Responsive and got back to us with answers to our queries

Reuben was very responsive with emails or written communication. He also called me a few times to request information. Reuben's video of my house was excellent. He had good ideas to help prepare the house for inspections. Reuben kept us up-to-date during the sale process. Reuben was very professional. He was friendly and tried to assist with any issues that arose quickly so that the sale process would go smoothly. I would highly recommend Reuben to assist you with the sale or purchase of your property. Reuben has now become a family friend and he also assisted us in writing a recommendation for a rental here in Australia.

We recently sold our home with Reuben and couldn’t have asked for a better experience. From day one he was upfront, honest and completely transparent about the process and the market. He didn’t overpromise or try to push any agenda. What really stood out was how hard he worked for us. Reuben went above and beyond at every stage — from preparing the property for market through to negotiating the final sale. He gave us clear advice, he was proactive, responsive, and always one step ahead. We felt supported and in great hands the entire way through. Selling a home can be stressful, but Reuben made the process feel structured and well managed. We trusted his judgement and the result reflected that. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him

Reuben was an excellent estate agent. From his initial appraisal to the video he scripted and directed. Our house was sold quickly and with ease. Reuben has outstanding communication skills and maintained his professionalism throughout the process. We highly recommend Reuben as an estate agent.

We highly recommend Reuben after such a positive experience. From the moment we met him at the open home, his genuine and friendly nature put us at ease. Throughout the process, he maintained excellent communication as we waited to sell our home and prepare our offer. Although he was representing the vendors and clearly worked hard to achieve the best outcome for them, he also went above and beyond to accommodate our needs and make the experience smooth and positive despite the many stresses in our home buying journey. We’re so grateful for his support and are absolutely thrilled with our new home.

I would definitely recommend Rueben. He was open and honest throughout the entire process of selling a long held family home. Rueben's communication was excellent throughout the entire process. He achieved a price within expectations in a challenging market.

In December of 2025 a wandering Harcourts agent happened upon me in the garden of our home in Tranquil Glade Hillcrest, inquiring of our appetite to sell our property. While not the first to make this approach, he was by far the most endearing, engaging, and personable sales person to do so. Mr Reuben Pillsbury presented as an easygoing gentleman more interested in how he could be of service than how he could make a coin. I was interested to see how long that would last, so we opened up the discussion. I am very happy to attest that Reuben's approach of service to his clients lasted well beyond the successful sale of our home. Reuben's communications throughout the entire process were exemplary, occasionally less formal as our rapport grew, but always meaningful, and his background in media and communications enabled a very professional video of the property that we are certain piqued the extraordinary interest in our property. Reuben made recommendations that paid dividends, such as video creation, photographers, solicitors and staging providers and most importantly, listened to our responses and acted on our feedback. Reuben consistently provided guidance in the form of options, progress reports following open homes, and insights into purchaser interest. If you happen to be in the market, to be in the market, we would highly, strongly, warmly recommend Mr Reuben Pillsbury of Harcourts Cooper & Co Real Estate Ltd. Barry & Monika Miller, Tranquil Glade, Hillcrest, Auckland.\

Rueben was very efficient and worked very hard particularly with a back up offer. He advised on presentation and this was a great help and we achieved a very good result.

Reuben has helped us in making a tough decision of jumping into the property ladder. He made us see the big picture and suggested solutions to problems we encountered. His line of communication is good too as he answer all our questions without making us feel uneasy.

Rueben was a fantastic help to us buying our first home. A great communicator, always prompt in his responses. Always ready with solutions or explanations of the process. We'd not have made it into our first home without his support.

Reuben was fantastic to deal with. Honest and open communication all the way through the process. Would highly recommend Reuben to anyone.
