Shona was great through the selling but once property sold, no more communication. Disappointing regards Barbara McPeake
Working with Shona was an absolute game-changer. When it came to selling my house in Hastings, her advice was invaluable. She gave a brilliant, practical suggestions on how to prepare the property before going to market - like declattering and other tweaks which made the house look absolutely beautiful and vastly improved its appeal. What truely blew me away was that her support didn't stop with the sale. She went completely above and beyond by reviewing and giving honest, expert feedback on houses I was considering buying in an entirely different region. Shona's dedication, communication, and genuine care made a stressful transition so much easier. I can't recommend her highly enough!
Highly recommend Harman! As first-time home buyers, we had endless questions, but Harman was incredibly patient, knowledgeable, and responsive throughout the whole process. He took the stress out of buying our first home and guided us every step of the way. Thank you, Harman, for your amazing support!"
We asked Toni for her advice on how to maximise the sale of the property. It was an estate sale and the home was empty, so we followed her recommendations around preparation and presentation, and it made a huge difference. Once staged, the property felt like a home again and presented beautifully both online and in person. I was absolutely stoked with the photos and marketing. We had 17 groups through the first open home and received 7 offers in the first week, which was an amazing result. Toni’s communication was great throughout the whole process. I always knew what was happening and felt like I was in safe hands. She was on the ball, went above and beyond and made the whole process easy. Toni knows the market, is approachable and easy to deal with. She would absolutely be my go-to agent in the future and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her.
Working with Harry to purchase our property was an outstanding experience from start to finish. From our very first viewing, they stood out for their transparency, professionalism, and genuine approach. Communication was seamless throughout the entire journey. Harry kept us updated at every single stage, promptly answered all of our questions, and ensured we always felt informed and confident during negotiations. In an industry where clear information is vital, their honesty was incredibly refreshing—there were never any hidden surprises, just straightforward guidance and reliable advice. Thanks to their dedication and calm expertise, what is often a stressful process felt smooth and well-managed. We couldn't be happier with our new home, and we would highly recommend Harry to anyone looking to buy or sell real estate.
This was the first time we used Eddie as an Agent selling our property. From beginning to the end it was a seamless process. With Eddie’s guidance, knowledge and fantastic communication and negotiation skills we achieved an excellent result. We found Eddie to be very honest and will definitely be using him again in the near future.

Leonie was absolutely fantastic through our recent house sale. Kept us patient for the outcome they we wanted and delivered on all accounts as she was also responsible for us purchasing our dream home. We will be forever grateful for her efforts, keep up the great work!
Harry was a great help not only in selling my place but also providing support after the (quick) sale. I had already left the area and he went above and beyond to sort out a couple of issues and keep everything on track, which has helped make a stressful process a lot easier. He's knowledgeable, friendly, professional, and gives great advice. He really listens to your needs and concerns, then talks through options to find the best result possible for you. I highly recommend Harry and wish he was in Auckland to help me buy a new place!
Excellent communication with frequent updates and clear feedback about marketing progress, expectations and property visits. Eddie provided sound advice and explained all options clearly. He was very professional and promoted our property well, achieving a good result in a popular market category.
Upinder Dadrah was our nominated estate agent from Eastern Realty Ltd, Bayley's to handle the sale of the property. Upinder was a pleasure to deal with. As we had no previously experience of selling a property, we relied on Upinder to guide us through the complete process. From our very frist meeting he had a plan in place to present the property in the best possible way. Set up process that we could follow, keeping us informed of any and all updates. He made himself available at any time to answer any concerns we had during the sale process at a difficult time. Thankyou Upinder and the Bayley's team for completing the sale of the property to the satsfaction of all.
