Karl was super on to it. He communicated regularly and kept us informed of the process. His expertise, honesty and clear communication made us feel supported and comfortable at every step along the journey. We would definitely recommend anyone buying or selling in the area to contact Karl.

We recently purchased a new home marketed by Karl. We have been very impressed by his professionalism throughout the process. Any questions we had were answered honestly, if he didn't know the answer, he went away and found out and came back to us very promptly. At the auction, he organised support for us to make the whole process very smooth. We can certainly recommend him.

We had the pleasure of working with Karl over the period from when we first approached Eves with the view to them acting for us for the sale of our house until it was sold at Auction. Karl was involved in the marketing process, the Open Homes and negotiating the price and the whole Auction process. From start to finish he explained the process and explained our options clearly and concisely. Karl treated us with the utmost respect, meeting all our requests without us feeling any pressure. Quite simply Karl made the experience of selling our house stress free and enjoyable.

Karl guided us through buying our first home. He was very informative, easy to reach and willing to assist in anyway possible. From a buyers perspective, it was refreshing to have an agent who worked towards a good result for both parties. We are absolutely stoked with our buy and would recommend him wholeheartedly.

Karl was easy to deal with, answered questions quickly, got everything sorted with my lawyer. Happy with the outcome

Karl was amazing to work with to sell our house. We had home staging to be done lawns to sort, inspections and of course Covid lockdowns all with us the owners living 1600km away in the south island. He made this happen with a smile on his face and no stress in our direction. I cannot rate him any higher, and have recommended him to friends and family

Trust worthy , reliable and always communicates exactly how we would like . 2nd property Karl has been involved with and we will use him again .

Karl Leathley sold our Whangarei property at 2/17 Princess Street for us earlier this year. He proved an excellent choice. At all stages of the process he was accessible, helpful and professional. The ideas he contributed were practical, and he did his very best to action our wishes. He worked hard at open homes, and always reviewed them with us in a timely manner. The final price he got for us was a very good one. He was a pleasure to work with and we have no hesitation in recommending him to others.

Karl was exceptional throughout the whole process. He consistently went out of his way to help and work with us. He has continued to be supportive post sale. We really appreciate all the help he has given us and would recommend Karl to everyone.

We found Karl professional and friendly to deal with, Our house was sold with a multiple offer situation after only a few open homes

Using his knowledge of the industry and the current local market, Karl is fair to both parties, helping both to make informed decisions. I found Karl to be a great communicator, passionate about his work, and is dedicated to getting the job done. He worked with me to set a realistic expectation, listening and advising where appropriate. He also worked well with the conveyancing team, the rental agent, the tenant and other parties to help make the sale proceed as painlessly as possible. I would definitely work with Karl again.

Reference for real estate Karl Leathely Karl was a pleasant person to communicate with. Yet we encountered a few problems along the way. Making a pre-auction offer to secure the property, we got our wires crossed several times as we stipulated that this offer was only valid if the auction ahead would be canceled. Karl continued to tell the seller that he could accept our offer and still go to auction. In other words have your cake and eat it. This caused confusion on both sides. We cannot see this as an option in a pre-auction offer in any case. It contradicts the intentions of such an offer. We were also told by Karl that the weekly rent of the existing tenant, whom we would take over buying the property as an investment, was $480. Only when taking possession of the property found we out, that the rental payment was only $440 wich led to a shortfall in our calculations of repayments of our mortgage. This are lapses that are hard to stomach. Karl was perseverant in his efforts to communicate yet as mentioned there were some major misunderstandings.
