An excellent selling experience.

An excellent selling experience.

The confidence Jo inspired in our initial contact, proved well justified. She explained the sales procedure in very clear terms and all was satisfactorily fulfilled as we’d agreed in the beginning. Jo went ‘above and beyond’ to help us prepare the property for sale from a distance. She put in a lot of work, knowing the right people for the prep tasks and ensuring the work was done up to expectation. She even rescued photos and other items, saving them for me to collect when I could. We can’t recommend Jo’s communication highly enough as she kept us fully informed every step of the process. Also her market knowledge, advice and professionalism was outstanding. But what stood out for me was her genuine care for and sensitivity towards the people with whom she was dealing, which shone through, all ending with a pleasing result.

Thughtful, Careful and Supportive

I recently purchased a house with Jo's assistance and I was very impressed by her service. Jo has a very friendly professional manner that helps to take off the edge of making such a significant investment. She is knowledgeable, and genuine, and will go the extra mile to find out details for you. Most importantly of all, Jo is honest and I appreciated her willingness to treat the purchaser with fairness whilst doing her utmost for her vendor. I will use Jo's service again, when it comes time for me to sell.

I was super impressed by Jo's energy and commitment to get our house sold. She worked every weekend running open homes and worked with purchasers arranging private viewings during the week. She always gave us the feedback from the people viewing the house (good and back) and willingly took on our suggestions for countering some of that feedback.

Friendly helpful and made the process so easy

Jo was a wonderful agent to work with. She explained the process well and gave regular updates after open homes and when people had been through the property. She was quick to respond to emails and texts with any questions that we had. She gave good advice about presenting the property for sale and eased our minds about where we should put our energy. I felt that my mum's house was in good hands and even occasionally watered the indoor plants if they looked like they needed care! She was professional and yet friendly and approachable. Really thrilled to have had Jo as the agent to Market and sell the home.

Review of Jo Darbyshire

Whenever I sent Jo a text asking her advice or had a query about something, she would be quick to respond. She was always very warm and professional in her dealings with us....encouraging when the open homes went on for far longer than any of us thought they would..and went the extra mile when an issue needed to dealt with, in order for the sale of our house to go through. Would I recommend her to others????100%

Exceptional !!!

From the moment we had contact with Jo we knew she was the agent for us. Jo was highly professional & exceptional to deal with. Her integrity, honesty, and friendly manner made the whole process seamless. We were kept in the loop at all times and never had any pressure put on us. We were out of town vendors and a few things needed attending to. Jo took care of everything for us including reinstating the power to the property. Jo worked enthusiastically throughout our campaign for a successful sale. Having bought and sold a number a properties Jo has been the best agent we have dealt with and would highly recommend her services weather buying or selling.

Special Agent Jo

Jo was instrumental in the whole campaign from initially walking up our drive to introduce her self (cold call) to us taking her on as our agent. The journey was professional , informative , always communicating and proactive. She put a lot of work into canvassing the surrounding area as well as targeting the marketing to reach wider. At the end of the 28 days we had three offers on the table. When selling you never know if things will go according to plan, but the approach taken meant that between us we had put a well presented house and campaign together and that ticked a lot of boxes for buyers coming in . Without the experience and backing from our agent Jo this may not have happened, Great Job!!

The 5 Star Agent Who Gets A Sale & Not To Mention A 5 Star Team !!!

The 5 Star Agent Who Gets A Sale & Not To Mention A 5 Star Team !!!

All we can say is a “Huge Thank You” to Jo and the Team for getting our Sale “Over The Line” in what can only be called a challenging market (Jo is a "Specialist In Selling Apartments !!!) – selling is at no time is easy however Jo guided us through the process while contending with the ongoing Covid Climate, Market Forces caused by the War in Ukraine and NZ facing a cost of living crisis along with Sky Rocketing Interest Rates going higher each day – With all of this Jo got us sold and at the right price – which is rear as many agents just focus on any sale at any price (There's Lots Of Howick Agents in That Group Sadly !!!) After interviewing multiple agents we chose Bayley’s and Jo in Lawrence's Team. I also must say to the seller who gave the 4 star rating – are you mad and shame on you !!! – You should have sold with B & T and in this market should just be thankful for a sale !!! We also had the pleasure of working with Jo and team on our current home – We truly recommend using a “Buyers Agent” and Jo with her team for this !!! We are looking to sell again in the near future and will be working with Jo on the next sale and purchase as well !!! In the future we have more sales to come and when the time comes will be using Bayley’s !!! I also have to say that so many agents shouldn’t make videos - there are so many B & T examples among others of the Howick Agents trying however you can rest assured that Jo is one of the few agents who should make videos !!! Thanks so much for helping us complete our sale and we look forward to working together again in the not to distant future !!! I recommend to all Buyers & Sellers to Interview as many Agents as you can when you look to buy or sell and that you will not be disappointed when you speak with Jo, Lawrence & The Team !!!
