Melissa and Tony were amazing to deal with. They were thoughtful and made the purchase process through auction much less stressful than previous other experiences. Even leading up to the auction they went the extra mile to ensure that we had all the information we needed to make an informed decision
Ben and Jason were professional, easy to deal with and communicated well throughout the entire sale process. Their marketing of the property was above and beyond and they kept me informed every step of the way. They handled everything smoothly and made the experience far less stressful than expected. I was very happy with the final result and would happily recommend Oliver Road Estate Agents to anyone looking to sell their home.
We are so thrilled we went with Tracey and Trevor to sell our home. I met Tracey through a networking group a few years ago, and when it came time to sell, her passion for real estate is what ultimately won us over. No easy decision when you have friends who are also agents. We had already committed to purchasing another property, so there was no turning back. Tracey's advice to get a building report on our own home before listing was excellent. While there was nothing major, it meant we could fix them before the first open home. Throughout the entire process, Tracey navigated every hurdle with confidence and kept us well-informed at every step. We purchased our new home before the conflict in the Middle East began, but ended up selling during it, in what can only be described as a cooling market. Despite that, Tracey still met our original price expectations, which speaks volumes. We would be more than happy to recommend Tracey and Trevor to anyone looking to buy or sell.
Sara really went above and beyond. We were buying from overseas, and had to inspect the house via video call. This takes a lot of time, and we had to ask Sara to specifically inspect things a few times over. After the inspection, she patiently answered all questions, and then wrote us a few pages of info about the neighbourhood. She arranged a few unusual sessions (like us meeting the sellers) all in good grace. A joy to work with, I'd recommend her to anyone.

My wife and I bought a house through Adrienne at auction. Her experience and guidance were invaluable. When it came to selling our home, we contacted Adrienne and had a great experience through what could have been a very, very stressful exercise. She advised us to sell at auction, and her advice proved to be invaluable, as we achieved a fabulous result. My wife and I are very grateful for the knowledge she brought to the whole process. We couldn't be happier.
Nick demonstrated excellent knowledge of the market and provided clear, practical advice throughout the process. He was always pleasant and easy to deal with, making the experience smooth and stress-free for us. His honest and transparent approach gave us confidence every step of the way.

From the very first meeting, Duncan and the team's professionalism, market knowledge, and genuine passion stood out. They took the time to understand exactly what we wanted to achieve and provided clear, strategic advice that gave us complete confidence in the process. Communication and speed at which things were actioned was outstanding throughout. What truly set them apart was their attention to detail, not only in the selling process, but also in the building, legal and regulatory processes in NZ. From presentation and marketing through to negotiations. Their ability to read the market and position our property perfectly ultimately led to a fantastic result. Beyond the results, they were simply great to deal with — approachable, honest, and highly driven. You can tell they genuinely care about their clients and take pride in what they do.
We had a fantastic experience working with our real estate agent Theo. Communication was clear and consistent from start to finish, which made the whole process feel straightforward and stress-free. The sale happened quickly, and everything was handled efficiently with no hassle at all. He was easy to work with, professional, and followed through on everything he said he would do. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him to others.
At each step of the process I always felt like Clark had a plan - he remained positive and gave excellent advice. Together with Bee they were an excellent team to work with. If I was to repeat the process, I would not hesitate to entrust Clark and his team again.
