SOME CLASSICS NEVER GO OUT OF STYLE. AND THIS ONE DIDN'T STICK AROUND!

SOLD | 9A Carysfort Street, Mount Maunganui

Two weeks on the market. Over 25 groups through in the first week alone. Multiple offers, a back-up offer and one very happy set of vendors!

Not bad for a 1965 Mount classic.

From the moment this one hit the market, the response was fantastic. A home full of character, a beautiful renovation and a location just a short stroll from the beach. Buyers certainly saw the appeal.

But a great property is only part of the equation.

The right presentation, a considered pricing strategy and a marketing campaign designed to get people through the door all played their part in creating genuine competition.

And the result? SOLD in just two weeks.

A huge thank you to Gemma and Andrew for trusting us with the sale of your much-loved home. It's been an absolute pleasure helping you make your next move.

And to the new owners, congratulations! You've secured yourself a little piece of Mount Maunganui magic.

Thinking of selling? Even in a more considered market, the right strategy can make all the difference.

The SOLD sign is the part everyone sees.

What you don’t always see are the conversations at the kitchen table. The planning, the questions, the decisions. The phone call after a quiet open home, or the careful negotiation when an offer comes in.

That’s where so much of an agent’s work happens.

I want my clients to achieve a great result and feel confident in the decisions that get them there. To know what’s happening, understand their options and feel comfortable asking the same question twice.

Selling your home is a big deal. You deserve honest advice, clear communication and someone who cares about what the move means for you.

Because when the sign comes down, how you were treated still matters.

JUST LISTED | A Mount Classic With Motivation to Match

Born in 1965. Still turning heads.

You’ve seen the teaser. Now meet 9A Carysfort Street.

A nod to the past with a cheeky wink to the future, this Mount classic has had one seriously good glow-up.

The newly renovated kitchen takes centre stage, while outside it’s palms, privacy and a deck made for summer. Add majority double glazing, a detached garage, plenty of off-street parking and the beach less than 600m away (approx.).

And the future? Their next move is firmly in sight, backed by genuine motivation.

SOLD | 206 Ranginui Road

This one feels extra special.

206 Ranginui Road has officially SOLD, and honestly, I couldn’t think of better people on either side of this one.

Aidan and Kate are repeat clients of mine, which means more than I can probably put into words. And now Jaryd and Vicky get to take this incredible section, with those amazing views, and create something pretty special of their own.

They’ve also scored some of the best neighbours you could hope for, who happen to be previous vendors of mine from 10A Carysfort.

Lately I’ve been thinking a lot about the people I get to work with.

Real estate can be a hard grind. There is so much that happens behind the scenes: problem solving, navigating the unexpected, anticipating issues before they become problems and sometimes having some pretty difficult conversations.

One thing I’ve become much more intentional about is working with people where there is mutual trust and respect.

Sometimes that also means recognising when I’m not the right agent for someone. As hard as it can be to walk away from an opportunity, I’ve learnt not to force it. I’d rather refer someone to another agent or simply leave it be than try to make a relationship work when it doesn’t feel like the right fit.

And strangely enough, the more I’ve done that, the more I seem to be attracting genuinely lovely people.

Good humans.

People who trust how I work, value what I bring to the table and allow me to do my job properly. And in return, I will work incredibly hard for them.

This sale feels like such a perfect example of that.

Repeat clients selling. Wonderful new owners buying. Past clients becoming their new neighbours.

Pretty bloody cool, really. 🥂

Congratulations Aidan, Kate, Jaryd and Vicky. I can’t wait to see what comes next for all of you. 🤍

What can happen when two buyers really want the same home? đź‘€

This week’s EVES auction results were such a good reminder that buyer feedback does not always tell the full story.

One property had feedback sitting around $1.2 million. It was declared on the market at $1.280 million, then two determined bidders competed all the way to an impressive $1.452 million.

Across the week, EVES held 14 auctions, recorded 15 bidders and received 144 bids, with seven properties sold.

An auction is not automatically the right method for every home. But when the property, buyer pool and campaign suit it, a clear deadline and genuine competition can uncover a result that private feedback alone may never reveal.

If you are considering selling and would like an honest conversation about which method would best suit your home, get in touch ;)
