Mark Edmonds

Mark was always our first choice real estate agent. We have bought and sold through Mark and the results were always spot on. We highly recommend Mark and his lovely assistant (Sue) to anyone looking to buy, invest or sell. He knows his stuff!

A quick note to let the Barfoots team know how satisfied I am with the efforts afforded me by Mark Edmonds. I am a Trustee that was entrusted with selling 2 properties, and due to beneficiary pressure, I elected to have Harcourts sell property #1. However, this turned out to be a scenario whereby the salespeople at Harcourts assumed that as this was a deceased estate, and I was a newly appointed executor and Trustee that there was no passion or respect to achieve the best possible price. As a result, potential purchasers were of the belief they would be getting this place for a steal, which was certainly not my intention. The end result was a shared sale whereby Ray White sold the place at a price of 200K higher than the Harcourts 4 or 5 buyers best offer at auction. Needless to say, I did not go ‘on the market’ for these lowball offers upon the sales team pressure and also from the auctioneer. At the end of the day, it was a sad 6-month expensive sale. And when it was time to sell property #2 and despite beneficiary objections, I came to Barfoots. You guys were the people that my deceased family always used and it was my duty to honour same and even more so after the Harcourts debacle. So. Back to Mark Edmonds. I have known this guy before I left NZ for Australia and now Thailand. I knew he was based in Mission Bay and of course, possibly not the best candidate to sell a property in Mangere. Nonetheless, my instruction to him was to be my manager of the sale. The trust I have in this guy is immense.....I left my trust with Mark, and he came through. Many times late at night due to our time zone difference, we would be working together to achieve a successful sale. Without this guy, I would never have had the updates and/or understood what the salesman was doing (or why)....thank you Mark Edmonds. A man that did not fail my trust and faith in his abilities and experience.

Mark made the entire process as easy as possible for me. His incredible depth and breadth of knowledge was invaluable, he always communicated early, often and with exactly the right amount of detail. Highly professional, lovely to work with, and I would highly recommend him to anyone.

Mark has a wealth of knowledge and communicates promptly to advise of new listings so that will suit your needs. He is astute and only recommends properties that are appropriate, within financial reach and have that special factor which help with an easy resale and improved investment results when it comes time to selling. Mark accompanied me to auctions and if I was unsuccessful at the auction, he always had a feel good story and knew that something better was around the corner. And it was. He met me at many open homes so that we could discuss the pros and cons of purchasing without the stress of guess work. I knew I could trust his guidance. Mark was fabulous to work with and he is my preferred agent for buying or selling in the future.
