Excellent experience from start to end

Excellent experience from start to end

We could not have been happier with Sonia Dufty from start to finish in our purchase journey. What could have been a complicated and stressful process, particularly with the body corporate and a number of other complexities along the way, was made so much easier because of Sonia’s calm, professional and genuinely caring approach. From the very beginning, Sonia was incredibly responsive and always available when we needed her. She never once made us feel pressured or rushed into making a decision. Instead, she gave us the space and confidence to work through things at our own pace, while always being there with guidance and support when we needed it. What really stood out was how resourceful and relentless Sonia was in finding answers to our questions. Whenever something came up that needed clarification or further investigation, she went the extra mile to get the information we needed and kept us informed throughout the process. Nothing ever seemed like too much trouble. Most importantly, we genuinely built a strong sense of trust and connection with Sonia throughout the journey. We always felt that she understood what was important to us and was genuinely invested in helping us achieve the outcome we wanted, rather than simply trying to get a transaction over the line. We would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Sonia to anyone looking for an agent. She was exceptional to deal with, and we are extremely grateful for everything she did for us.

Nothing short of exceptional

Nothing short of exceptional

We were on the buy side with Sonia and dealt with her on two properties. She was incredibly professional, genuine and proactive. We found her a delight to deal with and breath of fresh air which is rare with real estate agents especially on buy side matters. We are delighted with the house we purchased from Sonia and she went above and beyond to make sure everything was smooth even after moving in. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Sonia to anyone looking to sell their home and she’s one of the best agents I have ever met. Thanks Sonia.

Above and beyond!

Above and beyond!

Sonia was amazing in every way. She knows the industry and the area very well, and guided me with the finer details of putting my house in the best position for sale. Sonia understood which areas were worth investing in (such as garden tidy, some landscaping and staging), taking great care with tiny details which she knew would make prospective buyers see themselves living there. She went the 'extra mile' and would do a quick rake of the leaves or wiping down entry gates as I was no longer living in the area. I was fortunate to also hit the market during sunny summer days where the house was drenched in sunlight! I cannot thank Sonia enough for her assistance and professionalism and highly recommend her for your property sale.

Genuine operator

Sonia was a wonderful agent to deal with while we were searching for our “forever home”. Unlike some other agents, she genuinely listened to and understood our needs and what we were looking for (which were quite particular!) She was proactive and genuine in her interactions with us, and once we were successful in purchasing she maintained contact through the settlement process keeping us well up to date of progress. Couldn’t have asked for a better person to deal with on our purchasing journey. Thank you Sonia!

Professional, knowledgeable, attentive and patient

Sonia's communication skills and attention to detail are second to none. She dealt with all aspects of our sale with a professional manner and was always very timely in her dealings. The sales plan she suggested was exactly right to achieve a good result and we were kept in the loop right through the process.

THis agent cares about you as well as selling your house

THis agent cares about you as well as selling your house

At first meeting I was very impressed with Sonia's professionalism. She was very careful and thorough especially about disclosure (important to all Aucklanders after Anniversary weekend flooding!). She led me through this process as well as the staging (which I was initially against) but once done, was superb. Because I was under pressure to sell I also appreciated the fact that Sonia sensed my stress and went out of her way to bring me some nice cooked food. She also provided excellent photos of the property and regular feedback on potential buyers. Altogether Sonia is very open, professional, and caring. I recommend her highly (11/10)

A true professional

We first met Sonia three years ago and have seen her in action as an agent in a number of different listings over that period when we were house hunting ourselves. We have always been impressed with Sonia's ability to connect with buyers, her professionalism and her knowledge of the market. She was a natural choice when we decided to list our own property. Sonia provided exceptional advice from the moment we considered listing, and was fantastic at ensuring we presented our house to its full potential. She is extremely generous with her time and was always willing to discuss our options in depth. Sonia took the time to learn everything she could about our home in order to be able to share with potential purchasers. Sonia ran an excellent campaign for us - open homes were very well attended and we received multiple offers shortly after going to market. Sonia kept us well informed throughout and we were delighted with the outcome of the campaign. We are very pleased to recommend Sonia as an agent.

Couldn’t have asked for better

I feel very lucky to have had Sonia as my agent and honestly couldn’t have asked for better. She is super knowledgeable, experienced, helpful, organised and just a lovely person to deal with. I am super stoked with my new house and wouldn’t be in it without her. Thanks so much Sonia!

Out of this world..a real champion

When my wife and I put our home on the market, we interviewed several Estate Agents. The first few we met with were very middling. But the minute Sonia checked in we knew we had a champion! All our anxieties were allayed..all our children were very impressed..she was always there to, metaphorically, hold our hand throughout the whole process
