Stan Kalafatelis

We met Stan over a year ago on the recommendation of our financial adviser. From the outset he impressed by listening to what we wanted, giving us space to do what we needed to get our property ready for sale, and guiding us clearly through the whole process. He was always very clear in his communication with us, both written and verbal, reliable in his appointments, and with a great sense of humour when needed! We got an excellent price for our home and thank Stan for making it as easy and stress-free as possible.

Stan was friendly, offered great advice, wasn't pushy but was flexible

Stan was friendly and personable without being in your face. He was knowledgeable and made the whole process very easy.

Stan is a very thoughtful and supportive professional and has always been available for our questions and doubts through the whole process of selling our house.

Stan couldn’t be more helpful. He kept us well informed throughout the sale process and goes above and beyond in terms of what we expect from a hardworking real estate agent. We have found Stan to be extremely honest and professional and it’s been a real pleasure working with him.

Found Stan very approachable, thorough, sensitive, thoughtful, professional, efficient, great communication skills.

Stan was excellent to work with, had a good style, excellent communication, provided clear direction and did what he said he was going to do.

Stan's ability to communicate and resolve issues as they arose were at all times outstanding. I also greatly appreciated his wisdom, advice and warm friendly personality.

While Steve was the "up front" person, Stan did much of the back end work (along with Leanne Platt) and was always helpful and courteous... And it was under his Open Home that the buyer viewed the house. During contracting he needed to deal with signatures in 3 different geographic locations - all handled without apparent stress. Thanks Stan.

Stan professionally advised during the preparatory stages for placing the house on the market. He also communicated well and provided supportive material on the present sales climate. Communication was excellent throughout the process and a successful sale was achieved.

Totally reliant, transparent, honest and anything he did, he kept me fully informed. Very easy to talk to I always felt he had my best interests in mind.

Professional and engaging

Stan was excellent. Selling a property form overseas. He kept me informed at all steps. When some issues arose, he flagged them promptly and helped arrange electrician, plumber to resolve.

Stan, was extremely help (and patient) and made the process very easy. Stan's guidance throughout the process was much appreciated being first time buyers. Stan was very easy to deal while also being very professional.

Stan was very helpful, making the process easy and straightforward.

Stan is wonderful to deal with, thorough, honest and a very good communicator. We really trusted him he was great

Stan was recommended to me & I would probably not have considered selling my home at this time without Stan. From the very first meeting, Stan understood my situation. He had many suggestions, solutions & an army of reliable contacts to get my home ready for market asap. Stan is a lovely human, who is always calm, consistent & easy to deal with – going well beyond that extra mile. He is a great communicator, knowledgeable, efficient, detailed, helpful, reliable & always ready contactable throughout the entire process.

Stan was incredibly helpful throughout the entire process of purchasing our new property. From start to finish, he went above and beyond to make sure we found the right home that met all of our needs. He was always available to answer our questions and concerns, and he made the entire process as stress-free as possible. I would highly recommend Stan to anyone looking to buy or sell property. Stan was an absolute pleasure to work with, and he made our experience a truly positive one.

One of those rare agents who brings empathy and real care to the job, a wonderful and competent human.

Under difficult circumstances ... Stan went above and beyond normal expectations ... showed a great deal of empathy and patience. I found his professionalism to be exemplary.

Very easy to work with and able to keep the momentum going.

Stan is one of the most professional realtors that I have experienced in China, Japan, Belgium and NZ. He is more like a neighbour than an Agent, A lot of stories behind that property, Plus he is very keen to help the purchasers to sort out issues both in the selling process and after. if I am going to sell my house, I would definitely call him first.

Stan's the man.

Stan's the man!

I found Stan to be a pleasure to deal with. He was quick to answer any questions we had about the property and I felt that he was very honest with us throughout the process.

It was great working with Stan. He was really good at communicating any issues and upfront when things cropped up.

We recently bought a property through Stan Kalafatelis. He completely exceeded our expectations and previous experiences with all other agents. He went beyond the 'call of duty' by helping us do some running around while we researched the property. He was also proactive in terms of contacting us about upcoming listings - despite not being the listing agent for some of them and proved that it is possible to buy through a non-listing agent. He's extremely professional and clearly looked after the interests of both the purchaser and the vendor.

Great service from Stan and Steve from Ray White .. friendly and knowledgeable. Always there to answer our questions, nothing was a problem.

We were very impressed with Stans organisational skills as we were a little unsure the steps we needed to achieve to get the house ready for sale. He guided us through the process also liaising in areas such as home staging.

Stan is awesome.

My experience selling my house with Ray White was an easy and supportive one. Thank you Stan for your help and support and input.

It was uncomplicated, we felt listened to and he kept any noise away from us.

When buying or selling such an item as property I need all the facts and figures to be fully informed. As well all questions were answered to my satisfaction and offers to visit a property again.

Stans been really helpful for us! Would definitely recommend him

Stan was great to work with. He guided us through the sales process and whilst being very professional at all times was also personable and friendly.

Always friendly and helpful, nothing was too much trouble. The property turned out to have more complications than any of us realised, and Stan managed these efficiently and competently. He worked hard on my behalf, and also took good care of the purchasers interests.

Stan was a pleasure to work with throughout the process. From start to finish Stan went the extra mile, his professionalism, attention to detail and commitment shone through. Thank you.

Stan was the perfect real estate agent for our circumstances. My 87 year old father ... needed to sell his house in order to move into a retirement village unit. I am resident in Melbourne, and due to COVID border restrictions was unable to arrive in Wellington until close to the sale date. My fathers health has been unpredictable, and he is also hard of hearing, so it was important that we have a real estate agent who was sensitive to his circumstances, and able to adjust to changed plans when necessary. I needed to organise many of the activities for preparation of the sale remotely via Stan, and always felt comfortable that I could rely on him to plan these activities with the least disturbance to my father, whilst still keeping him informed of the plans. I really appreciated Stans patience and understanding, not to mention the excellent sale outcome for my fathers house.

Stan tried very hard to meet our private view time and request

Stan tried very hard to meet our private view time and request

Stan was amazing , he co ordinated so many tradies for us ( out of town vendors ) , he was constantly at the property to meet them. He worked hard for the sale and achieved us a price we never thought wed get . He deserved to get a good result and we would thoroughly recommend him to anyone . And the Ray White team in Khandallah. A+

Good guy

Stan was incredibly helpful throughout the entire process of purchasing our new property. From start to finish, he went above and beyond to make sure we found the right home that met all our needs. He was always available to answer questions and concerns, and he made the entire process stress-free as possible. I would highly recommend Stan to anyone looking to buy or sell property. Stan was an absolute pleasure to work with, and he made our experience a truly positive one.

Stan sold my elderly fathers property. He went to great lengths to help my father prepare the property for the market and was incredibly kind, considerate and supportive of my father during the whole process. At my fathers request, Stan also kept my brothers and I informed and up to date with each stage of the process.

Throughout the sale of the property Stan was utterly professional. His attention to detail, his communications with my brother and me, and his desire to enhance the attractiveness of the property gave us confidence because it conveyed the impression that he was giving our sale the same attention as he would give to the sale of his own home.

Excellent service

Stan was always well prepared and thorough in all of our dealings. A really personable guy that I felt would represent us well when selling our home.

We thought Stan was very good, always responded very quickly to any questions we had. For the question below about using Ray White again as purchasers we didnt choose to use Ray White , and if we chose to purchase another property we would be very happy to use Ray White. As we are not in a hurry to sell any property my answer to the question below is undecided.

With regards the online survey, we have given Stan Kalafatelis a score of 10. If there was a higher score, we would have given it. Stan was brilliant. We only met Stan prior to putting our house on the market. He was recommended to us by our Son, who, in a previous job, had Stan as his Manager. Our Son said that we would not do better than Stan. He was so correct. Right from the commencement, Stan guided us through the selling requirement process, in an honest, caring, & knowledgeable way. At all times, he went out of his way to assist. The sale result is entirely down to his hard work. We have already recommended Stan to others, & will continue to do so. Thank you Stan.

From day One Stan Kalafatelis showed passion for his work which was refreshing and truly settling before going through a sale process due to a separation. Having Stan as an honest, reliable and transparent person in our corner made the process go as smooth as possible. Having had regular interactions with Real Estate Agents in my life it is clear that finding one with strong Morals is difficult. Stan proved he is not just another Agent with hands in your pocket. I would recommend Stan to anyone Buying, Selling or curious about real estate as his knowledge and personability is outstanding. He is a wonderful sounding board and simply cuts to the chase. Overall Stans work was exemplary and I would look no further for any future Real Estate needs.

Stan is a gentleman and I trust him completely. He worked very hard on the property to get a great price, and showed a wide range of skills to deal with various matters. He was always available, always cheerful, and nothing was too big a problem. I felt well supported throughout the process.

Stan has an empathetic personality, so he quickly understands what his customers are looking for, and he did not push his ideas on to us.

Stan worked with us for up to approx. 3 years before an unconditional sale was reached. He explored options from time to time and was always willing to listen to our suggestions in a carefully considered way. We also noted that he worked well with interested parties during open home days and promptly reported back to us of any developments. eg. 2nd viewings of a party

Stan is honest, hardworking and nice. A decent man!

always kept up to date with the sale - great to work with - if I am ever in the market to sell again I would be proud to have Stan as the agent

Stan was pleasant to deal with. Listened to our needs and wants. Always happy to oblige with our requests. Responded quickly to questions etc.

Very nice man.

Stan went out of his way to help us in any way he could. He was courteous, efficient and always kept us informed of the status. Can’t recommend him highly enough.

Well organised and took the stress out of a stressful situation buying a home. Made it so easy for us.
