Sharon was able to share her market knowledge and act with strong professionalism at a very high standard, giving us confidence and trust in her ability to execute the sale of our home with the best outcome for us.
Sharon has a wide knowledge of the Wanaka market and is very thorough in her approach to finding a suitable match for new buyers. She is always friendly and helpful and acts in a very professional manner providing a prompt efficient service.
Sharon understands the market and people, perfect combination of skills! Her no bullshit approach is refreshing. I have brought and sold properties through Sharon before. Sharon and her team will be the first I will think of when I am next in the market.
Kate has excellent market knowledge along with great people skills. Nothing was a bother, we felt we were in very good hands. We would highly recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell property.
Scott was happy to arrange extra viewings when we came to Wanaka outside open homes.
We choose this pair because we felt they were experienced in the Wanaka market, realistic & down to earth with a calm style. They gave us confidence when remote & secured a quick sale.
As Vendors, James impressed us from the start of our sale process. Before our first meeting, James did extensive homework on our property and presented to us having a surprisingly good knowledge of our property and of both the current property market and of selling properties. This all proved most helpful in the process. James was consultative over all decisions made in our sale process. Nothing was ever too much trouble. He was always available, responded quickly to all queries and gave us really good feedback throughout the process. We felt he was always working for us as the Vendors. We had met James previously with another property transaction and did like his manner and low key approach, never pushy or aggressive with prospective purchasers. He was very knowledgeable and responded to all requests. We have no hesitation in recommending James to any prospective vendor and are happy to discuss our experience with any potential client.

I have sold & purchased many properties through Scott now and I see no reason to ever go elsewhere. Every time Scott & the team have produced a fantastic and speedy result. The whole process is seamless with excellent communication & professionalism. I highly recommend!!!
Kate ‘s passion for her job shows. She was always keen to go over and beyond with prospective buyer viewings. Kate asked us lots of questions so she fully understood the house, land and features of our property. We loved the process and had confidence in her team for a great outcome which we had.
I had an absolutely wonderful experience dealing with Sharon on the sale of my house in Wanaka. She sold my house in under a month. She was professional and from the very start of the process, I knew I was in good hands. I would strongly recommend Sharon when selling a property in Wanaka.
