We were referred to Steve by friends of ours who engaged Steve to sell their place recently. He is very clearly an experienced agent who was always ready to answer any concerns or queries we had. At the same time he was constantly in touch with us to offer guidance and support throughout the process. He was always a very pleasant person to deal with along each step of the way. We can thoroughly recommend him.
Steve went above and beyond to sell our house in a tricky climate and complicated situation. His communication, integrity and kindness helped the process run smoother than otherwise possible. Forever grateful for Steve going above and beyond. Look forward to working with him again in the future.
We recently sold our second house with Steve Cotter, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience. The market was incredibly tough, and we knew achieving the full purchase price might not be possible. However, Steve's patience, guidance, and incredible expertise helped us navigate these challenges successfully. Thanks to his persistence and deep knowledge of the market, we managed to sell our house at a price close to what we had hoped for, despite the current conditions. We truly appreciate your efforts, Steve, and thank you from the bottom of our hearts!
I knew we were not selling at an optimum time. Steve guided us through the process of presenting the house to the market in the best possible light. He was thoroughly professional throughout, presenting stats to us in a form that we could understand. He stayed in contact, and I really enjoyed working with him. On the deadline date he met with us, presented the options and let us make the decision. At no time did I feel that we were being coerced. A great man to work with. Yes, I would recommend him.
Steve had an effective balance of attentiveness and giving us space when we were looking around the property. He was welcoming and on hand to answer questions or provide information, but didn’t feel the need to follow us around or bombard us with info like some agents do. This approach was evident in any follow up communication too. If we ever had questions he couldn’t answer, he was transparent in telling us he wasn’t sure but he would be sure to follow up to find out. His communication was always timely and he was open with us about how he thought things were going e.g. what the vendors were hoping for, how the market was trending, aspects of the property that made it different. During the period where the house was under contract, he remained in contact and was quick to answer any queries or address concerns. He was also really helpful with navigating any required paperwork. Overall, Steve was a pleasure to work with and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him to others.
We had a very quick and satisfactory result on the sale of our mothers property, the follow up has been excellent, we have known exactly what the situation has been all the way through the process, with immediate feedback and updates at every stage. Thank you very much, thoroughly recommend.
I first met Steve when he successfully sold my neighbour’s property for a record price a few years ago. He’s an expert on the local Muriwai market, and had fantastic advice from staging, to presentation and strategy - even rolling up his own sleeves to help declutter ensuring the photos were completely perfect! The marketing, sales strategy and processes he recommended were executed perfectly to ensuring we were completely confident we had found our best buyer for our Muriwai home - and an exceptional price. No mean feat in this challenging market. Steve’s an amazing communicator, totally professional, always friendly and I always felt confident my home was in the best of hands. It’s also meant this whole process has been seamless and stress free. If anyone is thinking about selling, and only want the best - I would definitely recommend Steve.
Steve Cotter is a surprise real estate person!! We are amazed at his alerting us to buying a property that ticked all the boxes for our expectations. He was spot on, quick and ready to launch out in an off market situation on our behalf. We trusted him with our decision to place an offer that was accepted almost immediately. He is very professional and goes the extra mile to keep us happy. We have great pleasure in recommending Steve Cotter for all times to come. He is a top gun and true friend to us. We wish him well in his career. God Bless Steve.
Steve ran a great process, was open and transparent with us throughout, communicated with us frequently as to where our offer sat, and ultimately worked hard between us and the vendor to ensure a happy outcome for all.
I want to extend my heartfelt thanks to Steve for his exceptional service in getting the sale across the line. Despite the challenging market conditions, Steve provided sound advice and maintained excellent communication throughout the process. His professionalism and dedication were key to the successful outcome, and I couldn’t be more pleased with the service I received.
Steve did an awesome job selling our first house in 2021 so when we were ready to sell our most recent home, there was no other person we would trust more to handle the sale. Nothing has changed and we still cannot recommend him highly enough! In a challenging market where selling a home seemed daunting, he not only secured a good price for our house but also guided us with patience and professionalism every step of the way. Steve did an excellent job in managing our expectations, making sure we were well-informed and comfortable with each decision. If you’re looking for someone who is knowledgeable, supportive, and truly invested in your success, Steve is the one to call!
Steve knew how the market was at the time and considering it was a buyers market I was frustrated with the negotiations. We were going back and forth and at one point I was called a grumpy buyer and that all parties were grieving. I didn't understand the concept of conversation. I felt what we offered was the right price bit maybe the sellers were not being realistic and it wasn't Steve's fault. I guess he is guided by the sellers. The first offer we put on paper was eventuallly accepted and I believe this would have been an easy transition if was accepted on the first occasion. We got there in the end and I look forward to putting my stamp on thr property.
