5 STARS

Rosemarie

Husband and I after 43 years in our loved family home made the hard decision to sell and move. After looking at several houses in Maugaturoto, we found our perfect house real easy with First National Kaipara with their agent Karyn. Lovely home and amazing garden! Unfortunately too small to fit all our furniture. Karyn was so lovely and knew that I really loved the house and garden. We told Karyn what we needed from our forever home. Karyn called us a few days later to tell us she had a place for us to look at, also told me it had a blank canvas for me to work with in the garden. All I can say is Karyn really listened! She had found our forever home!

Thank you Karyn for also being there for all our queries and guidance with the purchase……cannot wait to sit and watch the sunset with a glass of wine on the deck  of our forever home.

To say that we cannot wait to move to this property is an understatement.

Alumita and Ian

Karyn and the team at First National helped us navigate our way through to the successful sale of our property; we were very impressed with their professionalism and communication skills , always keeping us up -to- date with progress ,and going the extra distance by making numerous personal visits to the property to ensure both the seller and the purchaser were comfortable with all aspects of the sale. We highly recommend their services.

I found Karyn to be polite, approachable and very professional. She disclosed everything I needed to know about the property I was viewing and provided all written information needed. Karyn’s non-pushy manner was refreshing, yet she was more than happy to research detail for my later enquires. Her communication skills were excellent, and I was impressed by her prompt, informative, concise replies. When my computer and printer both broke down at a critical moment, Karyn calmly came up with a solution of emailing the documents direct to my solicitor. She showed good attention to detail, ensuring accurate information was obtained for the legal documents and enabling settlement to suit both parties.

Karyn did a perfect job of helping me surprise the children with the keys to our new holiday home (that I had kept a secret) when I took them to it for the first time for a ‘camp night’. She gave us a huge gift bag with  a beautiful wine, and loads of other amazing gourmet treats, that we were able to start enjoying straight away.

This was really an unexpected and especially lovely touch that clearly showed Karyn’s thoughtfulness. I would happily recommend Karyn’s sales and marketing consultancy services to anyone.

Thanks Karyn!

“I never got around to saying a proper thank you for the super job you did in selling our house. And how fast you delivered as promised. That all went very smoothly. High quality service and extremely professional. Thanks Karyn.”
