Eric and Yvenna’s team did a fantastic job selling our home. Eric was professional, easy to work with, and kept us well informed throughout the process. His advice helped present our property at its best, and the auction was brought forward, achieving a result well beyond our expectations. We greatly appreciated his hard work and would highly recommend him.

We were nothing short of impressed with Jamie's work throughout the sale of our home. His communication, professionalism, approachability and presentation were exceptional from start to finish. Despite managing multiple property sales, Jamie consistently maintained an outstanding level of dedication throughout the campaign. We are incredibly grateful for his guidance, support, and expertise, which made what can often be a stressful experience feel genuinely stress-free. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend Jamie to anyone looking to sell their home, and would absolutely trust him and his team again for any future property sales & purchases. He's certainly regarded, in our opinion, as one of Hamilton's best agents. Thank you, Jamie!

Jamie was incredible from beginning to end. His communication really stood out from our very first interaction (prompt replies, flowers, coffee voucher and an inform pack), we genuinely felt like we were his only clients, despite his extensive portfolio of listings. That level of attention, detail and service is a true reflection of his experience and professionalism. Jamie runs a professional campaign, (partnering with a-class photographers custom scented candles for open homes). This secured us a fantastic sale and Jamie provided solid advice and recommendations throughout the process. He kept us informed every step of the way, making what can often be a stressful experience feel smooth and manageable. On top of that, Jamie is a bit of a character, which brought some humour to what can otherwise be a stressful process. His positive energy and approachable nature made him an absolute pleasure to work with. We would highly recommend Jamie to anyone looking to sell (or buy). In a tighter market, his communication, expertise, and dedication make all the difference. Thanks heaps Jamie, we genuinely appreciate you helping us wrap up our chapter here in the Waikato.

In 2020, during the first big lockdown, Jamie did an incredible job selling our family home, so there was no question when we needed to entrust an agent with the selling of our family home, designed by our parents in the 70’s, that Jamie was the only one we needed to ask. Jamie treats every listing like it’s his only listing and his attention to details, large and small are what set him apart. Jamie is always honest and he guides you calmly through every step of the way. With Jamie you always have a laugh along the way, making the whole process feel relaxed and easy. His marketing and quick turn around, were brilliant. We had 4 parties bidding at the auction, others waiting in case it didn’t sell, plus a huge number through all the open homes, creating the perfect situation on auction day, where it sold under the hammer. Jamie is a great communicator and was great at negotiating with all the parties involved. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Jamie and his team to anyone who appreciates efficiency and care. Thanks again, Kindest regards The Jack Family
