Paul helped the reviewer sell this property

Exceptional service selling our Waiuku property from overseas

I recently sold my property at 8A Domain Street, Waiuku, through Paul Gardiner of Barfoot & Thompson Waiuku, and I would like to express my sincere appreciation for the excellent service Paul provided throughout the entire process. What made this sale particularly challenging was that I was living in Australia while the property was being sold in New Zealand. I therefore needed an agent I could trust to be my eyes and ears on the ground, communicate clearly and deal promptly with issues as they arose. Paul did exactly that. From preparing and marketing the property, conducting open homes and dealing with prospective purchasers, through to negotiating the successful sale, Paul was professional, approachable and extremely helpful. He kept me informed throughout and provided practical advice without unnecessary pressure. Paul's assistance became even more valuable once we had a purchaser and moved through the conditional and pre-settlement stages. Various matters arose from inspections and needed to be resolved while I was coordinating everything remotely. Paul helped keep communication flowing and the transaction moving towards settlement. The property successfully settled on 4 September 2026. After owning the home for many years, this was an important milestone for my family. Selling a property from another country could have been stressful, but Paul's local knowledge, communication and professionalism made a tremendous difference. Thank you, Paul, for your hard work, patience and support. I would happily recommend Paul Gardiner to anyone buying or selling property in Waiuku and the wider Franklin area.
