Phil & Cath did an amazing job selling our place at a time when the market was ‘hard work’. Great communication, good knowledge of the market, honest & pragmatic advice. Good initiative with the sales planning & adjustments to respond to the changing market. Went the extra mile to do things when we were not close by. Gave us confidence & keep working hard to a good result.

In a matter of weeks Phil helped us get the house ready, managed hundreds of people visiting and got us an offer.

We have bought and sold a number of homes with Phil - he alway provides excellent service and achieves a good outcome.

We met Phil at just our third open home and we worked quickly with his team on both sides of the deal to purchase the house he showed us and to sell our own. He quickly worked out our interests and how serious we were, and from that moment he powered forward to make a deal that was suitable for motivated buyers and sellers. Phil and team broke the housing chain to deliver two happy buyers and two happy sellers in 4 weeks, with no-nonsense, top notch real estate advice and action that will set us up for the next decade and beyond.

Phil and Cath developed a sound sales strategy which they executed well. Good communication and advice.

We had a very positive experience with Phil and Cath of Tommy’s when selling our family home. I really felt that Phil had our best interests at heart as vendors - and I haven’t always found that with previous agents. He was honest and up-front about the realities of selling, and we obtained a result we were very happy with in what was a fairly uncertain market. Together with Cath, they both made the selling process very easy as they were across all the intricacies of the process. I recommend Phil and Cath to prospective sellers who are looking for an agent to sell their home.

Clear concise, easy to deal with, clearly experienced and knowledgeable.

We have worked with Phil on and off for over 20 years buying and selling many properties in Wellington. So when we decided to sell our family home, as all our children have moved north and we still live outside of NZ, it was a given we would engage Phil. Both Phil and his wife, Cath, recommended what we needed to do to present our house looking its finest. We followed their advice which included staging and some landscaping activity at the end. We were unconditional 10 days later! Settlement was 21 days after we listed our property for sale. Unbelievable at the higher end in a flat Wellington market. Hats off to Phil and Cath for expert advice and for locating the right buyer at the right time. This is the reason we have repeatedly returned to Phil when looking to buy or sell! We appreciate his straight up professional approach.

We first came across Phil when we were looking to buy a high-end apartment in Wellington. It takes allot to impress us when it comes to real estate agents, however Phil did just that. Professional, knowledgeable and not pushy. As a result, when we came to sell our apartment 5 years later, we were only going to use one person and that was Phil. Phil didn't disappoint, the apartment sold quickly for a price we were happy with. We wouldn't hesitate to use or recommend Phil again.

This is my first home purchase experience and thank you to Phil and Catherine for making it a smooth and seamless process. My queries were promptly answered, keeping me informed of the development and the constant guidance and support till the end. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Phil and his team. His professional service and support is invaluable, kept the price negotiation simple and smooth, and I am glad to have Phil and his team as my agent.

Highly recommend Phil Mears. I wanted to sell my home quickly and right from the start he was extremely professional, knowledgeable and hard working to make the sale happen.

We used Phil and Lisa from his team to help us sell our Mother's property in Upper Hutt. Phil's professionalism and understanding of the local market was exceptional and the result was a quick sale above our price expectation - Definitely 5 star service
