26 real estate agents in Hillcrest, Bay of Plenty

From the moment we met Cindy, we knew she wasn’t just an agent — but someone who genuinely understood us, our hopes, our quirks, and the feeling we were chasing in a home. She knew exactly what we were after, sometimes even before we did, and she carried that understanding with a true spirit of excitement and joy for our journey. It never felt transactional with her; it felt personal. Cindy was the calm in every storm. Whenever we hit one of our “occasional crises” — and there were a few — she was right there at the end of the phone, ready to talk us through it with patience, honesty, and that signature Cindy warmth. She never sugar-coated things, but she always delivered the truth in a way that grounded us and helped us make confident decisions. What really set her apart was her ability to set real expectations without ever dimming our excitement. She knew exactly what she was doing, and it showed in every conversation, every viewing, every late-night question, and every bump in the road. Her knowledge of the market was clear, but even more impressive was her intuition — her ability to read people, read situations, and guide us with a mix of experience, empathy, and unshakeable positivity. And her personality, the part you can’t train or teach. Cindy brought lightness, fun, and banter into a process that can often feel overwhelming. She made us laugh, she made us feel understood, and she brought a kind of joy that turned the whole journey into something we will genuinely remember fondly. It’s rare to find someone who can carry professionalism and friendship so effortlessly, and with ease. By the end of it all, Cindy wasn’t just supporting us as clients; she was cheering for us as people. She was truly excited for our next chapter, invested in our story, and part of the reason we got to where we are now. If you’re lucky enough to have her walk alongside you on your property journey, you’ll feel it too, her spirit, heart, patience, woven into the work she does.

Cindy was always prompt with the communication and kept us well informed. Helped us acheive our desired outcome.

I had a fantastic experience working with my real estate agent. From the very beginning, they were professional, attentive, and always available to answer questions. They listened carefully to what I was looking for and provided excellent guidance throughout the process. Their market knowledge and negotiation skills helped me secure a great deal, and I felt supported every step of the way. What stood out most was their genuine care and commitment to making sure everything went smoothly. I highly recommend them to anyone looking to buy or sell a home—you’ll be in great hands!

I had a great experience working with Kris. He was always on the ball, proactive, and quick to adjust the strategy as needed throughout the process. His ability to adapt made a real difference in getting the property sold. He kept me well informed every step of the way, which gave me a lot of confidence and peace of mind. Communication was clear, timely, and consistent from start to finish. Overall, a very professional and effective agent—I’d happily recommend Kris to others.

We are absolutely thrilled with the result Kris and his team achieved for our property. Right from the start, Kris laid out a clear marketing calendar, and his operational team executed it perfectly. The presentation of the house was spot on, the staging (and even the plant staging!) was beautiful, and paired with the great photography, our listing got a huge amount of views online. What really stood out to us was his read on the market. Even though things were a bit quiet in Jan, Kris ran such a strong campaign that we had multiple group visited during open homes and a surprisingly high number of bidders show up on auction day. His pre-auction briefing was fantastic, and his prediction of the outcome was incredibly accurate. If you want an agent with the sharp sales skills and marketing strategy needed to get you the absolute best result, we can't recommend Kris highly enough.

Kris is a great agent with strong industry experience. His market insights and attention to detail is great. The whole process was an ease with Kris providing excellent communication and support.
