Nick is a down to earth bloke and great agent. He was always happy to put in extra hours in order to make sure our sale was a sucess. If you are looking for honest accurate advice and an extremely hard working agent, I highly recommend calling Nick.

Great communication, fully informed and whitest I know Nick works for the vendor it was a a no stress transaction. I would certainly use Nick again!

We’ve come across Nick a lot in the past and he’s become a bit of a family friend. He has a very positive mindset and always wants the best for you. We trusted his advice and the results speak for themselves. We encourage anyone selling to approach Nick and his team if you honest advice and a quick sale! Thanks Nick!

My wife and I have a great experience in house purchasing with Nick Hughes, our real estate agent. Using his professional expertise and skills, he navigates our way through an interesting, fun and fruitful journey that leads all the way to our dream home. I highly recommend Nick to be your agent to provide the unique "Nick service" to you if you are also seeking a property to buy here in New Plymouth:-).

Nick was great he got us in for viewings so fast and at our convenience and sorted so we could visit again. Kept in touch but never bothered us and we didn’t feel any pressure from him.


Nick sold our rental property, he worked in well with our tenants and made it less stressful for all parties. Nick negotiated a good price for us in a tough market.

As first home buyers myself and my partner were novices on this first home buying journey! Nick has really taken his time to explain in detail just how each step works as far as the sale and purchase agreement goes. As well as always having great prompt communication with updating us where necessary! He’s a genuine agent that looks after not only his sellers but the buyers too!! We really appreciate the time and effort you have given us. Bring on settlement 🏆

Always kept to timetable estimates and information was accurate

We found Nick's communication and follow up to be lacking. Nick completely forgot to tell us that there was a deadline, we only found out at 2pm of that day that he was showing the vendors the offers. He also did not advise us that there were other offers so we did not have the chance to improve our offer. Our offer thankfully was accepted, however Nick did not follow up with us the next day to advise us how to pay the deposit, I had to ask for that information. We would not recommend Nick as your agent.

Once again Nick Hughes and the First National team have marketed a property for us and achieved a very satisfying result in quick smart time. We just did what he requested pre marketing and a great result was achieved in a difficult market. Thanks Nick for such a quick result. Definitely our go to no hassle, nothing is a problem sales agent.
