We keep each other fully informed of the status of your property and are both ready to take it to the next step towards closing the deal.  Sharing phone-calls, hosting inspections and open home means we are always fresh and relaxed and at the top of their game in representing your property interests.

Firstly here are a few short testimonials we have received

“Your professionalism & experience shone through and made the whole process trouble-free.  We have no hesitation in recommending you to all.” - S&R Milner.

“In addition to an excellent result in the sale of our property, we also made two new friends.” - M&C Walls.

“We were introduced to Mark & Lisa through Richardsons Real Estate of Whitianga. Mark & Lisa did a stellar job marketing our property and hung in all the way for what ended up an arduous 7month journey. They were very dedicated and got us there in the end with a great price … We are pleased to be able to recommend them to others buying or selling on The Peninsula." - Anthony & Katie HC.

“Everyone needs an optimistic, friendly and professional team when selling their home, Mark Boyd & Lisa Nielson are that team”  - Mitch & Claudina Herceg.

"Upon first meeting Mark and Lisa the experience was relaxed, informative and a pleasure to work with them both. All questions were answered promptly or if further information was required there response time was relatively very quick and precise. I have all faith in these two, very professional but also very personable which is not that common today." - Jenny and Graham.
