Karen and Murray Groves were the best buyer agents we have worked with! They worked as a team to understand what we were looking for as first home buyers and how we can accomplish that with our budget. Their communication skills were on point! Any time we had a question or updated them on the process, we would hear back asap. They made us feel really comfortable and welcomed us to the market with open arms. At first, we were not going to pair with buyers agents and thought we could do this whole process by ourselves. As soon as we got in contact with Karen and Murray, we felt an ease of mind and received amazing support about the process. They are very reputable and have contacts all across Christchurch within Harcourts and with other agents or builders. We couldn’t have found our perfect first home without them and we really want to say thank you! Karen was amazing at providing the facts or whether a house was a good investment or not. Whether that was teaching us about the property in general or telling us when we needed to make a decision. I would HIGHLY recommend Karen and Murray Groves as they made this process easy and we learnt a bunch of new information as first home buyers from them. Thank you for all your hard work and can’t wait to work with you both in the future!

We cannot recommend Murray and Karen highly enough. From the very beginning, they were exceptionally responsive, professional, and genuinely cared about helping us find the right home. We always felt that they had our best interests at heart, and their guidance throughout the entire process gave us so much confidence and peace of mind. Their market knowledge was fantastic, and they consistently went above and beyond to make the buying process as smooth and stress-free as possible. No question was ever too much trouble, and they were always willing to help in any way they could. Buying a house can be overwhelming at times, but Murray and Karen made the experience feel manageable and exciting. We are so grateful for all of their hard work, support, and dedication. We would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking to buy a house. These guys are more than agents, they truly aspire to make your dreams come true!
65 Patterson Terrace Halswell
Murray and Karen helped fill out our offer for Patterson Terrace and passed this on to the vendor’s agent. As a mum of young kids this step has actually prevented us from handing offers in on the past, so we were grateful to have someone else word our conditions for us, make sure the paperwork was all in order and hand it in on time.

We chose Alison Carter to sell this house, for her extensive knowledge of the Sumner area and because she was recommended by other satisfied clients. The knowledge of the market and especially who was looking to purchase in the area was invaluable . Alison was very good at communicating progress throughout the sales period and worked tirelessly with some Trustees who live overseas. Nothing was too much trouble.

We had a great experience selling our home with Emma. From the very first email query I sent her, she communicated promptly and clearly. She kept us updated throughout the whole process, which made everything feel so much less stressful. What really stood out was how quickly she made our house a priority and got it on the market. Her professionalism, dedication and friendly approach made us feel confident we were in good hands. We truly appreciated all of her hard work and would happily recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell a home.

I can not thank Emma enough for finally getting my house sold. After 5 months with another agent. The sold sticker is finally up. Emma is nothing more than amazing to find a buyer. Amazing communication, keeping me in the loop. This sale really showed me the power of Harcourts and what they can do.
500C Harewood Rd Harewood
We had an exceptional experience working with Emma. From start to finish, she demonstrated professionalism, understood our needs and goals and had a genuine commitment to achieving the best possible outcome for us. What really stood out was Emma’s communication—clear, honest, and always timely. Emma went above and beyond, not just in marketing the property beautifully, but also in offering practical advice and guidance. Sometimes acting as our unpaid therapist helping us navigate nerves and emotions. Nothing ever felt like too much trouble. Selling a home can be stressful, but Emma made the entire process smooth and seamless. We felt supported the whole way through. If you’re looking for someone who is knowledgeable, proactive, and genuinely cares about you and getting you the best result, we couldn’t recommend Emma highly enough.
