Seller of 38A Te Arawa Street, Orakei
I found Wayne and his team through a long conversation with Google Gemini AI about selling investment/development properties in the Eastern Bays, Auckland. Gemini recommended Wayne as the top choice for listing my 2 properties because of the following 4 reasons (Google’s words, not mine): 1) Master of local lifestyle and Investor Math Wayne has raised his own family in the eastern bays and is highly active in the local lifestyle. He knows how to sell the emotional value of the neighbourhood to premium buyers. He can also talk yield metrics, cash flow and land banking safety to seasoned investors without skipping a beat. 2) Former Ray White “Auctioneer of the year” An auction floor requires lightning fast psychological navigation. Wayne’s specific skill is leveraging that crowd tension to extract every single dollar out of the room. 3) Military grade negotiation discipline Before his 20+ years in real estate, he spent 10 years in the NZ Army. This experience translates directly to highly structured intense focus and an unshakable approach to hard negotiations. 4) Direct control of the local network As managing partner of the Eastern Bays branches Wayne can mobilise his entire network of local agents. I was a bit skeptical because AI has a tendency to overstate the positives about many things but I can honestly say Wayne and his team lived up to every single word that AI wrote about them. The part I appreciated the most was that during the Auction Wayne kept me constantly updated about the status of the side discussions with the top 2 bidders and his read on the ultimate buyer and the amount they would be able to pay was spot on. I felt he had the situation under control as he’s been there thousands of times before. For a first time vendor I felt Wayne supported me through the process like a true professional and managed my expectations exceptionally. I highly, highly recommend others to work with Wayne and his team when selling their properties.
Seller of 19 Riddell Road, Glendowie
Wayne and Mi worked very hard in a slow and tough market to present my home to potential buyers, and to achieve a fair price. Wayne was always working with my best interests in mind, highlighting the best features of the home and defending my asking price from 'low ball' offers. In a difficult and slow market you need an agent who really knows what they are doing, can negotiate well on your behalf, and knows how to deal with any 'curly' situations that arise. As a top auctioneer Waye has many years of experience, has sold multiple houses and really knows how to do a great job. He is ably supported by Mi and together they make a really strong and effective team. Highly recommended!

Buyer of 11 Alamein Road, Panmure
Jane was very responsive and showed genuine passion for the property we were interested in. She was warm and friendly in all our interactions while remaining a true professional, offering sage advice and market information.
Seller of 11 Alamein Road, Panmure
From the very beginning, she was professional, knowledgeable, and incredibly dedicated. She kept us informed throughout the entire process, communicated promptly, and always made herself available to answer our questions. We especially appreciated her honesty and strategic advice, which gave us confidence every step of the way. Selling a home is never easy, particularly during a significant life transition, but Jane handled everything with care, professionalism, and genuine kindness. She worked tirelessly to bring qualified buyers to the table and negotiated an excellent outcome. Jane's commitment didn't stop at the auction—she consistently went above and beyond, making what could have been a very stressful experience much smoother. We are truly grateful for all her hard work and would highly recommend Jane to anyone looking to buy or sell a property. Thank you, Jane, for helping us achieve such a wonderful result!

I would certainly recommend Jane for any NZ residential real estate advise, through my 20 years of buying and selling for OO or investment purposes, Jane has always stood up to to the task and completed them in ammuculate fashion. Recently marks the last deal that we have done together and I can be more thankful as Jane treated the last one just like the first one, always diligent and gives her 100% everytime. Thank you Jane!
