Eugene was fantastic to deal with and helped sell my place fast and for a great price. Would not hesitate to recommend him as an Agent. Thanks Eugene

Look no further than Eugene for the consummate professional agent. His forthright honest approach and accessibility set him apart from other agents, which is why he is our go to property adviser. His marketing, advice on staging, photographer and communications are exceptional. Eugene works hard on delivering great results and deserves the success he works for. He is always presented immaculately, as were his open homes, and he led us through all stages to a great sale even in this difficult market.

Eugene has made the selling process so easy and relaxed, his "demeanor is don't worry we've got this". He was easy to contact, there was never anything that was a bother. His communication through the whole process of open homes and auction was open and informative. His professional but approachable manner had me sure he would find the best buyer for us. I highly recommend Eugene, he will sell your property and make it as stressless as possible.

We found Eugene personable, trustworthy, and professional. He was 100% transparent throughout the sale and purchase process and went above and beyond to assist with many of the questions that probably should have been directed elsewhere. We truely felt like Eugene’s experience in selling property in Ellerslie put him streets above anyone else.

Thanks Eugene for helping us navigate the the sale of Amy Street and purchase of Ramsgate St. We appreciated your patience as it was a big decision to sell but you clearly understood what we were looking for in our next home and facilitated a means to make it happen in a way that worked for us. Your knowledge and experience of the local market put our mind at ease throughout the process and we always felt informed and across the details. When we are considering our next move we will most definitely reach out to Eugene.

Thank you Eugene for helping me across the line. There were so many last minute questions and you were patient and supportive

Our experience with Eugene was pleasant, he was professional and most importantly he was genuine and upfront with our expectations. A very honest trust worthily person to work with. He was very experienced with the market and provided good strategies and advice to get our house sold. We consulted Eugene quite early prior to our house being even listed for sale and he gave us some good advice on what we need for legal consent and the work that was needed to get the house ready for the current market. He kept us informed every week of the interested parties providing us with a weekly summary. We sold the house under 3 months in winter which was great! Thank you Eugene!

We all want more for our house, and Eugene made it happen, though with hard negotiations and sticking to the plan He was amazing to work with and was always there for us, and kept us in the loop Highly recommend him to the get the price you dream for

l first met Eugene Yamamoto about 6-7 six years ago. He and his business partner Joanne Simpson were selling a house in the same street where I was living at the time. I noticed then that here was a person at top of his game, and made a mental note about this for the future. Eugene demonstrated his understanding of how to approach selling my house with a degree of confidence not-with-standing the uncertain market in Auckland real estate at present. He took me and my son through the way Barfoot and Thompson works, outlining a highly developed process designed to maximise sales. Strongly confident in his role as agent, and together with his business partner Joanne Simpson, there was always room for our opinions throughout. This ensured that at each stage of the process, that correct decisions were being made. I always felt as if everything was under control in the many different stages of selling my house and the price they achieved at auction totally exceeded my expectations and those of my family. Both Eugene and Joanne both have highly developed sets of competencies that are relevant to the role of real estate agent. These, together with strong relationship skills, critical to satisfying the needs and expectations of a variety of different stakeholders, were matched by a very strong work ethic which I appreciated. If I was going to run again in the real estate market in Auckland in the future, I would have no hesitation in asking Eugene and Joanne to act as our agents again.

I found Eugene to be helpful, easy to deal with and patient, with a wide knowledge of the locality. He has extensive knowledge of the property business, is totally professional when dealing with both buyers and sellers. I would have no hesitation in recommending him to anyone contemplating a move and in the need of a real estate agent.

Eugene and Joanne just helped us to buy our first home in Mount Eden. I'm not sure we could've done it without them! Eugene's professionalism was evident from the outset. We never felt like anything was too much hassle and never felt rushed - key when you have a million questions due to being inexperienced in property! We felt really well cared for, and most importantly, listened to. We were talked through the whole process from viewings, considering our finances and prepping for the auction. We would have no hesitation in recommending The Local Team and will definitely reach out whenever we buy or sell in the future.

Our family has had a long association with Barfoot & Thompson, so when recently the decision to sell my mother's property was made, we chose Barfoot & Thompson. I can, without hesitation, recommend Barfoot & Thompson to any prospective vendor. The professionalism, market knowledge and marketing advice provided by Eugene Yamamoto and Joanne Simpson achieved a sale result which exceeded our expectations. Steve Clarke
