“Look nowhere else for the best outcome in a residential sale. We knew Claire Curlewis (Harcourts Takapuna) was the ideal agent to sell our house as soon as soon as we met her. Her positive, engaging manner inspired confidence and her honest appraisals throughout the entire process ensured that we were realistic in our expectations. Claire sees property potential, not only in what is, but what could be. Though very busy, Claire was immediately responsive to phone messages, texts and emails, and always accommodated the many requests we had – especially when we were out of the country – going above and beyond. She clearly has a broad knowledge of every nuance of the current housing market. Focused on ensuring for us multiple bidders on auction day, she seemed to also well-nurture potential buyers in order to achieve a win-win.”

Her advice was well given and easily understood, and always had my best interests in mind. When I come to sell my new home in a few years’ time, I will seek her professional services again. What better recommendation could I possibly give?”
Lorna Donald (Buyer) – 10 Beach Road, Hobsonville – Dec 23

She didn’t at any time try to persuade us to purchase or amend our price to outside our comfort levels. She let the process run a natural course, helping and assisting as requested. Claire was a pleasure to work with and I’d fully recommend her as a very professional agent to entrust the sale of your house with, or assist with any proposed purchase. Thanks Claire, for making such a big decision a pleasurable experience.”

In the end we got both my properties sold and I would highly recommend Claire to anyone who is thinking of selling. She is an absolute pleasure to work with and she knows her stuff.”

Claire was always very prompt in responding to any queries we had and giving us feedback from any prospective purchasers. We were very happy with the auction process and pleased that we hadn’t accepted the pre-auction offer that we received within days of the house going on the market. The final sale price was nearly $400,000 more. An excellent result. Thanks Claire.”
Phil Mason (Vendor) – 49 Rangitoto Terrace, Milford – Sept 21

Throughout the process she remained nothing but positive, and was continually encouraging with her feedback and updates. We were absolutely thrilled with the outcome of the sale, with Claire securing a great pre-auction unconditional offer, which meant we did not have to go through with the auction process. A pleasure to deal with!”
Simon and Christine Warwick (Vendor) – 36B Verbena Rd, Birkdale – May 21

The campaign she put together for my home, her guidance on how to prepare my home for the market together with her huge work ethic where she went above and beyond.

Claire worked tirelessly to show us through a number of properties, refining what we were looking for, and never putting any pressure on us to pursue any avenue we didn’t fall in love with. In the end Claire helped us secure our dream home and sadly for her we won’t be selling any time soon, that’s how good it is. But I will be, continuing to, recommend her to anyone looking for a kind and dedicated agent that is by far the best I have come across on the shore.”

She is honest, incredibly hard working, and will keep you well informed throughout the whole process. When it comes to things like this, the real sign of a good agent is if you would use them again.

Rose and Piotr Jasica (vendor) – 29a Verbena Road, Birkdale – (August 2020)
“The Gold Standard Agent. Claire was the selling agent for a beautiful home I have just purchased. After 25 years since my last move, I was a bit rusty in terms of real estate. Claire was sincere, knowledgeable, and struck a fine balance between the needs of her vendor and my own concerns. She listens, and she makes things happen. It’s rare to find people in the world of commerce who are equally capable of empathy and appropriately detached professionalism, Claire has these qualities in spades. I recommend her without hesitation.”

Claire was very professional, easy to talk to and focused on a result for us. Claire captured the essence of the property well in the advertising and followed through on everything she said she would do. She showed kindness and understanding and offered great support and communication throughout the process which resulted in a sale at Auction.”
Julie Reynolds (vendor) – 5 Baltimore Place, Forrest Hill- May 2020
“Thanks for Claire’s outstanding customer service. Claire was an excellent communicator and was tremendously helpful in coordinating between the vendor and us during the purchase process. Our settlement fell within the COVID-19 lockdown which caused many unexpected issues. But Claire was always fast at responding, helping to facilitate the process and getting hold of the vendor for us when they didn’t respond. She really persevered and pushed through the transaction for us, resulting in a timely settlement in the end. Even though we were the buyer, we could rely on her to accommodate our needs as best as she could and she was always happy to coordinate our requests to help us get to a good end result. Really appreciate her responsible and reliable attitude and we would definitely recommend her as an agent.”

We told the auctioneer that you definitely brought us up past our budget and that we paid more than we ever planned to! But we are so happy that you encouraged us to do that as we know it was the right decision. We really couldn’t have got there without you. The house wasn’t even on our radar until you sent it to us. It actually ticks almost all the boxes we hoped for back when we first started looking. Rob and I are over the moon and the kids are so excited.”
Rob Barr and Jen Tapp (Buyer) – 83 Deep Creek Rd, Waiake – November 2019
“Cool, calm and confident – a Shore thing! Claire is the ultimate real estate professional. She kept us informed at all times, offered professional advice and anticipated the next steps before we’d even thought about them. During our search to buy our first home, we gave our contact details to more than 15 real estate agents, but Claire was the only agent who ever called us when new, suitable properties were listed.

The house sold at auction after a huge amount of interest was generated from a great marketing plan.

We definitely recommend Claire to others wanting to sell their home. A 5 star agent!”

“Above and beyond. Being first time sellers, Claire was clear and concise from the start and her knowledge was a key to making the whole process of setting up for selling a little less stressful. Even with a few spanners thrown into the mix from the council, a slower than expected market etc, Claire always remained fully committed and provided us with regular updates. What impressed us most was her persistence with potential buyers, so making sure they always had our property in mind and selling it to them in a way that didn’t scare them off. For buyers sitting on the fence, she really did a great job of creating a vision for them living in the property which ended up being a key to the eventual buyers signing on the dotted line. We would highly recommend her to any friend or family looking to sell.”
Tim & Sharon Reid (vendor) – 43A Verbena Road, Birkdale – June 2019

What is normally a very stressful time was made extremely easy by Claire as she helped us secure a sale and purchase in a short period of time. We would not have been able to do this as stress free as it was without her extreme professionalism and dedication. We would not hesitate to recommend Claire’s service – she is extremely good at what she does, nothing is too much trouble and she always does her job with a big smile on her face.
