A roller coaster journey with a successful outcome

Martin & Penelope have made what could have been an incredibly stressful experience so much easier. They have both been incredibly helpful and always ready to help with navigating what has been a journey with unforeseen bumps along the way. Not every real estate sale and purchase is smooth sailing and we are so grateful that Team Good were there for us. Both are so easy to talk to and always had genuine, honest advice when needed. Look no further than Team Good!!!

Friendly, genuine and knowledgeable

I couldn't have asked for better real estate representation. From the very beginning, Martin & Penny were friendly, genuine, and always willing to help. They took the time to listen, answered every question with confidence and patience, and no question ever felt like too much trouble. Their knowledge, flexibility, and caring made the whole selling process so much easier. I am so grateful for everything they did. I would recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy and professional real estate agent.

House Sale Number 2

House Sale Number 2

This is another well-deserved review following the sale of my second home with Martin and Penelope this year. I cannot recommend them highly enough. My first property sold in just 18 days and my second in 67 days—both impressive results in the current market and a testament to the hard work, dedication, and expertise they bring to every sale. Their communication, professionalism, and commitment throughout both campaigns were exceptional. They made the entire process easy to navigate, kept me informed every step of the way, and consistently delivered outstanding results. Thank you again for all your hard work. It has been a pleasure working with you both.

Amazing Team Work from The Goods

Amazing Team Work from The Goods

Martin and Penelope (AKA The Goods) first stood out to me when I attended one of their open homes. They were engaging, proactive, and took the time to ensure my daughter and I fully understood all the features of the property. That level of care and attention left a lasting impression—and ultimately led to us choosing them to sell not just one, but two of our homes. Having never sold a property in New Zealand before, I couldn’t have asked for better guidance. They explained the entire process clearly from start to finish, and their in-depth knowledge of the Taradale market meant I always felt informed, supported, and confident in every decision. What really set them apart was their communication. In a market that isn’t always straightforward, they worked efficiently and delivered results quickly, all while keeping me consistently updated. The detailed feedback after viewings was invaluable—it gave me real insight into buyer interest and allowed me to move forward with purchasing my next property with confidence. Most importantly, they genuinely listened. Martin and Penelope went above and beyond to respect my specific wishes around open homes and viewings, and both they and their Harcourts team handled everything with professionalism, care, and flexibility. I’m incredibly grateful for the way they managed the entire process—smooth, efficient, and stress-free. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to anyone looking for agents who are not only knowledgeable and hardworking, but who truly go the extra mile to get the job done. Thank you both for an amazing first home sale.

Professional, knowledgeable, Amazing experience!

What started as a friendly conversation at an open home in September, turned into a life changing journey. Martin and Penelope provided outstanding service from the very beginning and guided us through every step of selling our property with professionalism, care, and genuine commitment. Their communication throughout the entire process was clear, honest and consistent, which gave us confidence. When it came to negotiation, Martin went above and beyond to secured a solid price for our property. We always felt listened to, supported and represented. What made the experience even more remarkable was that they didn’t just help us sell our home—they also found our next property for our family. We are grateful to Martin and Penelope for making what could have been a stressful process feel seamless. We can’t recommend them highly enough to anyone looking for exceptional service, genuine care, and great results.

Honest Sincere & Transparent.

Through the course of our sale, we suffered the loss of our mother and the terminal diagnosis of our father, the occupants of the house. Living out of the city, navigating the sale has been one of the toughest times in our lives. Martin went above and beyond in not only communicating the sale with the vendor, he also played a huge role in ensuring our father’s health and well being was catered to in an incredibly difficult and stressful environment. I found Martin’s communication to be truly sincere and honest. A rare trait amongst real estate agents. Myself and the rest of the family would like to sincerely thank Martin for everything he’s done while steering us through a turbulent and uncertain real estate market.
