Matt Hourigan together with Duncan Povey were top notch.

Matt Hourigan together with Duncan Povey were top notch.

Matt lived right up to his motto, leaving no stone unturned in the sale of our property (and purchase of our replacement). He went the extra mile to understand our requirements, is honest, and an excellent communicator. He worked in tandem with Duncan Povey who was similarly skilled, worked tirelessly and complemented Matt's skills. Both had a very good grip on the shifting market.

Always available!

Always available!

Matt has been awesome throughout this stressful process. He was always available via texts and calls even after office hours. If he didn't have answers right there and then, he diligently came back to us with one. Very friendly and gave the experience a personal touch. He explained the auction and pre-auction offer processes well, but it's one of those things you have to go through to really have a few for it. Would recommend going to auctions just to get to know the process. Thanks Matt!

A beautiful home

Matt was the listing agent for the beautiful home we bought. He helped answer questions about the property, connect us with the vendors and provided support on auction day.

Enjoyed working with Matt

Matt is hard working and straight up. He gives good advice and has sound knowledge of the market. Matt sold us the property on Waterloo Rd and we liked working with him so we hired him to sell our house - which he did 😊

Highly motivated and dedicated

Highly motivated and dedicated

Matt was a fantastic agent for us, but we knew this would be the case after purchasing another home through Bayleys and having worked with him as the buyer in that particular transaction. We knew that if Matt could devote the same level of attention, patience and perseverance to selling our home we would get the result we needed and that the purchaser would feel well looked after in the process. Matt did not disappoint, he was with us every step of the way, offering guidance on marketing strategy, clear communication about the process and planning and after only 3 weeks on the market in less than straight forward market conditions we were pleased to find ourselves with a swift and painless sale at auction. I would highly recommend Matt to anyone looking for a true partner and advocate for their property.

Matt and Lilli were very professional and easy to work with. Their communication, motivation and Matts enthusiasm was a pleasure. I especially appreciated them organising all the necessary reports etc that were needed as I live out of town. Would Highly recommend Matt and Bayleys

Results focused and motivated

After an earlier unsuccessful campaign with another Agent, we were sceptical about whether Matt would be successful in securing a sale for us. From the get go Matt was enthusiastic and motivated, and, clear about who our target market was. He communicated throughout the campaign and we are happy that he managed to achieve a good result. We highly recommend Matt to other vendors!

Matt showed excellent knowledge, communication, as well as professionalism

We have bought houses in three other countries as well as in New Zealand. When comparing Matt with the other Realtors both in NZ and overseas he comes out well above the others in his communication and willingness to listen to our needs. He did not try to pressure us to buy (as others have) but gave us plenty of information so that we could make up our own minds. He made himself available at all hours of the day and night to answer our queries and enabled us to have as many viewings of the property we were considering, as we needed. All in all, we would highly recommend him to others when both buying and selling a property as we could not fault his professionalism.

From the first time we met Matt he was exceedingly enthusiastic about trying to help us sell our property. He showed empathy and understanding for our concerns and filled us with confidence about his abilities and knowledge. He discussed which process he considered was the best for our situation and explained in detail the reasons for his decisions. He guided us through the process of the auction with ability and confidence. In the end we achieved a much better than expected outcome. We thank him most sincerely for his time and availability.
