It’s been a long journey for me getting the house to market. Mark Francis and his team have been with me every step of the way. Their communication skills have been top notch; I’ve been kept abreast of developments as soon as they occur. I couldn’t have gotten through the past few months without their friendly support and guidance. My sincere thanks go out to Mark, Yvette and Helen for all they have done. I highly recommend them if you are thinking of selling your home. You will be in the best hands.
Tony and his team made everything stress-free. Always professional and helpful. I really appreciated their support in achieving a great result with the sale of the property.
Working with Paige was a great experience from start to finish. She is incredibly professional, knowledgeable, and clearly has a strong understanding of the real estate market in Tauranga. Throughout the entire process, Paige was excellent to deal with. She communicated clearly and regularly, was always easy to get hold of, quick to respond to any questions, and very proactive in keeping things moving. I always felt well informed and knew exactly what was happening at every stage of the sale which made the whole process feel straightforward and stress-free. I also really appreciated the systems Collab have in place, particularly the open home feedback. It was great to receive regular updates and have a clear understanding of the feedback from potential buyers throughout the campaign. Most importantly, Paige achieved a price that I was happy with for the property in a tougher market and I felt that she worked hard to get the best possible outcome. Her professionalism, communication, market knowledge, and commitment throughout the process really stood out. I would have no hesitation in recommending Paige to anyone looking to sell their home in Tauranga or the wider Bay of Plenty. Thanks so much Paige, it was a pleasure working with you! :)
Paige was always available and willing to get the answers we needed when purchasing our home. Was not pushy at all. Would recommend
Jack and Sue showed a strong knowledge of the current market and were able to negoitiate an agreeable sale price for us. We were kept updated with Open Homes numbers and feedback from viewers.
How lucky we were to have settled on Gregers Andersen to assist with selling our home. From day one we felt Gregers was committed to achieving a great result, and so it turned out to be. If you're looking for a result you'll be happy with, we have no hesitation in recommending the best agent we have had dealings with - Gregers Andersen. Go on, if you're considering selling, give him a call. You won't be disappointed.
Gregers Andersen. Meeting Gregers for the first time, we found him to be a very measured person. Upon presenting his tailor-made marketing proposal and with his considerate approach, we knew he was the right agent to sell our home. The thought put into the photo shoot, marketing brochure and methods to reach our target market, together with the backing of the Baileys machine, was impressive. With Gregers understanding of the changing market, he regularly kept us abreast of market conditions. Bringing together our sale, he displayed a real sense of professionalism and an understanding of our new requirements; he found the right home for us to move to. Gregers is a skilled real estate salesperson with great perception, integrity and, together with his efficient approach, is an agent you can put your full trust in. Thanks Gregers, Terry Baker

We had an excellent experience working with Sara throughout the purchase of our first home. From the very beginning, she was professional, approachable, and always willing to answer our questions. She kept us informed every step of the way, making what could have been a stressful process feel straightforward and manageable. Sara’s communication was outstanding, and she genuinely had our best interests at heart. Nothing was ever too much trouble, and Sara went above and beyond to ensure everything progressed smoothly.

From the prompt arrival of Jack at our listing enquiry, to the sale by auction of our property we couldn't fault Sue or Jack. We mainly dealt with Sue and felt supported and informed during the whole process. All questions were answered promptly and she made sure that all information was accurate. Due to our circumstances Sue has given after sales service that was not expected, but appreciated very much.
