Client Testimonials

Terri was a breath of fresh air from the onset of the open home. I found her very friendly and very willing to share information when I asked a question about the property. Nothing was a problem throughout the process and Terri offered information to make the whole journey run smoothly. Terri was wonderful at following up with any details that were needed and she responded promptly. It was so refreshing to have Terri by my side as I found her communication was very valuable and genuine. Thankyou for making me and my buying experience more of a positive experience. Robyn

Pete is attentive, patient with buyers, good market knowledge, professional and communicative.

We were very pleased with Pete's service as our agent. In a difficult market he organized a good deal for all of us.

Sharon was friendly and professional and always communicated every step along the way to selling two houses in Kerikeri. Her advice with regard to staging and presentation of the properties was always spot on, and she worked hard with open homes and dealing with buyers.

An absolute superstar! From start to finish, Andrea made the whole process a breeze – and a lot of fun too! She kept me in the loop every step of the way, was caring and accommodating, and delivered a fantastic result. It’s not just about one person though – the whole team at Real rallied around me throughout the process. You can tell they genuinely care, and that “all-hands-on-deck” approach really shows in the results. If you’re looking for an agent and team who combines professionalism, personality, and a whole lot of heart – you’ve found them!

Pete kept us completely up to date on what was happening. He gave honest opinions on what was most suited for the sale of our property. Easy to deal with and an enjoyable experience. Also, Real totally work as a team and we feel this is a major benefit to a successful outcome. We would have no hesitation in recommending Pete as your agent.

As a Kiwi currently living abroad, I was unfamiliar with the process of purchasing property in New Zealand. From the very beginning, Terri was by my side—knowledgeable, patient, and the calming voice you need on the end of the phone. She understood exactly what I was looking for and, incredibly, found my dream property within 24 hours! Her calm and capable guidance made the negotiation process swift and stress-free. Most importantly, I found Terri to be truly trustworthy, which made all the difference when navigating the purchase from overseas. I couldn’t have asked for a better agent.

Terri came to us with an offer that needed some work. She was able to get the result we wanted without any fuss or stress soon after this initial offer. We are so impressed with her approach. Definitely value her expertise.

Sharon and Real Property are just that, real, real people that know how to treat their clients with honest good old fashioned respect. Sharon was a total pleasure to have as our agent.

We had a great experience with Pete at Real Kerikeri. His advice was practical and encouraging. Amazing communication throughout and we received wonderful support from his whole team. Thank you for helping us sell in a challenging market!

Sharon made my life 100x easier with purchasing a property from another country. Very helpful, experienced and just overall lovely to deal with. Can’t thank her enough!

Easy to deal with. Puts a lot of energy into supporting the sales process.

Andrea was very welcoming and not at all pushy. She was professional in her dealings with me and if she didn’t immediately know the answer to my questions she found out and got back to me in a timely manner. Nothing was too much trouble for Andrea. She followed everything up right to settlement date and beyond. I have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Andrea to any prospective property purchaser and I wish her all the best in her chosen career.

Thanks for the assistance you & your wider team have provided in achieving the desired result all round & obviously in particular to Sharon who has navigated this success through some uncharted challenges for us both. I believe this is the last stepping stone for me to finally now be able to move on with my positive life.

Pete is very knowledgeable and a pleasure to work with. He really made the whole experience of buying a smooth one. He helped the whole way through the process and I really appreciate his patience and knowledge.

We had the pleasure of working with Pete Gentil during our recent move from Wairarapa to
Kerikeri, and we can’t recommend him highly enough. From the very beginning, Pete took
the time to genuinely get to know us and understand exactly what we were looking for in a
home. Every property he showed us was thoughtfully selected and a great fit—he never
wasted our time with anything unsuitable.
Pete really respected our limited availability when we visited Kerikeri, always making the
most of each trip by lining up multiple promising properties. He was never pushy, always
upbeat, and maintained a consistently positive and encouraging approach throughout our 9-
month search.
Thanks to Pete’s dedication and care, what could have been a stressful process became a
smooth and even enjoyable journey. We’re so grateful for his help and wouldn’t hesitate to
recommend him to anyone looking to buy in the area.
