One of the best in Dunedin!

One of the best in Dunedin!

Our house went for sale on the 27th of July, and it got sold by the 19th of August - do we need to say anymore? Ganesh and his team have set the example of how to build and maintain connections, how to cater to the requirements of the seller, how to be proactive, and how great communication could convert a stressful selling experience into a piece of cake. We had ten times less anxiety while selling this property compared to what we had while buying this one. The experience we had with TRG is just incomparable to any other real estate agency. There are absolutely no negative comments that we can make about our experience. They took the onus of communicating with the tenancy management company and the tenants to organise visits, access and photoshoots. They organised the marketing and advertisements, with regular reports made available to us from time to time. We needed some minor work done at the property, and Ganesh and his team, without any hesitation, agreed to manage those jobs. The team held open days regularly and welcomed potential buyers. Within the first open day, it was quite evident that we had multiple potential buyers, with whom Ganesh and Renee started working promptly after consulting with us. This shows how their open and honest communication helped us in the entire process. We never hesitated to approach them, and they always responded to our questions promptly. Ganesh, Renee and Adrija work very sincerely with the buyers and sellers to provide them the best experience, a smooth transition through continuous and crystal clear communications, guidance, options and finally, peace of mind in the stressful buying/selling process. Without any hesitation, we will get back to them if we are buying or selling again. And finally, we would highly recommend them to any potential buyers and sellers - this is the team you want to work with, trust us! We would happily give them 10 out of 5 stars if that was possible!

Professionalism Personified

Ganesh and Renee set the standard for professionalism. They have a direct, clear communication style and their local industry knowledge is paramount. I have been impressed with their ability to put me at ease through every step of the buying process and would happily recommend them to anyone in the market for a Realtor.

A Rare Find in Real Estate

A Rare Find in Real Estate

As someone based in another city with a hard to sell listing, it was important that I found someone I trusted to take on my property and produce the outcomes I wanted. I was recommended to use Ganesh and his team through a few different people on the basis that they have a reputation for being incredibly trustworthy and hardworking. I think anyone can sell an easy property but it takes a really good agent to sell a hard one in a short amount of time and still attain a favourable outcome in a less than ideal market. Ganesh was tenacious from day one. He never gave up, stayed committed throughout the entire process, and always followed through on what he said he would do. He worked tirelessly alongside his team, keeping me informed each step of the way, and continued to push forward even when things became challenging. His market knowledge, negotiation skills, perseverance, professionalism, and work ethic is exactly what you want out of a real estate agent, I couldn't recommend him and the team more highly.

Very helpful to a first home buyer. Nice and warm to communicate with and always available for any conversation or questions. Does very well with follow ups in a timely manner. Helped a lot with the process of purchasing a home.
