Tania is a star! I would highly recommend her. She is pleasant to deal with and never gives up. She worked hard to achieve the aim.
I can not speak highly enough of Justin. Having met him in late 2023 there was no-one else I was going to reach out to when I decided to sell. I appreciate everything he did to facilitate the sale, his honesty, professionalism, guidance, time and advice. He listened with genuine interest to what I had to say, kept me in the loop all the way through and made the experience relatively stress free. It was an awesome result, that I am truly grateful for. Thank you Justin - you're the best :)
Had a fantastic experience with Elke and can highly recommend, kept us informed the whole way through. Sold the property for a good price and was always in touch with pricing around the area.
Elke Nicholl had a lot of knowledge about the house and answered any questions we had professionally,She also took the time to meet us on our time and not hers. All round she was very professional and friendly

After 60+ years and 5 generations through the house I came to to the realisation it was time to sell up the whanau homestead and begin a new chapter for our family story. It was not a decision I made lightly. After a couple of open homes I came across Shontelle and kind of knew she was the one to call back and ask to be our agent . We got on really well from the get go. She was easy to talk to and has heaps of real estate knowledge. All my worries were put at ease from woah to go. She knows the market, the flow of things, patterns and trends and market behaviour. When we finally went to market it was a week turn around and I was sold. Yep, just like that. Shontelle helped me through it all. Even the follow questions keeping me focussed to deal with after stuff and paperwork. I've purchased my new forever home. 2 days after selling. Yep, again, just like that. I will always bet on Shontelle. She's awesome

Shontelle was great with quick communication and knowledge about the area very professional and hope to work with her again
Heather was fantastic to work with throughout the purchase of 72 Keyte Street. As new investors to the area, we really appreciated how helpful, responsive, and knowledgeable she was. She made the process straightforward and was always available to answer questions and guide us through the local market. We’re very grateful for her support and would happily recommend her to anyone buying or selling in the area.

Heather was fantastic to work with, she helped me navigate the emotion of selling and balanced it with practical advice and support without being pushy or solely focussed on getting the house sold. It was my first sale of a property and she assisted me through all steps with patience and kindness but also with empowering nudges to see sense in offers and provided great perspective when it mattered the most. Very pleased with the outcome but also the way her and the team at Harcourts worked with me through the steps in a tight market.
Stephanie from the moment we meet, sold herself very well, and gave us an accurate appraisal (we had 3) From the moment she walked in to the house she had a buyer in mind (but she did not disclose this to us at that time) The house was sold b4 it went on the market, but still put up a for sale sign, which I asked her to remove. She did. She made an appointment, with the buyer, at a time that I told her that I could not attend, & she upset when I didn't arrive at the time wit h the keys. I also told her that we would be working on the property up to & including settlement day. I was at the property at 7am this morning, finishing off.. b4 hand over. Over all I felt that she had a buyer after the 1st inspection (& this sale was easy money for her)
Made contact with stephanie as we have dealt with her in the past, I was looking for a house to flip as this is what we do and she was all over it, Looked at property 2 days later and negotiated an offer with the vendors off market so win,win for both parties. And will also be selling the property once finished with stephanie as she gets results.
