Agencies in Cardrona, Otago

Well organised and clear with her communications. Made our discussion to buy quite easy and not over complicated.

From our very first meeting with Kylie, it was clear she has a deep understanding of the premium and luxury property market in Wanaka, knowing exactly what discerning buyers are looking for and how to position a home of quality with high-end finishes to attract them. What set Kylie apart was her warmth and genuine care. She is a terrific listener and took the time to understand what we wanted rather than pushing her own agenda. She never once felt like an agent simply chasing a sale and genuinely wanted us to achieve a result that WE were happy with. Her negotiation skills are exceptional. Calm, firm, and strategic, Kylie navigated a difficult market with a steady hand. She was realistic and honest, but also incredibly hard-working and truly supported us emotionally through the uncertain process of selling. For us, the true mark of an exceptional agent is how they handle and support you through tough market conditions — and Kylie was outstanding. Combine that with her deep local knowledge, particularly of high-end homes with quality finishes, Kylie is an agent who is in a class of her own. Professional, personal, and absolutely committed to her clients, we couldn't imagine selling with anyone else!

Our trust in Justine and Ben to sell our house in the manner we wanted and without pressure has been completely validated. Relaxed, friendly, knowledgeable communication with us was invaluable. Commitment, enthusiasm & patience are admirable qualities Justine and Ben displayed throughout the selling process. Professionalism and integrity were always to the fore and we truly appreciate their great team work. We have no hesitation in highly recommending them for property negotiations.

Marc is very personable and extremely helpful. He fully understands the market and can react quickly to change. He has provided an exceptional experience that went above and beyond any of our expectations.

I chose to work with Gavin and Bell regarding the sale of my Lake Hawea primary residence after liaising closely with them over a five year period. During that time frame I saw them become the leading sales experts for our eclectic local market. So away we went. Communication was extremely timely, clear and concise and openly honest. It's OK to have differences of opinion. In fact its a good thing to have with your agent. Finding compromise and having 'what if' scenarios within our comprehensive 'three option' selling proposition was part of our sales discovery process. Its essential that Gavin and Bell attended all the open homes personally. What you learn in conversation, post open home follow ups, and casual viewing commentary is and was critical for full discovery outside of the offers in our case. We picked the perfect time for the open home sessions with people everywhere during the peak summer season. We attracted close to 30 groups to come through over that period. The photos were 'money' and spot on to maximize the effect of the property. With respect to our objective of price discovery, I would say the offers received did not show us a true indicator regarding appropriate value pricing given the type of buyers coming through, ( many locals seeking to relocate), the competitive offerings and the macro economic environment of the Gulf Conflict. We did get good input into value from the buyer feedback, particulary with lot #47's empty section requiring power and water connections. Today's buyers want and need turn key solutions Here is perhaps the most important part of the review, through the process and into a period of post deadline viewings and follow ups, Gavin remained incredibly positive and continued to run the process after I had pretty much given up. As a result of that continued optimism and commitment, an acceptable offer came out of the shadows. Job well done, kudos to all at Harcourts that played their roles in the team approach.

Mei successfully sold my apartment in Queenstown (Frankton). As an out-of-town owner, I relied heavily on my agent to manage the details, and Mei delivered on every front. Her communication was prompt and proactive throughout — viewing feedback, buyer interest, and the legal and management follow-ups were all kept up to date without me needing to chase. The negotiation was the standout. Mei read the situation accurately, protected my position, and got the property unconditional at a price above my expectations. Her attention to detail was equally strong: potential risk points such as the car park exchange agreement and the property management termination were flagged early and coordinated cleanly with my solicitor, which prevented issues during settlement. If you're an owner selling a Queenstown property remotely, I would strongly recommend Mei.
