This was the third property that Jayden has sold on my behalf and all went without a hitch.
Angela listened to everything we wanted while also guiding and advising for the best approach. She was always responsive to our needs and patient when we needed it. She was professional in her approach with a great sense of humor. Advising us along the way for the best outcomes but without being pushy to get a quick sale.
His work ethic & market knowledge..
Jayden came recommended to us by several people and we weren’t disappointed
Jayden was particularly helpful accommodating our request for an early viewing of the property when we could not attend the initial scheduled open home event. Subsequent communications were timely and kept us up-to-date with proceedings throughout. Jayden clearly knows the business well and his exceptional local knowledge insights were helpful. Jayden's guidance with using the Tall Poppy online system was also much appreciated. Being technologically challenged and not entirely comfortable with online forms and digital signatures we found ourselves 'converted' at the end of the sale and purchase process. To have completed those requirements without all the 'toing and froing' of traditional paper based systems was quite refreshing. Thank you Jayden - it's a pleasure doing business with you.
We had such an amazing experience working with Brendon Heenan from One Agency when purchasing 30 Aotaki Street, Ōtaki. Brendon was an absolute pleasure to deal with from start to finish. What made the experience even more special was having a local man selling to locals. He genuinely listened to us, was patient with our constant questions, and made the whole process feel easy and stress-free. Brendon was always approachable, happy to answer our questions, and provided honest advice. You can tell Brendon genuinely cares about the people he works with, not just the sale. His communication, effort, and willingness to go the extra mile made a real difference to us. Brendon is the ultimate agent, not just for sellers but for buyers too! We are so grateful to have had him as part of our home-buying journey and would happily recommend him to anyone looking to buy or sell. If you're wanting someone who is genuine, approachable, knowledgeable, and truly has your best interests at heart, Brendon is your man. Thank you, Brendon, for making the experience such a positive one. We couldn't have asked for a better person to work with! - Buyers of 30 Aotaki Street
We had a medical event mid listing and she was empathetic and caring allowing us time to deal with it eg not having people through during a difficult time. In our opinion she has all the qualities of an professional but relatable real estate agent. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend her.
Tracy was, in a word, amazing. She was kind, helpful, communicative, and patient. She is also exceptionally thoughtful and made our home purchase really special. An off hand comment we made at one point about a Meyer Lemon tree led her to get us one as a housewarming gift.
I can't recommend Derek enough. Selling our property wasn't the easiest road, but he stuck with us the whole way. He genuinely cares about his clients and puts real effort into getting the right result, not just a quick sale. He also works out how each client likes to be kept in the loop. I'm someone who will obsess over every little update, so Derek only got in touch when there was something I actually needed to know. It's a small thing, but it made the whole process far less stressful, and it's rare to find an agent who pays that much attention to the person behind the sale. The real highlight was my birthday, when Derek messaged to say he might have an interested party, even though our place wasn't on the market. Best birthday present I got. It worked out, and we've now bought where we want to be. Derek is also always out and about in Ōtaki, and he's a great ambassador for the town. You can tell he loves the community and is part of it. Thanks for everything, Derek. We're so happy with how it all turned out. Just maybe don't text me about work on my next birthday... actually, do. 😄

We'd heard about Jayden from friends and our own real estate agent had recently moved to another role so we were keen to try Jayden out. We were not disappointed. Open, honest communication, transparent on their offering and a realist about marketing, price point and what to expect in terms of approach to selling and the current market. The place sold quite quickly, we were happy with the offer, and conditions. Jayden kept us updated and informed all the way through, be it via phone, messenger or email. He is backed by a good team who take care of the admin aspects while he fronts the clients and does what he does best... sells. I'd have no hesitation in recommending Jayden to people in the market to sell their home, who want a good operator and a partner to work along side you.
