Gavin was easy to talk to, listened well and gave great advice and guidance around making an offer and the process of buying the house for myself as a first time buyer in Nz. He was always easy to contact and kept me up to date with how things were progressing. Gavin went the extra mile in making the whole process smooth and straightforward. I highly recommend Gavin as an agent and would be happy to work with him again if I ever find myself in need of a real estate agent again.

I honestly cannot recommend Claudine enough! As my buyer agent, not only is she absolutely amazing at what she does, she was with me for the entire journey of buying my first home. This was a long process, and there were definitely times when it felt like it was never going to happen. But she never gave up on the plan. She was constantly searching for houses, contacting agents, going above and beyond to help me find the right home. When we found this home, Claudine encouraged me to put in a backup offer, and then guided me through the entire process. Somehow, someway, we were going to make this happen — and we did it! We got the keys to my very first home! I will be forever grateful for everything she did for me. If you’re looking for someone who truly cares, works incredibly hard, goes above and beyond, and will fight for you every step of the way, I couldn’t recommend her more. Whether it’s purchasing or selling - Claudine at Harcourts Gold is truly awesome! Thank you Claudine for helping me achieve such a huge goal of mine!

We were so lucky to bump into Claudine by chance at an open home earlier this year. From the beginning, Claudine has been incredibly personable, professional and a stand out from anyone I've met in the field. Claudine helped us to become comfortable with what is usually one of the most stressful times in ones life, her calming compsure, yet highly driven personality was what made our experience with Harcourts Gold completely seamless. Claudines transparency, friendliness and ability to make everything seem so easy is admirable and shows how valuable her skills are. Wouldn't want to work with anyone else! Thanks Claudine 😊 P. S. Our cats, Ralph and Finnegan loved you, thanks for making this process stress free for them too!!

Joy did an amazing job-meticulous attention to detail in all facets of the sale, highly knowledgeable in all aspects of real estate and she consistently went above and beyond to ensure the sale went smoothly.With Joy’s expertise and dedication to her role I felt I was guided and supported every step of the way. She has excellent communication skills, and is highly efficient and prompt in responding to e mails and txts. Her warm, positive personality ensured all potential buyers felt welcome on open home days and felt their questions were quickly answered. Marketing photos were vetted by Joy to ensure the home was presented in the best possible way. Her communication with me was excellent. Thank you Joy- your total dedication to your role in guiding people through a major life transition is exceptional. I unreservedly recommend you to anyone thinking of selling their home.
