Sold - 56 Edmund Street, St Heliers

I have had both the privilege to buy my current property in Glendowie and then sell my former home in St Heliers with The Cleaves. They provided clear and calm negotiation support through the purchase of my current property and did a phenomenal job navigating some incredibly difficult issues with the sale of my former home, holding our hand each step of the way and making sure we got the most out of our asset. I highly recommend them, from either side of the sale.

Very well negotiated home and excellent marketing

Martelli Buyers Agents have negotiated on, and purchased, a number of homes through the Cleaves at Bayleys Remuera. Each time we have found them to be sharp negotiators, knowledgeable about the home they are selling, and great communicators. Our clients, based off shore, are thrilled to have secured this beautiful St Heliers home to move their family into, and we appreciate the work and support of the Cleaves to get this deal agreed.

Excellent property and great negotiations

Martelli Buyers Agents represented a buyer seeking a beautiful modern St Heliers home near St Thomas' School. The Cleaves marketed 25A Brilliant Street exceptionally well and had priced it very accurately. Peter and Myles worked with their vendor to negotiate in additions that would work well for our buyers, and resulted in a very positive outcome with a quick settlement.

We enjoyed working with The Cleaves – their process and communication is very focused and efficient, and we were happy with the result.  They are straight talkers, and have a good understanding of the market, and manage buyers well.  Very happy to recommend.

Peter, Lisa and Myles make an outstanding team, each bringing different strengths that complement one another exceptionally well. Their local market knowledge, combined with their honest, transparent approach and highly responsive communication, made the entire process straightforward and enjoyable. They were attentive and engaged from start to finish, and the support of the wider Bayleys network, provided additional reach, resources and market presence that strengthened an already impressive service offering, which resulted in a successful sale under the hammer at auction. I would have no hesitation recommending the Cleaves team and Bayleys to anyone considering selling in the Eastern Bays area.

A great experience

A great experience

We had a great experience working with The Cleaves team. Peter & Myles led the process with confidence and professionalism, and from start to finish the communication was clear, timely, and easy to follow. Lisa, and the wider team were a huge support throughout the campaign. Their coordination behind the scenes, attention to detail, and willingness to step in whenever needed made the whole process feel smooth and well-managed. They were great to deal with - practical, responsive, and always focused on getting the best outcome. The campaign was well executed and carried through seamlessly to auction, delivering a strong result. We’d happily recommend The Cleaves to anyone looking for a reliable and effective team.
