Professional and Caring

Forbes was extremely approachable from the outset, which put me at ease and gave me confidence knowing I was dealing with someone who was not only professional, but also someone who truly listened, understood the outcome I was hoping to achieve, and guided me through the whole process. Due to Forbes expertise and caring, he helped me achieve a very positive outcome. Thank you Forbes, I would not hesitate to engage you again.

Excellent advice, excellent result!

Excellent advice, excellent result!

From the start, Forbes provided outstanding service, knowledge and expertise in advising us on the best approach to get our property on the market and sold. With a limited time frame available, Forbes assisted us through preparing our home, listing live in a heartbeat, and ultimately securing a buyer with an offer within less than a week. I'll pick up the phone the moment I next need an agent, without hesitation. It's has been a pleasure to work with Forbes and Sothebys International Realty, they've delivered on all that was proposed and offered.

Feedback from townhouse purchase

Fobes has been excellent in dealing with the purchase of our townhouse. He has provided us with the insight and useful data prior to the purchase, and has been helpful in dealing with the paperwork part of it. Would definitely recommend Forbes to anyone looking for a property.

Great, Honest, Professional

I have sold several properties and can say my experience with Forbes has been the best yet. I appreciated that Forbes was really working for me and not just trying to close a deal to bank some commission and move on, as I have experienced before. I felt Forbes did everything he reasonably could to get the best price in a difficult market. I would certainly recommend Forbes to family & friends looking for an honest & trustworthy real estate agent.

An Amazing Experience

We engaged Forbes Howie to sell our property in Christchurch for us while we were in Melbourne, Australia. The process went like clockwork and we had an interested buyer within weeks of advertising the property. Forbes represented us well - and also kept us updated on all developments. We would recommend Forbes and his Team to anyone, on-shore or offshore, considering selling their property in the Canterbury region!
