Trident High School runs a building programme - ATT (Allied Trades Training) which we renovate a house. This is the second year we have been running this programme. Sharnika approached the school as she was aware of the programme through media publications. Both myself and the principal - Mikaere October were pretty blown away by her offer of advertising the house for sale via The Northern Group, One Roof and Trade Me all free of charge! The amazing team from The Northern Group team visited and professional photos were taken. These were shared online where we had amazing numbers visit the sites. During this time Sharnika kept us informed about any potential buyers with great communication all the way along our journey, she was very professional and friendly to deal with. As the ATT programme is a school run project we really appreciated all the time and effort that Sharnika put in, we would like to acknowledge her community spirit as all her services were free of charge. I would highly recommend Sharnika and The Northern Group Real Estate, they are community minded and care about their clients. Sharnika sold the house to a local couple so we are pleased the ATT House is staying in Whakatane.

The thing that drew me to Sharnika was her energy and enthusiasm for the opportunity to list my property and that same energy and enthusiasm carried through the whole process. Thank you so much for your hard work and helping me get a fantastic result.

Sharnika was exceptional throughout my entire sale process. Her communication was clear and consistent, and her dedication and commitment were truly impressive. She went above and beyond to achieve a good sale result for me, especially given the current market conditions. I couldn’t be happier with her professionalism and support — Thanks Sharnika

Sharnika was great with communication and worked hard to get a great outcome. Obtained an offer and did the extra work to get a back up offer also. I would recommend her - thanks Sharnika.

Selling our home in Ohope with Sharnika was an absolute pleasure.
