Patience of a Saint

Patience of a Saint

We first met Max John at an open home he was holding for another colleague. We were possibly only window shopping at the time but he projected a warming professional attitude and was very comfortable to talk with. Months later when we thought it was time to sell my house, we had kept Max John in mind and thought he would be a good option to sell with. Great choice actually. We weren’t ready to sell as it seemed. Max John steered us in the right direction though. With good advice and recommendations, we finally got it ready for sale. 9 months passed from our original meeting on selling the house, no pressure, just advice and support. There was one more hurdle to overcome. We had bought a new home in that time. With the old home void of any furnishings, Max John stepped up to the plate. Max John devised a sale plan, staged the house for us and put it to market on a deadline sale. The house looked great. Through Max John’s efforts and support, we achieved a very successful sale. A huge thank you from us both. Scott and Fran

Best property manager in town

Best property manager in town

My dream was to buy a house in this vicinity; Max made it possible. I never thought my dream would come true. Max made sure all the boxes were ticked. He was always available to answer any question I had. Max is simply the best property manager I've known until now. He knows his work. Not only he has helped us with property related questions, his amazing knowledge and expertise also helped us with the move and other related jobs.

Clear communication and exceeded our expectations

Clear communication and exceeded our expectations

Max was outstanding in finding a property that meet all our requirements. After showing us the property via video call we trusted Max to make a conditional offer before we viewed the property ourselves. This whole process allowed us to then travel to view the property with the knowledge that our offer had been accepted and the only condition was the property being suitable. The property was exactly as Max explained to us. A very easy process with Max's guidance.

Well organised sale of 22/14 Wharenui Road

Max was very helpful with our sale. He was able to answer any questions that we had in a very clear and professional manner. We were given all the details we needed to make a well informed choice of the best way to sell our property. Nothing was a problem.
