We would highly recommend Shellene for any realestate matters.
Seller of 6 Anson Grove, Naenae
Shellene has a wonderful way of understanding your situation and providing the correct support and assistance that you need. She provided honest feedback in a kind way. Her knowledge of the market and hard work preparing us to go to the market, meant we had a fast sale, getting a realistic price. I would totally recommend Shellene
Seller of 6 Te Whiti Grove, Korokoro
Within a few minutes of speaking with Shellene I realised that she should be the one to sell my house and she didn’t disappoint. Shellene’s knowledge and experience shone through immediately and she was always on hand throughout the whole process to answer my many phone calls. Shellene never made me feel like I was calling at a bad time even though I am sure I was bombarding her with questions at any time of the day! In the end, my house sold in much better time than expected even in a tough market!

Seller of 520 Riverside Drive, Fairfield
Selling our home at 520 Riverside Drive, Fairfield, was yet another reminder of why Linda and Dave Gaskin are the only people we trust with our property journeys. Their calm confidence, grounded advice, and genuine care shaped an experience that felt supported from the very first conversation right through to settlement. They guided us with honesty and clarity, never overpromising, always keeping us informed, and consistently helping us understand each step of the process. Even in this fluctuating market, they remained steady, reassuring, and focused on achieving the right outcome - and they absolutely delivered. Their communication was impeccable, their professionalism unwavering, and their ability to keep us grounded through the ups and downs was invaluable. This sale reinforced everything we already knew from working with them on previous transactions: Linda and Dave bring integrity, warmth, and a genuine commitment to doing things properly. They take the time to understand your goals, provide realistic and thoughtful guidance, and balance calm reassurance with sharp market insight. We’re incredibly grateful for everything they’ve done for us across multiple property journeys. Linda and Dave are truly wonderful to work with, and we recommend them wholeheartedly to anyone wanting a team who genuinely puts people first.
Seller of 11 Connolly St, Boulcott
We recently sold our investment property at 11 Connolly Street, Lower Hutt with Linda & Dave Gaskin from Tommy’s Real Estate, and once again they exceeded every expectation. Even in a tough market, they achieved the best possible price through a combination of professionalism, honesty, and genuinely realistic guidance. We’ve worked with Linda and Dave through the purchase and sale of two properties now — with one more still to come — because they consistently make the process feel easy, transparent, and well‑managed. They communicate clearly, they know the Lower Hutt market inside out, and they bring a calm, grounded approach that takes the stress out of buying and selling. They’re the kind of agents you trust completely: always professional, always honest, always focused on getting the right outcome. We recommend them without hesitation.
Seller of 7/567 High Street, Boulcott
We found Linda to be a positive, professional with good communication skills. She was quietly encouraging and helped direct our steps to get our unit sold quickly and for a reasonable price. Would recommend her as an experienced agent with a good sense of the market and lovely to deal with.

Buyer of 2/264 Grounsell Crescent, Belmont
This is simply incredible. He sold my house two years ago and stayed in touch the entire time, continuing to help me until I found my next home. After all that time, we finally secured a house within my budget. He has been incredibly helpful, always available whenever I had questions or concerns, and consistently provided honest advice. It never felt like he was just trying to make a sale — his focus was always on helping me make the right decision. I truly appreciate his support, patience, and dedication throughout the whole journey and would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a real estate professional who genuinely cares.

Buyer of 26 Trelawney Rd, Wainuiomata
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ From the very first time I met Michael, we just clicked. Obviously, having another Michael in the room meant we were off to a great start 😂. We connected straight away over football, had plenty of laughs, and I could immediately tell he was genuine, knowledgeable and someone we could trust. When Tayla and I first viewed the property, I liked it enough that I brought my dad back because I thought, this could be the one. As dads do, he gave us his honest opinion, and even he connected really well with Michael. Andrea, who was working alongside Michael, also connected with my dad over women's cricket, which was awesome. From that point, we genuinely felt like we were dealing with people who had our best interests at heart. Throughout the whole process, Michael went above and beyond. We probably set the Guinness World Record for the number of times the sale and purchase agreement was written and rewritten 😂, but he was always patient and made sure everything was tailored to what we needed. He was fantastic throughout the negotiations, helping us get the deal right, and organising the builder for our building report. He kept us updated, communicated incredibly well and made what can be a stressful process feel easy. What really stood out was that Michael genuinely cared about us, not just selling a house. He regularly checked in, made sure Tayla was doing okay, and even made an effort with my family. He absolutely didn't have to do that, but it showed the kind of person he is. 10/10 from Tayla and me. We couldn't recommend Michael highly enough. If we're ever buying another property, he'll be the first person we call!
Buyer of 35 Antrim Crescent, Wainuiomata
We honestly can’t recommend Michael Hinds and his team highly enough. From start to finish he was incredibly thorough, patient, and supportive, always taking the time to explain everything clearly and guide us through the process. What stood out most was how much it felt like he was genuinely working for us and had our best interests at heart throughout the entire journey. We never felt pressured or left unsure about anything. I can say with complete honesty that we would not have bought our new home without him. His communication, knowledge, and dedication made all the difference, and we’re so grateful for all of his help.
Seller of 35 Antrim Crescent, Wainuiomata
We had such a good experience working with Michael selling our home. From the very start, his communication was clear, consistent, and actually helpful. We were never left guessing what was going on or what the next step was. He kept us updated the whole way through and was always quick to reply, which honestly made a stressful process feel way more manageable. His knowledge of the market was obvious straight away. He gave us realistic advice around pricing and strategy, and it never felt like we were being pushed into anything that didn’t make sense. Everything he suggested had reasoning behind it, and you could tell he was working with what was actually happening in the market, not just giving generic advice. When it came to negotiation, Michael really proved his value. He kept us in the loop during the important moments and handled everything calmly and professionally, while still pushing to get us the best possible outcome. We always felt like he had our best interests at the centre of everything he was doing. Overall, Michael was organised, approachable, and just genuinely easy to deal with. He made the whole process feel a lot less overwhelming, and you could tell he actually cared about getting a good result for us, not just ticking a box. We would absolutely recommend him to anyone looking to buy or sell. He is one of the good ones.
