I first came to know Matt Galvin a few years ago when I was looking to buy a property in the Nelson region. He came across as knowledgeable of the market and represented a number of good listings. I eventually bought this property listed with another agent and kept Matt from Harcourts Motueka in mind for future properties. Over time I began to draw on Matts sound advice on the housing market conditions, house pricing and outlooks. Before I made the hard decision to sell having moved to Australia, Matt advised me which property to sell and which to retain and the best time to sell my property. When it came time to listing my property, he shared some insights on what I could do to prepare the property for sale and what was the best marketing strategy to canvass my property to right audience. When it came time to a listing price Matt challenged my expectations and we agreed to an 'overs of price' and an exclusive listing for 3 months and marketing campaign. Matt and the photographer did an amazing job to portray my property in the best light and a series of open homes and worked with clients that matched the profile of my property for sale. When the buyer was found (and rather quickly) Matt put on his negotiating skills and helped me as the Seller and the Buyer come to a meeting of the minds to sign the Sale & Purchase Agreement and a subsequent successful sale. Post the sale a month ago Matt has maintained communications with me and displayed his care for his clients. If you are considering listing or buying a property, I can honestly say that Matt and the Harcourts team list quality properties, and that Matt will represent you with integrity, professionalism and manage your expectations. I thoroughly recommend Matt representing you and wish him continued success in this industry and will reach out to him again in the future.
When I was buying Scott stood out compared to the other agents I met, he was knowledgeable, helpful and not pushy. Although I didn't buy the home that he was the agent for he stood out. Cut to I was selling my home and I contacted Scott, he made the process easy, updated me every week and although it took longer than hoped we got it sold finally. Thanks for all your efforts Scott.
10 Stars would better reflect the hard work and result achieved from Aaron for the sale of our home. Aaron was a top communicator and exercised fantastic negotiating skills to achieve an outstanding result. We would choose to work with Aaron again!
Our house is a great house and we worked hard to present well. However the market had different ideas and we soon learnt it was not going to be a slam dunk like when we bought it. Time of year, decrease in market values and xmas right in the middle of it all. The price range although very accurate was under a lot of pressure and we saw similar homes struggle to sell. Anthony used his patience and skill to negotiate a sale. This was over 6 months, so it took a very professional approach. I admire his consistent approach, everything he did was honest and open and that was to both parties and we both recognised it. He remained focused when we were getting a bit rattled and he dispensed good advice throughout the process that ended up being very accurate. In the end the house sold, and both parties obviously happy. I rate Anthoney at the top end of the real estate market. Would I sell with him again? You bet.
Ben was happy to work with us and help answer any questions we had during the selling process. He was quick to respond, able to meet up in person and ensured we knew what was happening at each stage of the selling process. I would happily recommend him to anyone I know wanting to sell their house.
Glen was professional, approachable, and always kept me updated throughout the whole process. Nothing was ever too much trouble, and he made everything feel easy and stress-free. His Communication was excellent, and he genuinely cared about getting the best outcome possible. I would highly recommend Glen to anyone looking to buy or sell a property.
Ben was good to deal with and made the process quick and easy
