We met Karen Prendergast at an open home and were so impressed with her that when it came time to list our house , we chose her Karen was professional through the entire process , she kept us updated and well informed at all times . We had a long period for the house to go unconditional and she managed all parties extremely well . We are very happy that we chose Karen and UP and can highly recommend her .
She may answer to "Karen", but she is definitely not "A Karen"! Karen demonstrated ultimate patience and in-depth knowledge of the Real Estate business in guiding us to the successful completion of our bid to acquire our own bit of Auckland. Our offer was made with conditions on obtaining finance and selling our house in Christchurch, with a very late settlement date by Auckland standards. Karen very professionally put our case to the vendors, convincing them to "buy" us as earnestly as we were trying to buy their house. Postponements of dates for satisfying conditions and changes to the deposit and settlement date were cheerily received and managed, and we felt at all times that she was as much protecting our interests as that of her vendors. Thanks again, Karen for helping a trio of displaced Cantabrians become proper Aucklanders.
I entered my house selling journey with total ignorance and fear of not selling, but Karen every time I had a premature meltdown Karen just calmed me and kept me on focus with her unrelenting drive to deliver to me as the client what I felt I needed, this made my house selling experience amazing joyful and knowledgeable, just perfect. Thank you Karen, you changed my life I will always be so grateful.
Karen's mix of professionalism, warmth and energy has been deeply appreciated by us both. She has an expert understanding of the property market. Working alongside UP's marketing team we were delighted with how our property was presented. Karen's keen eye for detail was integral to the success of the campaign from beginning to end. She also gave us invaluable advice in the purchase of our new home. We are so grateful for the all work she has done on our behalf and would recommend her without hesitation.
Karen was professional, knowledgeable and proactive throughout our challenging campaign. She went the extra mile engaging with all potential buyers and was able to secure a sale for us despite a challenging market.
This is our 3rd property where Karen has been our real estate agent. I couldn't recommend her more highly, and will definitely be using her services again. She is knowledgable, and caring, and a great sales person. Thanks again Karen!

We bough the property with Karen as the agent and she was great at communicating every details we required and provided a comprehensive detailed pack about everything we needed. She is top notch and really helped us with what we needed.
Karen went over and above to market our house and to get us a good result. Right from the get go she had great ideas, excellent communication, and amazing preparation to help us get that ‘cut through’ to our potential buyers. She diligently followed up with the interested groups, and regularly kept us in the loop with how things were progressing. Always honest, caring, cheerful, helpful, and professional! We’d definitely recommend Karen to any new vendors on the lookout for a quality agent.
Karen knows the local housing market and was able to assess my needs quickly and present me with a number of options to consider. I was grateful I used Karen and purchased the fourth property I viewed. Karen was a pleasure to deal with and assisted me through the purchase of my new house. She is clear and transparent in her communication and was responsive to my needs. I would highly recommend you consider Karen if you are looking to sell or buy a property - 5 stars
Karen is an absolutely amazing real estate agent. She's very patient and supportive through the big decisions, the significant transitional process, managing to bring a steadiness to it with a discerning appreciation of the good things and attention to detail. She's terrifically knowledgeable and truthful and I'm very thankful for all her help. Lesley - (Vendor)
