Real estate teams in Royal Oak, Auckland

Prompt and excellent communicators, really helping the vendor and buyer. Good people! Super accomodating and felt like they were genuinely invested in our outcome!

I honestly couldn’t have asked for better agents than Sarah and Julie. From the start, they gave really honest and realistic advice about pricing, which made such a difference. They’re incredibly knowledgeable and experienced, and I always felt like I was in very safe hands — no pressure, no hype, just straightforward advice I could trust. At no point did I feel like I was being taken for a ride, which meant a lot. They also helped stage my home beautifully — it looked better than I ever thought it could, and I’m sure that made a big impact on the sale. What stood out the most though was the communication. I always knew what was going on, and Sarah and Julie were quick to respond whenever I had questions (and I had a lot!). It just felt like they genuinely cared about getting the best result for me. Even after the sale, they’ve still been there — checking in, giving advice on next steps, and just being really helpful when I needed it. I’d 100% recommend Sarah and Julie to anyone. Such a great experience from start to finish.

My parent's 100 year old deceased estate bought 50 years ago was a little time capsule. So starting out on the sale process we wanted someone with empathy and understanding for what my parents home was and could be to the right buyer. While other real estate agents all suggested painting ceilings, remodelling kitchens, staging with modern furniture and generally spending a fortune Sarah and Julie were the exceptional exception from the moment we met them. Standing in the front doorway their first words were, "You don't see them like this anymore, don't you change a thing." Geometric brown and orange wallpapers, old style couches with matching upholstery, warped skirting, paint on sash windows that had seen better days, their advice shone through as genuine and authentic. They fully appreciated what they were looking at and told us to leave everything as it is. Do not pretend to be anything other than what you are. Our biggest pre photography task was making sure all the light bulbs went. By the end of their photo and drone shoot the house looked amazing, warts and all. Their communications were regular and informative and their advise invaluable the whole way through. When questioned they had convincing, rational reasons justifying their approach. Their experience, not just in presenting the house but in their ongoing marketing strategy, their communication and their advice on whether to accept an increased offer or push for more was flawless. Shaken hands were soon replaced with hugs and I sincerely couldn't recommend any Real Estate Agent more than Sarah and Julie. A fantastic team that I felt an integral part of. Thank you both for your tireless work and swift result in what is a very difficult market for sellers.

Hayley was engaging and personable from the first meeting, always willing to help answer any questions, alongside giving us strong advice on the market. She has been extremely accomodating with private viewing. Would highly recommend both Hayley and Roberta to anyone looking to sell or buy.

Hayley and Roberta were fantastic to deal with. They communicated clearly, were clear on our needs and wants, and thought outside the box to find us our dream home. We would happily work with them again!

Hayley and Roberta are excellent real estate agents. From the very beginning, their enthusiasm, energy, and professionalism were apparent. They were exceptional communicators throughout the entire process and demonstrated a deep understanding of the unique features and nuances of our property. Their approach was thoughtful, strategic, and methodical, and we always felt that they had our best interests at heart. Selling a home can be a stressful experience, but Hayley and Roberta made the process feel seamless and well managed from start to finish. Put simply, they were outstanding, and we would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending them to anyone looking to sell their home.

Martelli Buyers Agents have negotiated on, and purchased, a number of homes through the Cleaves at Bayleys Remuera. Each time we have found them to be sharp negotiators, knowledgeable about the home they are selling, and great communicators. Our clients, based off shore, are thrilled to have secured this beautiful St Heliers home to move their family into, and we appreciate the work and support of the Cleaves to get this deal agreed.

Martelli Buyers Agents represented a buyer seeking a beautiful modern St Heliers home near St Thomas' School. The Cleaves marketed 25A Brilliant Street exceptionally well and had priced it very accurately. Peter and Myles worked with their vendor to negotiate in additions that would work well for our buyers, and resulted in a very positive outcome with a quick settlement.

We had a great experience working with The Cleaves team. Peter & Myles led the process with confidence and professionalism, and from start to finish the communication was clear, timely, and easy to follow. Lisa, and the wider team were a huge support throughout the campaign. Their coordination behind the scenes, attention to detail, and willingness to step in whenever needed made the whole process feel smooth and well-managed. They were great to deal with - practical, responsive, and always focused on getting the best outcome. The campaign was well executed and carried through seamlessly to auction, delivering a strong result. We’d happily recommend The Cleaves to anyone looking for a reliable and effective team.
