Nik was great to work with, a real professional. He went out of his way to make this an easy experience, always coming up with a positive outcome. Communication was relaxed and easy, negotiation skills were A1, market knowledge was so helpful. Marketing was done with style. I truly thank Nik for everything he did and highly recommend him, you will be in good hands.
Took a while to sell but Nik was very diligent and always found ways to keep interest in the market about the house
My wife and I are really glad we chose Nik to help us sell our house in Army Bay . He worked very hard for us in an uncertain market . Great communication and advice on which marketing strategies for the property. He also rolled his sleeves up and pushed some wheelbarrows of bark around the property and helped tidy up before the photo shoot . We really appreciated the effort Nik put in for us . We will most definitely use Nik again and highly recommend you do also . Thanks again Brady & Andie
We had a really positive experience working with Nik when purchasing our home. From the first interaction he was friendly, professional, and very easy to work with. Nik communicated clearly throughout the whole process and was always quick to respond whenever we had questions. Buying a property can sometimes feel overwhelming, but he helped make the experience feel smooth and well managed. He has a strong understanding of the local market and handled everything with a calm and professional approach, which gave us a lot of confidence along the way. We always felt well informed and supported. Overall it was a great experience and we would happily recommend Nik to anyone looking to buy or sell in the area.
Nik went above and beyond for us. He really listened to what we wanted and made us feel supported every step of the way. Buying/selling a home can be overwhelming but Nik made it feel exciting instead. We’re so grateful for Niks patience, honesty, and hard work! We highly recommend Nik! He's Friendly, reliable, and incredibly helpful. He made everything easy and stress-free.
Working with Nik Sams was a fantastic experience. I can say with certainty that this deal would have fallen through three or four times if it weren’t for Nik. There were several moments where both parties were ready to walk away, but Nik’s excellent negotiating skills always found a middle ground that worked for everyone. His communication is second to none, he is ultra-responsive, never misses a call, and always follows through. If you want an agent who is proactive and can handle a complex deal, Nik is your guy.
Nik was great with the sale of our Gulf Harbour home. He was very supportive through multiple unexpected hiccups and achieved a good result at the end. I would highly recommend Nik to anyone who wants an inclusive and supportive sale.
Understand what I want and action quick. Efficient and professional agent. Thank you Nik
As first home buyers, Nik was super communicative and helpful, assisting in the process and explaining detailed steps of the requirements. Also Nik was just generally really helpful with all aspects of home buying and moving in, whether you need attorneys, builders, painters.. he has a great network and friendly supportive service. Highly reccomend.
Nik sold our lifestyle section via negotiation and was excellent to deal with. Communication was great throughout and he was easy to talk to. He was open, very proactive, and navigated some tricky negotiations smoothly. You get the sense Nik genuinely cares. Highly recommend.
Living in Madrid while selling a property in Auckland meant I needed a real estate agent I could completely trust — and Nik Sams from Barfoot & Thompson Whangaparāoa delivered on every expectation. From the very beginning, Nik provided clear, thoughtful advice and a well-structured strategy that guided me through every stage of the process: pre-renovation planning, renovation, auction, and final sale. His market knowledge was invaluable — he didn’t just suggest improvements, he explained what would genuinely add value and what wouldn’t, ensuring every decision was focused on achieving the best possible result. Nik also introduced me to his professional network of renovation service vendors to manage the full renovation, and that turned out to be a game-changer. Coordinating everything from overseas could have been stressful, but thanks to Nik’s network, experience, and hands-on involvement, the entire process felt smooth and under control. Communication was another standout. Nik was always easy to reach, followed through exactly when he said he would, and kept me informed at every step — which made a huge difference given the distance and time zones. He also did a fantastic job leveraging my existing relationship with the agency that had been renting the property, ensuring a seamless transition from rental to sale. Most importantly, I felt completely confident in Nik’s hands. His professionalism, reliability, and genuine commitment to getting the best outcome gave me peace of mind — and the final result proved that my trust was well placed. If you’re looking for an experienced, proactive, and trustworthy agent — I can’t recommend Nik Sams at Barfoot & Thompson Whangaparāoa highly enough.
We would highly recommend Nik to anyone looking to purchase or sell their home. He is amazing to deal with and nothing was ever a problem! His communication skills are excellent and we just want to thank him for helping us to purchase our lovely new home!
