Michael Gladding

We had an awesome experience working with Michael. Right from the start, he was incredibly professional, hardworking, and on top of every little detail. He gave us great, practical advice on how to stage and declutter the house to make sure it looked its absolute best for buyers. Communication was spot on throughout the whole campaign. After every single open home weekend, he’d jump on the phone to give us regular updates and walk us through the viewer stats. He's genuinely trustworthy and gave us straight-up, honest advice about the market and what to expect. When it came to auction day, he kept us completely in the loop, but what really blew us away was his dedication at the very end. He was up working and in contact with us until 10:30 PM, grinding to negotiate with the buyer and get the deal over the line. Michael also helped us buy our next place after the sale; if he hadn’t gotten our deal over the line so quickly and unconditionally, we would've missed out on buying our dream home the very next week.

Michael communicated everything. He was always positive, even when we had difficult purchasers to deal with. He went the extra mile to get pen to paper and the best price. Nothing was ever a problem, even when he had to sit in the traffic to drive from the North Shore to Manukau twice a week for open homes. He was also very passionate about the property, which showed in his enthusiasm. I would highly recommend him.

Right throughout the process Michael has been a true professional. Nothing was any trouble even with the large number of questions we asked. He was very respectful of our thoughts and decisions and kept us well informed with weekly check-ins and insight into how our campaign was tracking. Everything was very transparent and we knew exactly where things were at right up until the auction date. Highly recommend Michael and his wider Ray White team. He totally put us at ease and helped us through the process.

We had a fantastic experience working with Michael. His knowledge of the area was amazing, and he did so much research to help us understand pricing and the market, which gave us real confidence throughout the process. Michael was extremely attentive, personable, and always approachable. No question ever felt like a silly question. We really appreciated the constant feedback after open homes and how well he kept us informed every step of the way. Most importantly, he made what could have been a stressful process feel like a breeze. We’re so grateful for all his hard work and support, and would highly recommend Michael to anyone looking to sell.

Michael was fantastic to work with throughout the entire process. We decided early on to say yes to the recommendations he made, and every single one proved to be the right call — from staging and photography through to the marketing and overall sale approach. His communication was always clear and thoughtful; he was highly responsive and consistently reassuring, which made the experience much less stressful. In the end, we achieved a great result that was right in line with the expectations he had set from the beginning. I would highly recommend Michael to anyone looking for a knowledgeable and trustworthy real estate agent.

Simply put, we would not have put on home on the market if Michael had not reached out to us when he joined Ray White. His genuine personal approach to listening and acting in a professional manner made the experience a pleasure. His local market knowledge, network scope and communication style made Michael the only choice to sell our home. We 100% recommend Michael to anyone looking to sell or purchase their next home.
