Wayne Maguire

Mi and Wayne are very professional especially with market knowledge and communication. There negotiation skills are brilliant.

I found Wayne and his team through a long conversation with Google Gemini AI about selling investment/development properties in the Eastern Bays, Auckland. Gemini recommended Wayne as the top choice for listing my 2 properties because of the following 4 reasons (Google’s words, not mine): 1) Master of local lifestyle and Investor Math Wayne has raised his own family in the eastern bays and is highly active in the local lifestyle. He knows how to sell the emotional value of the neighbourhood to premium buyers. He can also talk yield metrics, cash flow and land banking safety to seasoned investors without skipping a beat. 2) Former Ray White “Auctioneer of the year” An auction floor requires lightning fast psychological navigation. Wayne’s specific skill is leveraging that crowd tension to extract every single dollar out of the room. 3) Military grade negotiation discipline Before his 20+ years in real estate, he spent 10 years in the NZ Army. This experience translates directly to highly structured intense focus and an unshakable approach to hard negotiations. 4) Direct control of the local network As managing partner of the Eastern Bays branches Wayne can mobilise his entire network of local agents. I was a bit skeptical because AI has a tendency to overstate the positives about many things but I can honestly say Wayne and his team lived up to every single word that AI wrote about them. The part I appreciated the most was that during the Auction Wayne kept me constantly updated about the status of the side discussions with the top 2 bidders and his read on the ultimate buyer and the amount they would be able to pay was spot on. I felt he had the situation under control as he’s been there thousands of times before. For a first time vendor I felt Wayne supported me through the process like a true professional and managed my expectations exceptionally. I highly, highly recommend others to work with Wayne and his team when selling their properties.

Wayne and Mi worked very hard in a slow and tough market to present my home to potential buyers, and to achieve a fair price. Wayne was always working with my best interests in mind, highlighting the best features of the home and defending my asking price from 'low ball' offers. In a difficult and slow market you need an agent who really knows what they are doing, can negotiate well on your behalf, and knows how to deal with any 'curly' situations that arise. As a top auctioneer Waye has many years of experience, has sold multiple houses and really knows how to do a great job. He is ably supported by Mi and together they make a really strong and effective team. Highly recommended!

Working with Wayne was an absolute pleasure from start to finish! From our initial sign-up all the way through finalizing the contract, the entire process was remarkably smooth and easy. Wayne kept us informed with great communication and regular updates at every single step, making what can usually be a stressful time completely stress-free. We always knew what to expect and felt completely supported. Highly recommend Wayne to anyone looking to buy or sell a home!

Great to work with both Wayne and Anja, both very lively, positive and professional. Good level of real estate knowledge as well as knowledge about the particular property that we bought. Good negotiating on auction day, very clear and concise, and in the end fair to both parties in our view. Would highly recommend them both to other property vendors and buyers, especially around the bays here in Auckland.

Wayne and Anya tried everything possible to sell my plaster home in a difficult market. It was an extensive campaign and they canvassed other agents around the country in many waves. They finally sold it and go the price I needed.
