“In these uncertain times, you need a salesperson who will go the extra mile to get your property sold. Verena combines strong sales and relationship-building skills with an unparalleled work ethic. And most importantly – she gets results.”

Attitude, knowledge, professionalism, and relatability to me as a client, to understand and work with and develop the pathway to the sale of our house.

I recently sold my house here in Mt Wellington and used the same two Barfoot & Thompson salespeople who I sold my previous house with and through whom I purchased the Mt Wellington house just sold. They also put in a lot of effort to help us find a house further south, resulting in us purchasing a place in Conifer Grove, but unfortunately it was not on the Barfoot & Thompson books.

The salespeople, Verena Ryan and Lisa MacQueen were professionally outstanding. Their work with us to prepare our house for sale and to also look for our potential next property was such a great experience, again.

We sold by auction, and Murray Smith did an outstanding job, in getting to our reserve in this declining market, even though we had six registered bidders!

So, I just want to pass on my compliments to you and the team, for the Barfoot & Thompson real estate legacy you have 'left' behind.

"Dream Team! The best way to describe Verena and Lisa! As a team they worked together to provide a bold, polished, and exceptional real estate experience. Lisa was always clear and concise over any paperwork, from initial engagement through to auction day and closure documents, even when we were chasing a CCC for building work. She was always happy to work around my varied and long working hours. Verena has boundless energy and is a visionary when it comes to how to maximise value and market the home. She even had us doing some extra DIY before sale and staging, that really paid off. She has endless contacts which saved me running around and finding people, and it took all the stress away. I would sell any property with these ladies again. Marketing and open homes were all hand led amazingly well and no stress for me. Verena has since been acting as a salesperson helping me find a new property. Full end-to-end service."

How do you choose a real estate salesperson to sell your wonderful old family home? You choose a professional and respected real estate company. Then, you choose two clever women with complementary skills.

"The Property Girls" are a small team, supported by all the resources and skilled management of Barfoot & Thompson. Thank you Verena and Lisa for all your good advice and those important personal touches. You gave us a plan and absolutely delivered.

Verena and Lisa are a superb team and I highly recommend them. They are professional and enjoyable to work with. Together, they did a fantastic job of marketing our house and we got an excellent result on auction day. Verena brings to her work an unrivalled energy and is an exceptionally hard worker. Through her excellent communication skills, she engages with the buyers, builds trust and gets the competition going on auction day. She has excellent judgement of the buyers and the market. She gave us plenty of support and advice for preparing our house for sale. We found that her knowledge of the current market gave us a real advantage in preparing our house for sale.

Years of upgrading and renovating our home had us closer to selling "sometime in the future" until we were gently persuaded by Verena and Lisa to move forward the clock. Their hands-on assistance and spot-on advice gave us confidence to proceed and we are delighted we did. A sale under the hammer at auction and a great result all round. Always available, professional, and enthusiastic, Verena and Lisa are a formidable team who understand the market, deliver a dynamic and innovative marketing campaign, and are highly skilled at working with buyers to build an outstanding auction result. Our wholehearted recommendation.

"Given the circumstances, (Covid 19 lockdown), time on the market, and our turning away several offers over time ... the salespeople would have had every reason to become disillusioned with the opportunity. If that was the case, they (Verena and Lisa), never let us see it, and we were impressed with their relentless enthusiasm."

We would like to thank you both for the ideal outcome we have achieved.  You are friendly, competent, professional and acted with integrity throughout.  You stand out from the crowd! The immediate impact of the advertising in the first weekend was a real bonus and to get an offer within nine days was honestly the perfect outcome for us!

Verena Ryan and Lisa MacQueen recently sold our home of 48 years, and we are delighted to write a testimonial for them. At all times their extremely professional and efficient manner with regard to the marketing and final sale of the property was exceptional. With their advice and guidance the presentation of the property was top quality and greatly assisted in producing an excellent sale result. On a personal note, it has been a very emotional time to leave our family home of so many years, and both Verena and Lisa have shown empathy and understanding to us both which we have very much appreciated.

'Verena worked with me superbly to market and sell my townhouse in Grafton. She was always professional with a high work ethic to present the property and engage potential purchasers. The marketing campaign ran efficiently and any obstacles were successfully negotiated. We had a number of buyers present in the auction room which created competition and a sale price above my expectations.'

'I wanted to thank you for your efforts in the sale of the property at Monteith Crescent. I was impressed throughout the process by your integrity, straightforward approach and general professionalism. I will certainly be recommending your services to anyone I know thinking of selling.

We would like to thank both Verena and Lisa for the sale of our property. They knew exactly how to present our home and did it well above our expectations, it looked amazing. They were always available instantly whenever we needed them to answer any questions and concerns that we had. They also shared useful contacts and local knowledge with us. Thank you both.

Kind Regards

"I thoroughly recommend Lisa and Verena for the sale of property in Remuera. They managed the sale of our family property in a professional, yet friendly and positive manner. They supported my recently widowed Mother with sensitivity and dignity - respecting her needs whilst managing the sale process and achieving an amazing result for her.".

"Thank you Verena for finding me a house within two weeks, when I had been looking for six months!!! We are very happy in our new home and appreciate your efforts to secure it for us. We very touched with the follow up, gifts and card, and would recommend you to others."

We wish to say a huge thank you to Verena Lobb for the fantastic services she provided when selling our house. After making the decision to sell our home of 33 years we looked at several real estate agents before coming to the decision to use Verena who we thought was best equipped to get the desired result.

Verena was conscientious and very passionate about her job. She kept in constant contact with us as she knew we were actively watching the real estate market. We provided Verena with what our expectations were on the sale price of our home and she updated us after each open home and confidently answered any questions we had.

We were delighted when Verena sold our home before the scheduled auction and for a price substantially more than what we had expected. Not only did she work hard at selling our home, Verena also helped sort out issues that we had along the way. She really did go that extra mile and we can't thank her enough.

We found Verena to be reliable, hard working and honest and we have no hesitation in recommending her to any prospective clients in the future.
