Seller of 8 Tetley Street, Seddon
In selling my house Maya faced a difficult market, and eventually, a very difficult buyer. Plus, her partner in real estate dropped out, presumably leaving her with a heavy load. She handled all this gracefully, and I eventually got my asking price. The one hiccup was in the Disclosure Statement, which she handled too casually, and which has come back to bite in the final stretch. As a seller, no matter who your agent is, take this seriously. Maya took this verbally, glossed over details, and affixed a digital signature without giving me a written version and a chance to review. This has led to haggling in the final stretch, and more work for the solicitors. However, the relatively low commission more than compensated.

Buyer of 3 Fell St, Seddon
Ben was outstanding throughout the entire process of purchasing our new home while still living in QLD. From the very beginning, he went above and beyond to keep the sale moving forward, even when things became extremely challenging. We hit some significant hurdles with the building report, particularly around the scrim wall linings and subsequent insurance issues. There were moments where it looked like the sale might fall through. Ben handled these situations with professionalism, calm, and excellent communication. He acted as a brilliant bridge between the vendor and us, keeping everyone informed and working constructively toward solutions. His proactive approach and regular updates made a real difference in getting us over the line. Ben’s communication was consistent and clear the whole way through, and we always felt supported. He genuinely went the extra mile to ensure the transaction progressed smoothly despite the complications. We’re very grateful for his efforts and would highly recommend Ben to anyone looking to buy or sell in the Marlborough region. He’s a credit to Tall Poppy Real Estate. Jason & Caroline Limmer
Seller of 154 Tetley Brook Road, Seddon
Ben was easy to deal with, he made the sale process very smooth he had great communication and despite our change of circumstances through the sale process we still managed to get an acceptable offer across the line he remained positive and super easy to deal with throughout the process. Talk poppy itself has fantastic fees and not a cent was spent until sold which in today’s expensive world is hugely beneficial. Highly recommend

Team Ben, from the get-go showed confidence in achieving the best result the market could offer. His negotiating even while on an overseas holiday showed his commitment to achieving that outcome. His professionalism, prompt actions and communication with all parties to me made the difference, avoiding frustrating delays and making for a seamless experience.

Buyer of 9 Goulter Street, Seddon
Lauren was very helpful, for a purchases side,we were worried whether we were investing our money in a better place and she understood us and guided us. She is amazing. She wasn't only a sales person and left us but she went above that by answering to all our questions and clearing our doubts. We are very happy that we had Lauren. We had been looking for a property for a long time and went to lots of open homes, but we have never felt welcomed by sales argents, we felt like we were judged by the cover, they didn't read the book because of our dress up styles,in farm clothes and simple. First Ever person Lauren, she gave us that beautiful warmth approach. Though we told her that we have just come in to be nosey and wanted only to see the property because we live locally. She happily with her most beautiful smile showed us around. Thank you very much Lauren for your wonderful service. We Chandra family appreciate everything you have done for us. From showing us around, getting the mortgage brooker Bronwyn in and ending up the sales. Now the next part was Tayler, getting things sorted with rental side of the property. Lauren, Bronwyn and Tayler, we are just speechless for all your support towards helping us with what we needed to be the new owner of 9 Goulter Street, Seddon. Thank you very very much. From Chandra Family.
