Excellent service and fantastic results! Yuting is professional, proactive, and a fantastic communicator. She made the whole process smooth and stress-free. Five stars all the way!
We had an excellent experience selling our home at 11 Dunster Street, Christchurch. From the beginning, our agent was professional, knowledgeable, and committed to achieving the best possible outcome for us. After our first auction and subsequent negotiations did not result in a sale, he didn't give up. Instead, he worked tirelessly to develop a new strategy, kept us well informed throughout the process, and successfully secured a second auction. His persistence, positive attitude, and confidence ultimately led to the successful sale of our home. We really appreciated his honest advice, excellent communication, and dedication every step of the way. Selling a home can be stressful, but he made the process much easier with his professionalism and support. We would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a hardworking and trustworthy real estate agent. Thank you for helping us achieve a great result!
We had a great experience selling our home. From start to finish, Ada was professional, knowledgeable, and easy to work with. They kept us informed throughout the process, answered our questions promptly, and made everything as stress-free as possible. We were very happy with the outcome and would happily recommend them to anyone looking to buy or sell a home.
Wonderful photos and video of my house. Realistic appraisal initially under offer by deadline this unfortunately did not go through and Kate was quickly back on the open homes with no delay. Kate informed me of all open home visitors and their feedback to enable me to change expectations as the market changed. Kate was very professional and realistic of the market and we had frequent discussions about marketing style. Kate and Warwick worked together to sell my house they kept my spirits up along the way. Kate reiterated frequently that they had a great belief in my property and the right vendor would come in time. When my house was eventually under an acceptable offer Kate came to my house to assist me in accepting offer as I was due to leave the country on holiday. While I was away Kate liaised with my family with any issues and only contacted me when absolutely necessary to confirm unconditional offer. Very competitive fees. I warmly recommend Kate and her co-agents they are a fantastic team.
The feedback was always thorough and prompt, with attention to detail
Nicole was very patient as we took over 9 month to find our house. She was very helpful and understanding our needs. Very highly recommended
Nicole helped us as both a buyers and sellers agent, as a buyers agent she was diligent and saw open homes with us every weekend until we purchased. Once we purchased she sold our home in around one week. Amazingly fast and efficient
Michelle was exceptional throughout our entire home-buying journey. She is highly professional, knowledgeable, and genuinely puts her clients’ best interests first. She took the time to understand exactly what we were looking for and provided honest, thoughtful advice every step of the way. What really stood out was her in-depth knowledge of the local market and the properties we were interested in. She didn’t just tell us about the houses—she provided valuable insights into each property’s strengths, future potential, and possible considerations, which helped us make informed decisions with confidence. Her professionalism was especially evident during the auction. Michelle demonstrated an outstanding bidding strategy, remained calm under pressure, and knew exactly how to navigate the auction process. Her expertise and strategic approach played a key role in helping us successfully secure our home. Communication was always prompt, clear, and transparent. We truly felt that Michelle was working to achieve the best possible outcome for us rather than simply making a sale. We are incredibly grateful for her dedication, expertise, and genuine care throughout the process. We highly recommend Michelle to anyone looking for a trustworthy, experienced, and client-focused real estate agent. She exceeded all of our expectations.
