As an agent working in the marketplace, I understand the importance of investing in good advertising, and I wasn’t afraid to spend the dollars, and what I learned from Sam was that it’s not just enough to ‘throw loads of money at it’, it’s very important where the money is spent. He wasn’t afraid to challenge on me on my advertising choices and pushed me to take it up a notch in some areas, and the result was that our home stood well and truly out from the competition, in fact it was multiple levels above the competition and has thought me a lot in the process. The campaign was very smooth and to get an unconditional sale for a bloody great price, after only 20 days on the market is a testament to the hard work Sam puts in for his clients. He works very hard and leaves no stone unturned in pursuit of the best result, highly recommended, he’s going to go far in this industry and Harcourts should do whatever’s required to keep him from getting any ideas of going elsewhere!

I know most agents usually run once the deals unconditional, but your certainly a cut above the rest. Even the wife said how helpful you have been. We really Appreciate the help and advice you have given and continue to give us through this whole process with us looking at new properties

As out of town vendors unfamiliar with the Christchurch real estate market we will be forever grateful for all Sam did to ensure a successful outcome. From initial inquiry through to signed sale agreement Sam's focus preparing the property for sale, the marketing plan and the sale process was exceptional. Sam had all the contacts necessary to address the preparation required including identifying and liaising with tradespeople, cleaners and stagers. The marketing plan and content were to point, not overstated but bringing to the fore the best of the property. The actual marketing was extensive and effective. In our engagement with Sam, he has been without doubt professional and knowledgeable in all respects but for us it has been Sam's commitment to communication that has stood out. With just two in person meetings before auction and everything else by email, text and phone, Sam made it his focus to keep us well informed and involved. We always felt he listened to us, responding to questions we have had and any potential concerns, been sure we have felt briefed on the process and the requirements, not afraid to raise 'issues' with us, has managed expectations and always positive and with a smile. Great job Sam, very satisfied clients, we would not hesitate to engage you again or to recommend you to others. All the very best for your career.

I had an outstanding experience working with Sam as my real estate agent. From the start, he was incredibly available and attentive, always ready to help with any questions I had. What truly stood out was his genuine interest in helping me find my dream home. Even though the process took longer than expected, Sam maintained his drive and enthusiasm throughout, ensuring I felt supported every step of the way. His accommodation to my needs was remarkable, making the journey as enjoyable and stress-free as possible. I can’t recommend Sam enough for anyone looking to buy a home!

Sam was proactive and kept me informed through the whole sales process. He worked hard to achieve the sales price and also did a great job building a relationship with my tenant to ensure viewings went smoothly. Happy to recommend

Sam is a passionate and knowledgeable agent who provided valuable help to make this purchase possible!

I’m very thankful for his work as our agent in helping our family purchase the house. His been really kind and helpful all throughout.

We had been looking in the area for some time and had been unsuccesful in making an offer on another property, we saw this property and contacted Sam who responded very quickly and showed us the property at short notice and giving us all the information we needed to be able to put an offer together quickly, with clear communication between us and the vendors

Sam did an amazing job from start to finish. Sam saw us go from tears to absolute joy and got us an amazing result. Sam’s knowledge, drive, humour, attention to detail and punctuality did not alter from day one. If we ever sold again, I would not hesitate in choosing to working with Sam. We have not only walked away with a great sale, but a great new friend. Well done again Sam.

Thank Sam We knew going into the sale of Blackbird way that we were entering a challenging market in a challenging sales cycle. Sam came up with a unique Priced Deadline sales methodology, that proved to deliver the results. Throughout the process, Sam helped guide the sale in the right direction but was always open to our feedback and ideas, and used these to shape the sales process. He was a great communicator and we always felt in the loop at every step. I would certainly not hesitate to use Sam in the future and have recommended him to others already. Cheers

I had the pleasure of working with Sam to purchase my new dream home. Sam’s approach throughout the process (including the deadline process) was proactive and professional. I am very thankful for Sam’s guidance and honestly throughout the process and I highly recommend Sam to anyone looking to buy a home.

We can't recommend Sam enough as a buyers agent. He eased our anxiety during the daunting process, always responded promptly, and handled everything with professionalism and care. No question was too silly for him; he supported us with insights we wouldn't have known otherwise and took care of all the liaising behind the scenes. In just four days—from viewing the house to auction—Sam proved himself to be a true legend. His expertise and support, especially his champion performance at the auction, made a significant difference in our experience as first home buyers. If you're looking for a top-notch agent, Sam is your guy!
