator.

Found Dirk’s knowledge and professionalism great and easy to get on with

Was a stress free process and no pressure, contact was timely and accommodating.

…..sometimes you meet a professional…sometimes you find a person who cares … not often that you find this combination blended…and then we met Sam Watherston! Thank you for your input to assist us finding a home for our children coming down from Auckland! Grateful…. Ron and Marcelle on behalf of Lee & Paige Saxby

Sam, thanks for looking after Andrew and myself, when navigating our first home buy. Great gift idea, everyone loved it. Legend mate, keep in touch.

I first met Dirk several years ago when my brother was working in real estate and found Dirk to both both personable and supportive. He assisted my brother in trying to find his feet in what is a cutthroat industry and these qualities stayed with me, which is why I chose him when it came to sell my property. I am a business owner and needed the facts without the fluff, which Dirk provided. I also needed to not think about the process as my time is precious once again Dirk delivered on this account. He's a professional agent and a good guy.

We have been trying to secure a property in the Mount for quite some time but trying to find the right property had become rather laborious. After meeting Dirk we shared what we wanted for our next property and where it needed to be and within a few weeks Dirk contacted us with an off-market listing. While he wasn’t the listing agent Dirk clearly has an excellent relationships with his fellow agents. We all knew opportunities like the one before us are few and far between so with his help we put ourselves in pole position and needless to say our property search is over. If it weren’t for Dirk and his relationships and proactivity we would most likely still be searching for our next move.

After meeting Dirk at an open home he took the initiative to stay in touch with me and despite buying my property through another reputable agent Dirk's proactiveness and enthusiasm is what won him my business. This was my first build and sell project via auction and there were certainly some uncertain times. I found Dirk to be knowledgeable and forthcoming with his suggestions. The ultimate sale results with a multi pre-auction offer was hundreds of thousands above our initial expectations - more money achieved in less time wasn't a sign of the market it was a sign of great team work between me and Dirk

We first met Dirk several years ago at an open home, this was when he was first starting his real estate career, it turns out we were Dirk's first ever listing and we can tell he remains grateful for the opportunity we extended way back when. Fast forward a few years and a few kids later and it became time for us to upsize as we'd out grown our current property. Dirk is now vastly more experienced but he remains as enthusiastic and approachable as ever. In the build up to our auction day we witnessed Dirk's work ethic in trying to secure as many buyers as possible for auction day, we needed a certain figure to make the next move viable and Dirk shook ever tree and turned over every rock in order to get the result we wanted. He openly delivered us good news while taking the same approach with bad news. Come auction day when we hadn't met our reserve and were beginning to feel deflated Dirk stepped his work ethic up another gear, he was like a dog with a bone and he wasn't giving up until we got the result we needed - and we got it! We've used Dirk twice now and guarantee when the time is right we will use him a third time!

I have know Dirk for several years and to date have conducted 4 real estate transaction with him - both as a buyer and a seller. While Dirk is a full on real estate professional and deserving of his high achiever recognition he's also a good dude. He always has a smile on his face, takes the time to chat to each of my kids when he sees them and is quick with a witty quip. I have utter faith in Dirk and wouldn't view a property without him and I certainly wouldn't sell a property with anyone but him. Tauranga is full of agents some of them good and some of them not soo good but Dirk is certainly great.

When we bought our new property, the market was most certainly a sellers’ market and competition amongst buyers was fierce; it was like Dirk said your either quick or your homeless. Dirk did all he could to help us get to decision making time as fast possible, he met us at the property several times including after hours when we could both make it and he never made it seem like we were a chore. We both found him to be professional and funny meaning what could have been a truly stressful time was a lot less stressful plus we had the benefit a fair few laughs along the way. For anyone buying or selling you'd be a fool not to use Dirk and his team.
