Pat Lapalapa

Pat is an extremely experienced REA known in our community as the top guy and even better, helping support some of the younger agents coming through. Savvy business man, but caring and respectful of our specific needs. Knowledgeable, experienced, concise, efficient and effective. Straight to the point from the get go, specifically, running the numbers and scenarios to ensure we would be better off following the sale of our home - especially given our family of 6! Was able to guide us through the whole process seamlessly and effortlessly. Understanding and patient with our particular needs, but being mindful of the greater picture for the future, reminding us of the next potential future property move to ensure we selected our next home wisely. Great comms, regular check ins, and receptive of our specific requests at every step and willing to find a solution. With his wisdom and expert advice (along with the team), we were able to secure a great outcome in the current market, but particularly for our personal financial situation, helping set us up for our next property venture! Great tips and learnings along the way, esp at the auction. Felt prepared which helped with negotiations to get close to a premium price as possible. Explained all potential scenarios which was helpful in us being able to understand the situation during the auction and negotiations and how that might affect the sale, enabling us to adapt to each scenario as it unfolded and quickly act, under pressure. Without us we believe we would have sold for far less. We appreciated your service greatly as well as Paul Ma'afu. Thank you team, and we hope to do business again in 5-10 years time when we envision our next property move might be :)

Pat and his team were very responsive throughout the campaign and always kept us up-to-date with buyers that were fairly interested and so forth. In the end we're still happy with the outcome and excited for our journey abroad.

Pat and his team have been a pleasure to work with. From our very first interaction through to the successful sale of our house, Pat’s communication was consistently clear, timely, and professional. His knowledge and expertise of the industry were evident throughout our discussions. He took the time to ensure we fully understood each step, which gave us confidence in “trusting the process.” We appreciated his collaborative approach. Pat respected and supported our decisions while also providing guidance when needed. Pat’s integrity and commitment were evident throughout the process. We are truly grateful for the effort he put in, that resulted in the sale of our house. We would highly recommend Pat to anyone looking for a reliable and professional real estate agent.

Pat is an awesome Realestate agent. He is down to earth, follows through, great with communication and all round good guy. Really enjoyed working with Pat and totally recommend him.

Pat has been an incredible support in guiding me through some truly pivotal decisions. His communication was always clear and efficient, and he took the time to patiently explain everything in a way that made sense to me. It was obvious that he genuinely had my best interests and my family’s at heart. Highly recommend working with him!
