Buyer of 102 Oakley Avenue, Springlands
We recently worked with Samantha to buy a property in Marlborough, and we cannot recommend her highly enough. She truly went above and beyond to ensure our real estate journey was smooth, successful, and entirely stress-free. Communication Style: Samantha is an exceptional communicator. She was available 24/7—answering our texts and calls whether it was the weekend, a public holiday, or literally midnight. We never felt left in the dark because she kept us updated every single step of the way. Market Knowledge: Her deep understanding of the local Marlborough market was evident from our very first meeting. She provided sharp, data-driven insights that helped us make informed, confident decisions in the region. Negotiation Skills: Samantha is a powerhouse negotiator. She advocated for our best interests with absolute precision, securing a fantastic outcome on our property purchase that exceeded our expectations. Professionalism: Throughout the entire process, she maintained the highest level of professionalism while remaining incredibly warm, patient, and approachable. If you want an agent who is deeply dedicated, tirelessly available, and highly skilled, look no further than Samantha. She serves her clients with unmatched passion!

Samantha was excellent. As soon as there was a chance I would need to list my house she had everything booked in so we could go live quickly and make the most of weekends for open homes. She communicated very well throughout the process and helped me to get the best price possible. Highly recommend
Seller of 33 Park Terrace, Blenheim
Sam helped us navigate the sale of our property with knowledge and patience. There were different family members to keep on the same page and we all felt well informed throughout the process. While it didnt seem like the best time to sell a property, we were all really happy with the outcome at the auction - Thank you Sam!

Seller of 420 Wakamarina Road, Canvastown
We found both Marty Birch and Michelle Caldwell were always great communicators who were very market savvy and personable in their approach. Our rurally located property took nearly 12 months to sell but we were happy to rely on Marty and Michelle to keep us updated and they continued to present valid offers from prospective buyers. We have had previous offers presented and accepted only to have the buyer change their mind and to leave us all frustrated accordingly. Full credit to Marty for not giving up and we valued his sincerity and honesty about what to do in order to achieve a sales result for us. Their tenacity has paid off and we have now sold our property
Seller of 3178 Blackwood Bay, Blackwood Bay
I cannot fault Martyn at all in our sale process. We had a lot of issues that arose and in every instance Martyn found a solution to help us achieve our sale. Went far beyond any real estate agent I have ever dealt with previously. Excellent communication skills and a fantastic attitude to his work. I cannot recommend him enough
Seller of Lot 4 North West Bay, North West Bay
Martyn negotiated very well with the purchaser to get a good price for us in a difficult market. His online marketing was good, easy to talk to. Perhaps slow in advising us our initial hopes were unrealistic, but with more than one owner and an unrealistic GV that is understandable. It took 3 years to sell.
