I recently purchased a house through agent Fang Wang, and the entire process went very smoothly. The property was at 113 Suva St. Fang was very easy to communicate with and provided professional advice throughout. She and her team are very nice people and were extremely patient in showing me suitable properties. I highly recommend Fang Wang to anyone looking to buy a home
Ravi is always working with a smile, and his energy is contagious. His communication throughout our sale process was well done, and his team work at Harcourts is very professional.
"I felt confident after meeting with Hazel. We had good communication. Hazel always made herself available at all times. She guided me through the more difficult arears. Hazel's market knowledge, negotiation skills and professionalism were excellent.

Good communication and responded to my questions quickly
Zani was wonderful to deal with during the recent sale of our house by auction. She was enthusiastic, hardworking, and knowledgeable. Her communication was always friendly, up to date , detailed and professional. Zani was excellent at helping us find solutions for issues that arose. She had trusted contractors come promptly to assess, quote, and complete the necessary work, all the while keeping us informed and making the decisions. Her problem solving was incredibly helpful. She liased with our tenants directly establishing an excellent working relationship with them which made for smooth communication and cooperation with open home times etc. We were very impressed with Zani on auction day. She was very much in control, her usual calm, reassuring, confident self despite the very busy morning. Her and her team showed great expertise, experience and proven negotiating skills in the auction process and achieved a great outcome. We would highly recommend Zani. We think she's the best!
Absolute pro from start to finish. Great communication throughout making sure everyone’s on the same page and progress. Follows up with the clients constantly and the persistence has paid off. Could not have asked for a better team to work with. Trusted partners time after time. Highly recommended.
Thomas helped my husband and I sell our house in Riccarton and we were very impressed with the service we received from him and Anna throughout the process. Thomas was very easy to contact during the sale and helped us to easily navigate some tricky problems that popped up - for that we are very thankful we had his guidance! We found Thomas and Anna very easy to work with and would recommend their services.
All recommendations from Gill were taken onboard, the sale process was clear, completed faster than expected, receiving more than expected. Gill nailed the negotiations, and his professionalism shone through, in every phone call. Extremely happy I chose the right real estate.
We couldn't have asked for a better experience buying our home. Dhaval Lamgghare was there for us every step of the way — patient with our endless questions, quick to respond, and always upfront and honest, even when the answer wasn't what we wanted to hear. They took the time to really understand what we were looking for and never tried to push us into something that wasn't right for us. When we found "the one," their negotiation skills and attention to detail made all the difference in getting the deal done smoothly and at a price we were happy with. From our first showing to closing day, we felt supported and genuinely cared for. If you're looking for an agent who combines real expertise with real heart, look no further. We're beyond grateful and would recommend them to anyone buying a home.
