In a difficult market and with a mid-century house Mary certainly drew a large audience to the property. The photography projected the full architectural values of the home. Mary was exceedingly efficient and communication was easy throughout including the final sale and negotiations. She worked in well with other agents to secure a successful contract.
We were referred to Jenny Fowler by our previous agent Deb Harvey from Harcourts Gold Papanui who is now retired. We can now appreciate why Deb referred us Jenny and the Harcourts Team. Jenny's support not only with the sale of our property, but also her assistance with our our purchase in Christchurch, has just been excellent. The professionalisim and support of the whole Harcourts Gold team has just been outstanding and very much appreciated.
Mary was recommended to us as someone who will always act in the vendors best interest, and this certainly was the case. We found her very professional, hard working and honest with a relaxed down to earth approach and communication style. She made sure the marketing material was of a high standard, and with plenty of open homes no stone was unturned in terms of maximising the exposure of the property on the market. She helped us source all the other people needed to get the property ready to sell. She ensured any serious issues were resolved so that come auction day, we had the best opportunity to sell at the optimum price. She was always a pleasure to deal with and we recommend her highly!
Mary showed us why she is so well rated in the real estate world. The marketing plans that she put in place, for our property, certainly delivered the desired results. Her confidence was supported by a strong team. Mary delivered a professional service built on strong communication, excellent follow up, and her friendly manner.
Mary was professional, diligent and went over and beyond my expectations. She has a high level of detail, attends to all of the small things - that actually make a difference when a home is being marketed. Mary pushed and encouraged us to spend a little on presentation (gardens, painting, staging) all of which delivered value in the end. On auction day she and her team had our best interests at heart. We set stretchy goals for price and reserves and they worked hard to deliver them. Mary has outstanding local knowledge and a good antenna for ensuring the information she is collecting is correct and accurate. I would highly recommend her.
Mary knows the Christchurch market and puts in the hours needed to sell your home. We found Mary professional, approachable and very knowledgeable and have no hesitation in recommending both her and the Harcourts team she is part of. Mary’s advice is sound and she will put in many hours of open homes if needed to get buyers through the door.
Persistent and dedicated, Mary and her team contributed effort, expertise and local knowledge in what, at the time, was a challenging market.
We are so very grateful to Mary for all that she has done for us. Home ownership was only a dream for us but with Mary's expertise and knowledge, not only did she find us a home but she found us a new home. A dream come true! Thank you Mary, we will always be grateful for all the hard work and professionalism that you always showed.
I recently had the pleasure of working with Mary Turnbull from Harcourts Gold, and I cannot recommend her highly enough. From the moment I met her, I was impressed by her professionalism, knowledge of the local real estate market, and her willingness to listen to my needs and preferences. Throughout the selling process, Mary was always responsive and kept us informed every step of the way. She was patient and took the time to answer all my questions, which made us feel comfortable and confident in our decisions. What I appreciated most about working with Mary was her attention to detail and her ability to make the entire process as smooth and stress-free as possible. She went above and beyond what was expected of her to ensure the property was presented at its best. Overall, I cannot speak highly enough of Mary. She is an exceptional real estate agent who truly cares about her clients and goes above and beyond to ensure their satisfaction.
Having placed an offer for a property on a home listed with Mary, I also listed my own property to sell through her, in order to streamline the process. This proved a good decision as Mary, and her team, ensured that both contracts run seamlessly together in terms of conditions etc. Mary’s professionalism and market knowledge is substantial however it is her business acumen, and that of her team members, that enable one to respect the process. There is one focus when it comes to her team listing your property for sale and that is that it sells. And it did, within three weeks of a so-called down-market. So, I would highly recommend Mary and her team. Thanks Mary, Jenny and Cindy.
Mary was a great help with our sale providing clear advice on all manner of preparatory details (including interior decorating). She was very accessible for our innumerable questions and it was a great comfort to us having her as a trusted advisor.
