Great communication throughout the process. Very impressed with the extras that they happily organised, such as a property inspection, cleaners and staging. Market knowledge was very evident and negotiation skills lead to a quick and successful sale. We would certainly use Ganesh if we were buying or selling again.
5 Ayr Street Kaikorai
Once again, Ganesh and Renee have done a fantastic job selling one of our homes. Having worked with them on several properties now, we’ve really come to appreciate not only their professionalism and dedication, but also the personal relationship we’ve built with them over the years. They always keep us well informed, work incredibly hard to get the best possible result, and make sure everything is handled properly from start to finish. We’ve always felt we could trust them completely, and it’s been a pleasure working with them each time. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to anyone looking to sell their home.

Alice seemed genuinely interested in making the process as smooth as possible, and helped us overcome some challenges during the sale process. She was enthusiastic about our home and worked hard to get the right people through the house. We knew where we stood from start to finish. I would recommend Alice to anyone wanting to sell their home.

Alice was always quick to respond to questions and requests and guided us thoughtfully throughout the process. Our last house purchase was over 20 years ago so we were very grateful for her advice and support.

Everyone around you when selling and buying a house thinks it’s a very exciting time. In reality, it’s very stressful and it’s hard to feel excited until you’ve finally moved into your new house! 🏠 🎉 Alice and the team surrounded us with support from the get go. Responsive is an understatement! Very professional, yet friendly and down to earth. Great market knowledge of our area with a realistic yet determined approach. A feeling that you’re in it together and you can tell they are committed to getting you the best outcome possible. We were doing a quick campaign to try to align with the settlement date of a house we’d fell in love with. Complete whirlwind of numerous open homes, constantly providing us with feedback and reasonable ideas to satisfy potential buyers. An emotional roller coaster ride at times. Waves of feeling like it was hopeless. So, we would meet up with Alice and instantly be reassured. She would remind us that it only takes 1 buyer and would focus us back on the positive aspects when we had slipped into the negatives. Looking back now as we start our new journey in our wonderful new house, we are so grateful that they accompanied us on this journey. They made the whole process so much easier and we felt that they genuinely cared about us. They work so hard in the background and it’s obvious that they love what they do. Alice, Abby and team - keep smashing it! Thankyou so much ❤️

A very busy person, but aided by Jaime, gets the job done. Not fazed by our house needing some reno and DIY (as some other agents were), but of the opinion that price will fix the issue - which suited us. Sharon & Jaime take a practical and down to earth approach and get the deal done. Sold before deadline with a clean, unconditional offer. Would use them again.
138 Anderson Road Wanaka
Sharon was able to share her market knowledge and act with strong professionalism at a very high standard, giving us confidence and trust in her ability to execute the sale of our home with the best outcome for us.

Trista showed a level of professionalism, knowledge, responsiveness and genuinely committed to helping us achieve the best outcome. Their communication throughout the entire process was outstanding — always keeping us informed, answering all our questions promptly, and making everything feel smooth and stress-free. We really appreciated their honesty, attention to detail, and strong understanding of the market. We highly recommend Trista to anyone looking to sell property.

It was our first auction and we were very nervous. Glad one house was before us that night to understand the process. Loved it being Easter for the chocolate thanks. We were fortunate to be in circumstances of being financially unconditional so could have passed on the house. Leanne allowed different viewing times to go back and look at the house with a builder. Her lovely smile brightened my day. Queries were answered in a timely manner and I think she had to move her coat about 4 times while I took pictures. Soooo glad she heard a doorbell too. I knew we weren't going crazy. It hasn't rung since though. Communication is the cornerstone to most interactions being happy. Each house we bought had been empty upon inspection so it was good to know if anything was awry afterwards that there was a process to follow. Previous owners were also lovely by letting us keep the washing machine and fridge/freezer. I reckon, apart from marriage, it's the biggest financial commitment. As time goes on, most industries seem to have paperwork up the wazoo so please thank Leanne for her lovely personality, knowledge and smile to make it a smooth, calm experience. We're doing it up already so are knackered but hopefully the previous owners would be proud. Looking for tenants to suit the home and, as our builder said, "it's in the utopia for location". Thanks LJ Hooker team. Kind regards. Raelene Abernethy
