We had a couple of agents come through to look at our house to sell, Mike stood out for his knowledgeable, honest and personable approach. We didn’t have the easiest house to sell with a long settlement date and selling over the quieter Christmas/New Years period. Mike worked hard putting together a great campaign, following up all potential leads keeping us in the loop the whole time. Even when Mike took his family holiday he was still available when needed. The sale was super easy and having everything online made what can be a stressful time smooth! Would recommend Mike to anyone looking to sell!

Mike was always extremely professional and kept me up to date on everything that was happening and was always willing to answer my questions without hesitation, Nothing was to much trouble for him. It was a pleasure dealing with him and would not hesitate to recommend him or Aritzo.

Mike was very informative and happy to share his market knowledge, He made selling a house during lockdown a stress free experience,

Home owners beware - Artizo are interested only in making a quick sale and getting their flat fee. What price your home sells for, does not matter to them. My sister and I were rushed through signing a false document immediately after our auction, which resulted in us paying thousands in penalty fees to the new owner, a foreign investor. As young home owners trying to sell our home, we dealt with three of their 'agents' - Mike Mattson, Te Rere Cleveland and Rawinia Matthews - and not one of them had our best interests in mind. When we raised our concerns with the company owner, Pernell Callaghan, he offered no support or sympathy and basically told us to drop it. You may pay more fees, going with a reputable agent - but, you will be dealing with a reputable agent. Steer clear of these cowboys.


Mike was a great agent to work with, he was helpful and knowledgeable which made the selling process nice and easy for us. Working with Arizto was a really simple process, my husband and I loved how the sales process was all done online making the overall selling process a breeze. Thanks again Mike :)

I would use Mike again if I need him in the future. Thanks

Mike was very friendly and helpful. He explained everything to us what the steps were going to be.He listen to us with what we wanted out of our auction. Very happy with the company.

My first impression of Mike was that he is person with authenticity, integrity and is trustworthy. He makes an immediate impression with his confidence. He is quick to build a rapport in a warm friendly and relaxed manner. He cares about personal circumstances and is willing to get involved and offer practical advice and help. He is open and direct without being pushy, his negotiation skills and advice are top notch. He has given his full commitment in the sale of our home. His time management skills are impeccable. He has attended to all calls and queries in a timely manner. We were very impressed with the final sale of the house. Thanking you muchly.

Mike has been great to deal with. He was realistic & accurate in his expections of what we would get for our property, and kept us fully in the loop with progress throughout the sale. We got the full level of service you would expect from an experienced real estate agent, plus the convenience of an online portal to manage our sale.

Mike was fantastic to work with. Knowledgable and personable - I found Mike both positive and realistic in his feedback and advice. Would recommend him for someone else going through the house selling process. Thank you Mike!
