Nina's Excellent

Nina did a great job selling our house in a very difficult market. She was very proactive with her communications and was a pleasure to deal with. Thankyou very much Nina & Team!

Outstanding service, incredible communication, and a seamless sale from across the Tasman.

We couldn’t recommend Nina and David James highly enough. They did an absolutely incredible job selling our home in Nelson while we were living completely remotely in Australia, something that could have been incredibly stressful, but they made the whole process feel remarkably easy. From the very beginning, Nina was professional, knowledgeable, incredibly responsive and genuinely lovely to deal with. We had complete confidence in her and David, and they went above and beyond to make sure everything was taken care of while we were on the other side of the Tasman. Their communication was fantastic, they kept us informed every step of the way, and we always felt that our home was in the best possible hands. They put so much care, energy and attention into the sale, and it was obvious that they genuinely wanted the best possible outcome for us. Selling a house remotely requires an enormous amount of trust, and Nina and David completely earned ours. We honestly couldn’t have asked for a better team to look after our home and the whole selling process. We are incredibly grateful for everything they did and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to anyone looking to sell in Nelson. They were absolutely fantastic from start to finish!

Polished, experienced & calm

Having worked with Nina as both purchaser and vendor we would not hesitate to recommend her. Nina’s experience in real estate shines through in every step - The administration and documentation required all handled very smoothly by David James, making these two a well-polished & exceptional team. Communication was always prompt, clear and friendly, and the whole process felt calm and very well managed.

Smooth communications, professional experience - highly recommend.

We first met Nina at an open home and were immediately drawn to her warm, friendly nature and the easy, genuine way she connected with us. She’s energetic, approachable, and informative - the kind of person you instantly feel comfortable working with. Throughout the process, Nina guided us with experience, confidence and positivity. Achieving our full asking price - no easy feat in the current market - is testament to her skill and dedication. We also want to acknowledge David with his excellent communications and the wider Bayleys team, whose support was also greatly appreciated. The marketing materials, especially the photos and video, were outstanding and really showcased our home beautifully. We are very happy with the result - many thanks!
