Absolutely fantastic service from start to finish! Communication was excellent throughout the entire process, and I was always kept informed and updated. Professional, approachable, and always willing to go the extra mile to make everything as smooth and stress-free as possible. I really appreciated the honesty, responsiveness, and genuine care shown throughout. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a reliable and dedicated real estate agent!
Buyer of 28 Manuka Street, Stokes Valley
Rachel made buying our new home an easy and relatively stressless experience! We enjoyed her relaxed yet super-helpful style. Rachel is both knowledgeable and honest and we felt she truly shared our excitement when everything came together for us.
Seller of 28 Manuka Street, Stokes Valley
Rachel was very professional, calm and reassuring. She appeared to have excellent knowledge of the area and sales strategies. I am sure the advertising she developed helped to promote our house to the buyers, and helped get quick redults. She was easy for us to contact and contacted us promptly at key moments in the process. Everything was very well organised and we enjoyed working with her.

Buyer of 14 Rawhiti Street, Stokes Valley
After searching for a home for a long time, we were very impressed with the property we recently viewed. Maria, thank you for arranging a private viewing at such short notice, and John, thank you for showing the house to my wife the following evening. We both loved the home and truly appreciate your help. We are excited to share that our offer was accepted, and we are now first-time homeowners.
Seller of 14 Rawhiti Street, Stokes Valley
Maria and John have just sold my elderly mum's home. It was a difficult thing for mum to part with her home of 30 years, but they handled everything and made the whole proccess stress free. They kept us up to date regularly with the sale progress, and always with a friendly smile. The end result was a sale we were all very happy with. We would highly recommend the Maria and John O' Flaherty team
Buyer of 54 Bird Grove, Stokes Valley
Maria's professionalism is the first thing that stood out to me. Her knowledge of the market, particularly the area I purchased in, and going above and beyond made buying my first home less daunting. She helped me understand the process, how the vendor was willing to work with me to go unconditional, and made herself available if I had any questions. Maria is a recognisable face in Stokes Valley, and that familiarity, along with the existing connections with her and husband John, made the decision to work with her easy. I would recommend Maria to anyone looking to buy a home.

Seller of 37 Thomas Street, Stokes Valley
We are very happy that we chose Des as our Agent, he managed to secure an offer quickly and efficiently in a very hard market, wonderful communication from his team who were all happy to answer any questions we had throughout the process of selling our home. His market knowledge and pricing was definitely on key and we would definitely be using Des and his team if we were to sell again, we can't recommend Des highly enough.
Seller of 54 Raukawa Street, Stokes Valley
We recently sold my home with Des, and I honestly could not have asked for a better experience. From the very first phone call, I told him, “I’ve picked you to sell my house because I trust you.” Trust is a huge thing for me and it goes a long way, and Des lived up to that from start to finish. Des and his team made the whole process smooth and stress free. Communication was always easy, and he was upfront and realistic about what was worth updating and what was not. His advice was based on real experience from selling similar homes, and it was clear he knows the market extremely well. Nothing felt sugar coated or pushed. It was simply honest guidance that helped me make the right decisions. Des also does so much for the community, especially through sports, and it felt great to be able to give back by choosing him to sell my home. In my line of work in banking, I see a huge range of real estate agents come across my desk, and Des consistently stands out with one of the highest numbers of successful sales. That level of professionalism absolutely came through in my own experience. I would recommend Des to anyone wanting someone they can genuinely trust. He brings knowledge, honesty, community spirit and a level of service that makes selling your home a whole lot easier.

Seller of 4 Mokopuna Grove, Stokes Valley
A good experience overall. Paul is great to deal with and has a lot of experience and market knowledge. He is understanding and accommodating, which we really appreciated. There were a few basics that could have been done better with our marketing ad. Some important information from a buyers perspective were left out (parking spaces, sheds, access to public transport). It felt like we were the last to know about our open home times for the next week, but this was improved once I requested a notification in the WhatsApp chat. The WhatsApp chat was a great idea for communicating between us and Paul’s team. Everyone was helpful, professional, friendly and responsive. Thanks for getting us through to a successful sale!
Seller of 16 Rintoul Grove, Stokes Valley
Paul did an outstanding job selling my home. He was professional, communicative and made the whole process smooth and stress-free. His advice was spot on, and he achieved a fantastic result. I really appreciated his effort and attention to detail throughout. Highly recommend Paul to anyone looking to sell.
Seller of 48 Stokes Valley Road, Stokes Valley
Paul was always available to listen, help and offer advice. I really appreciated his knowledge and experience in how to get the best result. He is professional, but with a level of personal service that is unmatched by a lot of agents. His easygoing persona makes airing concerns, thoughts ideas and stresses a very comfortable experience. Cudos to the team behind the man also, seamless experience! Five Stars :-)
