Dave McCartney and his colleague, Courtney Alexander, put together a superlative marketing campaign for my property and guided me to a display company that showed the vacant dwelling in the best possible way. They also liaised well with my nephew who managed refurbishments before the house went on the market. At all times Dave and Courtney kept in touch to keep me informed of the progress of the campaign. The property attracted a good pre-auction offer after only 2 days of property inspections. That bid set the reserve and there were 3 genuine buyers competing for the property which sold for $40K above the reserve. I can’t speak too highly of the skills and experience of Dave and Courtney and they were a delight to deal with.

We couldn't recommend Dave & Leah highly enough! From the very first open home, their communication was consistent, clear, and reassuring we always knew exactly what was happening and never had to chase them for updates. Despite receiving an offer after the first week, they remained fully committed to seeing the process through properly, continuing to present the property brilliantly at every open home, private viewing and even securing a backup offer along the way. That kind of dedication really showed their professionalism. What made the whole experience stand out, though, was how enjoyable they made what can otherwise be a stressful process. We had a genuine laugh with Dave and Leah throughout, and that lightness made all the difference. Thank you team!

Would you believe we’d picked Penelope as our real estate agent years before we even thought about selling our home?! We’d seen her around Pakuranga Heights for years and knew her track record, so when the time came, there was only ever one person we were going to call. Penelope is warm, bubbly and so easy to deal with. Our kids absolutely love her too! Her knowledge of the area and real estate is top tier. It felt like having a trusted adviser helping us through it all. She really cared about our goals, listened to our feedback and gave us honest advice. No big promises or pressure. We could talk things through, knew our options and always felt comfortable making our own well-informed decisions. She also knew when to get things moving. In a tough market, we had a successful campaign with great numbers through the open homes and sold unconditionally on auction night. We all had to work together to get there and we’re so glad we had her guiding us. We’ve now been able to take that next step we were hoping for and Penelope played such a big part in making it happen. Hand on heart, if you’re selling in Pakuranga Heights or nearby, you don’t even need to consider another agent. Thanks so much, Penelope!
Seller of 48 Ellesmere Cres, Pakuranga Heights
Penelope was amazing to deal with from start to finish. She worked incredibly hard for us and we were so happy with the outcome she achieved. Her communication was excellent — she kept us well informed and updated every step of the way. As first-time sellers selling our first home, we were understandably nervous, but Penelope made the whole process feel straightforward and not at all daunting. If you’re selling your home in Pakuranga, you’d be crazy not to use Penelope as your real estate agent. 10/10 — would absolutely recommend her!

We had such a wonderful experience working with our realtors Priyanka and Lawrence throughout the sale of our home. From the very beginning, they were professional, approachable, knowledgeable and always kept us informed throughout the process. Selling a home is stressful, but they made the entire experience feel much easier and more manageable. They were incredibly responsive, went above and beyond to support us, and handled everything with such care and professionalism. We’re so grateful for all their hard work, dedication and guidance in getting our home sold. We would happily recommend them to anyone looking to sell their property. Thank you so much for everything!
Seller of 33 Puhinui Road, Manukau
Lawrence is a forward thinking agent working on the best ways to market properties and extract the most they can. Along with Kamal, Lawrence was involved in providing ongoing updates and buyer feedback and adapting our strategy accordingly. Tough market times which were compounded by some unfortunate council restrictions were not in our favour but ultimately the property sold which was the outcome needed.

Kevin, Lawrence, Johnny and Lindi Thank you, Kevin and Lawrence, for marketing and selling our home. Throughout the entire process, you kept us informed every day about the progress and what we could expect next, which gave us great reassurance. Kevin, you have such a calm and reassuring manner, which made us feel completely at ease. I’m sure that same calm approach helped prospective buyers feel comfortable throughout the process as well. Johnny, you were brilliant on the day. Even though we didn’t reach our “magic figure”, you weren’t pushy. Instead, you helped us understand that we needed to be realistic about the market and the situation on the day. We really appreciated your honest and professional approach. Lindi, thank you for keeping us in the loop with all the paperwork and explaining what would happen next. Your support made what could have been an even more daunting process much easier for us. Selling our home after 26 years was a very emotional and daunting experience. Ultimately, though, we were able to make our own decision, and we are very happy that our home is going to be loved and enjoyed by its new owners just as much as we have loved it. Thank you all for your professionalism, patience, guidance and support throughout the journey. We now look forward to our next venture in life and the exciting chapter ahead! Sharlene and Graeme Coleman

We couldn’t have asked for better communication, commitment and professionalism throughout our selling campaign. While the final figure wasn’t quite what we had originally hoped for, we’re genuinely happy with the outcome, especially knowing our home is going to a first-home buyer. It was wonderful to meet them and to see the joy in their eyes of their success. You said it would be the home buyers and you were right, from the very start. Thank you team Aiden, for guiding us through the process with such positivity, honesty and care. We really appreciated having you in our corner. You made what could have been a stressful journey such a positive one.

We highly recommend Aidan and we are extremely grateful and appreciative of his support and efforts in selling our property. He always listened to our concerns, gave us advise and kept us informed. When it was time to put property on market Aidan and Anthony kept us informed and up to date at all times. Explaining the process and what to expect right up to auction day. They worked diligently on our behalf. We are also grateful to the Ray White Team as they supported us through to Auction. They were very informative and supportive, we felt we could put our trust in them. This made a very stressful time for us a positive experience with a great outcome. Thank you, Aidan, Anthony and Ray White Team.
