Simone was always efficient and professional with awesome tips, advice and super encouraging throughout the time. She was always approachable with any queries I had and very considerate and understanding of the emotions involved in selling a family home. Her communication skills were impeccable too! Simone and Jill made such an awesome working duo and I would very highly recommend them. Thanks Simone for all your hard work and support leading to such a great result with the sale of my home.

Simone’s calm and confident manner was evident from the time we met at the open home through to putting out the sold sign. With her co-agent Jill, she made the whole experience of buying a house through Harcourts an enjoyable and productive time for everybody.

Working with Simone and Jill was a total game-changer. What truly sets them apart is their hands-on approach; they didn't just give advice, they jumped right in to help with decluttering and readying the house for sale. Their communication is second to none and they are very proactive in their approach. If you want agents who aren’t afraid to do the hard work to get you the best price, Simone and Jill are the best. I wouldn’t use anyone else.

Great experience working alongside Simone . Communication was clear and consistent throughout the whole process, Their negotiation skills helped us achieve a great outcome even when there were technical issues, they were professional, reliable, and easy to deal with from start to finish. Highly recommend!

I couldn’t have asked for a better experience selling my Pōkeno property in the Waikato region with Jill McLean and Simone Keven from Harcourts Pukekohe. My home went to market on 23 January 2026 and was sold and settled by 6 March, an incredible result that exceeded my expectations. Their persistence with advertising and regular open homes generated strong interest and ultimately led to a quick and successful sale. As I’m based in Australia, communication was incredibly important, and Jill and Simone were outstanding. They kept me informed every step of the way and made the entire process feel easy and stress-free. Both Jill and Simone were professional, supportive, and genuinely warm — it felt like working with friends rather than agents. As this was my first time selling a property, they made it an amazing experience. I would highly recommend them to anyone selling in Pukekohe or the wider Waikato area.

We had a great experience working with Jill and Simone. They are so professional, approachable and genuinely supportive in getting the best possible outcome. We were informed at every step of the process, which made us less stressed, even though it was our first home purchase.

We found Simone working in partnership with Jill efficient and careful Good advise re different areas and always listening She made the final steps in signing very clear when using Docu to sign over the web She was always available to help re queries which were answered promptly Her manner made it an enjoyable journey in choosing our home

Great market knowledge, excellent communication, very personable supportive & understanding of our situation

Simone was one of many agents I spoke with before deciding to sell my house and the first one to visit me at home. I immediately liked her communication style,a straight talker-not fake. We are close in age so share similar values/interests. Being born & bred in Pukekohe, her knowledge of the town and its people is awesome. She also showed a genuine interest in my goals/needs and got to work on a tailored strategy to reach them. Over the following 3months,she was amazing & honestly worked her tail off!! From helping me prep the house by washing all exterior& interior windows (*with her own hose+products!) Sacrificing quality family & her own time focusing on getting more interested buyers via increased open homes/private viewings, utilising her network of contacts/local buyers when necessary, always hustling on th phone/in person w all relevant parties. She adapted quickly to the changes/challenges we faced, addressing any of my concerns promptly. From start to finish,I especially admired Simone's clear & consistent communication which kept me well informed on any & everything! March 7 we finally got there yayyy!!! And we couldn't be happier lol A huge thank you again for taking this ride with me Simone! Im grateful to have met and entrusted you throughout this journey! Your kindness, conscientious nature and dedication will ensure a bright future ahead and the Harcourts Pukekohe team are very lucky to have you x😊 All the best to you & your whanau Arohanui, Tawa

She was very pleasurable to deal with, knowledge and experience excellent to us. She went far and beyond what we expected. She explained everything that we didn't understand, including the terms and conditions and the staging of the property, which was unknown to us before this. She kept us fully informed in every step, with the process, including all the open homes, meetings and sale conditions.

This `Sale had a long lead-in before we activated due process . During that time, Simone was my eye, my ear , my driver and always available with excellent product knowledge & processes to get me to the finishing line , successfully finding the Buyer. What more could this reluctant Vendor ask for. She made the whole process easier by her physical involvement, her energy, enthusiasm & drive to get all in place and ready. Without all the above this property would not have achieved the "Best Price" Sincerest Best Wishes for your future Simone. Signed MRB1LL.

Working with Simone, from the moment we saw the house to getting all the paperwork sorted, everything was so straightforward. Simone made the process easy and often thought of things before we did. I cannot recommend her highly enough for her commitment to selling the property. Simone is also incredibly down to earth and easy to talk with while navigating the house buying process.
