I am a well-known and respected sales professional, with the drive to make every transaction a satisfying experience for you, my client. I believe the key to the successful sale of any property is knowledge of the market and a strategic marketing approach, tailored to suit the individual features of your home.

With a background in imports and marketing management, I have a wealth of experience in successfully negotiating deals. I am renowned for my genuine straight-forward approach as well as exceptional communication and people skills.

Being multilingual is an advantage when it comes to selling property in the Eastern Suburbs. My fluency in English, Hindi and Punjabi gives me the ability to relate to people from many cultures and backgrounds and form strong relationships. The network I have built up over my years in the business enhances the potential of finding a buyer for your property.

The unique structure of Barfoot & Thompson's network throughout the Auckland region, allows me to list and sell anywhere without restriction. It is not uncommon to have salespeople from the many diverse cultures within the company, introduce a buyer from anywhere in Auckland. We all work together to sell your home. The support is unrivalled.

I want my clients to be delighted with the result achieved. To be recommended to family and friends is the greatest compliment I can receive. I respect the trust my clients place in me, to sell or buy their most valuable asset, their property.

I am trustworthy, understanding, a great negotiator and an amazing listener!! Instead of listening to this glowing review (I wrote about myself), you could instead choose to work with me and be a part of top results!!

What my clients say

The most hardworking agent in town

Sham provided me with an excellent quality of service and was able to present my property at its best and then sell it at a good price. Highly recommended him to anyone looking for a great agent.

Nour

You are so appreciated
Thank you very much for the service provided by Sham and Jessie. With their 120% effort, despite the tough housing market conditions, we were able to successfully sell and achieve our expectations. We are very grateful!

Hanson

Work super hard for their client! A positive experience all round.
Sham and his partner Jessie, were fantastic. They were tireless in their work to sell our property. They have a straight-talking manner with their clients, a good sense of humour (and reality) and they really SELL your house to potential buyers! They gave us advice as to what to do to our place (more than just 'paint the ceilings') prior to the listing going public, and this undoubtedly added 10's of thousands to our sale price. It also minimised buyer 'turn-offs'. While there were some things we couldn't afford to update, Sham & Jessie didn't judge, they just got on with the selling! We had a multi-offer situation and Sham & Jessie steered us through the complexities. These guys are great - they speak several different languages, and know the opportunities that are out there in the community. We cannot recommend them highly enough. If you are someone who wants to sell your house for the best price in the market, and are willing to work within an energised, positive 'team' environment, these are the agents for you!

My Experience with Sham Lal as a Buyer
I wanted to take a moment to express my gratitude for your help in finding and purchasing my new home. Your expertise and guidance made the process smooth and stress-free, and I am very happy with the outcome.

Throughout the process, I was impressed with your communication and responsiveness. You always kept me informed of new properties that matched my criteria, promptly responded to my questions and concerns, and guided me through the negotiation and closing process.

Your knowledge of the local real estate market and your attention to detail were invaluable in helping me find the perfect home that met my needs and budget. I appreciate your patience and willingness to work with me until I found the right property.

Overall, I am extremely satisfied with my experience working with Sham Lal and would highly recommend your services to anyone looking to buy or sell a property. Thank you for your exceptional service and professionalism.

Very professional and Excellent service!
Sham was very helpful in my recent home purchase. He was extremely patient to all my queries which made my house buying experience a walk in the park!

Santosh

Excellent service
Had an excellent experience dealing with Sham Lal. I had a four-lot development that Sham sold in no time even in these tough market conditions. Would highly recommend.

Gagan

Fantastic Agent!
He just made everything so easy and straightforward. Always available for any doubts or question. Lovely person to deal with.

Jakrapun

Skilled agent, good communicator, great market knowledge and highly tactical.
From the outset Sham's approach (vendors living separately) with us was friendly and patient. He understood our situation and directed his attention to us individually and calmly despite having to repeat everything to us twice.

His market knowledge proved to be highly valuable when we put our trust in the process and brought the auction forward (the house had only been on the market one week, not the planned three weeks). He explained his reasoning and was proved correct when the house sold for well above the pre-auction offer.

Sham's skills took us to the best possible outcome. I especially appreciated his communication skills - he kept us in the loop at every step.

Sham is every part a skilled tactician working for the vendor.

Jeff

Great experience
I would like to thank Barfoot & Thompson for helping me with the auction process, particularly regarding the home-staging process, which helped to sell the house quickly.

Bing

Empathetic expert guidance
In this property, we have found our dream home and our forever home and I'm not sure that we could have done it without the support and expertise that Jessie, Sham and their team provided. They run an incredibly efficient process while being keenly aware of and attentive to the needs of both their prospective buyers and their seller. They knew the sellers, the property, and it's history well, had a strong understanding of the market, and were very easy to connect with.

Jessie - the care, attention and empathy you gave us throughout the process was far beyond our expectations. And Sham - the warmth, confidence, and deep expertise (plus your fantastic sense of humour) helped put us at ease at each step along the way. The support and encouragement that you both provided on auction day went far beyond what we'd expected and we are very grateful.

We hope to never have to leave this property, but if that day comes, our first call will be to Jessie & Sham. Meantime, we'll be recommending them to everyone we know who is either looking to sell or buy in this area.

Thank you both again for your help through this process!

I highly recommend them to the vendors and buyers as well. Jessie and Sham always provide the best professional service and prompt responses whenever I have any questions. The way they represent the property and perform their open home was always in the vendor’s best interest. They are also good communicators with honesty and integrity."

Sham Lal helped find a suitable house for me and my family, as I was struggling finding one on my own. I appreciate the property which he found for me and my family. Sham has done an excellent job for me. I would ask Sham if I were to purchase another property in the future. He has perfect communication skills and I want to thank Sham for finding me and my wife such a wonderful property.

Good marketing skill and help me to present the house in its best presentation, the result that has achieved is remarkable. Once again, thank you for your kind assistance and will recommend you to my friends if they need to buy or sell any properties."

Keneath Kwong

"I am impressed by the professionalism demonstrated by Sham & Sidney in the selling of our house. From the first site visit to the settlement of the transaction, they have provided us information in advance on every single step. So we are pretty confident about what is going to happen. The marketing strategy is excellent that even before the first open home, we had already received offer for a pre-auction. The final selling price is exceeding our expectation by far. I have no reservation in recommending the service of Sidney and Sham to anyone who is considering selling houses."

Andrew Ho

"Dear Steve,
During the processes of buying and selling houses, my family and I have come to know Sham Lal whom we highly appreciate and would like to recommend to other customers. Sham is great. He has been friendly, patient, thoughtful and passionate. With persistence and dedication in providing first-hand information on new listings, we found our dream house. Yet without the precious advice and experience in auction, our dream can hardly come true. What impresses us most is the way he helped us in selling our house. We are truly grateful to their sincerity and diligence in securing potential buyers by all possible means to the last minute. The remarkable result of our auction today is attributable to their concerted effort. It's proud to have Sham in your branch; He is role model for others in Barfoot & Thompson. We would highly recommend Sham to friends far and near."

TK Cheng and family

"We chose Sham Lal of Barfoot & Thompson to market our East Auckland home after interviewing three other agents because he was most approachable and believable of all the agents we saw. We were presented with a very clear marketing plan and schedule and we were provided with some very sound advice in regard to how to approach this sale. The sale was completed far quicker than we had anticipated and with a minimum of fuss and most importantly we believe Sham secured the best possible price for our property. All in all this was a very good experience."
