Nick Dawn has excellent experience and communication keeping me up to date every step of the way. Great result on our property at auction day.

Nick works hard for his clients to gain the best results and his focus and drive shows in the results achieved. He is very accommodating and patient with a resolution based attitude. We had a particular tricky purchase which Nick worked tirelessly at to get over the line and for that we are extremely grateful. He will be our first call whenever buying or selling in the future.

Nick is thoroughly professional in all aspects of his role and he is a pleasure to work with. Although we were selling in something of a buyers' market, we were most impressed with Nick's efforts to maximize interest and the important work he did bringing parties to the auction. As a result, we were very pleased with the outcome and certainly not left wondering if we could have done any better.

Seven years ago when we bought our house Christchurch, we were ably assisted in navigating the New Zealand Real Estate world by Kim Ric-Hansen, acting as our Buyer's Agent. Unfortunately, we could only enjoy our home for nine months, before work circumstances forced our relocation to Auckland. When we decided six years later that we were unlikely to return to Christchurch, we naturally turned to Harcourts and Kim to assist us in selling our house. Kim had in the meantime progressed in her career to managing the Harcourts Gold sales team, so assigned Nick Dwan to our cause. Due to having already made an offer on an Auckland property conditional on selling in Christchurch, Nick was faced with the unenviable task of preparing a campaign, knocking a property that had seen four tenants in six years into a saleable condition, and going to auction in time to meet our purchase settlent date. He hit the ground running, and ran Open Homes at a frequency we thought not to be possible. When auction day came and there were no bidders in the room our spirits sank, but Nick just calmly let us know that he was running another Open Home that same Thursday evening, and more over the weekend! Thankfully, by the Friday evening he could inform us that we were in a multi-offer situation, and after a couple of tense days the offer we decided on went unconditional, and will settle in time for our purchase with a day to spare. Our thanks to Nick (and Kim for having full confidence in him) for committing to the challenge, and piloting our sale into safe harbour.

Nick Dwan provided exceptional customer service, always willing to go the extra mile, as well as keeping us informed at every step of the process. His expert market knowledge also put us ahead of the game. I wouldn't hesitate to work with Nick again for any future real estate needs.

Nick was amazing throughout the entire process of helping me in to my first home. His experience and understanding of the local area was crucial at auction time and his attention to detail got us over the line. His kindness throughout this process made a huge difference and for anybody seeking some real estate advice or support I would highly recommend Nick.

Nick ran a brilliant, strong campaign at our property which had been in our family for over 40 years. Nick's networks are broad and he was tenacious, easy to speak openly with which enabled a sense of calm and trust during the process of selling a piece of our family's history. Nick's communication was detailed and thoughtful, he put together a fit-for-purpose marketing campaign and his excellent work ethic was demonstrated easily in all of my communication with him. The result of that was having several motivated people in the auction room and Nick worked hard to bring a positive result when the hammer fell to conclude a fairly compelling auction! I sincerely recommend working with Nick. His results really do speak for themselves.

Nick was very helpful in all aspects of the sale, even doing a bit of carpentry work to satisfy the purchaser after the pre settlement inspection.

Nick was awesome. He was helpful, clear and supportive through the process of buying the house. I would recommend Nick and Harcourts Gold to others as he is sincere and honest.

Nick made our experience of selling our first home feel easy and always made sure we understood everything that was going on. We felt like he really guided us through our whole journey from selling to buying our new home. If we were to ever sell again I would definitely get back in contact with Nick and always recommend him to friends and family. It was a daunting experience made easy!

Nick was diligent in getting the information I wanted prior to buying the property. He was timely with his answers, and I felt he worked hard for the vendor, but also for me as a prospective buyer.

A genuine guy Not pushy at all Works hard to make things happen Very methodical Very good operator
