The sales process went well, and we were very pleased with the result. Communication was first rate and we have nothing but praise for the way he conducted himself and the sale. Highly recommended”.

Dear Richard,
“Thank you so much for all your hard work, patience and guidance that you have shown to us through the buying process. We are also so grateful for you going to the Auction for us, it really made all the difference. We are so excited to get the house and are really looking forward to planning the next step”.

Richard & Angela Morbey

“We engaged the services of Richard when we moved from Taupo to Tauranga recently. Coming from a small town to a big centre was daunting to say the least. It was a great source of reassurance to know that Richard knew the different areas of the Tauranga, Mount and Papamoa markets and was able to listen to what was important to us, and ‘tailor’ a home to meet our needs. He was personable and able to liaise with other real estate agents to ensure we got to view a wide range of properties. It was a relief when he found a home that ticked all our boxes and was able to help us secure it at auction. We would have no qualms in recommending Richard to anyone who is in the market for either their first home, family home or investment property”.
