Testimonials

Kathy

First National Roper & Jones, Maungaturoto, in particular Agent Nicole Williams and Proprietor Jill Powell, handled the Sole Agency Listing and Sale process for my property in Paparoa which has gone from listing to settlement within a 4-month period, in a relatively slow market.

In retrospect I would say I have found the entire process to be pretty much seamless. The combination of friendly support and professionalism shown by both Nicole and Jill throughout the 4-months has helped me to cope with what is a highly stressful experience. They so know what they’re doing! I felt in safe hands throughout.

My thanks and appreciation go to Nicole, Jill and the whole team at First National.

Kathy

Graham

Jill has given us excellent service. Kept us informed all the way and made us feel she was looking after our interests.

She has high integrity and a very pleasant manner.

Jill and Nicole worked with unrelenting tenacity in a terrible market to sell my place. They were positive, professional, inventive — and successful. I highly recommend them as the best real estate agents in the Kaipara.

Nina

Jill was the exclusive agent for my commercial property in Paparoa and I just want to say Jill made the whole process from listing to settlement so smooth and easy. Nothing was a problem. Communication was quick and efficient, so I put this down to experience and expertise. I would recommend Jill any day.

Nina

Robyn

…thanks a lot for a great job … You were willing to ‘go the extra mile’, and as I work in a Company where ‘Customer Service Satisfaction’ is a priority, you certainly provided that for us.
Any other Agents we dealt with did not seem to have the ‘energy’ that you had when we first approached you and nothing seemed to be too much trouble. … You listened to our request… We are only too happy to recommend you to anyone in the future.”

Robyn

Arina & Jared

This was me and my husband’s first time selling a home, and the staff at First National made the whole process so easy and stress-free. They took care of all of the details, and all of the advertising was included within the set fees, meaning no anxiety about escalating costs. They really listened to us and cared about making the process work for our situation and timeframe. They took really great photos, gave excellent advice, and very quickly attracted serious buyers. We found it really comforting to be able to contact them whenever we had a query, and they were always ready to make time to explain things to us. We could not have been happier with the service we received from First National, who were not only outstanding to deal with, but who demonstrated excellent knowledge of the market and managed to sell our property for a higher amount than we anticipated.
