When all hope seemed lost, the light at the end of the tunnel was barely visible and I was all alone with a huge problem, John didn’t just assist, he inspired. He mentored me through what felt like an impossible sale with unwavering dedication, patience, and empathy. I chose John because he leads with heart, listens deeply, and navigates every challenge with calm expertise. I am truly grateful the universe brought John into my life. I honestly don’t believe I would have reached the end goal without him. Thanks to his guidance, what once felt unachievable became a reality. I couldn’t have asked for a better agent or a better human to have by my side. From the bottom of my heart, thank you John!

From start to finish, my real estate experience was outstanding. John was not only professional and highly skilled, but also kind and genuinely caring. Their guidance ensured I always felt informed and confident throughout the process. Thanks to their expertise, I achieved a fantastic sale price, and the entire journey was smooth and stress-free. If you're looking for a dedicated agent who prioritizes both results and relationships, I highly recommend John Donnelly!

John worked hard for us and got our property sold. We are thankful for his time and efforts. His communication professionalism and market knowledge were all A+

From our perspective John had a really good handle on the market and set our expectations appropriately enabling us to sell at a good price in the current market.

John was great to deal with throughout our buying journey with him. He was well informed and helpful. Thanks John.

We, collectively as a trust, believe John has certainly earned a 5 star review. In an extremely challenging market, John systematically and logically tested the market until a fair price was found. Even when a buyer was 90% over the line, he kept marketing to secure a backup offer in case it was needed. John worked hard to keep us informed along the way which was vital to help us make decisions. Thanks for your efforts John. Much appreciated.

Great Experience. I recently purchased a property through the Harcourts team where John Donnelly was the agent. I found John to be very professional and easy to communicate with. John guided me through the entire sale process, starting from the initial open home through to unconditional . There was no pressure at any stage, and everything was explained and managed really well. I would definitely recommend John to any prospective buyer or seller of real estate.

Extremely professional marketing campaign. Kept us informed all the way through. He and the auctioneer realized us a great price for our home. John has continued to work with us since the auction to help the time until settlement run smoothly.

John was great. Kept me informed and gave great advice in this changing market. I'm happy with the time it took and the result.

John brought profesionalism to the table. He was flexible enough to cater to our needs, aswell as steering us down the right path when it comes to marketing. We went with a premium marketing package. John presented really well and done an amazing job as the face an voice of our home. He appraised the house accurately as he did plenty of research into previous sales in the area and knows Lower Hutt so well. We kept john busy with 45 groups over a 3 week tender process and he performed well keeping tabs on all groups and guiding groups down the tender process. Good job John!

John was kind and friendly. He answered all our questions and made us feel comfortable. We would recommend working with John!

Having known John personally for some years, I thought carefully about engaging with him professionally, based on the old advice "do not mix business with pleasure". However, John's considerable experience, and ongoing success in achieving the best outcomes for his clients speak meant I didn't consider anyone else. John is highly knowledgeable and informed about all aspects requiring consideration, and is able to provide thorough advice to inform his client's decision-making. He is not afraid to acknowledge areas he is uncertain about, always providing reasons. I know John did his very best for me and I believe we worked well together "as a team". I would, and have, recommended him to others with no reservations.
