Easy going and got the job done.

I randomly found a dream home I wanted to buy so decided to sell my house and txt Gavin to get his thoughts and he showed up the same day and had a look around and gave me a realistic appraisal. He wasn’t full of bull crap and I felt comfortable giving him the listing. Through out the process his team were great at communicating when needed but also didn’t bother me with unnecessary communication and just got on with the job of marketing and showing the house. In the end the house was actually sold by another agent from the same office but Gavin and his team were still there to offer me advice and make sure the settlement went smoothly. I was a first time seller so probably was asking loads of silly questions but they were always very helpful. I ended up getting what I wanted for the house so I can’t fault the work done by Gavin’s team.

Working with Team Faulke was an absolute pleasure. Their knowledgeable and insight into the real estate market gave us confidence in their ability to market our property in our best interest. Gavin’s expertise in the Whitby market was evident from our first meeting. He detailed the entire process, including market trends, helping us understand the best option for marketing our property. The team went above and beyond, making the process smooth and stress-free with open and honest communication. If you’re looking for a phenomenal agent who understands the local market, we highly recommend Team Faulke.

Professional and Kind from Start to Finish

I recently purchased my dream home, and Gavin played a key role in making the entire experience feel seamless and positive. Even though he was representing the sellers, he consistently demonstrated professionalism, openness, and a genuinely helpful approach. Gavin communicated clearly and promptly at every stage, answered all my questions with patience, and guided me through each step with clarity and confidence. His knowledge of the property and the local market was excellent, and his friendly, down‑to‑earth manner made me feel confident and well supported throughout the journey. It’s rare to encounter someone who combines expertise with such integrity. I’m grateful for the part he played in helping me secure a home I absolutely love. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Gavin to anyone looking to buy or sell — you’ll be in excellent hands.

Trustworthy, honest, reliable

Trustworthy, honest, reliable

I honestly don’t believe he could have done better! A rare ‘unicorn’ in the real estate world and honest at all times - something we unfortunately didn’t encounter with others whilst trying to buy a house - sadly even others at Harcourts. We will not hesitate to recommend him to others and when the time comes in the future we will reach out to him for assistance in our next purchase.

Not the service I’d expect

Not the service I’d expect

I met Gavin once at open home and was confused to who was contacting me after that as another person not listed as the agent. Communication was very informal, unprofessional and rushed. Any contact other than showing at the open home and finalising the offer was outsourced to someone else. No personal touch for the me as the buyer and the move in gift was bordering offensive - paper plates, toilet paper, drink bottle. During the offer process, Gavin’s mannerisms made me feel my concerns weren’t important and it was clear he just wanted a good offer for the vendor. For a first home buyer and from talking to others in similar situations, the kind of service and support from Gavin and the Harcourts team was poor.

Found us a perfect house for our whanau

Gav not only sold our house but also found a perfect house for us to then purchase as well. Ticking all the boxes ✅ as well as providing us support during the auction to purchase the house, which we were grateful for. Thanks to Gav and the team for helping us in our journey!

Excellent communication and outcome

We recently sold our house with Gavin and had a genuinely great experience. His communication was solid throughout — he kept us in the loop, explained things clearly, and was easy to reach whenever we had questions. He also put together a clear marketing plan that actually made sense for our place, and he followed through on everything he said he would do. The campaign felt organised and well run. When it came to the pointy end, Gavin handled the negotiations really well and helped us get a result we were very happy with. We’d happily recommend him to anyone looking for an agent who communicates well, has a clear plan, and knows how to negotiate when it counts.
