We found Pernilla, very friendly and willing to go the extra mile, even getting her son to paint our fence in a hurry so we could present a tidier house to market. At every step we have found Pernilla to act quickly, offer advice and feedback where we needed it.

“Pernilla was professional, knowledgeable, and made the process of buying our first home a breeze. She was always available to answer any questions. She was always on top of things and kept us informed every step of the way. Overall, Pernilla was a pleasure to work with and I'm glad we had such a positive experience.

Donna and David Percy

As long-term residents of Mt Eden, we recently made the decision to relocate permanently to our other home in Mangawhai. We wanted a real estate agent who really understood the uniqueness of the village and Mt. Eden community, and could convey that to potential buyers of our home. We hadn’t dealt with Mike previously but as a local resident with significant experience selling in Mt. Eden, he instantly understood where we were coming from. Mike and Pernilla’s communication throughout was superb and they delivered an outstanding result in a challenging market. We heartily recommend Mike and his team to you. Donna and David Percy

“I would like to thank Pernilla and Jonathan for their support in selling my parent’s house. Having lost my mum earlier in the year, it was a tough time. However their help and guidance went beyond just selling the house. They are a great team and were always considerate of the sale’s impact on myself and my dad and went the extra mile in providing support and information. Not only did they do an amazing job through their knowledge, talent and hard work in selling the house, which sold for a price well above expectations, but they did it in a highly ethical and compassionate way that included consideration of the human aspects of a house sale. At a number of key times, whether through providing information and contacts, or through their own hands on approach and hard work, they made the process ten times easier, quicker and more effective than it could have been. I want to thank them and pass on my sincere appreciation to them for their talent, ethics and hard work and support. They made my Dad’s day and took pressure off him at a key time and we are both very grateful for their support and they were key in getting such a great result”.

Pernilla and Lisa marketed and sold my rental property in Mt Roskill 2021 and they were absolutely fabulous. From the first meeting and viewing they were professional despite the property being in a poor state. They guided me through the process of preparing the property to gain the best sale results. Lisa was pragmatic and well informed on the marketing, she guided me on what would and would not be required to successfully attract the best sale price. Pernilla was charmingly enthusiastic and I felt confident in her ability to engage with potential buyers. Both Pernilla and Lisa worked very hard to achieve the best outcome for me. They have excellent communication skills, I received an update after every viewing providing feedback to improve and change marketing strategies. When a building report highlighted a previously unknown fault they recommended an ethical solution that allowed continued marketing and upheld both my and buyers confidence. After selling my property Pernilla then worked very hard to find and show me several replacement properties. She listened to my brief and was extremely accommodating in meeting and showing me suitable properties despite being restricted by Level 3 precautions. Pernilla is both professional and extremely diligent. I highly recommend both Lisa and Pernilla, they will work hard for you whether you are buying or selling. Dianne Squire Ponsonby

Pernilla and Lisa were exceptional to work with, on my journey of purchasing my first property. They went above-and-beyond in resolving any questions that I had and were always fast and onto it with communication. Most importantly they were lovely and made the experience enjoyable (which isn’t often the case)! Thank you both for being so great and I look forward to working with you again in the future.

I found Pernilla and Lisa to be friendly, approachable and reliable. They were both easy to communicate with and always quick to respond. I appreciated how they handled arranging access to the property at times, usually at short notice so I didn't have to take time off work. Thanks again for your help!

Pernilla was absolutely delightful to deal with! She was professional, honest, very sensitive to our specific property needs, thought outside the box and was extremely proactive in a very difficult market. We viewed many properties during our search and nothing was ever too much trouble. Highly recommended!

Shanta Trusewich

Pernilla was outstanding to work with. As a first home buyer in a tumultuous Auckland market, trying to find suitable homes and bidding at auctions seemed intimidating and difficult to navigate, but Pernilla helped me greatly with auction strategy and gave me the confidence to bid against other determined buyers. We are now settled into our dream starter home thanks to her! We even got a personal note from the auctioneer to compliment us on being impressive auction bidders. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Pernilla as a necessary asset to make your real estate journey run smoother.
