Testimonials for Belinda Clark

As a vendor, I wish to thank you all for the professional manner in which you conducted yourself in helping me to sell my property.  I appreciated your support and was very happy with the way you kept me informed at all times, hence I would have no hesitation in recommending you to others who are going to embark on selling their property.  A big thank you also for the basket of goodies and book voucher.  Sue Harris

Thank you for the success of selling my property.  I was impressed with your expertise in your marketing programme.  Many Thanks.  Jean Boyce

I would just like to congratulate you on your very outstanding work ethics with regards to the purchasing of a house that you sold to me.  You worked very hard for the sellers and I know you tried to get a lot more for them as a purchase price.  I as the purchaser though, knew my own financial circumstances and stayed within them.  The sale went through very well, then you took time out and sent me some lovely moving of house new address memos for posting.  I also had pamphlets with excellent advice in them for shifting.  The next on the list was the choice of a monthly book to read "North & South" and it arrived.  Thank you for your warmth and friendliness over the buying and selling, at all times your generosity and the keeping in touch without being invasive.  Good luck with the Real Estate arena and I know if you stay the way you are you will be very popular and therefore a great seller.  Laura Nicholas

Harcourts Double Agent Belinda Clark recently sold my house.  Belinda achieved a successful sale in a changing market.  Belinda was excellent to work with and took the stress out of what can be a stressful time.  I would most certainly employ Belinda again in the event of selling my property. J.G Holland

Hazel and I were very impressed with the professional service we received from Belinda when we bought our unit.  She also was very pleasant and helpful and we would recommend her to anyone buying or selling their home.  Fred & Hazel McGregor

Irrespective of the outcome (which in our case was of course a sale) my dealings with the Double Agent was of the sort I like!!  I.E. you listened, you advised, you got on with the task, and presto, a result at what is a difficult market time.   Mike Ryan

Just a quick note to thank you for your efforts in relation to our purchase at 56 Gilbert St, New Plymouth.  We were most impressed with your total professionalism and consistent willingness to help us throughout the sale process.  Buying a property is a stressful event and your efforts made this ALMOST fun.  We will refer family and friends to you - knowing that they will be well looked after.   Rachel Culpan

We would like to thank you considerably for your efforts in the successful marketing and sale of our property via Auction at 118 Pendarves Street, New Plymouth.  As you mentioned not all real estate agents are created equal - we now are believers!  The way in which you looked after our interests in the pursuit of the best possible price available in the market was superb.  The support of your sales team and auctioneers was first class.  Thanks again - we will recommend yourselves and the Harcourts team to all of our friends and family in the future as real estate agents that do what they actually say they will do.  A job well done!  Graeme & Joye Berg

Testimonials for BEN WORTHINGTON

Ben Worthington became my real estate agent after I also met with a number of other agents when deciding to sell my home in Lepperton. Why Ben? Quite apart from his obvious looks, charm and youthful glow he made some very perceptive observations when viewing my home for the first time. He simply appeared to notice things that the other agents hadn’t and also proposed a marketing strategy that no one else had. He listened and was cheerful and optimistic. He got the listing.  Ben then set about quickly implementing his strategy of selling the property. It was listed within hours, open home dates were set and he did everything he said he would do.  Ben’s feedback throughout the selling process was excellent and all decisions were discussed in detail with me prior to any action on his part.   Within four weeks I had two offers to consider – one of which was well over my expected sale price. Within six weeks the house was sold. The process was simple, effective and stress-free.  I recommend Ben to any prospective vendor. He is pro-active, dedicated and funny – in the hah hah sense. He also likes home baking so you just need to prepare for that. Give him a whirl! Rachel Stewart (Happy Harcourts Bell Block customer)

Testimonials for JANICE WAITERE-CROSS

Janice respected our requests throughout the whole process of sale. She 'went the extra mile' to make the process as less stressful as possible. She was very tactful when it came to making suggestions (most appreciated), was friendly, professional, and had the extra 'clout' when it came to dealing with a difficult tenant. I would certainly engage in Janice's professional service when selling or buying in the future. A Quinlan

Just a note to say how much I appreciate your handling of the sale of my property. You recognised the unique aspects of the house and marketed it with a focus on those qualities which I am sure gained a sale price that I was very happy with. You also went out of your way to keep in touch constantly and work all hours to accommodate potential buyers requirements. This is reflected in the short timeframe it took to sell. It was also refreshing to work with an agent who is totally honest and upfront. I will have no hesitation in recommending you to any colleagues, friends or family who are thinking of marketing a property. Ann-Marie Pollard

We met Janice at a Harcourts open home when we were in the market for a rental property.  She went on to show us houses that she thought would be appropriate.  We found her very helpful and when we were successful with a purchase she has been great with following everything up.  It has been the easiest and least stressful property purchase that we have ever done.  We would recommend her to anyone.  Thanks Janice Tara & Andrew Alexander

Our experience with Janice was superb.  With us as first time home buyers she was very detailed and patient with explanations of procedures and kept us up to date by phone and e-mail.  She understands the buyer and works diligently.  She is very professional and helpful and we would highly recommend Janice to others.  No improvements needed!!! Jaco and Chantel Wood

Janice-Waitere Cross was the realtor that we used to purchase our property. In the time we were looking for a property, Janice was extremely helpful, making herself available at all hours. She gave us as many properties as she could find to look at that were within our price range and what we were looking for. Janice is a very friendly and down to earth person who made the process easy and understandable and explained the "ins and outs" of real estate. At no time did she put any pressure on us to make an offer on a property. We would defenitely recommend Janice to anyone who is considering purchasing property as she has made ours an enjoyable experience.  Melissa Bryan and Adam Reed

Through our dealings with Janice Waitere-Cross we found her to be friendly, easy going, patient and professional at all times. Janice made herself readily available and ensured any questions or problems were dealt with by going out of her way if need be, leading to no hassles for ourselves. Janice's personality, honesty and sensible advice meant she became a favourite of ours to deal with. She quickly and efficiently came to terms with what we were looking for in a first family home allowing her to immediately act in our favour when a suitable house came on to the market. We proceeded to sight the house and sign up for it in one day of it being on the market. We would highly recommend Janice as a sales agent and should the situation arise in the future to look for a new house, we will be contacting her to help us. We wish Janice all the best for her future in Real Estate. Lisa and Carl Behrent

Janice was most helpful with the purchase of my new property, I would recommend her especially to my friendsand people I know who are thinking of selling or purchasing. I found her very friendly, easy to get on with. Doreen Rowe

On behalf of Sophie, Georgia and of course myself, I would like to thank you both for the awesome teamwork by yourselves in the purchasing of 49a Doralto Road.  It hasn’t been an easy time for me and you helped me through this and have both been on hand to answer any questions. The service provided has been a very personal and professional one and I would gladly pass on my recommendations to anyone seeking a Real Estate Company to use. I could not fault anything. I am so looking forward to beginning my new life in my lovely new home sold to me by Harcourts. Sharon Lilley

I am writing to convey my satisfaction with Janice Adlam-Waitere as a real estate agent. Initially we were put onto Janice as our previous agent moved onto another role. Janice was enthusiastic and gave us a very thorough appraisal. Throughout the whole selling process, Janice remained confident about selling our house at the price she had given us, even though she faced pressure from some to drop the pricing range. The price she achieved exceeded our expectations, and I attribute this to her keen attitude. Janice also assisted us with purchasing our new property. We sat down and told her what we wanted and what our needs were for our new property. She took all this into account and worked hard to find the right house for us. During the negotiation process, Janice spent a lot of time trying to get the best deal she could for us. We are grateful to Janice for everything she has done for us and we are both glad we chose to list with her and consider her not only to be our real estate agent, but our friend. We would most definitely recommend Janice to anyone considering selling or buying property. Brian and Kirsty Montgomery

We bought our first home from Janice and from the moment we met Janice we felt at ease. Janice has always been very honest, cheerful and easy to approach. Janice never minded when when we called many times with questions. She really helped us through the whole process from start to finish and felt like a friend rather than a real estate agent. We really enjoyed our experience of buying our home; this is largely because of Janice. We will definitely use Janice and Harcourts again in the future as we have had such a wonderful experience. Ryan and Jennifer Tooley

Janice has been a fantastic agent to work with, a very lovely manner, extremely accommodating and willing to the hard yards to sell a property.  She has been a success story for our family and we are sure it will be the same for anyone that engages her as their agent. You have been a pleasure to work with Janice, thanks very much. The Reddy Family

We don't live locally and Janice was great at keeping in touch with us and keeping us informed with progress.  This is the second home we have dealt with Janice and we would recomend her to anyone.  Thanks Janice!! Andrew and Tara Alexander

The amount of energy Janice put into the sale and marketing of our house was excellent and she definately went the extra mile for us.  I feel especially overwelmed by the gift.  Thanks so much Janice. Phil Schroder

I have worked with a great deal of Sales Consultants over the last 10 years and have never had such good service as the last 12 months with Janice working on the Richmond Rd house.  She never once lost the drive to sell what I would consider one of the hardest in New Plymouth to sell.  She kept me up with the play all the way.  Thank you Janice I knew you would sell the house. Mary Jones

Janice was organised, had information of property and was "Action," no mucking around. Nothing was a problem and very thorough. The speed at which our house was bought took away the stress we could have had. Maxine Turner & Chris Sparks

Wonderful Personality, Wonderful, The Best.  Janice kept me informed all the way to the day the house sold.  I am pleased I picked Harcourts to sell our property and I would recommend Janice to everyone.  Many Thanks. Patrick Radich

Thanks very much Janice for an uncomlicated sales, you did a great job for me, I hope to do business again.  Rhys Jones

Janice's warm and friendly manner was most welcoming and she was interested in my needs.  I found Janice to be exceptionally helpful in every aspect, by keeping in touch with all the day to day happenings with the purchase of my new home.  I would highly recommend Janice to anyone wanting real estate. Janice covered everything and more.  Pat Eynon

My partner and I recently purchased a property with Janice Waitere-Cross and I thought I would take the time to write you an email and let you know how pleased Jason and I were with the service Janice provided.  Being a young couple we found other Real Estate Agents (not Harcourts) did not have time to house us through house and point out all the good points of a house.  In short they did not have time for us. Jason and I had been looking at houses since November last year and we stumbled across 34 Lawry Street. Janice approached us with a warm and friendly manner.  From that point on she had us soldnot just on the house but on her and how we could trust in her.  Nothing seemed to be a problem for Janice whether it was for me to show my family around our new home or for me to measure the lounge, Janice would be there waiting at the house to let us in.  An experience that started our daunting, turned out to be a great experience.  Jason and I will be recommending Janice to anyone that we hear of that may be wanting to purchase or sell a house.  Amy Ranford

I would like to thank Janice for selling my property in a tough market.  Her enthusiasm never waivered.  It was a pleasure to deal with Janice and I would recommend her to anybody.  Nothing was any trouble in a non existent market.  W D Lawrence

Janice is without doubt the best agent in the business.  She was the most genuine, hard working, honest and friendly person you could possibly hope to have working for you.  She consistently went above and beyond what was required professionally. Her dedication and enthusiasm kept us positive throughout a difficult sale.  It was a very lucky day when I phoned to list with Harcourts and was put through to Janice and I can't imagine getting better service than we have had.  She has done Harcourts proud and we are extremely grateful.  Thanks again Janice You're the best.   Kim & Dean Russell

As a young couple looking to purchase out first home we had no idea where to start. We met Janice at a open home, where she impressed us straight away with her knowledge, honesty and professional manner.  The first house we looked at was totally unsuitable for us, and Janice tactfully helped us list exactly what our circumstances were, and what we were looking for.  Janice went out of her way to help us find our perfect house, and guided us throughout the entire process.  Her awesome manner made us feel comfortable in what can be a really stressful time.  It really felt as if she was looking out for us and genuinely wanting to help us find our perfect home. We’re now settled in our first home, and loving it.  We would not hesitate to use Janice in the future for any real-estate decisions, and happily recommend her to any friends and family who will listen! Kat & Josh Johnson

I sold my house through Janice on recommendation from a friend. Janice was always very friendly, easy to talk to, and I found her down to earth and thorough with every aspect of selling my property.  Her enthusiasm helped my house sell within 4 days of being on the market.  Her follow up and contact with me was fantastic and I always knew exactly what was happening. Thank you Janice for making this process non stressful for me, and being such a pleasure to deal with.  Rachelle Sutherland

Testimonials for ROBYN PRENTICE

This is a letter of appreciation for Robyn Prentice on the great job she did selling our home.  From the moment we listed with Robyn, she showed enthusiam and excitement.  It was obvious right from the start that Robyn and the rest of the Harcourts Team had the best resourses to sell our home, evident by the fact that at least a dozen of the harcourts agents each gave an appraisal of the homes value, what a huge amount of combined experience.  Robyn's marketing proposal was top notch and the open homes she arranged were most beneficial to the selling of our home. in fact we only needed the one as we sold within a week of putting the house on the market.  And most inportantly we got an even better proce that we would ahve settled for. Thanks Robyn you are the BEST! Best wishes The Hazelwood Family

We were very happy with Robyn's service and would be happy to deal with her again in the future, I appreciated how Robyn followed up my requests. Wendy Bellringer

We would like to formally express our appreciation regarding the sale of our house.  We found Robyn Prentice to be extremely professional, friendly, helpful and her attention to detail was excellent.  Robyn's manner put us at ease and we enjoyed all the contact that we had with her.  Robyn's unobtrusive advice and follow-up service was brilliant. We will be sure to tell others of our experience with Robyn.  Glen West & Tetsu Garnett

This is a letter of appreciation on the great job you did selling our home.  We found you easy to talk to, you listened and gave us good advice on the different options available.  You were able to explain any concerns we had, which set our minds at ease.  Auction was what we went for and it was great, all over in 3 weeks!  We thought Roland did a fantastic job at the Auction and got the best possible price on the night for us.  You were happy to and enthusiastic about selling our house and kept our spirits up with positive feedback.  You worked hard to promote and advertise the house for example dropping flyers in mailboxes.  Even on wet, windy days! You were only a phone call away if we had any questions and you kept in contact with us constantly, informing us on progress, so we knew what was happening all the time.  Having the Harcourts Team all involved with promoting our home was a big advantage in selling it on Auction night.  We found the whole experience relatively stress free and have no hesitation in recommending Robyn to our family and friends when selling or buying a house.  Terry & Jo Palmer

Robyn was cheerful yet had a business-like manner.  We felt at ease with her and confident of her ability to help us make a successful sale. Noleen Gibbs

Betty Smith 

We chose Robyn as we have known her for a long time.  Nothing she could have improved on.  We found her excellent, Robyn jumped in and just did.  We found her to be trustworthy, always on time and called a spade a spade which we appreciated.  We would deal with Robyn again in a heartbeat and certainly recommend her to friends and family. Gary & Jane Simmonds

Robyn was always accessible when I needed to talk to her.  Robyn demonstrated a wealth of knowledge in regards to our property and the current market, around price appropriateness.  Robyn's years of experience as a Real Estate Agent made us feel secure about the whole process. Angela Gates

I dealt with Robyn previously, was pleased with her service and recommended her to Brent.  The house sold quickly (one Open Home) with four offers tabled.  We are happy to tell everyone about the good service harcourts provides.  Brent Wallcroft & Wendy Bellringer

Said & Michelle Habib

We were very happy with the service we received. We found Robyn to be friendly, professional and lovely to work with. We felt she went the extra mile and nothing was too much trouble. She kept us informed all the way which was really appreciated. The fact that Robyn was available 24 x 7 was fantastic. We would definitely use Harcourts should we ever want to sell and most certainly would recommend Robyn to any potential vendors. We have had dealings with other agencies and have not found them nearly as professional. Denis McLeod

I enjoyed the way Robyn worked right from the start.  Robyn new I had only a few weeks to sell my home and she was so organised and had everything done in a matter of days. Robyn is very efficient and a wonderful person to work with.  Also Robyn keeps you informed on what is going on. I would reccomment her to anyone.  There wasn't anything I didn't enjoy about Robyn.  She wash very easy to communicate with at all times. Mrs. Annette Gordon

We would like to put on record to you our appreciation of the work done by, and support we recieved from Robyn Prentice in the recent successful selling of our property at 21A Carlton Terrace.  Our initial dealing with your firm was not very promising for us and we wrote to you about this.  Once you had changed the agent for us, and Robyn was on board she gave us real confidence.  It was not an easy property to sell but Robyn put a lot of effort into selling for us.  We would like you to be aware of our gratitude, and to pass on our appreciation on to Robyn.  Jeanne & Bill van Gorkom

Due to a transfer for career advancement we had to leave our home of 14 years in Taranaki at short notice. Although excited about the career move we were sad to sell our family home and were not familiar with the real estate sale process. Robyn was able to provide us all the information we needed and achieved a sale in a slowing market within three months. Despite being out of Taranaki, we were regularly kept up to date by Robyn with progress on the marketing. Robyn was able to liaise with our Taranaki friends and neighbours so that the property was maintained and well presented at all times, despite being vacant. Robyn’s professional approach and positive attitude were greatly appreciated. Andrew & Susan Hainsworth 

I chose Robyn as she was hosting an Open Home and I liked her approach. I felt confident in her ability and Robyn listened. Robyn always phoned after the Open Home to discuss the outcome. I would be happy to deal with Robyn again in the future. Lesley Agnew 

We met Robyn at an Open Home and since then she has been keeping us informed with regard to Real Estate. When it was time to market our home we called several Real Estate agents but Robyn was the one we felt most comfortable with. We found her terrific, always in touch and she just got on with the job. We received very good advice, she was not pretentious and we would be extremely happy to deal with Robyn in the future. Nellie & David Hewson

We went to an Open Home that Robyn was hosting and were impressed. The fact that she approached us and asked us our names etc, which was something we had not been asked at previous open homes that we had been to visit. We found her to be extremely professional, liked her, and would be very happy to deal with her again in the future. Extremely happy with the outcome of our sale. Ross & Sue Kirkby

We found Robyn extremely helpful and felt her communication skills superb. She kept us informed all the way regarding the deal. Couldn’t fault her and nothing either she or Harcourts could’ve done better. We find the Blueprint very useful and the map as well. We would be very happy to use Robyn again in the future. John & Carol Demchy

Robyn kept us informed of any changes or progress, she went out of the way to keep us informed. Rex Fleming

Robyn sold my home on Sequioa Grove and has kept in touch with me over the years, so I chose her again when I came to sell my next home on Richmond St, Fitzroy, the sale was achieved in a couple of weeks.  Robyn was friendly, capable and very professional in her work, nothing could have been done better, I received very good service.  Claire Stewart

Many years ago, I can't recall exactly when, you came to our door and asked if we had considered selling our home.  The answer at that time was a definite no but we agreed to you having a look through and giving us an assessment of value.  Since then we have recieved your calendar every year and news letters from time to time about real estate matters.  You called again on another occasion and told us that you had a client who wanted a house with trees and you felt our house would meet that desire.  Again, not at that time.  When the time came for us to sell our house with a view of securing a villa in a retirement village we decided that your attitude was what we required in an agent to sell our house.  We were nervous when you quoted a very wide negotiating range but having stated our rock bottom selling price, which you accepted, you launched and conducted the process of sale from advertising, visits by prospective buyers and two open homes all conducted in a very professional manner.  The end result has been very satisfactory for which, our many thanks.  Norman & Mary Chalk

Auctioneer Reference for LISA WESTON

Thank you very much for being the auctioneer for our event, you were fabulous! I was unsure of how successful the auction would be as we only had a few items for sale and most of the guests were students and staff from PIHMS, however you did a wonderful job of extracting every last cent from the crowd :) Your presence on the stage was great, you kept the crowd entertained and interested in the auction - not an easy task to do with a bunch of intoxicated students! In total we raised $320 from the auction which will be going directly to Kidney Health NZ. Once again thank you so much for your participation in our event, it was hugely appreciated.

I would just like to thank you enormously, of the dozen or so properties I have bought and sold, this was in the top 3 of smooth transactions. Largely due to your efforts and enthusiasm for your career, from the international calls over 3 time zones, to driving to the office at midnight to fax papers and not miss a day. Nothing was ever too much trouble. And most of all you were lovely to work with. Jan Aish

I would like to thank Meika for selling the unit at 289d Carrington Street. Her caring and personal approach exceeded all of my expectations.

A great job professionaly achieved. I wish Meika all the best for the future. Marlene Godfrey

I recently had the pleasure of meeting Meika Perry. A lady who doesn't stop smiling. Meika arrived at my place early to get the feel for the house, the couple which Meika showed through my house definitely had the right person. Meika explained everything to them and myself, with complete professionalism.

Dear Meika, I wanted to write to you to thank you for all you did to facilitate the sale of our house. I noticed that you have been awarded the 1st in sales for the month of May. Well-done and well deserved. I am proud to be one of the sales in May that earnt you this award.I would not hesitate to recommend you to anyone I know who is selling their house. You are such a real person. You have the charm of a princess and the patience of a Nun. You are ruthless with standards and gracious with people. You are kind and interested in what people are saying. You are a hard worker and a go getter with the words “Can’t” very distant in your vocabulary. You make friends out of clients yet still remain ‘Mum’ to your Whanau when they need you. When we asked you to become our agent we only saw a flicker of these wonderful characteristics but I knew that that flicker was the beginnings of a spark that started the flame that drew us closer to the explosion of energy and light and colour and vibrance that is Meika Perry. And for that, I thank you and I offer our friendship and welcome you to our new house where I don’t want you to sell it for me, You have done that hard work, I just want you to sit and share a laugh and just be.Coffee is always hot, door is always open, arms are always outstretched, and our hearts are always full when we see that blue Harcourts Rav4 with “Sellem “on the plate and Meika’s great big smile walking up our drive.Thanks again and congrats for the most deserved award you received and for the rewards you gave us by selling our house. With love and friendship, Grace, Craig and Jack Huffam

Testimonials for VANESSA HEDLEY

My family and I had recently moved back to New Plymouth a few months ago after having living and working in Auckland for 11 years.  We sold our house in Auckland and were house hunting for a new home.  We looked at many houses with agents form every Real Estate Agency in New Plymouth and then we met Vanessa from Harcourts.  We discussed with Vanessa what we were looking for and the area in which we were looking and she found the perfect home for us so quickly.  Vanessa was very easy to deal with, relaxed and very professional: she made the whole process so easy and stress free.  I would highly recommend Vanessa to anyone thinking of either buying or selling property in New Plymouth.  Thanks again Vanessa, we are very happy in our new home.  Jo, Damian and Family

Thank for all your hard work and it was a pleasure giving you my land to market. I'm happy with the sale price.  So truely thankyou.  Gary Worthington

We all would like to say thank you for looking after us so well.  Your patience, understanding and care was so much appreciated. We are ever so sorry that we were unable to follow through with a sale with you, but if anytime we have the need, you will certainly be the one and only we will call.  Thanks again.  Jean, Gwen, Glen & Noel

Testimonials for BRAD LETICA

I just wanted to write to you to thank you for the wonderful job you did when we purchase our property in Fitzroy recently.  We had been cash buyers looking for a property in Fitzroy for the last year and had made ourselves known to a lot of agents at each real estate firm in New Plymouth.  We were becoming very tired of Real Estate agents doing the "hard sell" to us on properties.  When we rang you up as the listing agent we immediately were on the defense as we thought we were in for another "hard sell" but instead we were very surpirsed with the wonderful service you provided.  You didn't mess around with the price you thought the property was worth and this was very refreshing and you gave us good researched reasons of why the property was worth that price.  This actually made us feel more comfortable about putting in our top dollar offer rather than putting in a bargain price and losing the property as we have done in the past.  Once we had viewed the property you made yourself available to us at anytime to call with a revisit or any questions but you didn't pester us or put the pressure on.   When we signed up you carefully went over the Purchase Agreement making sure we were comfortable with every aspect and explained anything we asked.  Every part of the sale was done in a very professional manner.  I would be happy to recommend you as a Real Estate agent to anyone - you have such drive and energy and enthusiasm for the job.  If we hear of anyone looking for a Real Estate agent we will let them know about you.  We can't wait to move into our new home.  Thanks so much.  Sarah & Roland Devine

Testimonials for JANINE SLOOTWEG-ZWART

Janine has a bright, bubbly, personality and is a warm, caring person.  She has a huge amount of energy and a very enthusiastic approach to anything she takes on.  Last December 2009, Janine sold our home in New Plymouth.  The whole process happened extremely quickly and the sale went through very smoothly.  Because of her professional handling of the sale, we were spared any undue stress, and it actually turned out to be a very positive experience for us.  We would totally recommend Janine to any of our friends who were considering selling their home.  Gillian and Colin Buckley

I was very much impressed by Janine's hard work, effectiveness as well as her enthusiasm.  She quickly got involved in my private sale and successfully sold our property within 2 days.  Unbelievable!
We appreciated Janine's diligence and her colleague Noel's professional assistance with good and flexible policies and terms to achieve the sale.  I would also like to thank Janine and Noel for their timely organizing of all the documents and papers for both the Vendor and Purchaser.  We believe that Janine will be a new star in the Real estate arena.  All the best for the future. Qian Zhai and Yong Liu

We had recently arrived from Australia, and had a very limited amount of time in which to find a house.  We went to an open home that Janine had, and found her to be great.  We had a lot of questions about how the process differed, and Janine was extremely patient with us and answered all of our questions.  We didn’t purchase the open home house, but Janine kept in contact when she thought that something was suitable.  As soon as the house we bought came up, there was a lot of interest in it and she helped us get it (as we ran into some hurdles)!  We were very surprised when Janine arrived just after moving day with a beautiful bunch of flowers, a gift for us and a gift for our young son.  Janine ensured that we had a fantastic buying experience and is an absolute asset to Harcourts! If we ever buy or sell, Janine will be the first person we call! Shannon and Lee McCallum
