Selling one’s family home can be an extremely stressful and emotional time, something we were not looking forward to at all. Having had previous dealings with real estate agents whom we felt had not truly engaged with us, but rather seemed more interested in just “closing the deal” without consideration of the “human factor” behind the sale, had us in a state of trepidation at the thought of doing it all over again. But life moves on, and after 41 years of family memories in our little piece of paradise we decided to sell. Enter….. Hielke Oppers of Tremains Real Estate. Hielke was an absolute game changer for us, completely changing our experience-based preconceptions of real estate agents. He listened, identified the points of difference that made our property unique, offered us sound professional advice in consideration of these differences, and kept in regular communication with us throughout our journey. Hielke engaged with us at a personal level, always transparent in considering what was in our best interest throughout the process, which is what makes him such a great real estate agent. At no stage did he put us under pressure as he guided us through the process of selling what had been a very special place to us for more than forty years. For Hielke it was not all about just “closing the deal”. Hielke’s professional knowledge, combined with his ability to do what is in the best interest of his clients, and the service we received from Tremains, should be the benchmark for all real estate agents and agencies in New Zealand. We can absolutely recommend Hielke, Tremains and their sales team to anyone considering selling or purchasing a property. Lindsay and Adele Lyons.

It was a pleasure having Hielke assist us with the sale of the property. He made the whole process proceed smoothly right from the outset, including practical recommendations to improve the property’s appeal prior to taking it to the market, dealing with all enquiries, and final negotiations. Hielke dealt with everything in an expert manner. Hielke even helped with tidying up of some items at final inspection stage, to make sure everything was in order prior to settlement. Along with his experience and knowledge, we have found Hielke to be incredibly helpful, careful, thoughtful, practical and professional. We do not hesitate to recommend Hielke to anyone looking to sell their property.

We couldn’t have been happier with how the sale, marketing and service was handled. Totally happy to endorse and recommend to others! Too notch!

We had an exceptional experience working with Hielke for the sale of our property in Rotorua. Living overseas, we were unable to be present during the open homes, but Hielke and Carl managed everything seamlessly on our behalf. From the very start, Hielke was honest, straightforward, and never pressured us into anything. He kept us informed of every development, ensuring we felt completely in control throughout the process. His availability and communication were outstanding – no matter the issue, he was always there to provide updates and guidance. The real estate market fluctuated significantly during our sale, but Hielke's expertise and transparency gave us confidence every step of the way. We are incredibly grateful for his professionalism and dedication. Without hesitation, we would choose to work with Hielke and Carl again for any future real estate ventures. They truly go above and beyond!

Hielke sold us the house and then sold it for us. It was a difficult market, and the house had some issues, but Hielke worked his way through all the problems. Strong communication and very strong problem solving approach are his hallmarks.

Hielke did a fantastic job selling our rental. His knowledge of the process, particularly the legal side, was greatly appreciated. We were kept fully informed throughout. He treated our tenants with respect and kept them onboard during the marketing and open homes. It’s no surprise he gets so much repeat business. Thanks Helky!

I have been really happy with Hielke, Beverley and Tremains. They felt like the right fit for me and were. Excellent communication. Very patient and gave great advice, while leaving the decisions to me. Thanks for helping me navigate a new process.

We are out of town sellers of a rental property and worked with Hielke Oppers and his Team through the selling process. It was a very professional conducted sale with great follow up and a timely and good result, for all parties. We warmly endorse Hielke and his team for all your real estate needs.

Hielke was very professional down to earth and friendly to deal with when purchasing a house. He kept us informed about the sale the whole way throughout and was only too happy to go out of his way when we needed something. We would recommend Hielke for any real estate needs.

Hielke is such a terrific agent! His calm manner, great knowledge and warmth of service make him so well suited to selling properties. You feel supported throughout the process in helping you achieve the outcomes you are looking for. Can’t recommend enough.
