I was needing to sell my house quickly and had heard lots of good feed back about Brendon, and as I was absent from Rolleston and already living in Southland I had to rely heavily on him to get everything done.
Appreciate the pragmatic and realistic conversations. Didn’t feel like I was getting a sales pitch more like working together with great ideas and solutions.
Excellent, especially as I'm in the UK until September and have been in the UK for most of the sales process
Brendan is a great guy, always friendly, excellent communication. One of the best! Would highly recommend him to anyone.
Big Red did an amazing job in helping us sell our Rolleston property. He promptly connected us with a couple who had missed out on similar properties and thats all it took. Big Red kept us informed throughout the entire process and within days the property was sold. We would not hesitate to recommend Big Red and his team to any of our friends and family
We love dealing with Big Red! Such an awesome person to deal with, very thorough and friendly :)
He makes you feel very welcome and since he has sold property to my family before, I felt in safe hands.
Using Big Red meant that as a client we benefited from everything that he had to offer. The expertise in the area, knowledge of potential buyers and contacts. It was all just so invaluable. I can’t imagine doing this again without his help!
Brendan was very approachable, knows the local market well, and worked hard to get our sale finalised. Great agent.
With Big Red you get what you see, no BS!
Really great contact and presentation. Updates on open homes, presentation to view, deadline offers, so simple all on one page. Definitely recommend and use again.
I have always had a good experience dealing with Big Red. He is a straight up kind of guy who speaks in a friendly professional manner. Goes beyond the usual limits to accommodate the clients needs. I would recommend Ray White Rolleston, especially the Big Red team.
Red & Amanda went beyond to get the job done. The sorting out of the EQC claim was amazing! Can not recommend them enough! The level of service from both = exceptional!
Very easy hassle free process!! Great communication from "Big Red", we were very happy with the sale price we got. Thanks very much!!
In our experience with the Ray White team, we have found them to be down to earth and what we call "good buggers". Genuine good people to deal with. Many thanks Grant & Kris.
I thought the Agent went the extra mile to make the sale work for both sides. We were certainly going to walk away from the sale at one stage but Brendan made the sale happen. Information and support during the sale from everyone was great.
I didnt have as much contact with Brendan. No matter what barriers presented, he never seemed fazed and there was always a solution. I liked his down to earth manner. His experience is obvious.
We trust Brendon and this is the 3rd house we have sold with Red

I have dealt with Brendan for several years now and found him excellent to deal with.
He made the experience easy.
Completely on top of the market, his management of his business, and his care for his staff and clients. Fantastic work ethic. One out of the box!!
You know he is always there, even though Felicity did The day to day he lives breathes and loves what he does and does it for his customers
Brendan is a straight shooter, tells you how it is, and willing to provide his point of view in the overall process. He is also a genuine good bugger!
Mandie and Big Red did a fantastic job. They responded very quickly to our request for an appraisal, their written appraisal was backed up by excellent information on the particular market segment we were in. They moved very quickly, professionally and proficiently to get our property on the market. It sold very quickly at a good price and their management of the sale and after-sale process was excellent. 12/10 !!
He’s a man who remembers his time in the NZDF and puts himself out there to provide a great service and looks after serving members .
Brendan was just great to deal with. His communication was excellent and he has a great sense of humour to make the process even more enjoyable
