Agencies in Rapaki, Canterbury

Overall, we had a good experience selling our home. Our property was on the market for around five weeks, and throughout the campaign we appreciated the clear and consistent communication from our agent. We were kept well informed after every open home, with honest feedback about prospective buyers and some realistic discussions around price expectations, which helped us understand the market and make informed decisions. From the beginning, we weren't completely convinced that auction was the right sales method for our property. While we understood the reasoning behind the recommendation, our home didn't sell at auction, as we had anticipated, and the additional auction costs were disappointing. In hindsight, we feel those costs could have been avoided. Following the auction, our agent remained committed to achieving a sale and ultimately secured a cash buyer. Although the final sale price was lower than we had hoped, we recognise that it reflected the current market conditions rather than a lack of effort on the agent's part. Our only other reservation was the commission. At around $36,000, it is a considerable fee, and while we understood and agreed to the commission structure when we signed the contract, we couldn't help but feel it was high relative to the work involved. Overall, our agent was professional, approachable, and communicated well throughout the process. While there are aspects of the experience we would have preferred to be different, we appreciate the work that went into achieving a sale in a challenging market and would recommend them to anyone looking for an experienced real estate agent.

My real estate journey with Emma has been a joy.

An absolute pleasure to have worked with Emma and would never hesitate to engage her again for any real estate needs.
