Grace made the process of purchasing my first property very easy and stress free. She had great communication and knowledge, which made the process a breeze. I couldn’t recommend her enough!

Offered advice on all aspects, even helping to declutter to enhance the appeal for the photo shoot.
I can’t recommend James highly enough. Buying my first home was a huge and scary experience, especially being based in Auckland while searching in Christchurch. James went above and beyond to make the process easy and manageable. While I was in Auckland, he personally viewed properties for me and video called me via WhatsApp so I could see the houses in real time. This gave me confidence to narrow down options without travelling for every viewing. When I travelled to Christchurch for two days, James had around 14 suitable properties lined up. He organised everything so well that my short trip was extremely productive and economical, ultimately leading me to the home I chose to make an offer on, which was accepted! James was incredibly supportive throughout the process, gave great advice, explained things clearly and made what could have been an overwhelming transaction much easier to understand. As a first-home buyer, that reassurance was invaluable. The only thing I would have appreciated was more encouragement to consider negotiating the purchase price. In the excitement of finding a home and having my offer accepted, I overlooked this and paid the full asking price. Looking back, I wish James had prompted me to consider whether there was room to negotiate. That said, this was a very small part of an otherwise exceptional experience. Even after settlement, James went the extra mile by doing a walk-through to ensure everything was in order and working as it should. This showed how committed he was to looking after me, not just getting the sale across the line. James was professional, responsive, knowledgeable, genuinely supportive and incredibly generous with his time. He made a daunting process much less stressful, and I’m extremely grateful for everything he did. I would absolutely recommend James to anyone looking to buy.
We found Andrew and Hayley very responsive and proactive in providing any information we needed. Chasing up possible buyers was superb as well as a myriad of contacts who are interested in our market. In a difficult market Andrew achieved a great price.
Shona's years of experience show and her attention to detail we believe made a difference in selling our property quickly.
Dot has been amazing right from the time she stepped in. She kept my husband and I in the loop with everything, big or small, and was just an absolute pleasure to deal with. One of the little things I loved was that after each show home, Dot would leave a few lollies on the bench for my children. Such a small thing, but so thoughtful and my kids loved it 😂 We are so grateful to have had Dot helping us through the process. She really went above and beyond and we couldn’t recommend her enough. ❤️ Will Miss you Dot
She always answered our constant questions and went out of her way to let us in multiple times organized contractors for us. And got things we needed for the house. Highly Recommend!!!
Nicole and the team at Ray White went over and above to help me sell this house. I was unlucky with my previous tenants and found my home in a state of dis repair whilst living 4 hours away. Nicole became estate agent and project manager extraordinaire and got my house back up and running ready to hit the market in no time. From hiring handy men to open homes it was all covered and I was communicated daily on progress. Truly went above and beyond any real estate team I have had before and if you dont list with them your doing a disservice to yourself and whoever buys your home!! The whole goal was to sell the home for what I wanted and against all odds she done it and in a few weeks. Some homes sell themselves..be assured mines was not one of those.. but with the sheer will and dedication Nicole and team got the job done. Thank you to you all.
Ferg made the process of selling our home simple and stress free from start to finish. He was upfront and honest about pricing expectations, kept us well informed throughout the campaign, and was always easy to reach when we had questions. His negotiation skills came through clearly at the pointy end of the sale, and he worked hard to get us a result we were happy with. What stood out most was how personable and approachable Ferg was throughout - he took the time to understand what mattered to us and managed the whole process with genuine care rather than just going through the motions. I'd have no hesitation recommending him to anyone looking to sell.
Nicole was great! We wanted to find somewhere to buy in the short 3 days we were looking in Rolleston for our move south from Wellington. Nicole showed us several properties and seemed genuinely interested in helping us. She wasnt pushy and took on our feedback about what we liked and what not so much. We couldn't believe the property we found was within our price range and when we said we wanted to make an offer on the place Nicole talked us through the contract and kept us updated on where things were at with the vendor. She even talked us through some of the covenants that I thought were very out the gate and eased my mind.
