Fernanda’s professionalism, market knowledge, communication and negotiation skills as well as her compassion, tenacity and personality are second to none. My complete faith in her ability allowed me to relax knowing that every aspect of the marketing and sale process would be carried out to the highest standard. She was in constant contact, updating me on developments, calmly dealing with any problems and within 5 days of the first open home presented me with an acceptable offer followed by a ‘brought forward’ auction which resulted in an excellent outcome. All of this in a very difficult market. I know how hard she worked to achieve this result and will continue to sing her praises so others can benefit from her expertise.
Easy to work with and finds the best homes fit for you!
I have bought and sold several properties through Lin Ma team. The service has consistently been excellent, and all my properties were sold at prices that exceeded my expectations. This is a highly‑experienced team with an excellent grasp of the market. I would highly recommend them to everyone.
Fernanda kept us in the loop through the whole process. She gave us expert, accurate advice and she knew what would be the best route for the sale of our property. She was gentle and took her time explaining everything slowly and clearly to my elderly father. Her team achieved a very successful outcome in a very short space of time. Her advice was always on point, professional and timely. I would 100+% recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell. Thank you team Fernanda.
Susan was fantastic from start to finish. Excellent communication throughout our experience, very friendly, always willing to assist and to go the extra mile. We highly recommend Susan to anyone thinking of selling.
I had a great experience working with Allie for my first home purchase. Communication was excellent from start to finish always quick to respond and kept me in the loop at every step. She looked after me throughout the whole process and made everything feel easy. On top of being professional and reliable, she's got a genuinely fun, happy personality that made the experience even better. Highly recommend!

She was very clear about the property details from the first day. So quick and flexible, doing the paperwork and when negotiating. Was available to talk in any minute we need to discuss something. Went beyond the limits to help us.

Both Alison and Jo were great to work with. They kept us fully informed throughout the sales process. We can honestly say the entire process was stress free. We have complete trust in them both and will certainly be using their services in the future.
Fernanda - Honest, reliable, communication is fantastic and very professional. If we wanted something done, she would get onto it straight away and get back to us with regular updates. I had my son go to a lot of open homes as we are from out of Christchurch and Fernanda was the only agent who greeted him with a friendly smile and a joke or two, took time with him and answered all his questions while other potential buyers were looking through houses as well. NO other agents did this - including other Harcourts agents. Some were rude or even ignored him. Fernanda treats everyone equal and gives time and is very sincere. We would definitely go back to her if we were to sell or buy another house. Even though ours was an auction she help negotiate extras for us. Fernanda organised 4 viewings outside the normal open homes and even drove me to them since I was from out of Christchurch. Honestly can't find a fault!!
We had an easy, comfortable and happy experience working along George to get our property over the line. He is a good listener, response directly, he keeps in touch and keeps you updated and take action. We had no concerns everything went smoothly. Many thanks, G man😊
