I was referred to Murray through a work contact. As out-of-town buyers, my wife and I didn't know quite what to expect, but Murray asked us a lot of questions to determine exactly what we were looking for, and guided us skillfully through the ins and outs of home buying in Christchurch. Murray is a great communicator and a real people person. He always let us know what his considerations were when recommending homes for viewing, and always made us feel in control of the process. The day we found the home that we ended up buying was one I'll never forget. I flew down from Palmerston North just to look at one home in particular. Murray met me at the airport with bad news: the viewing had been cancelled. Murray and his wife Karen (who are a great team) worked hard all day to find good options for us--and one of them was perfect! Murray's willingness and ability to work in with other agencies certainly made me feel that our needs were his top priority.

Murray and Karen worked tirelessly in the process of getting my house to market. After multiple delays with contractors, finally we got to market and sold the house for a good price, Murray and Karen always focused on the positive , kept me forward focussed and were supportive and encouraging after several deadlines were missed . Murray and Karen did small extra things like help with water blasting and cleaning up after tradies had been on site. I was out of town so Murray and Karen ran the open homes and gave me feedback every step of the way. They really do work hard for the vendor and were really helpful for the first home buyer that secured my property . I would recommend Murray and Karen to take you through the house selling process, hold your hand , explain everything and talk you through any challenges keeping a nice balance and a cool non judgemental approach to the process for the un-initiated. I chose Murray and Karen because they are an honest hard working couple . Thank you

As a first timer, I was pleasantly surprised at how smooth everything went. The honesty and communication was top tier. Fantastic experience all around

As a buyer, Murray had been really helpful and very accommodating to us. He had been a great part of our journey of buying our first homes and would love others to have the same experience.

Murray & Karen from the first time we met made us feel at ease and were open about the possible/probable outcome of listing with them. They are knowledgeable about the local area & market. They gave great advice, especially about the staging of our property which really paid off. They worked extremely hard with the buyers to get the best result. They were very passionate about the people involved in this sale (the buyers & us) They exceeded our expectations in this experience We would highly recommend them & would use them again

As it was the first time for me selling a property, I found Murray to be extremely helpful in every aspect of the process. He explained things very well and I felt comfortable with him leading the marketing and open homes.

Murray and Karen knew what they were doing, and were there to help us the whole way. Sometimes I felt under pressure a bit but that could be due to our lack of knowledge as it's our first home

Murray and Karen were incredible, they provided great insight into the market and were able to provide clear guidance and support throughout the whole process. For someone who was a bit of a Rookie these two were absolute champions. Could not recommend them any higher, from day one they were completely on board with my thinking but also were consistence in sense checking for me. In the areas I felt anxious they took the time to chat through everything to ensure I understood. If you are looking for agents that care, listen and genuinely want the best for you, don’t hesitate. They are the best.

Murray and Karen’s experience and advice was the key gaining a sale. I was really impressed with their hard work on our behalf. Thanks so much

Murray communicates very well and happily will go the extra mile to make sure the job is sorted and the house sold at a good price. He is a man of integrity that you can trust. Really important qualities that we were looking for when selling our house.

Right from the outset, we knew that Murray and Karen Groves were on our side, and wanted the very best outcome for us. Their sound advice helped us prepare the house for sale and the end result was amazing. Their choice of the method of sale was spot-on and the final outcome far exceeded our expectations. Murray and Karen's teamwork was exceptional, giving us great confidence throughout the process. Their communication was outstanding. We always knew where things were at and what was next. Their high level of professionalism was evident from start to finish, making the entire process smooth and stress-free. They were always available to talk and nothing was ever too much trouble for them. We felt they genuinely cared about us and our needs. We wholeheartedly recommend Murray and Karen to anyone looking for exceptional real estate agents.

He talked to us as a friend and told us all we wanted to know plus more, there was 5 of us and he talked to us all. I will recommend him to my friends when they need a house or selling.
