Glenn Collins

We were given excellent advice through the entire process. Our property took 4 months to sell. Glenn was always punctual, persisted tirelessly with open homes even when many times no one came and gave us positive feedback. Not only did he get back to us on the day about open homes, but got back to us during the week with his follow-ups. In the end, thanks to his negotiation skills, we had 2 buyers which put us in a great position to get the result we wanted.

Glenn has a deep knowledge, experience and the smarts about real estate in Rototuna and the wider Hamilton area. He and Sonia have built a great team around them to help deliver a great result. Glenn is a great communicator and regularly keeps you informed throughout every step of the process. Remember, he is the expert in getting your house sold, so you need to be guided by his recommendations and be realistic around a sale process and price, especially in a sluggish market with a lot of uncertainty in the world right now. Excellent marketing, good follow-up from open homes and great to have the wider network of Lodge Real Estate who has the largest market share in Hamilton. Would highly recommend Glenn to anyone who wants results and treats you with respect.

Glenn has an excellent knowledge of the Hamilton property market, gave us good advice and kept us updated at every stage of the process. He has excellent negotiating skills that were needed to get our sale across the line. He was committed to getting the best outcome for us. Would recommend highly to anyone contemplating selling their property.

Market knowledge and personal fit to the situation meant we were full of confidence for the auction. There's always trepidation for things new but Glenn certainly took up the challenge with a very keen sense of priority and expectations on our behalf. Given the opportunity down the line, Glenn would be our first port of call. Thankyou Ron and Karen

Glenn was selling a house we fell in love with but mine hadn’t sold so I said I would sell through him so he was very active then to get the sale, but my original agent still had a week left to sell and managed to do so but the week before the move day I emailed him to ask the seller if we could put some boxes in their garage beforhand and when would be out final walk through. No answer, he just ignored me but he bombarded me to get the deposit into his account. I’m 70 and I felt stressed with the emails and voice messages saying he still didn’t have the money in his account. I told him 5 times I didn’t have the deposit, the solicitor had it but it was like he didn’t believe me but worse service was still to come. On moving date ( after not a peep from him about our final walk through or if we could put some boxes in the garage, our solicitor sorted that out) I rang him to ask about the keys to the house and what time to meet him he said he wasn’t meeting me as he had back to back meetings all day so my son had to drive from Rototuna North to city centre to get the keys while our removal men sat outside our new house for one hour with nothing to do and at $120 per hour and we had to hire them for a bit longer. We were so angry at him. He didn’t recognise my son when he went in Lodge and although he was already talking to a couple he was on the ball when he thought he may have a new customer and asked how he could help. I have bought and sold quite a few times and never been treated like this . So all I can say is Yes he may be the best at selling where money is involved but doesn’t care about anything else. Meanwhile my agent had come round 2 days before with my buyers and again on moving day with them so they could pick up their keys from me and ask any questions. She also brought me a lovely gift and had knocked $1k off her commission to help me. Chalk and cheese agents and so this is why he is number one because all he concentrates on is the sale.

Glen provided an excellent service. Has great advice and accurate pricing. Sold our property in a few days at above asking price. Would highly recommend him. Very polite and professional.
