Seller of 9 Samuel Place, Terrace End
Team van Lienen are the Elite Core Group in their field. Without a doubt, their professionalism, communication skills and style are second to none. I’ve had the utmost confidence and privilege in doing business on 3 seperate occasions over 2 1/2 years with John Michelle and Kirsten. Their success, my success comes through their strong commitment and ability to listening to the Vendor, understanding the market and doing the hard yards.
Seller of 96 Clifton Terrace, Fitzherbert
Our property had been on the market for 5 months without a sale prior to Team van Lienan getting involved. John & Michelle gave us real confidence that they saw what was special about our property, and how to present it to the market. With a clear vision and strategy agreed the photos and video were done with some small tweaks to some rooms, and complete layout changes in other rooms. John, Michelle, and Kristen were moving the furniture, doing the heavy lifting, and we were very impressed. The people who came to view the property seemed to arrive with a pretty good idea of what type of a property they were coming to consider, and while it wasn’t for everyone I believe the marketing had delivered with serious interest and not really any tyre kickers. We had to wait a while longer for the sale but team van Lienan remand committed to the extent they ran open homes on the Sunday and Monday of Kings birthday weekend just in case it would get us the result we were all looking for. Many thanks to Team van Lienan and particularly Michelle who really put in the leg work with the open homes, following up all leads of enquiry, chasing the Lawyers along, and ultimately got us the result.

Seller of 29 Fry Road, Halcombe
Lauren and Kearsley were very good to work with. Their knowledge of the area, the market and more importantly working with us closely to provide the advice and decision making all ultimately reaching a good outcome for us all.
Seller of 1460 Pohangina Road, Pohangina
Lauren was well researched & informed at our very first meeting point at our parents family home, with it's many challenges!! She made it seem possible to sell when l was feeling totally overwhelmed.. Her vision & positivity gave me the drive to actually like a property that l never found easy. And in fact felt all it's potential albeit with it's great many faults & challenges.. Lauren's committment, communication skills & integrity are her wonderful qualities that she should always value. My husband wanted to support a local female agent, with local knowledge, & that was crucial to this property selling .. And to that point, Lauren came back to us, as a family with up to date information, a proposal & a plan to list the property in a very timely manner that made the point of difference! She demonstrated her efficiency & gave us the confidence to list with her & the agency, Harcourts.
Seller of 79 North Street, Feilding
Working with Lauren from Harcourts was the best decision I could have made for my first home sale. From our very first conversation, she combined deep market knowledge with clear, thoughtful communication and unwavering professionalism. What might have been a stressful, uncertain process felt structured and calm because Lauren set expectations, explained each step in plain language, and backed her advice with evidence and experience. I always knew where we were, what came next, and crucially why each decision would position the property for the best outcome. Brilliant market knowledge was evident from day one. Lauren arrived prepared with a concise, data driven appraisal that showed recent comparable sales, nuances between streets and school zones, and how buyer demand had been shifting over the previous months. That context helped me understand price positioning and choose the right strategy with confidence.I recommend Lauren from Harcourts without hesitation. If you want an agent who brings sharp insight to pricing and strategy, communicates proactively and clearly at every step, and upholds the highest professional standards from appraisal to settlement, Lauren is exceptional. She turned what I expected to be a stressful chapter into a smooth, well run campaign, and I would choose to work with her again in a heartbeat.

Seller of 6 Drury Street, Cloverlea
We had an outstanding experience working with Fletcher. From the beginning his positive energy stood out and gave us confidence. He kept us informed every step of the way, making sure we always knew what was happening. His professionalism made the process worry free and he achieved a fab result for us. I highly recommend his services to anyone looking to sell or buy a property. Harcourts are lucky to have him on their team.
Buyer of 78 Manson Street, Terrace End
Fletcher was a pleasure to deal with. Very helpful, friendly, informative and nothing was too much of a problem. We encountered a delay with the first property I put in an offer for (Vendor issue not agent) and the property was unfortunately withdrawn from the market. Fletcher had kept me informed with every delay and it was much appreciated, so I was aware of everything that was happening. He sent me info on other properties that could be of interest, and left me to decide if I'd like to view any. In the end we had a favorable outcome on my 2nd property offer and this went as smooth as it possibly could. Nothing is a problem for Fletcher and I would be more than happy to deal with him again and I couldn't reccomend him highly enough to any prospective buyer out there. Thank you Fletcher for everything and im so looking forward to enjoying my new home 🏡 😊

Buyer of 276B Number 2 Line, Okoia
Paula and Dom are very professional, knowledgeable and excellent communicators. They kept us up to date and they made the process as easy as possible. They walked the length of the property, and we felt they really tried to understand us and what we wanted to achieve.
From the beginning when we met Paula at the open home, she has been nothing short of amazing. She was welcoming, professional, helpful, honest and reliable and went out of her way to provide us with answers to any questions we had, guide us through the process and kept us well informed. That combination helped us through the roller coaster of buying a new home. Our sincerest thanks to you and your team. I would have no hesitation in recommending you to anyone that is also searching for their dream, whether that be selling or purchasing. Ngā mihi ki te kapa John and Casey
