Real estate teams in Parkvale, Bay of Plenty

Absolutely outstanding from start to finish. Katia checked in regularly via text, calls and emails, kept me informed at every step, reassured me when things felt wobbly, and handled tricky situations with calm professionalism. Katia is wise beyond her years, she was deeply committed to both the vendor and myself, guiding me through the process while I worked full-time and parented two children. What truly sets her apart is that she genuinely cares. I felt that throughout — even though I wasn’t a direct Bower client. Katia is one to watch, not for a pushy sales approach, but for the relationships she builds, the integrity she shows, and the time and care she invests in people. I’ll always be grateful for her support during one of the hardest years of my life.

We have used a large number of Real Estate Agents over the years and in the last year have sold 4 homes with Brent Bastin and Andre Stewart from Bastin Group, part of Bower in Tauranga. What a real difference working working with this team has made! The whole experience from appraisal, to marketing plan, to going live then negotiation and sale, we have felt excited, informed, reassured, listened to, and elated with the final results over all 4 property sales. The team dynamic works in the vendors favour as every person in the team has their strengths and niche skills making the whole experience seamless and exceptional. Andre remains calm, dedicated and in control of the campaign, alongside Brent; who brings unmatched market knowledge, enthusiasm & outside the box expertise while remaining humble and approachable. Everyone in the Bastin Group team is friendly & professional and the communication etiquette throughout the entire process has been spot on. We look forward to working with Brent Bastin and Andre Stewart in the future and would recommend them (and have done) to anyone looking to sell their home in the Tauranga area.

We had a wonderful experience working with Andre. From the beginning, he was professional, approachable, and very knowledgeable. Andre guided us through the process with patience and honesty, always taking the time to answer our questions and explain everything clearly. What we appreciated most was his genuine care and dedication — it never felt like just a transaction. He went above and beyond to make sure everything went smoothly, and we are truly grateful for the support. We highly recommend Andre and Brent to anyone looking to buy or sell a home. Thank you for making this such a positive and stress-free experience!
