"We recently sold our property and had a very positive experience working with our real estate agent. From the beginning, she demonstrated a strong understanding of the market and guided us with confidence through each stage of the process. One key recommendation she made early on was to complete a building report prior to listing. Initially, we were unsure about this approach, as we believed this would typically be the buyer’s responsibility. However, we decided to trust her professional judgment and proceed as advised. In hindsight, this proved to be a well-informed strategy. Despite a challenging market environment—characterised by low activity and volatility—she was able to generate solid interest and ultimately secure an offer approximately 7% above the property’s RV. Given the current conditions and the fact that the property is located in a more rural area, this result exceeded our expectations. Throughout the process, her communication was clear, proactive, and professional. She remained committed to achieving the best possible outcome for us and handled negotiations effectively. Overall, we are very satisfied with the result and the service provided. We would confidently recommend her to anyone looking to sell their property."
We engaged Sarah to help us sell our home in Coalgate after 2 prior unsuccessful attempts. We found Sarah to be a great communicator always keeping us up to date with the process, and was always happy to help organise things we needed to get sorted, this was so great for us as we live in the North Island, and it made things much less stressful. She is friendly, easy to talk to and we found she has great enthusiasm in her job. Fortunately our home sold and Sarah was there every step of the way to make it an easy process for us. We would highly recommend Sarah for anyone looking to sell their property.
We had a fantastic experience working with you on the sale of our home. From start to finish, your communication was clear, honest, and consistent, which gave us great confidence throughout the entire process. You demonstrated strong knowledge of the market, guided us through every step, and always made yourself available to answer our questions. Your professionalism, attention to detail, and commitment to achieving a great outcome did not go unnoticed. Thank you for making what can often be a stressful process feel smooth and well-managed. We truly appreciate your hard work and would highly recommend you to anyone looking to buy or sell property. Kind regards, Yolande and Jerome Ruiters
Sara is really excellent. Friendly, approachable, and knowledgeable. We bought a fabulous house through her, and remain very happy.
Sarah put a lot of energy into the sale, showed many through, and was interested in the house history. Perhaps a bit more communication would have been helpful.
Sarah sold me my property in December last year and she was the best agent i had delt with through the process of buying a new home. She was friendly,kind,professional but also had alot of knowledge on the home (that had a story) i appreciated her time she spent with us showing us around and answering all our questions with ease. Thank you sarah for being so awesome through the process and making it a dream.
"We chose them because of Steph as she had been the real estate agent when we purchased the property and we really liked her. Great experience and smooth process. Steph was a pleasure to deal with and kept us informed at all times. We had a great result."
Megan was extremely professional and knowledgeable. She went above and beyond to sort out an issue we had with the council. I would highly recommend Megan if you are buying or aelling
I have recommended Megan to anyone who is looking to buy or sell in the area ( she sold our section so quickly, the poor other realestate person had had it for a year )

With our verification process, you can trust that the experiences shared are real, reliable, and helpful.
Integrity is at the core of what we do.

Only clients involved in an actual transaction with an agent can leave a review. This helps ensure authenticity and prevents fake or anonymous feedback. Agent's have no control over what’s written - every review, whether positive or critical, is published and remains visible.
