Buying a property is a huge undertaking, especially when you don't really know all the ins and outs and understand the legal jargon. Lauren was so professional, took the time to explain the steps we had to take and the reasons why. Made buying the property so much easier and relaxing. We really loved Laurens sense of humor, her lovely friendly smile and her knowledge of the business. We did not know Lauren prior to the purchase but now feel she is more like a friend. I would highly recommend Lauren to anyone that's considering purchasing a property, you will be in good hands.

After missing out on several houses we found an agent, Lauren, that was understanding of our need to find a suitable home to allow us to move down from Rotorua to Blenheim to help look after our aging father. Lauren was very much on our side, she knew our primary needs and she worked hard to find for us. We would highly recommend Lauren as agent in this area, she is great to work with and we thank her greatly.

We will be recommending Lauren to everyone we meet! The first house she showed us was our perfect home. She was more than an estate agent! We were first time buyers in NZ and she gave us advice, support and showed us around all types of houses with the patience of a saint, so that we knew we were making the right decision. We saw over 20 houses with different Agents but kept coming back to Lauren because she was so genuine, kind, understanding and we trusted her knowledge and understanding of our needs and the area. We can’t rate Lauren highly enough and will always come back to her for properties in the future. Thank you Lauren you made everything so much easier at a very stressful time!

As repeat clients of Lauren … we cannot fault her professionalism, honesty and humour … she always goes above and beyond our expectations …. Thankyou again Lauren Cheers SPK :)

"I would highly recommend Lauren Palachie of the Harcourts Blenheim team if you are thinking of selling your property. She made my experience enjoyable by being very helpful every step of the way. Although she is professional and courteous she is also able to relax by sharing a joke and having a laugh with you while still being able to offer friendly help and making the whole journey enjoyable. Thanks for your help Lauren and I am confident in recommending you to others for a job well done."

The most that impressed me about the service I received was how patient Lauren was with me right throughout this process. Not once did I feel pressured or harassed whenever I would view properties with her and she took the time to understand my personal situation and worked on what I wanted first and foremost. Lauren certainly would send me other options but she knew what I was after and worked to ensure I was kept in the loop on listings that would fit my needs even when they were not her listings. Right throughout my journey I was treated with respect by Lauren.

Agents were easy to work with and worked hard to secure a sale for us and a property for the buyer of our home.

“Lauren is a top notch sales agent. A pleasure to deal with and always on hand to answer questions anytime.”

As a family of 8 siblings, most of whom live away from Blenheim, selling the family home of 40 years following the passing of our parents was always going be a difficult task. Lauren was great to deal with, going above and beyond at times to ensure a smooth sales process. She worked easily with us providing regular feedback, suggestions and sound advice based on her knowledge of the local market. We were thrilled to receive multiple offers resulting in the sale. Lauren impressed us with her empathetic and professional manner, and the great result achieved for the family.

Lauren was great to deal with. Honest. Upfront with things. I liked that I only dealt with her not a PA. She listened to what I wanted. Craig was great too with the offers and explaining it all to me”

We received wonderful service from Lauren to help us find our family home in Blenheim. Lauren took the time to fully understand the key features that we were looking for. She was professional and friendly with excellent communication. We would highly recommend Lauren as an agent.

Very professional service from Lauren Palatchie who tidied up a mess from another real estate company and got the deal done in a very short time frame despite a level four lockdown imposing restrictions on everything. Excellent customer service from Harcourts all round. Lauren is friendly, professional and thorough, paying attention to detail all the way through. She is an excellent communicator and a credit to the Harcourts team. I would happily go through the real estate process with Lauren again and recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell a property.
