Thank you both, for all the hard work you put into marketing our property earlier this year, culminating in a successful sale during what has been a very challenging time for real estate. You certainly went the extra mile for us (even delivering water and a power bank to us during Cyclone Gabrielle!), and you were consistently positive and energetic, which we greatly appreciated during a stressful time. Your many years of experience were always evident, and you were always on hand to offer advice. We felt that your marketing campaign for our much-loved home was outstanding, and you were always very generous and patient with your time during many meetings and open homes. We wish you both every success in the future, as your energy and commitment deserve.

In all our dealings, Stanley and Barbara have offered me the very best of help and support – including giving me a lift to the airport and getting a wheelchair after I was unexpectedly hospitalised earlier this year. Just let it be said, that this wasn’t the only way they have gone ‘above and beyond’ what I would expect of a salesperson as well as being such patient, delightful and interesting individuals.

After what has been a very lengthy and frustrating period on the market, the apartment has finally sold – very quickly, admittedly, but it has sold!

I wouldn’t hesitate for a moment to recommend them to anyone wanting to be able to rely on and trust, a couple representing professionalism and integrity.

Helpful, Competent & Trustworthy
Stanley and Barbara sold our two properties, and we can honestly say that they worked hard for us and went more than the extra mile. They are helpful, competent and trustworthy and they have their clients interests at heart, keeping in frequent communication and advising as needed.

Passion & Commitment
We felt extremely fortunate to have secured our next home. Now we needed action to sell our current home. Their marketing material said they exceeded client’s expectations, so we met with Barbara and Stanley Armon. Their real estate experience, passion and commitment was very evident. We shared our timeline and brief. They kept us updated at every step, right through to the sale.  If you seek action, seek the Armons.

Enthusiasm of a Young Couple!
Stanley and Barbara recently sold our house for us. We could not have wished for better salespeople. Stanley and Barbara are a polished and professional team with the enthusiasm of a young couple. It was a pleasure working with them as they showed genuine care for us and our home.  But they are not only fabulous at their job, they go about it with a lovely warm, friendly and relaxed manner that makes a potentially stressful process very easy. They achieved an outstanding result for us and we wouldn’t hesitate in recommending them to anyone else looking to sell.

My sister and I were recommended Stanley & Barbara Armon from Barfoot & Thompson, and we could not have been happier to have them onboard with us. We faced a few challenges due to both of us living in Australia and Covid-19 making it difficult to travel to New Zealand.

We were truly thankful for their professionalism and communication throughout the whole process.Having all the years of experience between them really showed, along with their passion and love for what they do. They recommended we take our property to Auction; they had a fantastic marketing plan and were very truthful with their feedback and advice along the way.

Even from across the ditch we felt always informed, understood and nothing was too much trouble - even my silly questions. Their dedication and enthusiasm to sell our property was above-and-beyond, bringing us a result on Auction day that we never thought possible.

So, we can highly recommend them to any potential seller. You truly will have two fantastic salespeople in your corner who will support you every step of the way.

We thank them so very much and appreciate everything they did to get us such an awesome result.

The salespeople we had from Barfoot & Thompson where fantastic. So informative and honest along with years of experience, which was a blessing for us due to living in Australia. We were truly thankful for their professionalism and communication throughout the whole process. They understood what we wanted and with such enthusiasm and dedication they got us a result we never thought possible. We took our property to Auction on their advice and they could not have been more correct with that choice. All in all, we had a great experience with Barfoot & Thompson and would happily recommend to anyone wanting to sell their property.

Thank you both so much for your effort and help in selling my house and reaching such a successful outcome. And Stanley, above and beyond the call of duty!! Not to mention the advice and humour.
Thank you big Time.

Thank you both again very much for your professional, friendly, helpful and enthusiastic involvement in the selling of Mum's house. We couldn't have wished for better people to go through the selling process with. Amazing people and awesome outcome. Sorry it wasn't your buyer, but we really appreciate your willingness to generously encourage others to the auction floor.
Kind wishes

Helen and I want to thank you both for the outstanding service you provided resulting in a sale, at a very good price, in a very short timeframe. We chose you two because we had seen properties you were marketing in Remuera and importantly on the Awhitu Peninsula. We were hoping for big city expertise with local knowledge. That is exactly what we got! You met us on site within the week of us contacting you and we quickly reached agreement on a fair price at $729k and got our "riding instructions" for matters that need attention to enable the property to look it's best. The photography, marketing material and website were outstanding!
You managed to get about 15 groups through over the first weekend which was quite something given the isolated nature of Wattle Bay. The result was a solid agreement and a backup offer in less than a fortnight from the property going on the market. This was remarkable as we were well aware that properties on the Peninsula usually take months to sell. It was also a pleasure to be introduced to the purchasers and wish them all the enjoyment which we had over the past six years. The sale process was trouble free, and you both were a pleasure to deal with being helpful and eminently reliable.
Kind Regards

"As we are living in Australia we never really expected selling our home to be easy - but The Armon Family made it easy! The introduction/ marketing pack that you provided to us was AMAZING. It was very professional and easy to follow and understand.
Your advice and directions at times we second guessed but we told ourselves "they know what they are doing, let's do what they say." We are so glad that we took every single bit of expert advice you gave us and ran with it. Not one thing you told us to do went wrong or even slightly off track. All great advice that paid off on Auction day. A record sale for the street, and quite possible the area, but a life changing sale for us both.
A friend of ours was in the area one weekend and saw the open home sign and decided to have a look. He was well impressed with your professionalism and called me as soon as he left the property and said "Your salespeople are good. If I sell my house I would want them selling it".

Not only did you help us sell our house but you went well and above arranging builders, painters, locksmiths and even getting the lawns mowed!
Your positive attitudes and undying faith in jumping any hurdles meant the world to us. I don't think words can really express our gratitude to you all for your help. Thank you."

Looking back on the experience of selling our house by auction we now appreciate just how much Stanley and Barbara Armon and their daughter Kaycee Nicholas advised, recommended, arranged, helped and encouraged us throughout the process. Thirty two years certainly was long enough to put down some permanent roots and having to dislodge those and shift quickly was quite a daunting task !
However the assurances we received, coupled with the attention to detail (for example suggesting/arranging experts to advise the best way to present our house to the prospective buyers) helped immeasurably.
Our choosing The Armon Family with their friendly professional assistance, going out of their way to ensure a successful auction, was our fortunate decision.

"Never before has the slogan " Achieving Amazing Results" been more apt. Because we had a very large unusual property to sell, our journey began with interviewing three real estate companies to see who would come up with the best marketing plan and proposal to sell our property. It was important that the approved agent understood the layout of the property, the boundaries and what they meant, and more importantly how to best portray it. The Armon Family's proposal was a stand out! They showed that they understood the property and its value well, and could handle the intricacies of selling such a unique property. We were very impressed with their professionalism and outstanding communication. They were fully engaged with us, came up with great suggestions, delivered on their promises, and helped even to get the house prepared for open days when we could not be present, nothing was ever too much trouble. Because of the size of the property it was imperative to have three people involved on open days and this also ensured we had great security and peace of mind. More importantly they achieved an excellent result for us and we would not hesitate to recommend this very professional family."

"When I originally purchased my house several years ago, I was impressed by Stanley Armon's integrity and honesty in the process. When I came to sell the same house several years later, I decided to use The Armon Family as I already trusted the service, the capability and the professionalism.

If anything, I got a further confirmation of how effective a real estate salesperson can be. They were reliable, honest, determined, informed, proactive and would go out of their way to do things that were 'needed on the day'. They introduced me to the right resource to help me prepare the house to its best, they listened to what was important to me and focused on that, nothing was too much bother in ensuring the house looked its best and had the most viewings.

Having been a buyer and a vendor with The Armon Family, I appreciate their genuine service from both sides. I would use them again for my next purchase."

"The Armon Family was referred to me by a friend. It is with pleasure and gratitude that I share comments on my experience with The Armon Family in the listing and sale of my home.

The experience I had at each phase of the sales process was superior, such as:
* Their advice and recommendations to renovate the bathroom, stage the conservatory and other areas
* The weekly reports and regular communication kept me well informed with the current market
* A sale price was achieved well above expectations

I endorse their marketing slogan, The Armon Family are extremely "Safe Hands" and do "Achieve Amazing Results" I am happy to recommend The Armon Family to any person who is looking to buy or sell a home. I will in future seek their advice on any real estate transactions."

"I normally don't give these type of referrals, as in my position I am always skeptical that there is never a bad reference out there. However, I am drawn to put pen to paper due to the great experience I have had in dealing with The Armon Family.

From the outset, the sale of our house was going to be a little different - as the person selling our house we would never meet face to face as we were in Australia and the house was in Auckland.

I decided to put together a lengthy question list and ask different agents how they would be able to manage us and also the selling of our property from a distance. I sent these to a number of agents in the area and without a doubt your reply was the most comprehensive and professional. So I decided to go ahead and select The Armon Family as the selling agents and there was no looking back from there. In all circumstances you have exceeded our expectations and you have guided and coached us when needed. I knew I had made the right decision when Stanley rang me one night and said it might be good to tidy up some of the old building rubbish that was under the house. I instructed him to arrange a handyman only to find out two days later that you had gone there yourself with a trailer and taken away the rubbish....now that's service. In fact right until the 11th hour The Armon Family did the same when we needed locksmith attention. So besides the great experience, we sold the house only having been on the market for days and again exceeded our price expectation.

So thank you very much for taking ownership and most of all your professionalism and guidance. We have yet to still meet and when we do I will make sure there is a bottle of Moet in hand.

I will have no problem in recommending your service to any of my network and happy to receive a call from any prospective clients."

"I just wanted you to know how appreciative I am of the outstanding result that you achieved in respect of the sale of 12 Landscape Road Mt Eden.

As you know, there were difficult circumstances relating to the sale and the property was in poor condition with major problems involved in getting the property ready for sale.

I had no hesitation in recommending your services to the family involved because I have seen what you have done elsewhere in the past, including the result you achieved for a property owned by our family in Mainston Road Remuera early last year where, again, you achieved what we thought was an outstanding result through your meticulous care in the marketing of the property.

The Landscape Road property had many issues and your advice to Nicholas and Antonia proved to be 100 percent spot on and everybody was delighted with the result achieved, which was well above the reserve.

I understand that you had more than 250 groups that actually went through the property, which is an amazing result.

Thanks again from everybody involved."

"We recently engaged the team of Stanley Armon and Kaycee Bell to market and sell our property after we had previously purchased a property that Stanley was marketing.

We accepted their comprehensive marketing proposal which entailed a three week marketing campaign, culminating in an auction at Barfoot & Thompson's auction rooms. This was a major step for us as we had been living in the house for 31 years but we were reassured and impressed by the teams professional and enthusiasm. They promptly answered any queries which we had from time to time, always had time to give us an update after each open home, and each week gave us a very comprehensive written report.

We were impressed with Stanley's skill at setting a likely sale value for our property, which was above our expectations, and we were thrilled with the outcome of the auction. We believe the result at the auction reflected Stanley and Kaycee's enthusiasm and commitment which ensured that there were multiple bidders.

We would be happy to recommend their services to any prospective vendor or purchaser."

"We first met the Armon's & Kaycee at an open home and were immediately impressed by their professionalism and honesty. Based on this interaction, along with a comprehensive property marketing proposal that really resonated with us, we made the decision to list our home with them. The process couldn't have been easier - the Armon's & Kaycee organised the photographs and text for the advertisement, while allowing us the opportunity to provide our own input. Throughout the marketing campaign we were provided with informal updates following the open homes along with a formal written update on a weekly basis, thereby ensuring that at all times we knew how the marketing was progressing.

The auction process that the Armon's & Kaycee recommended was delivered by a highly competent and experienced Barfoot and Thompson auctioneer, and was well attended by a number of potential purchasers. The price that we achieved was well in excess of our expectations. This can be attributed to the number of qualified buyers that the Armon's & Kaycee introduced, along with the auction process that Barfoot and Thompson executed.

Based on our request, the Armon's & Kaycee then actively identified properties for us to purchase and ultimately found us a place with another Barfoot and Thompson agent that was an exact match to our requirements. Throughout the purchase and auction process the Armon's & Kaycee gave us advice and leveraged their understanding of the purchase and sale process to ensure we were best placed to successfully bid on the property, which we ultimately purchased at auction."
