Goes beyond the norm to get your house sold!

Goes beyond the norm to get your house sold!

Mel truly goes the extra mile to achieve the best possible outcome for you. Her advice is always practical and transparent, with no hidden agenda. She communicates exceptionally well, keeping me informed at every stage of the process. Whenever I called or messaged, she responded promptly, and I always felt confident that everything was being handled efficiently. Mel also goes above and beyond by helping present your home at its best — even taking care of details like lawns and general presentation. Her knowledge of the market is outstanding. I would absolutely use her again and highly recommend her to anyone considering selling their property.

Excellent realtor

Excellent realtor

Mel was a proactive and engaged realtor. She worked with her colleagues to successfully sell our mother's house. Mel communicated with our whānau in a positive and approachable manner. She was organised and efficient. Mel continued her involvement till the sale reached final settlement. As a whānau we would endorse Mel as an excellent realtor,even in a difficult market. As she says on her billboard 'sell with Mel'.

Mel got the job Done.

Mel got the job Done.

We found Mel very knowledgeable through out the whole process. A fee price drops and challenges along the way. She asked us to trust her with the purchaser she had lined up and assured us she would make it happen and get enough $$$ for us to purchase our dream home through Property Brokers. It was touch and go and we had no time to waste, but Mel managed to get the Sale done in perfect timing to secure our forever home. Thanks again Mel!

Clear, precise and home was beautifully presented.

Mel has an easy non confronting personality which allowed good open conversation which worked well for the preparation and marketing of our home. Her knowledge and guidance reduced a lot of anxiety out of the process.
