Feliz Llanes

Buying our first home was quite daunting. My partner and I, however, are happy that this experience became a lot less stressful as we got to meet and deal with Colleen. She was not only easy to approach and talk to but she also retained her professionalism all throughout our experience. Thank you Colleen for your guidance, warmth, and genuineness.

Colleen went over and above. We tried to sell before for months and months and she came along and sold it in 2 weeks. She is proactive, follows everything up, gets back to us asap, kept us informed all the way, excellent communication, patient with us, she stayed positive when we weren't feeling so after our previous experience. She knows how to close the deal. Best realtor we've ever dealt with and we've dealt with many over the last few decades in different parts of NZ.
