Agencies in Linwood, Canterbury

The sale of our property was always going to be extraordinary. For a start it had been owned and used as our family home since 1980. The 121 year old house showed the effects of use, weather and earthquakes over its long life. Michael picked up on the strong emotional connection and our preference not to go through the drama of an auction. Rather the choice was made to market it in it’s as is where is condition as there were good long term tenants living there. As well as age the property the property had a unique charm which Michael made use of in his advertising. He kept us appraised of the mood and comments of attendees at every open home. There were some embarrassingly low initial Offers but Michael said it just needed the right buyer to respond to the online advertising or open homes. Michael had James Ellis stand in when he went on holidays. What he had predicted came true and after several well attended open homes, James presented us with multiple offers. Throughout the sales process, Michael Fisher was calm, cheerful, optimistic and professional. We are immensely grateful for how he handled the sale and his sensitivity to our needs. Praise also for the Harcourts Holmwood team who facilitated a valuable contribution to the final negotiations. Kind regards, Glenn McRostie

Chris was wonderful to work with, very flexible for viewing times and property access. Easy going and relatable. We enjoyed having Chris support us through this process.

Super helpful, went out of his way to make the whole experience easy

Andrew was outstanding with his service and integrity. I have had the pleasure of purchasing a home from Andrew a few years back and was pleased to see his care and intension to details is still second to none. I would highly recommend in any real estate transaction. Thanks, Glen.

Not into feedback surveys

The flexibility and availability shown by the team when demand of repairs to our house with deadlines looming was superb. Nothing regarding support requested of the team sounded too much and communication was prompt when decision making and information was sought. All our questions regarding the housing market were explained well to allay any concerns especially regarding the negotiations of sale. If you want great listeners with counseling tact and debriefing skills then look no further. They have professionalism down pact.

Danean was absolutely amazing to work with in so many ways. From the very beginning, her clear, structured, and thorough explanation of each step in the process immediately set a reassuring and professional tone for the entire sale. She brought a level of clarity that removed uncertainty and made what can often feel like a daunting experience seem straightforward and well-managed. Throughout the process, Danean remained consistently calm, composed, and highly dependable. Her regular updates ensured we always felt informed and in control, and her steady presence during the auction itself was invaluable — she was a true rock at a critical moment, providing both guidance and reassurance when it mattered most. The two standout qualities I really want to highlight are her exceptional communication skills and her genuine kindness. Danean has a rare ability to explain complex matters in a simple, accessible way, while also actively listening and responding with thoughtfulness and care. She is not only highly competent and professional, but also incredibly personable, approachable, and supportive. It’s clear that Danean goes above and beyond for her clients, combining expertise with a genuinely human touch. Working with her was an outstanding experience, and I would wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for a dedicated, skilled, and genuinely exceptional professional.

Danean has been so incredibly helpful and communicative with as we went through the process of buying our first home. She was transparent about the process and always made time to answer our questions (there were many) both via email and in person. She even made time to ensure we had a clear understanding of what to expect on auction day which we found SUPER helpful. She’s kind and had a ‘no question is a silly question’ attitude. 100/10 can’t recommended her enough

From first to last Julie displayed a high degree of integrity, being highly organised. It was a pleasure to do business with her and given the opportunity I would highly recommend her as a competent real estate agent.

Scott helped me purchase 2/557 Gloucester Street in Linwood, and the whole experience was seamless. Living overseas, I needed someone I could trust to find a high-yield investment, and Scott absolutely delivered. Even over the Christmas/New Year period—when things usually slow right down—he brought me a strong off-market opportunity that turned out to be a great win. Really appreciate the effort he put in over the festive season, and I’m looking forward to buying and selling more properties with him in the future.

We had the absolute pleasure of working with Scott to sell our property, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience. From the very beginning, Scott was professional, approachable, and highly knowledgeable about the market. He guided us through every step of the process with clear communication and honest advice, which made the entire journey stress-free. Scott went above and beyond to ensure our property was presented in the best possible way, and his dedication and expertise really shone through. Thanks to his hard work and strategic approach, we achieved our goal. What stood out most was Scott’s genuine care – he listened to our needs, kept us informed at all times, and always made us feel like a priority. His professionalism, attention to detail, and friendly nature made the whole experience seamless. We highly recommend Scott to anyone looking to buy or sell property. He is an outstanding real estate agent who truly delivers on his promises.

It was a pleasure working with him. He was professional, easy to talk to, and always kept me updated throughout the process. His knowledge of the market and negotiation skills really stood out, and it was clear he genuinely wanted the best outcome for me. I’d happily recommend him to anyone looking for someone reliable, trustworthy, and great to work with.

I just got my first home with the help from Hayden. Buying a house for the first time is a lot of information, but Hayden helped me massively. He was my buyers agent, so I was surprised that even though from my understanding he wasn't getting as much out of it as the other agents it did not reflect his efforts to help. Helping me with finding properties focusing on what I want and sharing helpful advice. Professional relatable honest and hard working. Easy to communicate with and was able to communicate to a first home buyer like me. 100% recommend him for sure. 10/10 amazing dude!

From the very beginning of the process and all the way until the end, Team Holly Jones have absolutely gone above and beyond. We met with several agents before deciding to go with this team, and ultimately we decided because of Ricky’s energy and confidence. This team were confident we would achieve a sale price at least 40k higher than other agencies, and they not only pulled through, but made it seem easy. The communication and access to the whole team put our minds at ease and we felt so supported through the whole process. Charlotte Mason in particular was an absolute delight to work with. Charlotte and the team managed to get us offers beyond our expectation at a deadline that was bought forward, and when our first accepted offer fell through, we had another exceptional offer presented to us within 12 hours. This was also pulled together by the rest of the team at the drop of a hat when our main contact was away. We honestly felt as though we must have been the only house they were selling, we just got so much care and attention. We are absolutely certain we would not achieved this sale price and so quickly with other agents. We would recommend this team to anyone looking to sell. It’s well worth the investment!

Holly’s appraisal was high and the results the team got was even higher. Great communication, and professional throughout the whole process.

The team made the selling process super easy and communication was clear and simple. Everyone I dealt with was professional and the photographer did a great job for the marketing. I would recommend for anyone selling in the future.

Excellent communicator and knows the market. Trust his negotiating skills and recommendations made throughout the process.

Very responsive to texts and emails which helps the process.

Tom and Jake were fantastic to deal with. Nothing was an issue for them. They communicated well and provided valuable, timely advice / feedback throughout the process, even making themselves available when needed while overseas on holiday. We’re really happy with the sale and understand the purchasers are too. I would highly recommend and will work with them again.

As a nervous first-time seller, I could not have asked for a better agent than Jo. My property was tenanted with six months still remaining on the lease, which added an extra layer of complexity, but Jo handled everything with professionalism, patience, and care. She guided me through the process clearly and calmly, even when I was slow responding to important emails, and achieved an excellent outcome. I am very grateful for her support and would happily recommend her.

Jo was on my side! She was engaged and responsive

The whole process was professional. Right from the beginning Jess was friendly and helpful throughout, the communication was spot on and with the right advice with her experience it was a quick sale. I definitely would contact Jess again in the future. I was very happy with the outcome. Thank you.
