John Covich

Although we dealt more with Rachel, John also had great communication, was very practical and positive, and had excellent knowledge of the industry so was able to answer questions from purchasers easily, as well as from us. He and Rachel complement each other very well.

We have used Ray White and John Covich before and would not think of using anyone else. He is a very professional person to deal with.

Johns a Credit to Ray White as is Rachel, they were both extremely helpful in how we positioned and renovated the house and also clear and concise on the sale process

John Covich and the team were excellent to deal with throughout the sale process. They assisted us greatly in preparing the property for sale. Their advice was invaluable. Although the auction process was held in Covid-19 level 3 we still managed to get an excellent result. Thank you

Rachel, along with John, recommended certain tidying of the property, a painter, a stager, an auctioneer and an outline of the plan clearly and convincingly, carried out the plan to the letter and staying in touch throughout. They did their homework, following up with all who viewed the property. The marketing was very successful and we achieved more than our desired price under the hammer. What's not to recommend?

John, Rachel and Tegan are, to put it bluntly, damn great. They are professional, have great attention to detail and very friendly. As Rachel says, they have a process and it works. I have had to deal with other agents from other agencies, and that is where we realize how professional The Team is. The others pale into insignificance. It makes you want to only work with The team.

Although I had less to do with John, he was very knowledgable and professional.

John is a top bloke who gets the job done with minimal fuss, giving us a great result.

John was very helpful and always kept us informed through the process.

John was very honest in dealing with us and the prospective purchasers, he also worked very hard to get the best price for us.

Facing selling after 48 years in our home was daunting. John, Rachel and Tegan made it easier with their professional but respectful approach. We felt John and Rachel listened to the way we wanted our house presented, applied their experience as well which we were happy to accept. The frequent communications were appreciated. We were very happy with the result.

John is a very straight up person to deal with. He is clear about the process and how to go about it. Always provided sound advice.

John was professional in every way, he was experienced and worked closely and well with us.

John was professional, helpful and reliable in all dealings.

John was very professional and delivered on everything he promised.

John and Rachel kept us informed throughout the whole sales process and their marketing of the property was first class which helped us achieve the price we wanted.

John is upfront, clear and decisive in his actions. He listens to the vendor and is quick to suggest practical courses of action in terms of the marketing strategy. I find him - above all else - totally honest - which - for me - is the most important attribute of an agent.

He and Rachel were very good to us throughout the listing and sale of our property.

I have had the pleasure of Johns services in the past and found him very easy and pleasant to deal with. Hence it was a no brainer to ask him to sell my house for me

"When we decided to sell our house we gave the job to John and Rachel because they came across as professional, competent and knowledgeable Marketers. In actual fact they exceeded our expectations as they also were excellent at communicating and stimulated interest of potential buyers. John also was creative in helping us over-come problems we encountered as we prepared our property for sale. Thank you Rachel and John."

“I decided to use Rachel Berry and John Covich to sell my house after seeing them in action when house hunting. Their approach was friendly, low key and professional but most importantly they appeared trustworthy. After using them to successfully sell my house, I can attest to the fact that they more than lived up to that first impression.”

“We wanted to take a moment to thank Rachel and John for the amazing job they did marketing and selling our home in Grey Lynn and helping us to purchase our new family home in Mt Albert. In particular, we would like to comment on their professional, diligent and friendly manner which made the experience of buying and selling much less stressful than it could have been. They were detailed and concise and always responded with urgency to enquiries and questions from us and potential buyers. In particular, their approach to marketing was current and took advantage of not only the traditional methods of marketing but their use of the internet and social media was outstanding. They are two of the best agents we have dealt with, and trust me, we have dealt with a lot! We would highly recommend them to anyone who would like to sell or buy a home.”

“I sold my property in Auckland with Rachel and John and there was not one moment where I felt things were not in control or fully considered, and the result of this was a better than expected result. They say selling or buying a house is one of the most stressful moments in anyone’s life, but with John and Rachel the experience was almost enjoyable (except for the nerves)!! From initial contact there was no extra pressure added and everything explained with huge patience at everystep right up to sale. I felt in control because they were. I sold at auction and whilst you never know what happens on the day, because John and Rachel had explained to me several eventualities that might occur, I was able to make decisions during the auction to maximise my success. I honestly can’t say enough good things about Rachel and John.”

“We want to thank John Covich and Rachel Berry for doing an outstanding job in selling our Mt Albert home at auction last night. We appreciated their professionalism, ideas and many skills which produced a result we were very happy with. From beginning to end, with a steady pair of hands they helped guide us through the choppy waters of selling a house in a seemingly changing market. We would recommend them to anyone who is considering selling their home in Mount Albert or one of the nearby suburbs. John is a legend and Rachel is full of energy and lots of ideas. They are truly an outstanding team.”

“I had the good fortune to have Rachel and John sell my house. Their guidance through the process was excellent. Nothing occurred without my agreeing it was a good idea, although I took a little persuading that going to auction was a good idea. Rachel had some excellent ideas about how to present the property and the contacts to make it happen. I had the sense they were working really hard behind the scenes on my behalf and shaping the process to my property and the subtly changing market. They were upfront with all the rules, regulations and costs, provided guidance and advice without ever being pushy or overbearing. Their professionalism always shone through. I went into the process with some trepidation, but it proved to be a relatively stress free and ultimately a successful experience. I don’t hesitate to recommend them and they would be my first choice if I was ever to sell an Auckland property again”.

“We couldn’t recommend Rachel and John more highly to sell your house! They are extremely hard working, trustworthy and savvy! They are a great team and their skills complement each other perfectly, with Rachel’s marketing experience ensuring we had fantastic coverage and exposure on a range of media and John’s extensive real estate experience and advice. Rachel has a great eye for presentation and can offer very helpful advice on staging. They pulled off our house sale in record time, securing us a sale within less than two weeks of listing our property! They worked so hard for us and we couldn’t imagine a more conscientious and reliable team to sell with! We really appreciate their enthusiasm for our property and genuine commitment to helping us achieve a great result. We wouldn’t think twice about who to list with”.

“Two of the best salespeople around, I found John and Rachel to be highly professional, trustworthy, and a very complimentary property team. Whether it is buying or selling a property, I highly recommend John and Rachel.”

“I thought selling my house in Westmere and finding somewhere else to live would be very stressfull. Well, so my friends said, anyway. But here I am 6 weeks later relaxed, and looking forward to moving into my lovely new place. Rachel Berry and John Covich were a great supportive pair. They guided me through the house preparation, the open days, and the auction, with tact and empathy. It was easy and it was even fun! Commu-nication and feedback after each open home was particularly good. I felt supported in the price that I needed to achieve and in fact that was what we did achieve. When it came to finding a new place, Rachel was watching out for me, she knew what I wanted and let me know when ever a suitable place came on the market. Even at the auction of that house she stood with me and we bid together. There was no tension or conflict. I didn’t expect the ongoing attention that was forth coming, all along John was the quiet voice of experience in the background. This week they delivered moving boxes and checked that everything was going to plan. I’m very grateful to them both.”

John has a practical, responsive style which, along with his experience gives a sense that you are in good hands. Rachel Berry and John also make a great combination.

Exceptional service and professionalism.

John is so knowledgeable and professional about everything real estate and life in general and recommend him highly to anyone - actually it’s the second house he’s sold for me and like another Dad.

John is a pro with high integrity. I have bought and sold with John and never doubted his word.

John is extremely professional - great communication and his after sales service/sorting out issues is outstanding! An absolute pleasure to deal with and I can't speak more highly of him.

John tries hard to keep you informed every step of the way/!

Professional, always available for questions and advice, turned up when meetings were agreed to, open and easy to talk to.

I felt John and I could work well together, we know eachother and so it proved.

John is a very personable agent, he knows the area and knows the business.
