Elgan was professional and very personable. From the first meeting to the last, Elgan made us feel comfortable with the process of selling our home. His knowledge and understanding of the market allowed us to make informed decisions in a timely manner. Highly recommended to anyone wanting to buy or sell their house!
Rarely as a buyer in this market do you see an agent quite as caring and genuine as Elgan was, as he helped us through the property search process. We met so many agents in our search for our first home, but only Elgan showed the continued drive to make sure he was keeping us informed, providing his expertise, and actually making it known that he cared about our purchasing journey over a long period of time. We couldn't rate Elgan any more highly, he introduced us to our new home and we're loving it! Forever grateful to him and his team, and we know who we'll be speaking to if we ever look to sell.
Elgan was approachable and very accessible when we purchased a property he was selling. He was also a straight talker which we appreciated also! Thanks Elgan.
We recently sold a property with Elgan O’Donnell whose communication and attention to detail was outstanding. We elected to sell our property at auction, and during the days following, Elgan, with his professional approach, knowledge, honesty, and dedication to our sale, delivered a result that we were delighted with. Elgan answered every call or email no matter what time of the day. We received detailed reports after each open home, followed by a weekly letter updating us on how the campaign was progressing with realistic feedback from buyers - his hard work ethic was much appreciated. When it came time to negotiate with the purchaser, Elgan impressed us with his professionalism dealing with both parties respectfully. There was very little stress for us due to Elgan’s management of this process. The property was sold after a very short 16-day marketing campaign, and before auction. If you are contemplating selling or buying a property and want to work with someone who is hard working, reliable and punctual, then we would highly recommend Elgan O’Donnell as your real estate agent.
Elgan helped us buy our new property, whenever there was a potential problem he was willing to suggest sensible solutions. From the first open home when we met Elgan he was personable and friendly through to the final drop off of keys where he made the time to meet with us at our convenience. He was always available if we had questions and made following up with the sellers a breeze.
Many thanks to Elgan for taking care of the sale of our first house. His market knowledge was excellent and helped guide us through decision making with great clarity. He kept in touch regularly and we knew what was happening every step of the way. Elgan is a professional agent who is dependable and trustworthy. Thanks again Elgan and the LJ Hooker team, we are thrilled with the sale!
Elgan was friendly and professional. He made the process of buying very easy and was transparent and genuine throughout. He is an excellent communicator and very efficient. We would highly recommend Elgan.
He knew the market and he gave summary reports as intrest from potential buyers came through the property. As we both work Elgan would call in and see us afterhours. He was very supportive at our auction and did not pressure us to make any decisions, rather he gave us all the options and let us make up our own minds. He gave us a lovely gift basket after the sale was completed. He went the extra mile.....he sold some of the chattels on our behalf, which we really appreciated.
Elgan was very supportive and helpful throughout the selling process and exceeded our expectations. Highly recommended!!
We listed with Elgan because he left an excellent letter in our mailbox. We had been considering another attempt at selling but were disappointed with the weak attempt by a different agency last year. Elgan’s organised and considerate approach gave us confidence to go ahead. Elgan’s approach reflected integrity and a detail oriented process resulting in our realising the price we needed.
We can't speak highly enough of our experience with Elgin. We were first-time home sellers in NZ and were unsure if selling was what we wanted. We worked with Elgin remotely in 2020 to sell our home, and we couldn't have been more pleased! Elgin provided a wealth of knowledge of sales, marketing and how best proceed with the sale. He brought in a fabulous photographer and videographer, which created much more foot traffic and brought in serious buyers. He also brought in a designer to help stage our home, which helped make it more appealing to a larger group of potential buyers. At auction Elgin's sales expertise exceeded our expectations and got a sale across the line we had only hoped for. He was always available to answer our questions and keep us update, as we were living outside the region. We had a great experience! If you are thinking about selling (and buying) we would highly recommend Elgin.
I chose Elgan O’Donnell because he was sympathetic to my house, and knowledgeable about the local market and how the house might be marketed. We talked about how best to do this and then when my personal circumstances became difficult he was equally sympathetic. I was recommend him as your agent,.
