House Sale

I cannot recommend Rick enough, he has sold three houses for me now and each time he has exceeded expectations. His market knowledge and knowing how to sell the property to maximise the sale price is a highlight. I have no problems recommending Rick to any future buyers.

Absolutely Brilliant

Rick made our selling experience stress free from the moment he listed our property. His marketing out shone what is the norm in North Otago using a professional photographer and video. Our property was not only featured on numerous websites but also on social media like Facebook and Instagram. Within days of being on Trademe our property had 94 watches. A similiar property with another real estate company only had 12 watches in the same time period. His advice on marketing was spot on and saved us a lot of money! The open homes were very busy and resulted in Rick presenting us with multiple offers, one of which we accepted. Rick didn't stop there though, he kept working and then found a cash unconditional buyer that made a subsequent back up offer, so our property was then SOLD, we just didn't know who to. We have no hesitation in recommending Rick to any potential sellers.

Very helpful and reliable

From my first contact with Rick he was very helpful and reliable. As a buyer he keep me updated on the progress of the purchase and went out of his way to make it as smooth as possible. After the paperwork was finished Rick kept in touch and arranged for me to show my children through the house. I would be more than happy to deal with Rick in the future.

Better than the usual

Rick, was friendly and open. Answered all questions. Was quick to reply to e-mails and phone calls. Made the process so much smoother than previous experiences with other agents, including not making me feel like I was not worth much time and effort because I wasn't purchasing either a million dollar property or investment property. He kept me informed throughout the whole process and made the effort to fit into my busy schedule to get things done. Refreshing change to how things are usually done. Would and have recommended him on to others.

Great job by Rick Gilchrist

Rick did an amazing job in selling our house in Musselburgh. He gave timely and honest advice and achieved a price we were very happy with. Rick also went above and beyond to make sure the house sold.

Fantastic result

Rick was amazing, he appraised our property, listened to our requests for an off market sale and got a fantastic result. We couldn't be happier.

Rick was supreme in giving us feedback and keeping us informed throughout the sales process.

Rick lead us through the marketing and sales strategy to achieve the best outcome for us as his clients. He liaised with our tenants, navigated the tenants dog as well. Also Rick did the odd job to make sure the property presented at its best. Where Rick excelled was in the negotiations phase of the deadline treaty. He informed all parties about the process and was able to not only get us the best price possible for our property, but an excellent back up offer was in the wings if the accepted offer fell over. We would recommend Rick to anyone who values honest hard work and wants an agent who will go the extra mile for their client.

Proactive and Trustworthy

We recently purchased our first home through Rick having dealt with him previously for an unsuccessful offer. As the home was a silent listing, Rick took the time to reach out to us personally and gave us the opportunity to view the property and make an offer without the competition of the current market. Throughout the process Rick was easy to communicate with, had knowledge of the property when required, negotiated positively for both parties and ensured that we were well informed every step of the way. Given that we had never been through the process before we felt safe entrusting our offer to Rick and the outcome was a great success for all parties involved. We are so pleased with the house and glad that Rick was able to help seal the deal for us! We would definitely recommend and encourage anyone who is looking to buy, or sell, to speak with Rick - he certainly surpassed our expectations of an agent!

Warm, professional and dedicated

Rick was warm, friendly and professional. He was informative, and went the extra mile during and even after the process. We felt confident that we made the right decision and couldn't be happier in our new home. We would feel very confident having Rick as our Agent when we sell.

Excellent, Excellent result

Rick was extremely professional and knowledgable regarding marketing my property. He did his homework regarding price and target market. A quick very good sale was the result. I especially liked his approach to fees with no hidden costs. I would have no hesitation in recommending him to anyone who wishes to sell their property in the Waitaki District. Cheers and thanks

Total Dedication, Utmost Professionalism, Unbelievable Result!

When it came time to sell my home I approached Rick to come and give his recommendation on what needed to be done to in order to market it for the best result. His advice was absolutely 100% on the mark and as a direct result of Rick’s marketing strategy, his absolute professionalism and dedication to selling my house and going far more than that extra mile, Rick brought about a result that I simply could not have dreamed of, all inside one week of being listed. If you’re looking for an agent that will truly work for you, and an agent that is 100% totally committed to bringing you the best result then please, forget all the other so-called “agents” and just give Rick a call. Even though my house is a former state house, he gave it every inch the same respect and attention to detail as you’d see for a much more expensive house. Can’t thank him enough for what he’s done.

Great Place, Greater Agent

From the moment we arrived for the open home we were greeted by Rick’s smile and confident personality and even though it was a busy open home Rick made the time to talk with us and answer our questions in detail. His follow up after the open home was extremely professional and made us feel that we weren’t just potential tyre kickers. When it came time to make an offer his guidance through the whole process was absolutely outstanding, Rick really went the extra mile and then some, and then some more. His communication is second to none, every step of the way we were kept fully informed and now, with all thanks to Rick we will be moving to our new home soon. We couldn’t be any happier with our decision and in our dealings with Rick.
