Sam's skills are communication, efficiency and he is very likeable and easy to deal with. I felt that he was devoted to the process from beginning to end - in what is a tricky market right now. There were issues that came up and Sam just got onto sorting the solution in a timely manner.
Seller of 1/186 Rongotai Road, Rongotai
Sam and Ben were great. Most of our dealing was with Sam who kept us informed all the way as the sale progressed. We appreciated the txt messages and phone calls keeping us updated after every open home or private viewing.We knew they were doing there best to get a sale for Mum's house. Every stage was explained to us so we could leave it to Sam to get a sale.

Buyer of 191 Navigation Drive, Whitby
We highly recommend Paula to anyone either looking to sell or buy as she is genuinely committed to achieving the best outcome for both seller and purchaser. We appreciated her professionalism, clear communication and negotiation skills. Paula would definitely be our first choice should we be selling in the future.
Seller of 31A Gray Street, Pukerua Bay
We had an excellent experience with Paula Ritchie from Harcourts throughout the process of selling our home. Paula was fantastic with communication, kept us well informed at every stage, and demonstrated excellent knowledge of the market. Paula recommended going to auction. She had genuine buyers at the auction, as well as potential conditional buyers waiting to see the result, creating strong interest in the property. We got an excellent result through auction. We would highly recommend Paula to anyone looking to sell their property. Her professionalism, market knowledge, communication and commitment made the whole process a very positive experience.

Seller of 6/1079 High Street, Taita
Was always available to answer questions and was not afraid to ask us questions, even though we may not have known the answer. She was clear with what may need to happen in the future. She put forward her suggestions but was happy to follow our decision if it did not match hers.
Seller of 20 Hume Street, Alicetown
Team Sinéad was excellent to work with throughout the sales process. Given tricky market conditions, Team Sinéad worked with us closely on our tactics, expectations and marketing. The whole team was super communicative, accommodating and good fun to work with. Their local market knowledge, attention to detail and shrewd advice made a huge difference to our customer experience and resulted in a great outcome. They also have a great sense of humour (check out the Instagram posts), which definitely makes for a smoother and more enjoyable working relationship. We would highly recommend Team Sinéad (Sinéad, Jen, Nick and Elsa) - they’ll get it sold!
Seller of 6/1079 High Street, Taita
Obviously not a good time to sell but, apart from lowering the price once, Sinead was always confident that we would sell the house as long as we had patience. Knew how to deal with potential buyers when 2 similar properties came on the market in the same area. If Sinead wasn't able to communicate with us over something, her "team-mates" kept us up to date with progress on the sale.

Seller of 204 Major Drive, Kelson
Selling the house on behalf of my elderly mother could have been a nightmare, but with the calm support and Chris and the team it was a breeze. Chris kept me aware of exactly where things were up to at every step of the way.His contacts and local knowledge made little things easy. Access to high quality cleaners (for both inside and outside) was such time saver for us. Chris was very accommodating and worked around my availability without fuss. Very good advice from start to finish - a short campaign, focus on the genuine buyers and guidance around final negotiations were all really valuable in securing the sale.
Seller of 153 Waipounamu Drive, Kelson
We cannot recommend Chris and Shane highly enough. Their knowledge of the local area is exceptional, and being local themselves gave us great confidence throughout the whole process. As we were living in the UK while selling our property, the 12 hour time difference could have made communication challenging. However, Chris and Shane were always incredibly responsive and kept us updated every step of the way. They regularly responded to our messages promptly, even outside of normal working hours, which we really appreciated. Their experience and insight into the local market were invaluable, especially during a time when the market was quite saturated. They worked hard to help us get the sale over the line and provided honest advice throughout the process. The entire sale and handover process was smooth and stress free. They went above and beyond by helping to organise local tradespeople to resolve minor issues and ensure everything was ready for settlement. Chris even helped tidy the lawn while we were overseas, which is far beyond what we would ever expect from an agent. Nothing was too much trouble. Chris was proactive, friendly, and genuinely invested in achieving the best outcome for us. This wasn't our first experience working with him either. He previously helped us purchase a property, and once again he delivered outstanding service. If you're looking for professional, knowledgeable, trustworthy agents who genuinely care about their clients, Chris and Shane are the team to choose. In our experience, they are simply top agents.
