6 Star Service and Professionalism

6 Star Service and Professionalism

I cannot recommend Sue and Owen from Barfoot and Thompson, Manurewa, highly enough. Selling my family home in Weymouth, Auckland, while living across the Tasman in Sydney could have been an incredibly stressful experience, however Sue and Owen made the entire process seamless and worry-free. From day one, their communication and knowledge was outstanding. Despite the distance, I was kept informed at every single step of the marketing and sale process. They truly went above and beyond when we faced a challenging situation nearing settlement. They both stepped in with incredible professionalism, problem-solving, and calm reassurance to ensure everything settled smoothly and on time. If you are looking for dedicated, trustworthy, and hardworking real estate agents in South Auckland don’t hesitate to contact them. Thank you so much, Sue and Owen.

A great team from start to finish

A great team from start to finish

From the initial property appraisal, through to the expert advice and guidance provided on the various marketing options, and ultimately the final sale, Sue & Owens support was very much appreciated. They listened to us and were very patient, particularly as we are older citizens, taking the time to explain the process clearly and answer our questions. They are a great team and did a fabulous job of presenting our home in a positive light, with professional photographs, drone footage and well-written supporting text. They also kept us regularly informed of progress throughout the sale process, which ultimately resulted in a very pleasing outcome. I would highly recommend Sue and Owen to any prospective sellers.

Sue and Owen were amazing from the first interaction I had with them. They did a wonderful 3 week campaign. Property was sold on Deadline sale date. Sue kept in touch on a regular basis with me as I didn't live in the area. Highly recommend.

Exceptional service, highly recommend!

A massive thank you to Sue and Owen for helping us sell our property, choosing them was the best decision we made. This was our first time selling and they were both professional, incredibly knowledgeable and a pleasure to work with. We had some personal and unexpected issues thrown our way but their genuinely caring and approachable nature put us at ease throughout the entire process. We couldn't be happier with the great result!!

Sue and Owen were professional, honest, and supportive throughout the entire process. They kept us informed every step of the way, communicated clearly, and worked hard to get our property sold. Selling a house can be stressful, but they made the process much smoother with their experience, patience, and dedication. We really appreciated their guidance and the effort they put into achieving a successful sale. Thank you, Sue and Owen, for all your hard work. We truly appreciate everything you’ve done and would happily recommend you to anyone looking to buy or sell a home.
