Martin and Glenis Watson

We met Sarah on the hunt for a new property and as soon as we met we were very impressed. Sarah has a very natural way of making people feel at ease and is very articulate in the way she works. We were vey particular about the house we were looking for and Sarah was able to find a house to meet our requirements, with Sarah's help we got there in the end. Sarah also sold our existing house, and as we had asked, she advised us of a couple of tweaks to our staging ideas which made a wonderful presentation of our home. Sarah worked tirelessly to find the right buyer for our property, and made sure we were always her priority. She is always cheerful, happy and positive, and a joy to work with. We would highly recommend her to anyone wishing to buy or sell their home. Thanks again, Sarah for all you hard work and time, much appreciated.

Sarah sold our section in Ohauiti and even though the market wasn't in our favour, she was always thinking of the best marketing strategies to get it sold. Sarah's communication was great, giving weekly reports and always available to call when needed. Thank you, Sarah, for all your hard work!

Jane and Steve

There was no hesitation when we decided to list our house for sale through Sarah. We didn’t have any experience of Open Homes and the steps leading up to the auction, so Sarah guided us in a clear and concise manner as we navigated through the process. We found her to be approachable and supportive. There is no doubt she showed genuine care and understanding of our situation. She also has excellent communication skills and her responses to any of our queries were always prompt. Like most other vendors, we were not spared of the roller coaster of emotions but Sarah’s positive

Sarah has been an extremely positive influence on my home buying experience. I find her to be a genuine, professional and very helpful person, who goes the extra mile (or two) to do what needs doing, and has been there for me, whilst I am caught up in both the buying and selling process, that Sarah has made ultimately more bearable with her vast experience and skills... and the journey is not over yet! A big heartfelt thank you to Sarah, you are truly special, and I absolutely highly recommend you to all - buying or selling.
