Sidd, we are so thankful to have you as our agent! To start with, you explained the process in detail and made a plan of how we are going to sell & then buy a house within a short but comfortable period of time. You gave us affordable and beneficial home improvement ideas to present our home the best way we could. We stuck to the marketing calendar and our house was sold within 3 weeks of listing it! Next part of the journey was looking for a house, you were very patient with all our specifications and took us to viewings of ones that met our requirements. You helped not just to find a beautiful home and also through all the process to purchase it! All within a period of a month! Thank you for being transparent, patient, approachable every step of the way & always available whenever we needed any of our questions answered! Thank you again!

I appreciate the manner in which Sidd handled my property dealings and would highly recommend him for such services/property deals. He had an exceptional professional & polite approach towards me, which I have not experienced before in a salesperson. Sidd was pushed to the limits by my demands of handling the property deals, despite of which he remained the same, rather handled it more patiently. I would definitely recommend Sidd for handling any of my friend’s property any time and would like to thank him for the way he has handled my property. Many thanks Sidd.

Thank you for the time, effort, and patience in the selling of my property at Milford, Auckland.  When I think of the work you did three “C”s come to my mind: care, communication, competence. It all went perfectly well and as per planned timeline for the house to sell exceeding our expectations. Thanks to your professionalism and thoroughness. It was truly impressive. You personally took interest & got involved in every aspect of property sale (Care).  Since we are based overseas you kept us constantly informed with every movement & step of sale providing regular & frequent feedback (communication), I was well informed each step (right from initial briefing prior listing to the day of auction) of the property sale with accurate information (competence). You had thorough understanding of wider area knowledge, current market movements and vendor as well as buyer’s expectations & worked extremely well throughout the Marketing campaign keeping everyone engaged at all the time.  In short it was A “Total peace of mind Package” for vendors living overseas. I have absolutely no problem recommending you to any of my family, friends and acquaintances when it comes to selling the house.

After looking at many properties and dealing with many agents, it was great to come across Sidd. Sidd was professional, proactive and transparent throughout the process, ensuring that all relevant property information became available before having to ask and we were always kept up to date without feeling hassled.  Sidd clearly cares about the experience of his vendors and prospective buyers.

Sidd and his team recently guided us through the process of selling our house at auction. While we have bought and sold properties before, this was our first auction experience. At every step of the process, Sidd took care to explain the requirements, implications and decisions required, while pitching things at a level that recognised our prior knowledge. We found Sidd to be very genuine, knowledgeable, personable and highly effective. Overall, he was fantastic to deal with and genuinely worked to achieve the best outcome for us. His communication skills are excellent, and we appreciated the opportunity to discuss things as they arose, so there were no surprises. The whole process ran very smoothly, especially considering we live in another city to which the property was being sold. Sidd and his team have done a great job. We were most impressed by their considered guidance, attention to detail, responsiveness and follow through, and efforts to keep us in the loop with buyer interest and feedback. We also had a positive experience in dealing with the auctioneer, Sam Walmsley, and really appreciated how the Harcourts team worked together on auction day to manage the process, numerous bidders and our role as the seller. A great result was achieved. We highly recommend Sidd and his team at Harcourts, and we would definitely work with them again should the opportunity arise.

We dealt with Sidd when selling a property we had tried selling one year earlier but failed to do so. Sidd had 3 offers on the table and the property sold within 2 weeks. The entire process was smooth and clear communication throughout. We would recommend Sidd to anyone looking to sell their property.

We must say Pauline and Sidd that it has been a pleasure working with you both. You were exactly what we were looking for in agents - you listened to what we had to say and were genuinely interested in achieving the result we were seeking. You are both effective communicators and your combined sales expertise and efforts were superior. We were impressed with your competence, humility, integrity and grace. It is gratifying to meet two people so dedicated to doing an exceptional job. Your efforts are sincerely appreciated. We also want to take this opportunity of thanking Sam for his fantastic efforts on the day. Although we only met you briefly before the auction, your efforts were outstanding, and you definitely worked hard to achieve the best possible result from the bidders. Your professionalism, enthusiasm and drive hold you in good stead, and we wish you all the very best in your career as an outstanding auctioneer. Thank you.

Huge thank you to Sidd & Pauline from Harcourts Takapuna for helping me buy my home - so good to deal with that you make the entire process seem too easy! I have used Harcourts for both the sale of my house a year ago and now re-entering the market to buy my ‘first home’ again. There is a stigma around real estate agents being untrustworthy, but I can honestly say that Sidd, Pauline and the Harcourts team always went out of their way and acted with my best interests at heart to deliver everything that was important to me (first as a seller, and second time as a buyer). I couldn’t have asked for a better team to work with, and I will never go through anyone else when dealing with future property transactions. (They put together a pretty good hamper too!) Sincerest thanks guys, very grateful!

My wife, Yoko and me, recently sold a house in Auckland. As we are remotely located in overseas and our house was tenanted, we did have some worrisome for marketing and maximizing exposure to prospective buyers. We did partner with Pauline Dudasova and Sidd Akshar and the rest was pretty much easy. Pauline and Sidd have been extremely helpful and went extra miles for us as they knew we can not do anything by ourselves as we were not presented in Auckland. They have made a very successful strategy with details marketing plan and walked us through, step by step and made the process easy. At the end they successfully managed to get the best dollar for our house and achieve the best results. We will not hesitate to recommend them to friends and family in the future and will be happy to get help from them for our future Real Estate adventure.

Thank you for you gentle persistence in selling our property at 27 Ewen Street. The property was not formally placed onto the market and therefore a normal marketing/promotional campaign wasn’t able to be carried out. The reason you got the property was due to you proactively seeking properties in the area and your approach. The process has taken time was noninvasive to us and fitted in with our approach of “if we get the right offer the the property is for sale” which is true for a lot of properties. We have appreciated that you also took a gentle but formal approach in achieving a good end result always being courteous and mindful of our wishes. The end result has been good for all parties both us and the purchaser and I hope they enjoy living here as much as we have over many years. Again thank you for being patient and achieving a positive outcome for all and I look forward to further transactions with you in the near future

The process of property buying and selling has the potential to be stressful. However, Sidd makes the journey incredibly easy and seamless. What we value the most about Sidd as an agent is the effort he takes to understand his clients. This means that he arrives at the desired outcome for with minimal involvement required from clients. He guides us along the way and ensures we also learn through the process and make informed decisions. Highly recommend engaging Sidd’s expertise – he is fantastic to work with and truly cares about arriving at the optimal outcome for his clients!

Sidd was a pleasure to work with throughout the whole process of purchasing my house. Not only did he understand what the Seller and the Purchaser wanted but he was also communicative, friendly, and reliable. Always quick to help when we have any troubles, and he is a sincere person who tries his best to help whenever I have any questions and requests on my purchase – thank you.
