Selina

We first met John & Sandy Martis while viewing open homes when looking to buy. We spent a number of months out every Sunday viewing various houses and met a lot of Agents. We put offers on several houses but missed out due to multi offers situation. We had dealings with a large number of Agents during this time, and a couple of the houses we put offers on were being sold by John & Sandy. What stood out to me about John and Sandy was that they took time to really talk to you. They were never in a rush. They asked us about what our needs were, and seemed very genuine and honest in character. They explained things very well and made sure you were fully informed regarding the home and the sale process. So when we decided to sell our own home we decided to appoint John and Sandy to handle the sale. We had a few setbacks due to our personal situation and John and Sandy were very patient and supportive through the process. Finally once we got things moving and had the photos taken. Their photographer did an amazing job and the photos really showed the great points of our home. Once listed our home sold within a week, during level 4 lockdown, with no physical viewings and at an outstanding price. John and Sandy showed me that they always put their client’s needs first. Their integrity and ethics are outstanding and you know right the way through the process that you can trust them and that you are being looked after. Thanks again John and Sandy, I won’t hesitate to recommend you to anyone I know.

This is the second property that John & Sandy have sold for us. The reason we used them is they did such a good job on the first one, and it was the same with this one. We believe they are in the top one percent of agents here in Napier - Ray White is extremely lucky to have them.

John Martis is that rare find of an honest, hard-working agent who goes more than that extra mile for his clients. He has an empathy with people that is both calming and unusual in his dedication to the job in hand. His knowledge and experience is greatly needed these days in what has become a cut-throat business. I could not recommend him more highly, he is indeed the jewel in Ray White's crown.

Peter and Beth

John and Sandy recently assisted my wife and me in purchase of our home in Napier. Throughout the process I found they provided exemplary service with a high level of professionalism and integrity. John and Sandy clearly love their work and always went the extra mile for us – going well beyond what we expected by means of advocacy on our behalf, providing invaluable information and key contacts, honest appraisal and always exceptional communications. We had no hitches in the purchase process – all bases were covered due to their thoroughness, attention to detail and timely communication. We have been involved with a considerable number of real estate professionals during our earlier sale and subsequent purchase process. However John and Sandy are head and shoulders above anyone else we have worked with in terms of professionalism, helpfulness, integrity and genuine interest in us and our situation. John is an invaluable source of local knowledge and I have come to value his advice. We sing their praises to all of our friends and new local contacts. We wholeheartedly recommend John and Sandy to anyone seeking real estate assistance in the Napier/Hawkes Bay region.

Thanks so much for your help in gaining a sale for my Taradale house. From start to finish, your attention to detail, communication and advice were exceptional. Your support with understanding the inspection process was very much appreciated as was keeping me informed as the sale progressed through each stage. I couldn’t fault your customer service – your teamwork is excellent and your professionalism outstanding. I bought that house through you and I sold that same house through you – I am a very satisfied customer! Many thanks and my best wishes…. Katie Jeffery

Ann and Ray Webster

We would like to convey our sincere thanks to you both for your assistance and thoughtfulness during the process of selling our home of 40+ years. We appreciated your advice, patience and insight into our unique needs, and for being at the end of the phone at all times to answer our queries. The Open Home process was one which were unsure of, but you managed it well, and gave us prompt feedback about the number of viewers and potential buyers and alleviated our concerns. Thank you also for including our sons informed, and included by phone in the discussion following opening of the offers for the home. The service you provided was professional, responsive and honest at all times, and we are very happy that we chose you as agents to sell our home, and would be pleased to recommend both of you to any potential home sellers or buyers.
