Testimonials

Unexpected health issues meant I decided to put a recently purchased property back on the market. I was worn out and really couldn’t face the flash marketing plans, longish time-lines, etc offered by corporate agencies. By a stroke of good luck, Vanessa was recommended to me. She understood my situation and was happy to keep things simple, and got things rolling quickly. What a relief! Vanessa is a very good communicator and is forthcoming with honest, practical advice. I was amazed how well she kept me informed about various, interested parties and very happy the property sold so quickly. I couldn’t recommend Vanesa more highly.

Vanessa has done an exceptional job with the sale of my home. From the time I decided to put the property on the market, Vanessa has assisted with advice and assurance from start to finish. Vanessa’s knowledge of the area and personal touch makes your sale that much easier. I would definitely recommend using Vanessa to sell or buy your home in Stillwater.

We would highly recommend Vanessa to anyone wanting to buy or sell. She is great at what she does, honest and professional with her services. We found her so helpful in making the process so simple and straightforward. We are so grateful to have her help us sell our home in Stillwater.

Vanessa is easy to deal with, great at communicating and a wealth of knowledge. If your looking to buy or selling, Vanessa is certainly the person for you.

Vanessa has absolute competence as the number one agent for Stillwater and Hibiscus Coast. Due to her intimate knowledge of the property market in the area, a local resident herself and her personable empathetic nature she was able to facilitate an off market sale of our home. She builds relationships with buyers to understand their needs, aesthetics and home requirements. With this, she is able to connect sellers and buyers as she facilitated with our own home sale. We were not expecting to put our house up for sale – Vanessa understood our situation and was respectful and professional. She was never pushy, and always provided an honest assessment of possibilities, including an accurate valuation of expected sale price. Throughout the process Vanessa was kind, empathetic with clear and up to date communication managing expectations perfectly. She remained calm and worked thoroughly through all issues that arose – which are inevitable with house buying and selling.
We would only have ever engaged Vanessa to achieve the sale of our house, a difficult task as it was not taken to market. We cannot thank Vanessa enough for her hard work and connection through this time. For anyone remotely thinking of selling, you will need Vanessa by your side.

We felt confident to give Vanessa the challenging job of selling our property in a short time frame and over the Christmas/New Year period, and with a predetermined settlement date.

Vanessa achieved all of the above going the extra mile literally, by working remotely through her family holiday in Nelson over Christmas to secure an offer. And this period is normally the quiet time in real estate, so what Vanessa has been able to achieve really is something.

Vanessa proved she has the skill and the knowledge to identify and work with the purchasers who were in a position to meet our requirements as vendors.

Vanessa made herself available whenever we or the purchaser needed her and was able to guide everyone through what can be both a stressful and an emotional journey.

We can’t thank Vanessa enough and would obviously recommend anyone considering selling their home to talk to Vanessa and then let her do what she does best and sell your home.

I would like to thank Vanessa for her professionalism in handling the purchase of my property. She made herself available in the evening and on weekends to get answers to various questions. I would recommend her to anyone who is purchasing or selling a home.

Vanessa came highly recommended and certainly lived up to this. Selling and marketing in a very flat market was not easy but Vanessa showed an ability to adapt and pivot to meet that market. Throughout the process she averaged 2 Open Homes as well as several private viewings per week and was always positive that there was a buyer out there. Auckland was dealt some gnarly weather events during this time and, as we live in another region, Vanessa always ensured that the property was tidy and ready for each viewing – right down to getting the leaf blower out on occasions!!!! Her bright, friendly, positive manner made the process so much easier and we would have no hesitation in recommending her to anyone who is considering selling or buying property.

Straight off the bat, as first-home buyers, we had no experience at all with buying a house, and Vanessa was a godsend to us when we approached her to do a last minute viewing of our future home to be. She dropped everything for a late night viewing and the rest is history. Vanessa had great communication throughout the stressful and lengthy process, and commitment, and nevertheless, we got there in the end and the wait was worth it. We highly recommend Vanessa if you want to buy in the future. Thank you for everything you have done for us!
