About Liz Byers

My promise to you is to provide a positive, compelling and worry-free property ownership experience built on trust, integrity, knowledge and highly personalised service. Underpinned by good old-fashioned hard work, all the way.

My career experience spans over 20 years in marketing, sales and negotiation (including over ten years in the banking sector). I’m known for being cool, calm and collected under pressure; plus, I’m an excellent communicator and genuinely enjoy connecting with people from all sorts of backgrounds. Strong and sharp negotiating skills, plus a BCom (Economics major) help to round out my commercial acumen and understanding of market trends and impacts.

With solid experience from my involvement in over 50 property transactions to date, you’ll be in good hands. I’m very proud to have achieved within the top 3 salespeople ranking (Barfoot & Thompson Onehunga) over 2020 – 2023, along with my co-agent Digna Clark.

Helping families to happily and smoothly progress with their next step on their property journey is what really drives me. Your happiness is my happiness!

I’m a proud resident of Mt Eden, along with my husband and two kids. We just love the gorgeous character houses, the countless vibrant eateries and boutique shops of Mt Eden Village and Dominion Rd (we’re self-confessed ‘noodle and dumpling’ fans), plus the magnificent Mt Eden Domain and proximity to Eden Park and the CBD. I’ve also long been a specialist in the Onehunga, One Tree Hill, Hillsborough and Mangere Bridge areas.

I would love to help you with your next property step. Call me anytime to chat about your needs or for a property appraisal.

What my clients say

The best agents you could ask for!
We first met Liz and Digna while viewing a property and their genuine care and attention to detail stood out immediately so we decided to buy and sell with them. What makes them special is how they're both incredibly kind and truly supportive - something that's pretty rare to find. They really listened to what we wanted and consistently went the extra mile for us. The whole process of selling our house was as smooth as it could be and they helped us land our dream home too. If you're looking for agents who will get the best results and genuinely care about their clients, we can't recommend Liz and Digna enough. Thanks for everything!

G Parry & K Alberti

Professional, friendly service that delivered above expectations. - Liz and Digna were our agents of choice for dealing with the sale of our parents’ property under probate. As an overseas seller with no knowledge of the local market, their knowledge and advice was invaluable and helped us secure a sale in a good time-frame. They communicated promptly and were not phased by the time difference between our countries. They were helpful and friendly 100% of the time. Truly a pleasure to deal with!

M Rousseau

We cannot recommend Liz and Digna enough. From our first meeting with them right up to buying our next house, they were approachable, helpful, professional and acted with integrity. We’ll be using them when we sell again in the future. We are so grateful to them for making this experience, which can so easily be stressful, a calm and straightforward process and keeping us informed throughout.

N & L Collis

Outstanding!
Liz and Digna are amazing and astute agents. They went above and beyond in helping us sell our house. They were great with their reporting, we always knew what was going on. Their recommendations were useful and we welcomed their insights and experience in the whole sale process. We felt like we were up to date with market feedback and buyer interest. We enjoyed working with Liz and Digna and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them as outstanding, friendly and trustworthy professionals.

C & E Colenbrander

Professional and responsive.
Liz is a fantastic agent, she made the whole selling process very simple whilst dealing with an overseas seller. Liz's knowledge and experience made it a very positive experience. Nothing was too much effort and it left us feeling confident that we had chosen the correct agents. We would have no hesitation in recommending Liz.

G Cox

Top salespeople and perseverance paid off!
Liz and Digna are a great team - their knowledge of the industry was excellent, and we had faith and confidence in both of them. Very good communication skills. Our property sale was not an easy journey (due to market conditions and specific property features) however they were always encouraging and positive.

Sue Devitt - Seller, 27 Aug 2024

Liz and Digna did an amazing job selling our home. Communication was excellent every step of the way. Always up-beat and helpful and gave us plenty of her time at our house, we were looking at charging her rent! Very happy with the outcome and a huge thank you for all that they did for us. Would totally recommend them as your 'go to' people for selling your home.

Shirley & Jack Van Der Kley

I really appreciated all your efforts in helping us sell our unit. Your marketing strategies and attention to detail made the process easy for us. We are so happy with the result and pleased that we chose you to list our property.

Margaret & Athol

Liz Byers and Digna Clark worked as real estate salespeople for us recently. They are an excellent team who showed us kindness, thoroughness, integrity and honesty throughout the process of selling our property. Both Liz and Digna were always very considerate of our needs as well as possible buyers they were dealing with. We felt we could trust them completely to deal with all of the personal, professional and legal matters involved.

We would not hesitate to recommend Liz and Digna to anyone we know of who is wanting to sell their property.

Neil & Rachel Collis

It’s a big and momentous decision to put the family home of circa 100 year continuous one family ownership up for sale. Liz & Digna appreciated this. They worked away all aspects of the tender process addressed so when the family was ready to commence the tender, it was all in place.

The family had a wish that the home, would go to another family, that new memories would be created. Our wish was achieved. Liz and Digna made the sale process perfect, the family was involved, informed and valued, yet we were not overwhelmed and constrained by the process.

Liz & Digna took control of the whole sale process and took us on a successful journey through to a completed sale.

If you are selling a property, we would highly recommend Liz & Digna and the Barfoot & Thompson team.

Stuart Charlton

Liz and Digna came to us highly recommended and after our first meeting we had no hesitation in engaging them to sell our property.

They both portrayed a very professional image over all our dealings. Also, they both showed a very empathetic and caring nature towards Heather
and myself. Thank you so much for all your help and understanding.

Gary & Heather Soares

We can't speak more highly of Liz and Digna’s support, skill and service throughout the sale of our home. Not only did we achieve the result we wanted, but they made the journey getting there so easy for us - they offered excellent recommendations on how to present our home well for sale, were really attentive with the MANY prospective buyers, and created a warm, friendly atmosphere at all the open homes. In the end, they managed to sell our home for us at auction; something that has been challenging for many in this market. We would highly recommend this super duo to any vendor in Auckland!"

Q & Dean Easterbrook-Wong

From our first meeting with Liz and Digna, it was clear they were professional, prepared and had a plan to help sell our house. Their suggestions on improvements we could make to increase the marketability of our property were greatly appreciated as well as things that were probably not worth doing. Their marketing of our property as well as their communication and advice throughout the process was excellent and most importantly, we ended up with a sale price at auction above our expectations.

Subsequent to selling our home, they spent many hours helping setup viewings and visits to find our new home, with one they helped us find being ultimately the house we purchased.

While we don't intend to move again any time soon, we wouldn't hesitate to work with Liz and Digna again should the need arise. Anyone that is after a trusted set of hands with a seamless selling and buying experience and with prompt communication shouldnt look anywhere else.

Rob & Caroline Herbert

We engaged Liz and Digna after they undertook the sale of a neighbouring property. We were very happy with how they helped us through the sales process. Selling your home is a a very stressful time, however we felt that Liz and Digna helped us through the process in a professional manner. Their communication was great, and in terms of sale expectations they struck the right balance between hope and reality.

We were also pleasantly surprised come auction time. We were very impressed with the Barfoot & Thompson auctioneer with the way she negotiated a fair price between us and the buyer. In the end we were very happy with the sale, and the buyer happy with the purchase. We can’t fault the result.

Dominic Hollands & Chrissy Singleton

A warm, professional and fantastic duo
Liz & Digna were a brilliant team to work with in the successful sale of our property. It was clear from the outset that they had fantastic knowledge of the local market, but what made them stand out was their empathetic, personal and warm approach, whilst still being very focused on achieving a great result.

Their communication throughout the campaign was faultless, and I felt in the loop with all that was going on at all times. I very much appreciated their clear and honest assessments throughout the campaign which ultimately led to a successful sale.

Bryony Carey

Digna and Liz are truly the best team!
When I decided to sell my home in Hillsborough, Digna Clark was the only salesperson I had in mind. I first met Digna when I purchased the home many years ago and was most impressed with her negotiation skills, professionalism and quick response. When the time came to sell, I knew she would achieve the best result for us, and once again she did not disappoint.

With Digna and her partner Liz, you can expect a driven sales team who are professional but friendly, have the best knowledge of market conditions, are committed to an outcome that benefits both vendor and buyer and provide honest/genuine advice.

I was so pleased with the results of this sale, I went on to engage Digna and Liz for the purchase of my next home. It was not in the same suburb, but they went the extra mile to arrange, visit and negotiate on my behalf, resulting in the purchase of our new home!

I know that I will only look to Digna and Liz if I'm ever in the property market again, either to buy or sell.

Debbie Chin

“Jennifer and I wish to thank Digna Clark and Liz Byers for their professionalism, extremely hard work, communication and friendliness during the marketing of our property. Unfortunately their efforts did not result in an eventual sale for them personally, but they are part of a great team at Barfoot & Thompson and another member of that team completed a very satisfactory outcome for us.

The financial climate at present makes for a hard market to be working in and when we were seeing our expectations lowering week by week, Digna and Liz were always positive and kept us motivated. The hours these two individuals worked would probably be astounding because as well as us they would have other clients to give equal time to.

After each Open Home weekend, Liz would send us an electronic report which was amazingly comprehensive showing complete detail from all marketing sources.

We thank Digna and Liz so very very much.”

Jennifer & Allan - Ohlsen Avenue, Hillsborough

Liz and Digna are so approachable, friendly, warm and honest with a wonderful communication style. They also knew what the buyers really wanted so that tells me they took the time to really listen to their clients.

I would never use other salespeople or another company. They truly are invested in their clients, not just the sale. I have only ever sold and bought with Barfoot & Thompson but have had dealings with other agencies which I did not enjoy at all.

Liz and Digna are truly the best!

Fiona Crawford - Hoskins Avenue, Hillsborough

Liz and Digna turned out to be the dream team for us. I could see the market turning and didn’t want to commit to selling, but they laid out all the options and listened to any queries or concerns we had. Liz took the lead throughout the selling process and was great to deal with and when the buyer came along, the negotiations were handled quickly and professionally. To top things off, Liz and Digna then found us a house that matched our criteria and wasn’t even on the market. Job done, talk about a win-win team.

Rachel Stone & Justin Deery

We recently sold our home with Liz and Digna and would highly recommend them to anyone wanting to list their property. From the start, Liz and Digna showed integrity and professionalism. They brought many interested buyers through our home but they were always very discreet and careful to fit around what suited us. We had regular email reports on viewers and their comments and we always felt that we were kept up to date.

Liz and Digna have a friendly manner and are very easy to work with. They made the whole process of selling our property a smooth and easy transition.

Andy & Lizette

Liz and Digna are very good salespeople, who understand the market and were able to sell the property under challenging conditions. Very good experience throughout what became a protracted sales process - largely due to timing. Liz and Digna had to re-strategise as the market conditions changed. The auction did not result in a sale so this resulted in a change of tactics that worked. It brought in new buyers and as a result of this the house sold at a price that was in line with the market. I was happy with the result.

Jason George

I loved working with Digna and Liz. They made the whole process of selling my home easy and trouble-free. They provided an amazing service, arranging for the home to be staged and making the whole process simple and easy to follow. Their attention to detail was over-and-above what I expected. As the campaign proceeded, they kept me informed of the progress and interest in the property regularly. The auction reached a great result that exceeded my expectations since the market had been softening over the previous three months - all thanks to the amazing team of Digna and Liz. Thank you Liz and Digna, for all you did to achieve such a great outcome.

Anne Shaw

Professional & Caring

Both Digna and Liz came up with a great marketing and sale strategy. Especially through the Lockdown restrictions. They kept us well informed as we transitioned through the various sales processes. We will definitely use their services again in the future.

Thiva Kulasingam

Working with Liz and Digna to sell our property was a great choice. They went above-and-beyond to get a great outcome, and made selling our house a really easy process.  Would definitely recommend this team and will work with them again in future.

Mark Lee

A fantastic team with amazing service!!!!!
Digna and Liz are an absolute pleasure to work with. We are so grateful for all the hard work Digna and Liz have done to help us sell our home. They both made the process simple and easy to understand for us and we much appreciated their patience and expertise, especially working under covid restrictions. We are endlessly grateful to have had them both working for us as our agents and thank them so much for their hard work and valuable insight. We would definitely recommend Digna and Liz to anyone who is wanting to buy or sell and sincerely thank them both for their excellent service.

Neil & Helen Small

Digna and Liz our salespeople, were wonderful. Without their help I don’t think we could have coped with the sale of our house, they are both friends forever because they cared about my husband and myself and they kept in touch every day. 

James & Patricia Mulligan  

Digna and Liz are Stars
Both ladies were awesome. Without their support we would have given up hope but they believed in us and our house. We will forever be so amazed at their care and professionalism towards Jimmy and I. Thank you both sooo much.

Pat & Jim Mulligan

Digna Clark and Liz Byers helped us sell our cottage, by auction, in Onehunga. The result was very successful. They were open and honest in their appraisals and opinions and gave us some excellent advice on presentation. Their eye for those little details that we might have missed was crucial in obtaining an excellent result.

We particularly remember their advice to paint a certain section of fence. It only took about an hour all up, but the difference was monumental in the overall appearance of the property. It took their experienced eye to pick up on this. Without this advice we would have completely missed this detail which once completed seemed so obvious.

At no stage did they ever force anything on us or make us feel pressured. They clearly presented the financials and the various options and left the decision making to us without pressuring us. They answered any questions and gave us excellent advice.

They gave full updates on all the open homes and the numbers of interested parties. As well they presented regular weekly reports and market information that was pertinent to the area and our particular property.

We will certainly use Liz and Digna should the opportunity arise and we strongly recommend them.

Over the years we have bought and sold a number of property's through salespeople and we would certainly put Liz and Digna at the top because of their open and honest communication.

Kevin & Valerie Menzies

Thinking of selling your property? Feeling anxious and overwhelmed by the process?

I was, after all it was our family home, we'd lived here for 30+ years. We met Liz Byers and Digna Clark in their office in Onehunga. They were very professional and walked us through the process, assuring us that everything could be done in our time.

Absolutely no pressure, it took me a couple of months to make contact again and we were now committed to selling. Liz and Digna walked us through the process, always being professional, courteous, and just so helpful.

We sold our property, with a great result, and this was due to the fact that we had a fabulous team working for us. Selling your property can be a rewarding experience, if you have the right sales team and we would highly recommend Liz and Digna, a great couple of ladies.

Vicki Leevey & James Smith

Digna and Liz I would like to thank you for helping us to sell our house. We were very appreciative of the hard work, sound advice and expertise you were able to offer, which resulted in what we felt was an extremely successful outcome. The guidance you gave us regarding the presentation and your recommendations concerning the marketing strategy, were right on the mark and we were delighted with the results you were able to produce in such a short time. We have no hesitation in recommending you to any potential vendors.

Thank you so much.

Stephen & Sri Claney

Having Digna and Liz sell our house was a choice we will never regret. They worked tirelessly, professionally and always took into account our concerns and what we wanted. Digna and Liz are a great team and partnership in action, both reliable, dependable and enthusiastic. They did an excellent job and we couldn’t have asked for more. They went the extra mile. We were extremely fortunate to have them selling our home. We achieved a wonderful result and would highly recommend Liz and Digna to anyone looking to buy or sell their property.
