I met Julie Kelman-Poto a few months go. I had contacted a Vetting Company to find me the best Harcourts Real Estate in Auckland City. The Vetting Company Recommended Julie Kelman-Poto. Julie took me to many houses For Sale when we met Other Land Agents at the Open Homes we called on Julie’s Communication was very Professional. I kept turning down homes I was shown. Julie was very patient with me and assured me she was interested in helping me find the right home would want to buy.

We can’t thank Sarah and Julie enough for all their hard work selling our house for us. They took all the stress out of the process, nothing was ever too much trouble for them and we had a lot of fun along the way! This is the second property of ours they have sold, we wouldn’t use anyone else!

We had a great experience with Sarah, Julie and Winnie. They were very easy to deal with, friendly and quick to come back to us with any queries. The whole process was very smooth.

Selling multiple properties at the same time

Selling multiple properties at the same time

We were downsizing our rental portfolio in anticipation of retirement and moving out of Auckland and knew the only agents to manage our multiple listings, and give excellent service during such a hectic period, were Sarah & JK. Co-ordinating open homes, multiple buyers, individual marketing campaigns, multi-offers, auctions and negotiations, Sarah & JK managed everything with ease and diplomacy. We were very confident in their professional advice and very happy with all the results.

As an investor I am looking for certain key criteria when buying property. Sarah and Julie understand this and know my requirements so only offer me properties that meet my needs as to rental return, capital growth and development / renovation potential. They are adept at negotiating with the seller and ensuring the process is handled efficiently in a friendly yet business-like manner. When selling I always use Sarah and JK no matter in which area of Auckland the property is located. Their advice as to best method of sale, pricing strategy, and marketing approach for the current market conditions is unmatched. Their willingness to assist with the detail and eye for interior design appropriate for the particular house is extremely useful with maximising the staging presentation. Their willingness to be ‘hands-on’ with the property and in quickly dealing with any issues is very useful to me as I have a number of projects running concurrently and am often away travelling. I can confidently leave my properties in their capable hands knowing that they will achieve the best result possible. I can not recommend Sarah & Julie highly enough!

Extra travel no problem for superstar agents

Despite being outside their normal selling area, I wanted my best agents involved in the sale of 96 Calliope, a 3-flat property. Sarah and JK undertook this “across the bridge” sale and also liaised with the tenants to allow buyers to view the property, and managed to achieve a successful sale. Again I have no hesitation in recommending Sarah & JK to anyone selling either their family home or an investment property.

Pre-sale renovations increased sale price

Pre-sale renovations increased sale price

12 Richbourne is an old villa in 2 flats and had been tenanted for some years. When the time came to sell it needed work to be well presented. Sarah & JK were fantastic in assisting with organizing tradespeople and even did some of the work themselves! I have no question that, with their help, I achieved a much better sale price. I have no hesitation in recommending Sarah & JK to anyone buying or selling a property!

23A Hepburn Street was a unique property with some challenges from neighbors during the sale process. Sarah & JK escalated these concerns and arranged advice and investigation to confirm with council that all consents had been obtained thus placating the neighbors and allowing an unimpeded sale. I have no hesitation in recommending Sarah & JK to anyone buying or selling a property!

Much-loved home happily passed on to new owners

Much-loved home happily passed on to new owners

Our home in Sackville Street was much-loved and extensively renovated so it was a wrench to part with it. However retirement up north beckoned and Sarah & JK made the process of selling our lovely home an easier process than we anticipated. There were some challenges with neighbors during the sale process and this is where the knowledge, experience and diplomacy of Julie and Sarah was invaluable. I have no hesitation in recommending Sarah & JK to anyone buying or selling a property!

Eclectic villa in Grey Lynn

I have had the pleasure of working with Sarah & JK on the sale of a number of investment properties over an 8 year period. During this time, Sarah & JK have approached the sale of each property with a fresh perspective both in marketing and presentation. As I wasn’t living close by I had to rely on their assistance in many areas - they went above and beyond my expectations and helped me achieve both the best price and a clean sale in every instance. I have no hesitation in recommending Sarah & JK to anyone buying or selling a property!

Yes, you can do business with family. Successfully!

First, full disclosure - I am related to Sarah, and initially when I spoke to her about getting some general advice on marketing out home, I was upfront about my hesitation in 'doing business' with family. Anyway, they graciously agreed to coming over for an informal chat, and well, the rest is history! :-) Sarah & Julie did an absolutely outstanding job in marketing and selling our property. They are a formidable team - Sarah's marketing skills mesh perfectly with Julie's data and market-analysis expertise. They also provided exceptional advice on preparing the house for sale, with in-depth suggestions on simple and cost-effective improvements we could make to enhance salability - from paint colour schemes and interior decoration to garden plantings. All in all it was a fabulous experience and has changed my view of doing business with family! Highly recommended.

Really appreciated working with Julie and Sarah to sell my apartment. They were really good at setting expectations up front in what was a challenging market and I appreciated their experience in home staging to really showcase the apartment to the max. Really appreciated Julie’s in-depth knowledge around the ins and outs of the sale process. Especially valuable for me as a first time seller with lots of questions.
