Grant Longstaff

Grant was in regular contact with us, letting us know the number of persons showing interest, followed up and let us know whether interest was maintained - and if not, the reason, e.g ponding zone. His knowledge of the Waikanae market is exceptional from his multi year experience. He held regular open homes. Grant is an excellent negotiator and we got as good a result as possible in a very difficult market. He is the ultimate professional. Just before settlement date we had a medical emergency and Grant leapt into the breach to ensure settlement on time.

Worked hard on getting an agreed sale/purchase price

One of the best decisions I made with the sale of my house was engaging Grant as my agent. He was thorough and knowledgeable, kind and respectful, and helped me through the entire process with a calm and level head. Grant kept me informed during the entire process, Grant’s advice during this process reflected his knowledge of the market and was very valuable and reassuring to me as a vendor. I would have no hesitation in recommending Grant as an agent for anyone wishing to sell their house in the Kapiti market.

Grant gave me advice, on site, prior to engagement of what was needed to get this property ready for selling. I had excellent feed back from Grant before we engaged him to sell and through the two month period prior to selling, he has kept me fully informed after open homes and also during the week of any interest of people wanting to view. It has been a pleasure to deal with a real estate agent who I feel has been very honest and straight forward with me at all times. I have no reservations of recommending Grant to anyone.

I had an outstanding experience selling with Grant. Right from the start he was professional, knowledgeable, generous, and calm during an emotional process. His communication was outstanding keeping me and other family members informed every step of the way. He worked hard on the sale, gave honest and helpful advice, and handled everything professionally. As an executor selling an estate there was added complexity which Grant managed with patience and respect. He took the time to answer questions and ensure everyone had the information they needed. I was extremely happy with the outcome and felt that Grant genuinely cared about achieving the best result for both the estate and the buyers. I thoroughly recommend him to anyone looking to sell their home.

Grant was a pleasure to work with, very friendly, yet professional. Worked with us and the vendor to negotiate the best result for everyone. Explaining each process clearly and making sure we understood the contract etc. Responded to txt, emails and calls promptly. We would happily deal with him as a buyer again. The little gift and photo opportunity, with the sold sign, were a lovely extra touch 😊. Overall a great experience, even if it was a anxious one.
