Mel is a pleasure to deal with, an excellent communicator always got back to me promptly with the answer to any questions we had for her. She is very knowledgeable on Real Estate around Mt Maunganui and acts in a very professional manner. I would recommend her to any one thinking of purchasing property at the Mount .
We interviewed a number of agents when putting our house on the market and Mel was a standout. She genuinely loved our house as much as we did and her enthusiasm and drive to find the right buyers in a difficult market using the full range of tools at her disposal was exceptional. Mel never changed course and her confidence and persistence got us a great result.
Mel is charismatic and personable, and has been a pleasure to work with! She's very organised and responds quickly to queries, making the process a lot less stressful as first home buyers - it's a lot less daunting having an agent that is relatable and friendly.
Mel has been excellent to work with. Flexible to our needs and always available. Will use her to sell our next property in 2024.
Mel was very helpful with any questions I had or visibility to the property. Mel communicated in a way that was most efficient for me with my busy life commitments - so it was mainly via txt, but always available via phone or email if I needed her. Thanks for making my new purchase a pleasant experience.
really enjoyed working with mel, she was very efficient and good at communicating with us throughout the campaign and keeping us informed.
We cannot recommend Mel highly enough. Throughout the sale process she was professional, efficient, communicated clearly at every step, and told us exactly what we needed to know and nothing we didn't. We felt that we could trust Mel implicitly with what is a very personal transition in life, and are incredibly grateful to her, and Annette, for their support and advice along the way.
Mel was great to deal with. We thought we had chased her away after changing our minds at the last minute on previous properties we had shown initial interest in. But no, she had been listening to our needs and searched out the perfect place for us, she knew what we were looking for before we knew what we really wanted. She’s not pushy and really wants you to be happy with your purchase.
I met Mel as the owner of The House of Travel in 2016. Since then she and I have maintained a friendly connection and through this relationship, I met her lovely Mum - Annette. Both women present as natural, open, friendly, trustworthy "real" and very savvy businesswomen. When listing and VERY quickly selling our property recently, they went out of their way for us. Giving their time, guidance, well-honed skills, and professionalism. Our sale was a particularly sensitive one but they managed our requests and wishes with kindness and sensitivity. With Mel and Annette at the helm of our house sale, everything went smoothly and easily. Dealing with Mel and Annette made the whole sales experience feel like a breath of fresh air. It was definitely next level compared to other sales experiences we have had which always felt purely transactional. I cannot recommend them and Collab highly enough. Thank you to both of you for making our transition one of celebration and positivity. Mixed in with a healthy dose of fun & good humour for good measure.
We would wholeheartedly recommend Mel Taylor and Annette Weir from Collab, who recently sold our rental property We were aware. being so close to Xmas, that it was not the best time to put our house on the market with most agents going on holiday and traditionally a slow period in the real estate market We partly chose these agents over others as they were prepared to work right through this time and they managed to secure the last photo opportunity of the year with the listing going online within a day. The ladies had a few viewings and ran open homes keeping us well informed along the way Within 2 weeks they presented us with two offers, one of which they negotiated to an acceptable price. We were amazed as hadn't expected any action so soon let alone a sale in this slow market. A shorter settlement date was also negotiated which meant the whole process took less than a month. When we heard of other properties languishing on the market then having to drop in price we were glad to accept their advice based on sound market knowledge At all times Mel and Annette acted very professionally but personably making the process really easy and the experience great for us as vendors Thanks Guys !
Mel was very helpful in guiding my wife and I with the purchase of our first home. Overall, we are very satisfied with the smooth process of the sale and purchase of the property. We highly recommend her services to others.
Mel & Annette are a pleasure to deal with. A very straightforward transaction with clear and concise communication. It was a complete breeze! They kept us in the loop and informed every step of the way. We would highly recommend the dream team!! Thanks again :)
