Jan-Louise was tireless in organising and managing open homes and an excellent reader of where my house might be positioned in the market. But her real strength lay in working with interested buyers. She had an intuitive grasp of their expectations-as well as the seller’s! When it became clear that the house required a degree of retrospective consent, she remained unflappable, allaying anxiety and maintaining a steady pace towards bringing the property to auction. I suspect that this was in large measure due to her experience which when put together with her ability to judge people conveyed a calm confidence. It was this combination of skills that worked so well to keep me the buyer on track and to allay my anxieties over the process of selling. Additionally, she liased brilliantly with family members who carried much of the administrative load for me. They too were impressed with the way she worked alongside them. For me, her approach was exactly what I needed. I would recommend her highly.

Lillie completely looked after us throughout the whole process. This made selling a truly stressless experience. Excellent communication and knows her market - particularly how and where to advertise.
When Rebecca made the video of the property she expressed how walking into the property made her feel rather than just walking round the house showing each room. This made for a much more captivating video. Full details of all the viewings were sent to me very promptly with realistic comments about the quality of each interaction. The final negotiations were handled very professionally.
Patrick was an absolute pleasure to work with. He’s warm, friendly, and genuinely easy to deal with, which made what could have been a stressful process feel straightforward. We had strong interest straight away, with offers coming in within the first week on the market, and he helped us achieve a really solid result. I always felt that Patrick had our best interests at heart, which made the whole experience smooth and well-supported. I’d happily recommend him to anyone looking to sell.
Emma was incredible when we required our house to be sold within a quick timeframe. She swept in & assisted us with a strong plan, and supported/guided us throughout our journey. An outstanding communicator, Emma kept us updated every step of the way. Emma radiates a natural warmth & energy along with the ability to stay calm under pressure. With significant experience and knowledge to boot we wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Emma to our friends and family. Thank you Emma for supporting our family move into this next chapter of our lives.
Emma has unrivalled knowledge of the Lyttelton market and stands apart from other agents. Her care and enthusiasm are genuine, and as an excellent communicator, she made it possible for me to sell my property from a distance with complete confidence. Throughout the process, Emma followed through promptly and thoroughly, providing regular buyer feedback that helped me make informed decisions at every step. Frankly, I couldn't have done it without her.
'Emma came up with a good outcome for what was at times a difficult sale' 'She was realistic and a nice person to deal with' 'She communicated really well with the family and always kept us in the loop. Thanks Emma Recommend this agent highly
