Rebecca was highly recommended by family members who had purchased their recent property, where she was the Vendor's Real Estate Agent. From our initial appointment to meet Rebecca, the representation of information, openness, listening skills, and advice for the Sale of our property, although overwhelming at first, was just a matter of question/answers to arrive at the appropriate method of sale. Rebecca clearly understood from her Real Estate experience the strtegy required, listening and taking any ideas on board. All contact with Rebecca and her support Team, was absolutely spot on, any concerns handled immediately, and all Open Day feedback was relayed promptly. Rebecca is full of real estate knowledge, market information and very "person orientated" and wishes only the best for BOTH Vendor and Buyer. Communications were excellent from Rebecca and her "Dream Team" - staging and organising the whole process, appeared effortless from our point of view, but we were very aware, there is a huge amount going on in the background.
Made the whole process easy and stress free with good communication through out.
As we were from Sydney, Estelle explained many facets of buying our first house in New Zealand. We couldn't have bought our new house without her. She was on the phone with us in Sydney while we were bidding at the auction. She is very honest and very responsive to our many questions. She even helped us find a lawyer and a property manager, who we are very pleased with. She is professional but also friendly and generous with her time. I would definitely recommend her to anyone who wants to buy or sell property in Christchurch.

Professional but friendly agent, Great communications all round. Went above and beyond to complete a successful sale. Thanks Allen
We have known Lisa Wong for many years, and she has always been our go-to real estate consultant for both buying and selling properties. Lisa genuinely puts our best interests at heart and consistently provides valuable advice and guidance throughout the process. She goes above and beyond what is expected, even taking the extra time and effort to arrange tradespeople to carry out repairs to our property. She is incredibly efficient, reliable and someone we can always trust. We couldn’t ask for a better real estate professional and would happily recommend Lisa to anyone looking to buy or sell a property.
Lisa is an excellent communicator who responds quickly and has outstanding market knowledge. She is highly professional, genuinely cares about her clients, and always puts their interests first. She is never pushy and makes you feel comfortable and confident throughout the entire process. I would highly recommend Lisa to anyone looking for a trustworthy, knowledgeable, and dedicated real estate agent. You’ll be in very good hands with her!
Thank you so much for Danny Xu and Mark Wang. They are the most professional and best agent team I’ve ever encountered. Using their expert knowledge, they analysed the property for me and helped me beat 17 other buyers to secure the property at auction.
Milena was easy to deal with. We enjoyed her warm and friendly style. She willingly shared her knowledge and met all our expectations throughout the buying process. With excellent communication skills and a keen eye for detail Milena would be my first choice of agent in the future.
We had a wonderful experience working with Lin Ma during the purchase of our first home in Christchurch. As first-home buyers, we had many questions and were unfamiliar with some parts of the buying and auction process. Lin was friendly, approachable, patient, and supportive throughout the journey. She was always willing to answer our questions, provide helpful information, and guide us through the process. Her knowledge of the property market and professional guidance helped us feel more confident when making important decisions. We really appreciated her professionalism, clear communication, responsiveness, and positive attitude throughout the viewing, negotiation, and auction process. She was always willing to help and made the whole experience much smoother and less stressful for us. We are very happy to have successfully purchased our first home at 27 Withells Road, Avonhead and truly appreciate Lin's help and support along the way. Thank you so much, Lin, for your kindness, patience, and dedication. We would happily recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell a property in Christchurch.
This is the third time we have used Milena Bartlett. She has done a fantastic job for us in both buying and selling property. Milena's communication is second to none. At all times we felt very well informed particularly following open days of which we had nine. Her assistance with putting us in touch with staging the property was first rate and her explanations of the costs required to sell and why were well received. The Harcourts experience was invaluable with many other agents also bringing potential purchasers through. We would have no hesitation in recommending Milena as an agent of the highest quality and certainly intend to use her again.
