Sarah has been very professional in her dealings with the entire selling process. She is knowledgeable about the market and her estimates and advise were realistic and honest with the current market trend. I would highly recommend Sarah to anyone intending to buy or sell property in the region. I cannot thank you enough Sarah for all your patience and understanding. All the best for the future in your career.
Sarah gave excellent service as we worked through the process of choosing a property especially as we were buying from another town. We were able to view the property when we could be in Whakatane Sarah answered our questions promptly and went the extra mile getting appropriate information from a council officer. Sarah provided access for my sister at a time that worked for her schedule. She has facilitated the process of enabling us to purchase items of furniture and furnishings from the house We would recommend Sarah, without hesitation, to other people buying or selling property in Whakatane
Sarah was extremely knowledgeable about the current real estate climate and the best method in which to sell our house. She both advised me and recommended strategies that would best attract buyers. Sarah was easy to work with and I would highly recommend her to anyone wanting to get the best possible price for their house. The cherry on top was that Sarah negotiated a higher price than we asked. Thank Sarah for making this difficult time, an easy and enjoyable experience.
Sarah’s non pushy, quiet , competent, getting to know her clients needs style is integrated with her highly professional ability and focus on the goal. Without hesitation we recommend her to sellers and purchasers.
Sarah's communication and support throughout the sale of our house was outstanding. From the first meet to settlement and everything in between we felt. Sarah is very professional but in a comforting and relaxing way which helped to make our decision with choosing her as our agent. Would 110% use Sarah again.
Sarah made our home purchasing easy. Sarah provided us excellent and timely communication. Her practical approach helped us to get extra peace of mind, worked with our availability, and answered everything that we asked. In our experience, Sarah had been proactive, professional yet friendly and warm, which made our home-buying a pleasant and memorable experience right from the beginning to “sold”.
If you are considering getting advice for buying or selling your home, Sarah is absolutely the person you want to see. We are first home buyers, and Sarah was incredibly understanding of our situation and did everything she possibly could to find us a home within our price range and home requirements. At no point did I ever feel pressured or out of my comfort zone, despite us constantly not knowing what direction we were heading in! She had her work cut out for her for sure, but she persevered with us and we are incredibly grateful. Sarah was incredibly knowledgeable about the local area, and understood the our desired area and what we were looking for and paired with her insane knowledge of the industry, she absolutely set us up in the best possible position to be able to buy a home. In this particular instance, we went to auction and at every single (stressful!) step Sarah assisted us. From the initial notification of upcoming homes in the area to the final signature of purchase, she was there. Should we ever sell our home or look at purchasing another, Sarah will for sure be the person that we contact. All we can say is thank you Sarah. Thank you thank you thank you. We will be forever grateful for you in helping get us into our very first home
Sarah Frater was our agent and worked with us over a long period of time helping us to find a property to buy as well as advising us on the best way to sell our existing property. She was totally professional throughout the process and as far as we have experienced before, went beyond what we would have thought was acceptable! Her communication with us was excellent keeping us informed every step of the way….a lovely friendly personality but professional at the same time and honest! By the time we went to list our property the market had changed considerably however her advice as to how to sell our property was spot on!! The tender process was straight forward and we had a SOLD sign up in a matter of just a few weeks! The best Christmas present ever!! We have already recommended Sarah to other people looking to buy or sell!! Thankyou Properly Brokers….a great success all round!
Sarah Frater has been an absolute gem in helping my wife and sister (whom live in Wellington and Australia) sell a beautiful little home inherited from their late parents. We were unable to be present to oversee renovations prior to the sale and Sarah had contractors lined up to begin work almost as soon as our tenants moved out. Bathroom renovation, general repairs, painting, water blasting, house washing and carpet replacement all managed by Sarah. We definitely recommend her and would use her services again. Ka pai, Ka kite and thank you Sarah!!
We are extremely happy to have entrusted Sarah with the sale of our family home in Whakatane. Sarah did a remarkable job in marketing our property and bringing in potential buyers. We really appreciated her knowledge and guidance throughout the process. She kept us well informed and nothing was too much trouble. Sarah went above and beyond and organised everything to prepare the house for sale including property styling, cleaning and maintenance to ensure we got the best outcome. Sarah achieved an amazing result well above our expectations. She is caring and professional and we would highly recommend her to any potential sellers.
Sarah outlined the process undertaken with a Deadline sale, she kept us informed and let us know when it turned into a multi offer situation. Sarah was proactive and told us about the issue with the hot water cylinder and organised for this to be fixed as soon as practical. It was a great experience from our perspective. BTW: Nice touch having a Barista at the first open home :)
Sarah was so easy to deal with. Communication was amazing. down to earth. highly recommend!
