Don was a great agent -good knowledge of the local area , and very patient and experienced professional.No hesitation in recommending Don for further sales.

From the very start, Don offered friendly, accurate advise, he made the process relaxed, clear and understandable. With extra demands from the new vendors, Don offered his free time and made a huge effort to assist with clearing and cleaning the land. I have a dodgy back so when I saw Don pull up with his trailer, I was overjoyed. Don came everyday of the last week to help us move from our large property. My family and I could not recommend him highly enough.

Don's work ethic is based on providing the best service possible to both buyer and seller. He took care of the individual requirements of both parties with kindness and efficiency. Don communicated clearly and effectively throughout the process, providing help where needed, and managing the timeframe requirements of both parties. He demonstrated professionalism with care for the people concerned. Don made this sale a pleasant experience, and I thoroughly recommend him.

I would have no issue recommending Don Stott Ir you intend to sell your home. Don is an absolute professional and very easy to deal with. He eased me through a frustrating period in a professional manner. He managed to sell my home in a tough market in a realistic time frame. Thankyou Don.

We found Don to be very approachable and easy to talk to. Don was very knowledgeable about the property which we were looking at possibly purchasing and could answer any questions on the spot. This was great, as there is nothing worse than an agent that doesn't know there listing details. As we were from Kaikoura (a 2.5 hr drive away) Don always managed to fit us in on the day, and time which worked best for us, as were down for a number of viewings. Once our purchase had been confirmed, Don went over and above his responsibility with his hands on efforts to accommodate us into our new property, which was very much appreciated.

Don was a pleasure to work with , very easy going with great communication Our experience was very stress-free Don was very organized and nothing was a hassle for him to sort Very realistic and knowledgeable with the market We would highly recommend him to anyone and would be more than happy to use him again

Don was very helpful and had a great welcoming personality, it was our first home and don made it a easy process . Truly grateful for such a stress-free experience.

Don was recommended by our next door neighbour, Todd Halliday. Don's initial approach as per our wishes, was to show several couples through, that he had on his books. This resulted in 2 offers, both a wee bit low for our liking. Not to be detered Don advised going to the market for a deadline sale which was to our liking, as we did not like an auction option. Don assisted practically around the place, removing 100 or so bricks and advising on the best way to present the property, first for the photography, which was a challenge (all surfaces clean and tidy not even electric toothbrushes on the en suite counter!!) Don then showed several couples around on the first open day. This resulted in a unconditional offer including an offer by the purchaser to make available the 5x9 metre end bay of my workshop and the 3 bay farm shed for 6 months rent free. This will enable Linda and I to easily vacate the house by settlement date of 27th June and store our furnishings until our new home is completed approx 8th August. Obviously, Don did a lot of work in the background with these purchasers both by getting them to lift their first offer and making the deal more attractive to us. Basically he achieved the gold standard of an unconditional offer. The Arizto model of home sales is very attractive with a known fee to be paid compared with others who are a lot more expensive, and then it is plus plus plus when it comes to advertising and auction fees. In all, Linda and I thank Don for his excellent work, and friendship , which reduced the stress when you are trying to downsize 52 years of married accumulated belongings. We will be thoroughly recommending Don and the Arizto backup, and I have been asked to speak to a couple of my cycling club members tomorrow about Don and Arizto. Here is hoping that Don gains another satisfied customer in the near future. Best regards Allan and Linda Wilkinson

Don has been a very supportive and professional agent. He has gone above and beyond with the sale of our home. I have appreciated his hard work and transparency during a pretty stressful time. I would highly recommend him!

Honestly don't even consider anyone else! Just hire him, he's your man!

Our experience with Don was seamless, he made the whole process as simple as it could be. He was very prompt with his service and communication was excellent and timely. Highly recommend!

Don is a such professional and patient real state agent. He builds very nicely communication bridge between us and the vendor in the whole process. Since we both have some special requirements, it was all solved perfectly by Don
