Definitely helped me with what the current market is doing prior to listing my property and good solid advice also. Definitely gave 100% of his time during the selling process.
Buyer of 10 Cornwall Street, Eltham
James was incredible from the moment we went through an open home ‘just looking’. We left the first open home with a list of homes to view and an excitement to buy. James worked with us through numerous offers, homes and viewings until we settled on our perfect home. We were thrilled at the great service provided. Nothing was too much, messages replied to within minutes every time and an outstanding knowledge of the market and process. Can’t recommend James any higher. Truly an outstanding person with a gift for the job.

From the first meeting Anji was a pleasure to deal with. She has a wealth of knowledge and gave us some very good advice on staging the house in order to achieve maximum interest. We received a weekly sales report, and were kept updated during the week if there was any new developments. The house sold very quickly with two offers on the table in a short time, and at higher sales price than we expected. We are very happy with the service we received.
Seller of 6 St Andrews Parkway, Waiwhakaiho
Anjie did a great job in maintaining the drive to get a sale on the property while always remaining positive and always being available to answer any queries. When an opportunity arose to secure a contract, she acted decisively to assist the prospective purchaser to get their property to the market.

Above and Beyond – An Exceptional Experience From Start to Finish! Where do we even begin? We honestly cannot thank Alison Smith from Smith Group here in Hāwera enough for the incredible experience she gave our whānau. Before working with Alison, we had heard so many wonderful things about her, and we can confidently say that her reputation is everything people say it is and more! From the very beginning, Alison went above and beyond for our whānau. What stood out to us most wasn't just her professionalism and extensive knowledge of the real estate market, but the genuine warmth, kindness and care she showed us throughout the entire journey. We never once felt like just another client. She embraced our whānau, understood our needs and made us feel valued and supported every step of the way. Her communication was absolutely outstanding! We were constantly kept informed, never left wondering what was happening or what came next. No question was ever too small, and nothing was ever too much trouble. Her honesty, attention to detail, negotiation skills and ability to navigate the process with such confidence made what could have been a stressful experience feel incredibly easy. But above all, it's Alison's genuine heart for people that sets her apart You can teach someone about real estate, but you cannot teach someone to genuinely care the way Alison does. She made us feel like we had someone truly in our corner, looking out for our best interests from beginning to end. For our whānau, this was more than just a property journey. It was an important milestone in our lives, and we are so grateful to have had Alison alongside us. We now understand exactly why she comes so highly recommended.

Buyer of 19 Portland Quay, Patea
Hayley organised everything for us in buying this property. Being nearly four hours away we relied on her to arrange local tradesmen to walk around with us when we arrived to check out the house for faults and give us a quote for any improvements we needed. The whole process went very smoothly and we were very happy with the outcome. We suggested a price to secure the home and she suggested the owners would most likely accept it and she was right. My wife and I have bought and sold at least a dozen properties in our time and this one was by far the simplest, thanks to Hayley of course. The whole process was a dream. Within 24 hours of seeing it our offer was accepted and that was it. Beat that! Thanks Hayley.

I am very fortunate to have known Hayley since we were younger, I’ve been following her excelling career over the years and I always said to myself if I was ever in a position to buy or sell a house there would be no one else I could trust but Hayley so I didn’t hesitate to give Hayley a call. My family decided it was time to sell our family home so I assured my family I have a very good friend Hayley she is a realest agent and she’s amazing at her job. From the very first day I took my family into meet Hayley she was very welcoming with a lovely smile, Hayley explained everything to us in detail so we understood exactly what the process is going forward and how Hayley is going to work her magic to get our house sold Within days our house went live and was listed on the market we couldn’t believe the amazing work Hayley had done on our 100 year old house from the a.i visual to the drone capturing the beautiful scenery outside it really was incredible seeing how determined and talented Hayley is at making sure everything from the inside and outside looks outstanding to capture the buyers attention. From the Friday the house was listed Hayley informed us over the weekend she’d received many emails and phone calls with enquirers then a week later Hayley informed us she’d received an excellent offer over the asking price so we didn’t hesitate to accept the offer Two weeks after the listing was advertised and we couldn’t believe it when Hayley rung to tell us the exciting news the house has sold 🤩 We are all still shocked and thrilled that Hayley really went above any beyond to get our house sold in two weeks , Our family couldn’t be more happier with all the hard work and time Hayley put in to get our house sold In two weeks just incredible we really appreciate you always being informative from the first day We can’t thank you enough for you’re mahi Nga mihi Meyer Whanua
Buyer of 38 Ramanui Avenue, Hawera
Hayley was wonderful! As first home buyers, we found the process quite confusing and, at times, stressful. Hayley made everything so much easier by guiding us through every step of the journey. She was incredibly efficient, always available to answer our questions, and provided ongoing support whenever we needed it. Her professionalism, knowledge, and dedication gave us confidence throughout the entire process. We would highly recommend Hayley to anyone purchasing a home, especially first home buyers.
