Agencies in Glenside, Wellington

Selling our family home, on land owned for 40-plus years, was never going to be straightforward — and it wasn't! A property of Wairarapa or Kapiti Coast size but only 13kms from Wellington's CBD. From the moment we met Michael Hinds, I knew we were with the right people — for our property and, as it turned out, for us too. Michael turns up an agent and leaves as a friend. Warm, genuine and truly interested in you and your family — not just in selling your house. He digs into what makes your property and story special, and THIS is what he, Mariola and Andrea share with viewers to turn them into buyers. His market knowledge is standout — he knew exactly who Waitakaro was for and how to reach them. There were moments where life intervened in ways none of us could have planned for. Every single time, Michael's response was the same: family first. He meant it. Every time. His communication was constant and honest — every question answered, every call taken, day or night, without hesitation or judgement. When deadline day arrived, he brought multiple offers — exactly what this property deserved. His negotiation skills secured us above BEO and I am genuinely happy with what the team achieved. Between the delays, the life events and the sheer complexity of it all — Michael's professionalism never wavered. We wept, we laughed, and through it all, he kept showing up. If you want an agent who will treat your home and your family with genuine care, patience and professionalism — and who will hold the line for you when it counts — call Michael Hinds. You won't regret it.

People say “Real estate agents only work for themselves, not the buyer or the seller”. I was viewing many houses and met many agents from different real estate agencies for 8 months. Most of the time, I agree with this saying. However, Marie is the one that changed the stereotypes that I perceived from an agent. Not only did she provide me with helpful information about the house; she was also willing to answer questions that most agents would not answer. She has always been enthusiastic about helping me to find all the answers that I need to make decisions, from the vendor, the council, the trade people, or any one that could help. What I like the most about her was that treated me like a dear friend of hers, rather than a client. She exceeded all the expectations I had toward an agent. In every single step, from viewing the house, to making an offer, and then to the negotiation process, all the way to the settlement date, she was there to help. She gave me advice, she showed me ways of searching for the information that I need. She made me feel safe and certain about every decision that I made along the way. Honest, kind, caring, helpful and trustworthy; that’s Marie. She is truly a God sent gift. I am very grateful that I met her.
