Neil impressed with his very professional and considerate approach, a very attentive listener. He encouraged us to put forward our best offer as Purchasers but was not pushy and let us have the time to make up our own minds. His advice was very clear and made us feel confident in stepping up. We are very happy with his services and would highly recommend him to both Vendor's and Purchaser's alike.
Neil and Julie made us feel safe, supported and cared for throughout our journey. No question was too simple, no challenge too great. They kept us informed and on track, explained everything in language we could easily understand, and never once left us wondering what was happening and what we needed to do next. And when the time came to close the deal, we knew we'd gotten the best we could ever hope for. Plus they're just good people. We feel like we've made a couple of good friends along the way.
We can't speak more highly of our experience with Neil. We had 100% trust in his integrity and ability throughout the entire process. Nothing was too much trouble, he has a good manner with people and we knew he our best interest at heart. His knowledge of the sales and auction process was high and he has even been a help with our next purchase. I would happily recommend Neil's services.
Neil, along with his senior partner Craig Ashby were our agents for the selling of our property. Both were gentlemanly, knowledgeable, and very reassuring, both to us, as vendors, and to potential buyers, in a difficult market. Nothing was ever too much trouble for them and they would come round at the drop of a hat to sort out any questions or issues we may have had, always arriving with a smile. A pleasure to have had them at our sides. Thank you both very much.
We would not hesitate to recommend Neil Sharpe to anyone who wants everything you require in an agent who will work tirelessly on your behalf. His knowledge and the way nothing is too much trouble to him to be there for you, was certainly appreciated by both Selwyn and I when it came to the selling of our home. Thank you Neil for minimising the stress!
Neil and Craig were honest, gave a realistic market valuation given the conditions in real-estate at the time. They kept us informed of how the marketing and open homes were received and how many likely bidders they would likely have at the auction. Fantastic result at auction. Achieved the reserve price and a little more. Very happy and wouldn't hesitate to recommend or use their services again.
Review Neil and Craig - Thank you so much for your help with selling our home. You made the process simple and easy to understand for us, and we appreciated your patience and expertise. Your knowledge of the market was extremely valuable to us. The marketing of our property was detailed and despite current market trends worked to get potential buyers through the door. All resulting in the sale of our home.
To us, it was a ‘no-brainer’ to employ the services of Craig and Neil to help sell our home. They are local, have been working and living with lifestyle and rural properties for quite a number of years, and their knowledge of this, our area, and the Franklin district in general, is confidence inspiring. Their diligence, professionalism and enthusiasm are second-to-none and they went above-and-beyond our expectations throughout the entire sale process, providing us with sound advice at each and every stage of the campaign. Their knowledge and calm mature manner, inspired us with total confidence that they would always be working to provide the best possible outcome for us. How right we were. We were absolutely thrilled with the results achieved in a particularly challenging market and would highly recommend Craig and Neil to anyone who is seeking genuine, hardworking, and successful salespeople. They really are that good! Natalie & Trewren
Selling your home can be an emotional rollercoaster, especially with the stresses of Covid. Neil was very understanding and patient when dealing with the sale of our home. He made sure that we understood each step of the process, was more than willing to revise details with us, and gave us time when making decisions. Neil's punctuality was impressive. He was always on time, arriving exactly when he said he would. He was quick to answer or return calls and, literally, went the extra mile to get our deal signed, sealed and delivered. Therese & Perrin Madsen
Neil was amazing to work with on the recent purchase of our home in Paerata. He truly went above-and-beyond, meeting us at all hours and in all locations to get the deal signed quickly and effortlessly. He was very professional and assisted us even after the sale, to obtain the necessary paperwork and documentation we required in relation to the history of the home. Thank you so much Neil. We will definitely be recommending you to our family and friends. It is hard to find good salespeople who are prepared to go the extra mile – we certainly found that in you!’ Hayley Peterson – Buyer, Paerata Road, Paerata
When I first thought about selling my rural property of 30 years and moving into a retirement village nearer my family in Auckland, I was quite worried about the process and stress of doing it all. That was until I met Craig and Neil. They came out to meet me and took the time to go through the whole process with me so I could more easily understand what was involved, and immediately made me feel that they were the team I could trust to do the job for me, and leave it in their very capable hands. Once I had made my mind up to list my home, they were both very attentive to my wishes, even to the point of Neil driving from Waiuku over to the North Shore to get my brother to sight and co-sign the documents. They were both wonderful to me and certainly made selling my home as easy as it could be. They were very knowledgeable, honest, and up-front, and I was kept informed every step of the way. If I ever had any queries or thought about something I wanted to ask, there was always one of them available to talk me through my concerns. They were so helpful throughout the marketing campaign and afterwards, (Neil even repaired the handle on my frypan which had fallen off one morning shortly before they arrived!) I can’t recommend them highly enough to anyone wishing to sell their property. Pamela Paul - Pukeoware Rd
