Graeme Pennell

Gaining Nidd Realty Limited’s annual top sales award five years running − from 2009 to 2014 - have been stand-out achievements in my real estate career.  Since moving from journalism to real estate in 2007, I have been thrilled with the results achieved and pleased to have been able to assist so many people.  A major focus of my career in real estate is to provide outstanding communication and to make the process of acquiring and changing properties as easy as possible. After winning the company’s rookie of the year award in 2007-08, my sales totals have been consistently among the top attained and I am continuing to set and meet high targets, achieving close to an average of $1 million a month in sales and now exceeding a total of more than $70 million.  
Following more than 30 years as a journalist in New Zealand, Australia and the UK, I have found many parallels between the two careers. I believe the key ingredient in real estate, as in journalism, is people and I enjoy mixing with people from all walks of life.

 

Some of My Satisfied Clients

Graeme and the Nidd team were extremely knowledgeable about the local property market, trends, and prices. We felt really comfortable with their advice, and they handled our transaction with expertise and professionalism. Even though we were working long-distance, Graeme took great care of us and our sale happened quickly and smoothly. We have bought and sold several properties in our lives, and have never worked with a better agent than Graeme. He's really the best!

Graeme Pennell acted in a very professional manner during the course of negotiations to sell our house. He had an in-depth understanding of the market together with the ability to identify the needs of potential buyers.
He is a skilled negotiator and was able to successfully manage a meeting of minds with a good outcome for both parties. We would not hesitate to use Graeme again in the appropriate circumstances.
We were impressed with the professional way Graeme worked with us regarding the prelisting negotiations and the marketing and selling strategy. We appreciated the continuous feedback with written, verbal and electronic information over the period of the sale process.

I would like to thank Graeme Pennell for the superb job he did selling our house in Maori Hill. I had previously dealt with several other agents and Graeme was by far the most professional and efficient.
I would not hesitate to recommend him if you are buying or selling a home.
Vince Paddam

We found Graeme to be personable, responsive, focused and efficient in the task of selling our home.
His knowledge of the local property market was in-depth and specific which proved to be invaluable when marketing our home.
This was then sold in the first week of going on the Market which was a great result for us. We would recommend Graeme to others as a capable and effective real estate agent.
Best wishes
