Agencies in Totara Vale, Auckland

Hi Gurvik, Thank you so much for all your hard work throughout the sale of my property. From start to finish, you made the whole process smooth, stress-free, and easy to understand. Your professionalism, communication, honesty, and dedication were outstanding. You always kept me informed, answered my questions promptly, and genuinely had my best interests at heart. I couldn’t have asked for a better real estate agent. It was a pleasure working with you and the entire Barfoot & Thompson Beach Haven team. I truly appreciate everything you did and would happily recommend you to anyone looking to buy or sell a property. Thank you again, and I wish you continued success!

I have dealt with Vic many times in a personal and professional capacity and he is the most knowledgeable and humble person I have ever come across. Everything is smooth sailing with him. Highly recommend!

We needed to sell fast. It was April/May 2026, the market was flat, and we'd already had an offer accepted on our next place — no time to wait for the "right buyer" to wander in. Cheryl's first move was pragmatism. The house had a CV of $3.56m, but rather than anchor to that number and hope, she talked us through the market realistically and helped us land on a floor of $3m — a number we could actually sell at, not one we wished we could. That distinction mattered more than anything else. From there she pushed for a proper campaign, not a quiet listing. We moved out so the house could be cleaned and staged, invested in a high-end photo package, and put real weight behind marketing on Trade Me and realestate.co.nz. She brought her own network of stagers, decorators, cleaners and photographers, so presenting the house at its best was her job, not ours. She arrived early to every open home — clearing leaves, heating on, lighting right — and followed up after every viewing with buyer feedback. Nothing was too hard. The response spoke for itself: over 35,000 website views, 88 viewings, four building inspections. Four weeks after listing, we went to auction with five registered bidders and a reserve of $3.2m — in a market where comparable properties were struggling for traction. The house sold under the hammer for $3.35m — over 10% above our $3m floor. Selling at auction at all, in that market, was an outcome in itself. Advice to other sellers: when Cheryl tells you something about pricing or strategy, listen. You wouldn't do your own dentistry because you think you know better — this isn't the place to overrule a professional either. Whether you're a first-home seller, under time pressure like we were, or moving a high-value property — Cheryl is who you want in your corner. Unqualified recommendation.

Thank you very much Catherine and her team support and help

Pier was great to work with and made the whole process easy, especially as it was our first time selling. He knew the local market well, understood our property, and helped us present it in the best way. His communication was excellent and he was always easy to get hold of. Pier was professional, organised, and clearly has a strong network. We would happily recommend him to anyone looking to sell their home.

Steve and Winnie were an absolute pleasure to work with. They are both so down to earth and made our selling experience a lot more enjoyable. Communication was amazing, the attention to detail was exceptional and I cannot recommend them enough. Thanks again team, we appreciate all your hard work!

**Excellent service from Mitchell** Mitchell did an excellent job helping us sell our developed property. He was professional, reliable, and easy to communicate with throughout the entire sales process. His strong knowledge of the local property market and understanding of buyer expectations were particularly valuable. He provided practical advice on pricing and marketing, and kept us well informed at every stage. Mitchell also demonstrated excellent negotiation skills and worked hard to achieve a great outcome for us. He handled the process professionally and always acted in our best interests. We really appreciated his positive attitude, responsiveness, and attention to detail. We would highly recommend Mitchell to other property developers and vendors looking for a professional and results-driven real estate agent.
