I found Trent very easy to work with. He understood the market and in particular understood the house and the decisions we had made in our renovation. He directed our staging accordingly. Trent was proactive in finding and securing our buyer and kept us up to date with progress. I would happily recommend him.
Trent has great knowledge of many industries. We have enjoyed working with him and having him part of the hard working team.
From the outset Trent set out a clear and comprehensive Timeline and Plan of the whole process and this committment continued until the Property sold at Auction and Settled. Trent kept me informed at all times of progress, providing clear and concise written and verbal communication throughout the process. Trent’s extensive knowledge not only of the Market but of the area is an asset for both Vendor and Purchaser, even going through extensive History records of the house and area ensuring both Vendor and Purchaser had an in depth representation of the Property at all times which ultimately resulted in a successful Auction on the day.
He was so professional, patient, never late for an appointment, always did what he said he would, briefed us always, and advised us on all the things we wanted to know, not necessarily to do with the sale.
We selected Trent to act for us in the sale of two properties from our parents' estate. The properties came to market at the end of 2022, coinciding with a time when the Auckland property market was plummeting. While it took a lot longer to sell the properties than we had envisaged and the prices we had initially hoped for were not what we ended up selling for I definitely rate Trent highly for his work ethic, his persistence and his constant communication. He is an experienced agent who brought a lot of industry knowledge and contacts to the table and was proactive in solving every issue that arose. Highly recommended.
We were delighted to have Trent as our agent. He was considerate, thoroughly au fait with the area and worked very hard for us to get the best outcome in tough economic times. He was always willing to listen to our concerns and gave us confidence throughout the process.
We have been in search of a property for 6 months before we met Trent, who represented the Vendors. During that period, we have been subjected to many ethically questionable treatments from various agents - meeting Trent was thus a breath of fresh air. Trent is gifted with fair judgment characterised by a willingness to trade perspectives to balance the parties' interests. With an eloquence distinguished not by persuasiveness but by empathy, Trent is by far the best vendor agent we have met in the market. The care demonstrated during negotiations also shows he is not only in the business of real estate, but in building bonds. With his involvement, the purchasers' experience was far more than a simple transaction - Trent understood we were seeking a home. "A good negotiation is one where both parties walk away equally unhappy." In our case, Trent's flair for human conversations and genuine care achieved the seemingly impossible - happy vendors and satisfied purchasers. Above all else, Trent possesses a quality that sets him apart from many "top agents" - his unshakable and impeccable integrity.
Trent is a people person. He can connect people with respect and trust. He is also professional and handle the process with good business acumen. We have an enjoyable experience dealing with him and most important that he delivers the result that we set for.
We entrusted Trent with the sale of our rental property - that we originally brought through him over a decade prior. We knew the process would be professional, seamless and communicative and that he would be focused on achieving the best outcome in the current market. Trent and his team worked extremely hard, often going beyond our expectations, to ensure the property was well presented at all times and kept us in the loop every step of the way. We are happy with the end result and would highly recommend Trent and his team for your sale or purchase journey. With big thanks, Shaun and Debbie.
Following a warm recommendation from another of Trent's clients, we interviewed and appointed Trent our agent to sell our mother's St Heliers Bay apartment. From the outset, Trent demonstrated a deep understanding of property generally, the currently fickle market and the angles that were available to us to secure a sale. Trent helped us navigate the Council's building compliance requirements and gave consistently sound advice on all manner of things from how the property should be staged and who we might use to marketing recommendations and strategic decisions. Trent was always extremely contactable. Hardly a day passed during the whole campaign when we didn't hear from Trent - and often it was several times in one day. Although we were aware that Trent was also acting for a number of other vendors at the same time, it never felt like it. One Ray White offering that Trent maintained assiduously was their online feedback facility. This enabled us at any time to check on Trent's progress with the various potential purchasers that had enquired about the property. We were impressed by Trent's obvious concern that both he and we met our ethical obligations as agent and vendors at all times. Trent showed enormous energy throughout. He was a pleasure to deal with and will use him again next time we wish to sell.
We had a great experience with Trent Colyer, in conjunction with Gerard Charteris and the team at Megan Jaffe Ray White Remuera. Trent was excellent at all stages, from the preparation of the marketing material prior to listing through to auction day and then settlement. His communication throughout was prompt and professional and his assessment of the market and the likely sale price accurate. The support team at Megan Jaffe Ray White Remuera were also thoroughly professional and a pleasure to work with.
Excellent to deal with. Good follow up and achieved a good outcome.
