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.

I would highly recommend John. He has excellent knowledge of the housing market, different house localities, and the sales process. We enjoyed working with John and we valued his wisdom and guidance throughout the process.

John's expertise in the housing market is unparalleled. He foresaw the immense potential of the property before we did and generously shared his knowledge with us. Collaborating with John to finalize our offer was a stress-free experience. Whenever we had questions or concerns, he promptly communicated with the vendors, providing us with immediate updates. John was consistently accommodating to our requests regarding the property and the vendors.

I have found John and his team to be very professional in their service. They have been very prompt and friendly in all their dealings with us. I would not hesitate in recommending John to anyone looking to buy a home.
