Paul, the perfect Real Estate Salesperson choice - We were recommended Paul and Sharon by others who had chosen them and were delighted, as were we. Paul’s attention to detail and up to date market knowledge is impressive. We had been in our home for 28 years and required a gentle approach to selling our family home. The selling process was explained so clearly and our many questions were answered quickly and efficiently. We followed their suggestions throughout the whole process being guided at every stage. We felt totally at ease and Paul’s professionalism was second to none. Even though it was a new experience for us, we enjoyed every step of it. Great people to deal with and they really do give ‘Real Estate ' salespeople a good name! We recommend them wholeheartedly.

Simply the Best
This is the second time Paul and Sharon have sold for us - a rental property last year (amazing result!), and our family home this year. The communication, marketing and reporting was top-notch, and there were no stones left unturned as Paul and Sharon brought multiple bidders to our auction and squeezed every last cent out of every bidder. We were kept fully informed throughout the auction, and this enabled us to make very timely decisions that led to a great result under the hammer. At no stage were we put under pressure by them. They treated us with the utmost respect and it gave us great confidence that we were making the right decisions on the day. Thank you Paul and Sharon, you are a fantastic team and we genuinely don't believe any other salespeople would have come close to getting the results you achieved for us - and we know a lot of salespeople! Your professionalism, market knowledge and ability to handle our stress and keep us calm and focused was greatly appreciated. If you have any potential clients that want to discuss further, we are more than happy to talk to them.

We have used Paul and Sharon for buying and selling for 30 years and this amazing result is why we have stuck with them. Again, in this case, their professionalism and attention to detail played a big part. They covered all the bases and left no stone unturned. They always listen carefully to what we want and guide us in our important decisions. Not at all pushy, just thorough with a clear demonstration of their experience.

Yes… we were the vendors and in a supposedly “doom and gloom” market (according to the media) – we got above our dream price in just 11 days, with a pre-auction offer in just five!

"I’d like to place on record my thanks to Paul Donovan and Sharon Walls for the professional and helpful way they recently guided me through the process of selling my house. Although I had owned the property for over 40 years, it had been let out for most of that time while I lived in the UK and I had never sold a property previously. From clearly outlining the sales process, getting a LIM report, to recommending a surveyor, for advice on staging and preparing the property together with recommendations on marketing campaigns, we went from initial enquiry to a satisfactory sale at auction in just two months. At all times I received timely feedback on how things were going and sound advice every step of the way. What can be a stressful experience ended joyously with a great result at auction. I have no hesitation in recommending Paul and Sharon for their professional service, excellent communication along with their care and attention to detail.

As a first home buyer, the process of purchase was both unfamiliar and at times confusing. I was grateful for the professional and efficient conduct of Paul and Sharon who were easily contactable for any arising issues whether urgent or minor. I look forward to working with Paul and Sharon in the future, whether it be engaging their services for the sale of my property or as a buyer.

Paul and Sharon have been my preferred salespeople for the sale of two homes. On the first occasion their open, efficient and very friendly manner was the key to selecting them, and the result was a very satisfying outcome.

Hence, I had no hesitation in asking them to sell the next property in Mt Eden. Once again their professional manner, clarity in the marketing, setting up of the property, and management of viewing was excellent. Throughout the process their communication was regular and full, so that I felt very confident prior to going to auction, where the sale price exceeded my expectations.

I would not hesitate to recommend them.

"Having had multiple occasions of sale and purchase of property, Paul proved to be an exceptional salesperson, ticking all the boxes and making the experience of selling my mother's home relaxed and well informed at all times. Apart from a successful marketing and open home's programme, Paul and Sharon went the extra mile to assist me in a number of ways. While being fairly well informed about real estate, I trusted Paul's guidance and support throughout, which gave me confidence that the outcome would be as good as it could be. Both he and Sharon were very supportive on the auction day, and I could not have wished for a better 'team' to work with. Superb."

As a property developer, I have dealt with many salespeople both buying and selling andI found Paul and Sharon great to deal with. Their marketing appraisal was well-researched, professional and the price we achieved on auction day was at the very top end of the range they predicted. They were straight talking and delivered exactly what they said they would. I have no hesitation in recommending them to anyone looking to sell their property and will certainly use them again in the future.

"For us, any relationship is all about trust. With Paul and Sharon, we had this in spades. Their attention to detail in organising the marketing plan with the photography, video and advertising were really innovative. Were our expectations met - NO -they were exceeded!! Would we engage them again? in a heartbeat."

"Paul and Sharon from Barfoot & Thompson Mt Eden sold our house in May of this year. From our original meeting, we were impressed by their professionalism and thoroughness. Their knowledge of the real estate market and their ability to read the ever-changing market just prior to lockdown was invaluable. We were extremely happy with the auction outcome and achieved a price almost 20% above CV in what was at the time, a very uncertain market."
