Chander worked closely with my son in Auckland, as I was living in Kaitaia at the time. Chander was able to form a relationship of trust with my son. My son Raymond, a roofer by trade, found Chander easy to communicate with and was impressed how sincerely Chander wanted to help him find a home for his mother, me, Julienne Greig. Chander's approach made my son feel comfortable and listened too. Chander was able to navigate and help us through the whole process and I'm truly grateful for my forever home.

Chander was very easy to deal with and always went the extra mile to help us. We had a smooth and stress-free transaction from start to finish. He was professional, responsive, and genuinely helpful throughout the process. We highly recommend Chander 100%!
How was bought at auction. Luke had the answers to all our questions prior and was helpfull through out the sale
Great experience with Kat Flavell from start to finish. Very professional, friendly and easy to deal with. Communication was excellent, and Kat made the whole buying process smooth and stress-free. Highly recommended!
I just felt comfortable with Tracey She was transparent. Tracey answered all my questions. Followed up on my requests She was helpful polite and respectful
Harcourts Rotorua managed our property for the 11 years our family trust owned it. The property was listed with Luke who provided in depth knowledge of the local market. The property was taken to auction after 2 weeks listing and sold under the hammer by an enthusiastic and experienced auctioneer.
We had such a great experience dealing with Hielke when purchasing our first home. He was friendly, approachable, and so easy to communicate with throughout the whole process. He kept us informed, answered any questions we had, and made everything feel simple and straightforward. Buying a home is a huge milestone, and we are so grateful for how smooth and positive Hielke made the experience for us. We would happily recommend him to anyone looking to buy or sell a home. Thank you so much, Hielke! ❤️
We honestly couldn’t recommend Hamish enough! We’ve now both bought and sold with Hamish and he has been amazing to deal with. His communication and marketing were outstanding, he always kept us in the loop and made the whole process feel so easy. Hamish genuinely went above and beyond for us. He even lit our fire before open homes! 😂 It’s the little things like that which really show how much he cares. We’re so grateful for everything he did to get our house sold. Thank you Hamish!!
I had a great experience working with Hielke, both as a purchaser and, more recently, as a vendor. Hielke originally sold me the property in 2020, and I remember having a very positive experience as a purchaser. When it came time to sell the property, I was pleased to work with him again. The sale involved navigating a complex rental agreement, but Hielke handled everything very professionally and made the process feel straightforward. He communicated clearly throughout, kept me well informed, and guided me through every step of the sale. I really appreciated his professionalism, knowledge and calm approach, and I’m very happy with the outcome he achieved. He also went above and beyond with thoughtful, personalised gifts on both occasions. I would have no hesitation recommending Hielke to anyone looking for an experienced and trustworthy real estate agent.
It was a delight to work with Niki and Elain during this process. They kept us well informed and Niki gave great advice on how to manage different stages. Lovely to work with and I would highly recommend her.
