Very experienced well rounded & supportive real estate agent

Very experienced well rounded & supportive real estate agent

Karl knows his market here in Rotorua with a solid pre-marketing appraisal and summary of expectations going forward, especially with the project we asked him to market & sell. Getting a contract in place at the listed asking price and also having a "back-up" offer whilst continuing to field inquires speaks well for his knowledge and market experience. Karl also stepped forward assisting with a tenancy issue at changeover to ensure all went as agreed and planned with a successful conclusion being achieved for all those directly involved.

Very good outcome.

Very good outcome.

The property was 2 dwellings (both rentals) on one title and one of those houses was over 100 yrs old and in need of maintenance. 30 years of ownership and time to let them go. Karl recommended the auction process, and I must admit I was a little doubtful. Karl commented that the residential market was depressed, but there was a limited amount of investor activity. After 4 weeks of marketing, we had 5 active bidders either on phone or in the room. The opening bid had me cringe and was way way below the reserve price. Ultimately sold just above the reserve, under the hammer, after 38 bids (none from the auctioneer on the vendors behalf) with one very happy vendor. Thanks for all the guidance Karl. And also thanks to your colleagues and auctioneer. Excellent recommendation and feedback through the whole process.

Karl cares!

Karl was instrumental in getting our purchase over the line. He is an incredible communicator both in terms of providing information and general and timely updates. He wasn't pushy or rude like so many in the industry. We would buy or sell with Karl again in a heartbeat.

Karl was excellent at his job, kind and knowledgeable.

We loved the house when Karl took us to view the property. We also asked after the awful storms to view to see if any rain had entered the building. Karl was happy with our request, he was very patient and kind. There was never any pressure from Karl to purchase.

We've just sold a property with Karl - our third time working with him. Our first time was as a buyer, the second time as a vendor and we were so happy with his communication & work on both of those occasions we couldn't think of any better to help us the third time around! He's so lovely and keeps you fully looped in every step of the way - so helpful when navigating a property sale or purchase. He really is such a safe pair of hands, and always delivers great results. If you're considering working with Karl, don't think twice - he's a great guy, and fantastic at what he does. Thank you so much Karl, we appreciate you!

Smooth Purchase Thanks to Karl!

We recently purchased a property through Karl Hereford and had a fantastic experience from start to finish. Karl was professional, knowledgeable, and always quick to respond to our questions—no matter how big or small. As we were buying from out of town, he made the process smooth and stress-free, keeping us well-informed every step of the way. His honest, straightforward approach gave us a lot of confidence, and we really appreciated how approachable and down-to-earth he was throughout. Highly recommend Karl if you're looking for a reliable and experienced real estate agent in the area!

Dedicated and Professional Agent Who Worked Tirelessly in a Tough Market

Dedicated and Professional Agent Who Worked Tirelessly in a Tough Market

Although the market was tough, we are incredibly grateful to have had Karl as our real estate agent throughout the process of selling our home. Despite the challenging conditions, Karl’s professionalism, expertise, and commitment never wavered. From the very beginning, Karl gave us clear guidance on how to position our home in a slow market, offering insightful advice on pricing, staging, and marketing. His communication was always prompt, and he kept us well-informed every step of the way. He worked tirelessly to find the right buyers and was relentless in his efforts to negotiate the best possible deal for us. While the outcome wasn’t exactly what we had hoped for due to the market conditions, we truly believe that without Karl’s expertise and dedication, things could have been much more difficult. We would absolutely recommend Karl to anyone looking for an agent who works hard and stays positive, no matter the circumstances.

Knowledgeable, but fair and very helpful

As first home buyers, Karl was very helpful throughout the whole process. Where some people may have taken advantage of the situation, we felt that Karl was being as open and transparent, as much as he could be, with us. He was very helpful in explaining things and next steps thoroughly to us and was great and communicating with us throughout the whole process
