Real estate teams in Royal Oak, Auckland

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.

Loved working with Roberta. Great communication and realistic discussions. Fantastic support thoughout the process.

Roberta and Hayley did a fantastic job selling our family home of 37 years. The showed care and respect in a time that was difficult for our family and made the whole process smooth Saling. Would easily recommend them and the team at Baileys to anyone in the market of selling or buying a house.

We had a great experience buying our home with Hayley & Roberta. The whole process was seamless, relaxed, and professional. Hayley was approachable, genuine, and went out of her way to support us throughout. We'd happily recommend her to others looking for a reliable real estate agent.

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.

I would like to thank The Cleaves team for their help and professionalism to guide me through the sale of my property to a successful auction result. At all times Lisa and Myles were kind and patient and have very good communication skills so I was able to understand the process. I am very grateful to the team thank you.

We are very happy to recommend Peter, Lisa and Myles Cleave to anyone looking to sell a property. The Cleaves team were so helpful, from suggesting contacts who could help us prepare and stage the property, to regular updates on how the marketing and Open Homes were going, they were there to make the process as smooth as possible. On Auction day we knew they had our backs and felt confident that they would get the best result possible for us, which they did. They are professional and genuinely interested in their vendors. A great team!

The communication and knowledge of the market was outstanding, we were out of the country so we had to take a leap of faith and trust Abbey and Richards judgement on different things that arose. Our trust was well placed, communication was quick and concise. Our journey started 6 months prior to going to market with a walk through to discuss what was worthwhile doing to tidy the property and what we should just leave. Forward planning by ourselves, Abbey and Richard allowed us to have a clear understanding of the plan moving into the sales process. We passed in at auction but Abbey wisely advised us to go to market, 6 days later Abbey tabled 3 offers!!!. Selling a home is always a rollercoaster but Abbey and Richard made the process easier. We have purchased a property and sold through Abbey and Richard and would 100% reach out to them again. Good luck

Abbey was the listing agent for the house we bought. She was prompt and easy to contact throughout the process.

As purchasers, Abbey and Richard showed us some wonderful properties. We were struck by their can do attitude, practical approach and professionalism. We couldn't recommend them enough.
