Rick was always willing to make himself available to talk. Our communication flowed well even on points of differing opinion with the ultimate goal to find solutions we could agree on. Rick showed a great depth of experience and market insight but unfortunately he's not quite a miracle worker - he did everything he could under tough circumstances and persevered in a dedicated and professional manner. I most appreciated that Rick was patient and allowed me reach decisions about our sale strategy without pressuring. I highly recommend Rick for anyone wanting a down to earth, straight shooting salesman.

Rick has been a great partner to work with in the selling of our property. He's been diligent, consultative, and professional in all aspects of the process. Having Rick's knowledge of the selling process has been fantastic, as it's not something most people do 'every day'.

Rick has been direct and up front everything right from the start. He was really on to it in terms of finding interested buyers for my house; very professional and communication was impeccable. I knew I made the right choice with Tall Poppy.

Mum and I were so beyond happy with the thoughtfulness Rick showed all throughout the house selling process. After spending 61 years in the same home and at 94 it was at first overwhelming for Noleen but he guided her with great care and consideration. Each step was explained at her level of understanding without seeming condescending and she felt very supported. We would highly recommend Rick as both a trustworthy and knowledgeable agent.

Rick made the process easy and relaxed on his end, good communication and responses. Thank you for the help to obtain our first home

Rick walked us through the process with the skill of a professional, arranged the photography, signage and brochure and launched the sale of our home with no fuss or delay. He kept us informed of online analytics and open home attendees regularly. As a result of Ricks work, we secured a sale on our property in short order and we are thrilled our home will become the new home for a family who will love it as much as we have. Rick made the process easy, was friendly and reliable. We would definitely recommend Rick and Tall Poppy to any would be vendor.

It's been a pleasure to work with Rick Stevens from Tall Poppies. He gave good no nonsense advice, always kept me up to date with how things were going, understood the market variables and in particular how best to sell my property. As an out of town seller, there were details that I couldn't follow through on but he sorted them out, knew who to contact and even did the odd job himself. It was great to get a satisfactory sale in a reasonable timeframe. Very many thanks! Eleanor

Rick was thorough in his research and gave practical and honest views. It was refreshing to deal with someone transparent and who worked together with you taking the time to talk through options. He kept me informed at every stage and has a wealth of experience and knowledge in the market. Highly recommend him, thank you Rick, it has been a pleasure having you working on getting us our sale.

We sold our investment property through our agent Rick Stevens from Tall Poppy. We understand that it is not Rick’s usual responsibility to organise for the repairs of the property as a real estate agent when selling a property. Since neither of us resides in Auckland, and due to the alert level restrictions at the time, Rick took on the responsibility to act on our behalf in the interim to find tradesmen and organise them to do the necessary repair works. He made what could have been a difficult process as stress-free as possible. Rick’s professionalism, knowledge, honesty, integrity are very much appreciated.

Straight up and down taking control of a complex and bureaucratically enforced difficult real estate environment. Rick managed the process exceptionally well considering the enforced restrictions of an extended lock-down environment. He did well and I appreciate his honesty and forthright manner. Thank you Rick.

Rick has been a dream to work with through this whole process. He worked collaboratively from beginning to end showing a high degree of insight, professionalism and respect. Communication was outstanding and nothing was too small to discuss. Any questions I had were answered fully and he used his expertise to guide me through the process so we were on the same page and achieved an outstanding result. Clearly motivated to work with and for the vendor. I would highly recommend the use of his remarkable services.

We found Rick amazing to work with. Not being familiar with selling a home in NZ he took us through it. His advise was right on the mark and we sold for more than expected. Thanks You
