5***** Professional, calming, informative, honest, helpful caring

We recently made the hard and distressing decision to sell our much loved home of 15 years and move into a retirement village. We engaged real estate salespeople Neil Sharpe and Rick Hale of Barfoot & Thompson Pukekohe, to market and sell our property. Neil mainly deals with rural and lifestyle properties throughout Franklin but switched seemlessly into residential. Rick has had many years as a residential salesperson and is well respected in Pukekohe. They were extremely helpful and respectful, guiding us throughout the process, keeping us updated constantly. Open homes were very professionally handled and we were encouraged by the feedback we received. Our house was passed in at the auction, but they both worked very competently with potential buyers who had been unable to bid at the auction and secured multi-offers for us to consider. We have now sold our home and are very grateful for the superb work and calming professional help through what to us was a stressful time We have no hesitation in recommending Neil Sharpe and Rick Hale as top real estate salespeople for your next property sale

All round professional

Neil impressed with his very professional and considerate approach, a very attentive listener. He encouraged us to put forward our best offer as purchasers but was not pushy and let us have the time to make up our own minds. His advice was very clear and made us feel confident in stepping up. We are very happy with his services and would highly recommend him to both vendors and purchasers.

Couldn't ask for better! 5 Stars

Neil and Julie made us feel safe, supported and cared for throughout our journey. No question was too simple, no challenge too great. They kept us informed and on-track, explained everything in language we could easily understand, and never once left us wondering what was happening and what we needed to do next. And when the time came to close the deal, we knew we'd gotten the best we could ever hope for. Plus they're just good people. We feel like we've made a couple of good friends along the way.

Confidence in all abilities 5 Stars
We can't speak more highly of our experience with Neil. We had 100% trust in his integrity and ability throughout the entire process. Nothing was too much trouble, he has a great manner with people and we knew he had our best interests at heart. His knowledge of the sales and auction process was high and he was even a help with our next purchase. I would happily recommend Neil's services.

Five Stars - Excellent performance getting bidders to the auction...
Neil and Craig were honest, gave a realistic market valuation given the conditions in real-estate at the time. They kept us informed of how the marketing and open homes were received and how many likely bidders they would likely have at the auction. Fantastic result at auction. Achieved the reserve price and a little more. Very happy and wouldn't hesitate to recommend or use their services again.

Neil & Craig were professional, friendly, and delivered the ultimate result - the sale of our home
Thank you so much for your help with selling our home. You made the process simple and easy to understand for us, and we appreciated your patience and expertise. Your knowledge of the market was extremely valuable to us.

The marketing of our property was detailed and despite current market trends, worked to get potential buyers through the door, all resulting in the sale of our home.

We listed our rural property with Neil and Craig during particularly uncertain times of the Covid19 pandemic. Both salespeople were great but we dealt predominantly with Neil. The level of professionalism, honesty and unbiased advice we received was incredible, especially given the stressful and ever changing climate we were going through.

We always felt as though our best interests were at heart and never felt under pressure. We were incredibly grateful to eventually reach our desired outcome, which ended up a bit of a roller coaster ride due to the nature of the pandemic response and it's implications for our situation.

We would especially like to thank Neil for his unwavering patience and support. We would not hesitate to use them again and recommend them highly.

Craig and Neil were Awesome!
To us, it was a ‘no-brainer’ to employ the services of Craig and Neil to help sell our home. They are local, have been working and living with lifestyle and rural properties for quite a number of years, and their knowledge of this, our area, and the Franklin district in general, is confidence inspiring.

Their diligence, professionalism and enthusiasm are second-to-none and they went above-and-beyond our expectations throughout the entire sale process, providing us with sound advice at each and every stage of the campaign.

Their knowledge and calm mature manner, inspired us with total confidence that they would always be working to provide the best possible outcome for us. How right we were. We were absolutely thrilled with the results achieved in a particularly challenging market and would highly recommend Craig and Neil to anyone who is seeking genuine, hardworking, and successful salespeople. They really are that good!

‘Neil has been working for several months trying to find the right home for us and we could not be happier with the effort and time he has given us to achieve this. He has travelled many hundreds of kms on our behalf and taken time to be with us and help us in all aspects of our purchase. Even to the extent of helping get the letterbox repaired when damaged by the vendor's removal truck, getting our WIFI connected when we moved in and taking time to help us go through the operational aspects of the very modern new home.

Neil was always available for us whenever we rang to ask questions or wanted to meet with him. He was knowledgeable, thoughtful, caring for our needs, and a genuinely nice person and we would have no hesitation in highly recommending him to anyone wanting to buy or sell a home in Franklin or anywhere else.

He is the kind of real estate salesperson we all hope to work with - but rarely find.’

‘Neil was amazing to work with on the recent purchase of our home in Paerata. He truly went above-and-beyond, meeting us at all hours and in all locations to get the deal signed quickly and effortlessly. He was very professional and assisted us even after the sale, to obtain the necessary paperwork and documentation we required in relation to the history of the home.

Thank you so much Neil. We will definitely be recommending you to our family and friends. It is hard to find good salespeople who are prepared to go the extra mile – we certainly found that in you!’

Selling your home can be an emotional rollercoaster, especially with the stresses of Covid. Neil was very understanding and patient when dealing with the sale of our home. He made sure that we understood each step of the process, was more than willing to revise details with us, and gave us time when making decisions.

Neil's punctuality was impressive. He was always on time, arriving exactly when he said he would. He was quick to answer or return calls and, literally, went the extra mile to get our deal signed, sealed and delivered.

When I first thought about selling my rural property of 30 years and moving into a retirement village nearer my family in Auckland, I was quite worried about the process and stress of doing it all. That was until I met Craig and Neil. They came out to meet me and took the time to go through the whole process with me so I could more easily understand what was involved, and immediately made me feel that they were the team I could trust to do the job for me, and leave it in their very capable hands.

Once I had made my mind up to list my home, they were both very attentive to my wishes, even to the point of Neil driving from Waiuku over to the North Shore to get my brother to sight and co-sign the documents.

They were both wonderful to me and certainly made selling my home as easy as it could be. They were very knowledgeable, honest, and up-front, and I was kept informed every step of the way. If I ever had any queries or thought about something I wanted to ask, there was always one of them available to talk me through my concerns.

They were so helpful throughout the marketing campaign and afterwards, (Neil even repaired the handle on my frypan which had fallen off one morning shortly before they arrived!) I can’t recommend them highly enough to anyone wishing to sell their property.
