Seller of 34 Karekare Road, Karekare
We had the sad task of selling our family home of 30 years at Karekare Beach on the West Coast — made even more daunting by the fact that we live overseas. Before calling Maria, I read through her other testimonials, and they were all true. She was easily the best choice: a West Coast local who knows her business and genuinely cares. I can't recommend her highly enough. She was a lifesaver. Maria went out of her way constantly — dealing with buyers, running open homes, and navigating such a niche property in a tricky market. She organized tradespeople, cleaners, our lawyers, and gardeners to help get the house ready for sale. She made everything easy to understand and kept us updated the whole way through. Luckily, the process was fairly short, and the right buyers came along in the end. We've bought and sold many properties over the years, and it's always a mission. Maria handled the business side with ease, but what really stood out was how she dealt with us and the buyers personally — she genuinely cared about both the people and the property. This was by far the easiest sale we've been through. If we ever move back to the West Coast, we'll be contacting Maria again without hesitation. Andrew Lister

Seller of 10 Mili Way, Ranui
Work extremely hard on the property, had an offer in 6 days, they did not complete the sale but Lance hustled hard to get us another offer which he secured and it was unconditional in 3 days……. Kept us updated on finding the final purchaser and it was a very clean and fast deal. The price was in his range of appraisal and we were happy with the final outcome.

Buyer of 3 Kukupa Road, Sunnyvale
Doug is the greatest asset you need when buying your home! When buying your first home it becomes a full time job, we were at our last brain cell when we found Doug who changed the experience from overwhelm and stress too calm and stress free! Justin and I bought our first home with Doug being the agent, he was extremely supportive and knowledgeable. Being through the process 1000x he was reassuring when worry would hit and a phone call away when we were confused. We hit a brick wall with our Lawyer who could have lost our entire deposit simply from not doing their job correctly but, thanks too Doug who helped us consult our lawyer and was the liaison between us and the home owner, having introduced us to the home owner who thankfully gave us grace after such a huge muck up. Doug lifted so much pressure and unnecessary weight off our shoulders, we were expecting our 3rd baby who was born the week of settlement so it was a very heavy and crazy week for us. Doug’s agency is beyond comparable, we couldn’t imagine our journey of buying our first home without him. I would add that it is very important to have an agent that you get along well with and Doug is that guy, he is very understanding of curve balls that life throws! If you know The Most High Lord Jesus Christ then he is a great agent for you as he is a man of faith that loves the Lord. Thank you so much for everything Doug, we couldn’t have done it without you by our side. Lots of love from the Carter-Clark whānau!
