After deciding to list our investment property, we interviewed 3 agents active in the area. All 3 would have been good choices, with similar views on the current market pressures and trends. What separated Aaron was that he seemed genuinely focused on acheiving the best possible price for the property, rather than just securing a quick sale. Before our first meeting even finished, Aaron had scheduled a follow up call for later in the week. All 3 agents knew we were meeting with other agents, all knew the property was going on the market asap, but Aaron was the only one who offered a follow up. We also felt that his pre market strategy was superior. He suggested a soft open home to buyers already on the Harcourts database, which proved very sucessful and resulted in the property selling before it officially went to market. We were very happy with Aaron's professionalism, communication and approach througout the whole process and recommend him highly.

I can’t recommend Patrick Skinner and the team at Spillane Property highly enough. Selling a home is always a big decision, and naturally I went in with a mix of expectations and uncertainty. From the first meeting, though, Patrick gave me complete confidence that I had made the right choice, and the final result exceeded anything I thought was possible. What stood out most was Patrick’s professionalism and honesty. He kept me in the loop after every inspection and inquiry, explained the process clearly, and never made me feel rushed or pressured. It was clear he cared about the outcome, not just making a quick sale. The marketing campaign was first-class. Everything from photography to open homes was spotless and well thought out. The level of buyer interest and competition they generated was beyond what I’d imagined. And then came the outcome: a new suburb record for Shortland. Totally unexpected and honestly almost unbelievable. Throughout the negotiations, Patrick stayed calm, level-headed, and transparent. Always giving me clear options and never pushing. That level of trust is invaluable. You can tell he genuinely cares about his clients. The wider team at Spillane Property were also fantastic: friendly, efficient, and professional from start to finish. If you’re thinking of selling, and want an agent who’s honest, hardworking, strategic, and truly committed to getting you the best possible result, I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Patrick Skinner and Spillane Property. I couldn’t be happier or more grateful. Thank you again.

I can't thank Matthew and the team at TaylorHedley enough for the incredible job they did selling my home. From our very first conversation, Matthew made me feel supported, listened to, and confident that I was in the right hands. Selling a home can be an emotional experience, but Matthew's kindness, honesty, and genuine care made the whole process so much easier. He kept me informed every step of the way and always took the time to answer my questions with patience and professionalism. I was absolutely thrilled with the result he achieved, and I'm so grateful for all the hard work and dedication he put into the sale. It was clear that he truly wanted the best outcome for me. Thank you, Matthew, for everything you've done. I would wholeheartedly recommend you and the TaylorHedley team to anyone looking for an agent who genuinely cares about their clients and delivers outstanding results.

From the moment we walked through the home on open home day, Gareth was super warm and welcoming to everyone. He kept it real the whole time, and ensured smooth process through out. He even came on his day off to let us do a sold sticker sign. He really is so helpful and wants the best outcome for you.
