Oana Simmons

We had a great experience working with Oana. Communication was clear and responsive from the outset, including before we formally engaged. She made time to meet us on a Sunday and guided us through the process professionally. We appreciated her approach during negotiations, particularly as there was interest from another buyer, and she allowed us the opportunity to present our offer directly rather than immediately moving to a multi-offer process. Overall, she was knowledgeable, easy to deal with, and helped make what can be a stressful experience feel straightforward and transparent.

We engaged Oana to sell a property that needed some care in a delicate family situation. We did not reside in Papamoa which made things more difficulty at our end. Oana went above and beyond, arranging contractors so the property could be tidied up and dealing with the occupier sensitively. She was fantastic with her communication and achieved a great result.

We both cannot express strongly enough just how blessed we were to have the pleasure of having Oana Simmons as our real estate agent in the purchase of what is to be our new home. Oana immediately strikes up a good rapport with people, is very professional, and listens carefully to what people need and require in a home/property. She hears clearly what their concerns are, and allays those worries with both suggestions and solutions. With us being out of towners, she had names & phone numbers at her fingertips of many reputable people who could be contacted to arrange the necessary requirements with both buying and selling a home. That was invaluable to us with us not being locals. Throughout this process Oana has kept us informed the whole way through, and her experience and knowledge is vast. When you're not used to this process some things can become confusing and scarey, but Oana is up with the play in every aspect. She really does try to do her very best both for the buyer and for the vendor. Yes, "she sure knows her stuff" that is for certain! We knew from the start this home had just the right layout, storage and style for our lifestyle, and is going to be a very pleasant house and section to live in. We are excited for our next phase in our lives here. As Oana is a very warm hearted person, she made us feel relaxed the whole way through, and she went out of her way to accommodate our travelling through the area, even at what could be considered awkward hours. To be honest we really do enjoy seeing her, she really is a lovely person. With no hesitation we highly recommend Oana as a real estate agent whether you are buying or selling. She will do her absolute best for you that we can guarantee going by our experience, she's just great! "Thankyou so much Oana." Graham & Jan

From our very first interaction, Oana demonstrated an outstanding level of professionalism, market knowledge, and genuine commitment to understanding my needs. Her communication was consistently clear, timely, and proactive, ensuring I felt informed and confident at every stage of the process. Oana was always available to answer questions, no matter how small, and went above and beyond to ensure every aspect of the purchase was handled seamlessly. I would highly recommend this agent to anyone seeking a knowledgeable, reliable, and results-driven professional. Oana’s commitment to excellence and client satisfaction is truly outstanding, and I am incredibly grateful for her support in helping me secure my new home.

Oana first attracted our attention when we were seeking a new property. She listened to our requirements and diligently worked to source prospective purchases over the ensuing months. When my wife and I listed our Te Puke property, she was thus a natural first choice and that proved to be a wise decision. She worked social media well, organised professional staging, offered a competitive commission rate, materially assisted with presentation for sale and attended open homes every week. In challenging market conditions, she achived our target sale price and we admire her: professionalism, likeability & tenacity. Highly recommended!

Oana was brilliant at communicating and always responded to us promptly. She was transparent and she made the buying process (as first home buyers) much less daunting.
