Karen has been a saviour for us, our property was very rural and a few complexities that made the sale very very difficult and lengthy whilst dealing with property access. Honest, reliable and quick to communicate issues or concerns, I highly recommend Karen and hope her all the successes, our sale inspite of an unsteady market with a global crisis managed to get across the line , I will never be able to express in words what this means to us.

This was not a straightforward sale, with hiccups along the way, but Karyn worked steadfastly through to the end. She willingly facilitated multiple trips to the property to enable quotes and investigate possibilities, and also forwarded enquiries to the vendor to help inform decisions. Karyn has a practical down to earth approach to her work.

I went through Karyn to purchase my first property in New Zealand. She is a very approachable and kind agent that you really feel a personal connection with. Any questions I had were answered swiftly and the whole purchase went swiftly. Great agent and not just about grabbing your money and going ghost like a lot of agents out there. Highly recommend and will go through Karyn with any future purchases or sales if property. Thanks!

Really good communication and helpful with out of the ordinary requests. Would happily buy a house that she was selling again.

New to this rural area we found Karyn very helpful, working with us arranging to be at the property for service appointments when we couldn't. She also gave us local information about Dr's, Rubbish collection, Recycling etc.

Karen was helpful and has a good understanding of where the market is at - got a great result in reasonable time.

Karyn was very easy to deal with and very accommodating. She answered all questions in a timely manner and was willing to arrange property inspections to suit our availability.

Karyn sold our property when others failed. The sale was done in a difficult market with values falling. I appreciate an agent with a sense of humour and the energy to get results.

We decided to go with Karyn because it felt like a good fit, she was energetic and had good local market knowledge. It was important for us to choose an agent whom we connected to and felt would make a good impression on potential buyers, which we feel she did. The part that was not completely satisfying was communication - we would have liked prompt feedback on open homes and a little more transparency in regards to what is going on with on-going marketing, buyers, and the final stages of the sale. This may have been a unique situation as sometimes candid conversations happened in town which led to some confusion between us. Though after this review, she realises this and has been professional in every other respect.

Coming from out of town meant I needed flexibility for viewing times, etc....Karyn was always able to accommodate my requests and always made things easy! It was a pleasure dealing with Karyn!

We really enjoyed working with Karyn, she was polite and helpful from the moment I first enquired about the property we were interested in, was helpful and knowledgeable during the process and was always contactable to answer our questions promptly which is a quality in an agent that is so important, but also rare! I can’t fault anything about our experience with Karyn.

First sent 28 March to your fnkaipara email - With hindsight, putting our property on the market early in 2020 at the onset of Covid-19, was probably a classic example of mis-timing. There was uncertainty about job security, bank lending and house prices and we were all swept up by those conditions. Throughout this period of time you were certain that a favourable conclusion could be obtained and we acknowledge your on-going positivity, and keeping our spirits up. It was our ability to access you and ask questions, to tap into your broad, local knowledge and experience, that we appreciated the most. With thanks David B
