Knocked it out of the park! Peter Tuki is an exceptionally professional, competent and efficient agent! His strategy for the marketing campaign was precisely executed together with a high level of communication and dedication! Peter's warm and gracious persona made dealing with him an absolute pleasure and I couldn't recommend him more highly for a stress free sale!!

Peter is a absolute super star
From the get-go, Peter put me at ease. Having never sold a property before, I felt a bit overwhelmed going into the process, but as soon as Peter and I had our first meeting I felt immediately calm and knew I was in great hands. He clearly explained the process with me, going through every detail to ensure I understood what to expect. He answered all my questions very clearly and kindly made himself available to me to answer my questions following our meetings. He is very knowledgeable and understands the art of selling a home. He got me above asking price and within three days of the home being listed. I’m so happy I chose to list with Peter. He is a such a pleasure to deal with and I couldn’t recommend him highly enough.

An agent who goes above and beyond!
We stumbled onto Peter Tuki by coincidence, but we very quickly became aware that he was a keeper.

His professionalism, his manner and his knowledge made him a true hero for us. He listened to what we wanted, scoped out the houses, sent lots of comps through, before we finally bought a fantastic home. He was upfront and realistic, yet patient, supportive and understanding. It is rare in this industry to come across someone with such a great work ethic, communications skills and meticulous attention to detail - all whilst being the most likeable agent, we have ever come across.

We cannot recommend Peter enough.

A True Professional
Peter is a true professional. He has excellent communication skills and is instinctive with people. His work ethic is second to none and he truly had our best interests at heart.

Perfect service!
Peter provided a service I am very proud to advise, that met all my expectations and more. Peter marketed and sold my home in record time with four multi-offers after the third open home. Peter's marketing, communication, professionalism and strategy to sell my home was exemplary. Thank you so much!

Here we go again..This was our second time selling property with Peter, and again, he did not disappoint.

One of the things that really stands out with Peter is his ability to market a property, and market it well! By helping us to select staging that really complemented the house, using the best in the business for photos and video, all combined with his ability to create the best marketing content meant that we were able to get the highest volume of potential buyers through the doors during the campaign and ultimately smash recent records of registered bidders at the auction. I genuinely do not think we would have had as good of a result if it wasn’t for Peter.

Peter made the process easy, was spot-on with his valuations and as always, just an absolute pleasure to work with.

First class service with results
Peter made us feel like his only clients, with all the time in the world for every question, to chase any lead, and to put his all into our campaign. We felt confident that we could trust him completely to ensure the best outcome for the sale of our house.

The marketing campaign was top s-elf. The photos and brochures looked incredible and highlighted our favourite parts of our home. We couldn’t be more delighted by the sale in only three weeks, or by the service Peter provided.

A True Professional
I found Peter's communication to be quick, clear and honest and indicated his thorough knowledge of the industry. All his decisions were made with my full understanding and approval so I felt in control and at ease when communicating with him. He was not at all forceful in his dealings so I felt in control of my decisions. He showed empathy and true professionalism and I would certainly recommend him.

Excellent Service
I found Peter to be very professional in his dealings with me. He provided helpful suggestions which then lead us to the most practical way to market our property. At all times he kept us well-informed of feedback and progress which brought us to a successful conclusion. I would recommend him to anyone.

Your success is TOTALLY dependent from your local agent! Peter Tuki was the right ONE.
Dear Home owners! It is my pleasure to recommend Peter Tuki as a real estate agent for anyone who is looking to sell. To be successful, number 1 is.... to have RIGHT ONE and Peter is that one. He was able to recover previous fails and find out the right recovery tools and used his very fresh touch in marketing. He is generous, authentic and has that intuition for current demand and supply. Communication was just incredible and I felt he helped me as if I was his immediate family member.

Dear Kiri and Peter

I don’t normally do this type of thing but this is an exception. I wanted to extend my sincere thanks to you at Barfoot & Thompson, for the services of Peter Tuki.

We are a South African family (both my husband and I are investment bankers) who moved to Auckland in Jan 2020, and were legally permitted to purchase a home a year later. We were introduced to Peter by his sister, and we met him in November last year.

As you know, the NZ property market is a unique world of its own, and we were not only plunged into the chaos of a heated market at the end of last year, but also into foreign suburbs, strange house building techniques, complicated buying procedures and an army of required property service providers. As much as we desperately wanted our own home, we were overwhelmed by the complexity of the process.

In swooped Peter. A Buying Agent (we didn’t know such a service existed). He took us in the palm of hand and held us tight until he bid on our behalf (for the fifth time he tried to negotiate a deal for us) on Thursday and we bought our dream home in St Heliers. From the time we met, he said repeatedly “I will stick with you no matter what, until we find you a home”. He didn’t let us down.

I wanted to tell you how Peter blew us away.

• He visited us the very night we rang him at our home, to understand our need
• He brought us homemade cupcakes (made by his wife Lauren) as a Christmas gift
• He took us (personally chauffeured us) to more than 100 homes for viewings (at least three nights every week and at least four hours on the weekend)
• He didn’t flinch as we changed our preferred buying location from the North Shore to the Eastern Bays
• He didn’t flinch as we changed our budget (after my husband procured a permanent job after being in contract for six months) and our home criteria changed
• He responded to us from 6am until 11pm 7 days a week when we sent him links to places we liked, and to provide us with detailed responses, motivation, and updates
• He scoured every possible property site and researched every layout to find us a house and layout he was comfortable to recommend
• He visited every house ahead of time so he knew what to expect, and binned houses he felt wouldn’t work for our family
• He phoned every other salesperson who was selling a property we’d like - to find out the background
• He set up every appointment for us (many of them) with the building inspector and was on-site to let him in each time
• He reviewed the legal docs before they went to our solicitor so he understood the contents as well
• He repeatedly visited us on Sunday evenings to sign docs
• He took extra videos in the houses we loved, so we were reminded of what we were bidding for
• He brought over donuts and pastries to soothe our broken hearts when we lost a house on auction
• He sent us names of where we could buy good quality outdoor furniture to cater for Kiwi weather conditions
• And along the way he patiently taught us, and taught us, and taught us. Patiently, empathetically, respectfully. About NZ, about areas, about the property market, about resale values and about construction.

When Peter won our home for us on Thursday, I heard the crackle in his voice. He was as invested in our new home search as we were. And we felt it. I can’t explain to you what a comfort it was along this journey, so far away from our lives that we left behind in another country, to know that someone in New Zealand sincerely cared for our family’s future here. It has meant the world.

Thank you for having such a remarkable human being in your business. He has touched us deeply and it is a privilege to have met someone with such level-headedness, such honour, such commitment, and such an impeccable service ethic.

We will remember Peter and Barfoot & Thompson always.

With warm regards

We thought finding our first home would easily be a project for a few months.

Peter was very engaging right from the very first conversation. He helped us narrow down the size, type of structure and the convenient locations based on our affordability, in a very friendly manner.

As first-home buyers, we were scared to even look at property listed on auction, but with his expertise, Peter guided us through and assured a way to work around. That was the key..... in our house-hunt journey, which made a difference. We still can't believe that we found our first home in a week in such a competitive market

He is very professional and upfront about the pros and cons which made us trust him over other salespeople.

I strongly recommend Peter to anyone who needs help with buying or selling.

Peter you rock😀👏

Thank you

“I didn’t realize I needed Peter….until after it happened. He made the whole process super easy. I had work constraints … not a problem…. I wasn’t sure what time I could make it to viewing… not a problem.. Peter was sooo accommodating. He asked me questions on my requirements that I hadn't even thought of!! And actually found me my lovely place first go (I think that’s unheard of)!

I really recommend Peter, super easy to work with….I’ll be a repeat customer in the future.”

Selling our property was a breeze with Peter Tuki and Tania Brown. We were kept well informed throughout the process and ahead of time for any requirements, so felt no pressure during the transaction. On our visit to the first open home we noticed the degree of professionalism the prospective buyers were greeted with and how well the specification of our property was conveyed to them. We thoroughly recommend them.

Peter did a fantastic job helping us find and purchase our new home. He was very proactive and regularly in contact with advice and ideas and he was extremely generous with his time and support.

Peter is very thoughtful and exceptionally customer-focused with great energy and enthusiasm with a personal touch. We want to say a big thanks for all his help particularly in bidding for us successfully at auction.

We highly recommend Peter, a great guy and a pleasure to work with.

"Peter helped us find a great house after we had been searching for quite a while. Peter listened to the boxes we wanted to tick in our new home and took them into account and found us the perfect property from Barfoot & Thompson's inventory that we had not seen, despite numerous searches using other search platforms.

This was only the second house we have ever bought so we are still quite the property novices and Peter answered our questions no matter how trivial they seemed. Acting as our buyer’s salesperson, Peter took all the stress out of the buying process and did the leg work for us, while we were dealing with the sale of our own property.

Peter has a passion for real estate and it shows in his level of service. We now have a great home and would highly recommend getting Peter on board if you are looking at buying or selling your house."
