Selling in the current real estate climate is not for the faint hearted. Rawdon and Steve bring a positive spin to all the many ups and downs of the sale process and with a result at the end we were very happy.
The agents (Steve Hood and Rawdon Christie) are amazing. So approachable, realistic, and we felt they had our interests at heart. This was both in selling our home and our repurchase. Having had a family member previously work for Barfoot and Thompson as well makes me loyal to Barfoot. They were both always approachable, and they continually kept us informed - Especially after open homes. Throughout the process, when we had issues or questions, no matter how big or small, they were always available with practical advice. Steve's experience shone through. He is totally approachable, realistic, hard working and dedicated to offering you the best service. He is not pushy, but is very knowledgeable and practical about offering solutions for issues that crop up. He has a wonderful sense of humour and is extremely easy to communicate with. We highly recommend Steve for anyone wanting to sell their home or to purchase a home through. Steve, Rawdon and Jude are an amazing team who Barfoot and Thompson are very lucky to have.
We recently had the pleasure of working with Rawdon Christie and Steve Hood, and we cannot recommend them highly enough as real estate agents. From the outset, they provided clear, practical, and expert advice on how best to prepare our home for sale. Their guidance on staging, presentation, and the small improvements that make a big difference helped us present our property at its absolute best. They also went above and beyond in connecting us with reliable tradespeople—something that saved us time, stress, and ensured every detail of the home was market‑ready. Rawdon and Steve delivered an honest, well‑considered appraisal of our home’s value, and then presented a sales and marketing campaign that proved both realistic and strategically sound. Their partnership with an outstanding photography and video team resulted in marketing materials that exceeded our expectations. Throughout the entire process, communication was one of their greatest strengths. They kept us fully informed at every stage—providing updates, feedback from viewings, and insight into buyer sentiment. Their openness and responsiveness made us feel supported as vendors. Our perception was their engagement with prospective buyers helped create a positive, transparent environment for everyone involved. Rawdon and Steve operate in a very personable way, with integrity and expertise. We have no hesitation in recommending them to anyone looking to sell their home.
Rawdon was a professional through the entire process. His communication was excellent and I have no hesitation in recommending him.
Rawdon is easy to work with, pleasant and good at his job. I would have no qualms about workign with him again.
The process of selling our home with Rawdon & Steve from Barfoots was very positive. We felt they had a real commitment to the sale with a ‘hands on’ approach, great communication & advice. The team steered us through the process with advice on how to present our home to the best advantage for a good sale. We felt they had a personal interest in ensuring we got best outcome possible.
It was a pleasure to work with Rawdon and he remained cheerful and supportive during a difficult market which ended happily for all!
I choose and recommended Rawdon to my husband to sell our property because I have been receiving his newsletters each month for some time, and in them he always conveyed a fresh sense of knowledge about the status of the market, it showed he thought deeply and critically about the market and called it in an unbiased way. But besides that he had indicated his teams approach was hands-on and that they would get on and do what ever was needed to be done to successfully sell a property and do the best for the seller. That indeed was my experience, from the moment we first met to discuss selling the property, until it was successfully sold by way of a multi offer, Rawdon was extremely professional, really up front and clear about what needed to happen and when, and he was polite and tactful with the issues that were difficult. He always made us feel like he was working to help us and added so much value by way of his wise advice. It was easy to trust Rawdon as every action he took was considered, sensible and in the end very valuable. I have sold properties before but have never experienced it to be so easy, and in fact enjoyable, with a superior degree of real estate professionalism. I honestly couldn’t recommend Rawdon and his wonderful team (Steve & Jude) highly enough.
