Clarence and his team excel in what they do. They care about each step of the sale and guide us throughout the whole process. Not only telling what we want to hear, but providing us feedback in a way that really helps us to extract the best of the property. This reflects on the results! Great to work with you! Super recommended.

It was lovely working with Karihana. She is warm and friendly, and was very approachable whenever we had any questions. She kept in touch often to see how we were tracking, and made sure we felt supported throughout the process, which was so helpful as first home buyers navigating pre-auction mahi. Her communication is brilliant - always clear, proactive, and open for a quick chat when we needed to clarify anything. She gave us the guidance and reassurance when needed to get everything sorted to go unconditional before the auction feeling very prepared. Highly recommend her!

We couldn’t have asked for a better experience selling our home. Karihana was absolutely amazing from start to finish. Personable, bubbly, confident, reliable and always so supportive throughout the entire process. She kept us well informed, communicated clearly and was always available when we had questions. Selling a home can be a stressful process, especially leading up to and through auction, but Karihana made us feel confident and supported every step of the way. Her professionalism, knowledge and genuine care really stood out, and we always felt like we were in very safe hands. Elizabeth was also fantastic and complemented Karihana beautifully as part of the team. Both were approachable, friendly and committed to getting the best outcome for us. We’re incredibly grateful for all their hard work and would happily recommend Karihana and Elizabeth to anyone looking to sell their home.

We’ve recently gone through the process of buying our first home and I’m really thankful we got to deal with Kristian as the vendors real estate agent, He’s been very helpful throughout the process and was incredibly approachable. Overall, our experience with Kristian has been great :)
Kristian has been absolutely exceptional throughout the sale of our home. His communication was clear, consistent, and he made every step of the process feel effortless. He brings a mix of knowledge, professionalism and approachability, along with a genuine reassuring confidence that makes you feel fully supported from start to finish. Kristian guided the entire campaign with a calm presence, care and kindness, great momentum and real expertise. We are incredibly grateful for everything he did and have told him more than once how amazing he is at his job, and the results speak for themselves as our property went from listed to unconditional in just 38 days. If you’re looking for an agent who delivers results, communicates brilliantly and genuinely cares, Kristian is the one. We couldn’t recommend him more highly.
