• Bluff Hill Gayle & Denton

  Leanne's knowledge, advice, and support during and even before we went on the market made our journey so much easier. This lady knows her stuff and that the little things really do make a difference, and they certainly did in our case. Her vibrant personality, coupled with her high level of professionalism, could only have resulted in a win for everyone, and it was. We would highly recommend Leanne for either buying or selling, either one, you can be confident of a successful outcome.

  Leanne was very personable, professional and exceptionally easy to work with. She paid attention to our not negotiables, preferences and wish list, and this was important to us. Nothing was too much trouble and she went beyond the call of duty - we were relocating from Northland and so she went back to our new home, on our behalf, to take measurements that we needed.

• Tamatea Marguerite and Stan

  I want to say we were so fortunate to have met you when we did! After 1 months break from looking at homes, recently having another agent refuse to submit an offer as he has never had a sale with conditions like ours apparently (thank goodness he refused too!), and having several offers rejected previously we were starting to believe that we would never find a home. I even applied for rentals to no avail.
  
  When we met you at a viewing and you were so supportive, not showing any doubt in our ability to purchase and being such a positive professional, we felt for the first time since we started looking as valued purchasers. You listened to our needs, and knew our circumstances and before we knew it we had an accepted offer!
  
  Having a special needs child can be challenging but you were determined to do your upmost best in providing our family a home while also caring for your vendor. The issues that arose during the settlement phase, you handled with ease and such a positive outlook.
  
  It was a pleasure having you guide us into our first home, navigating with the amazing communication and networking skills that you have.
  
  Thank you for believing in us and making our dream come true!
