Harcourts Lower Hutt

Great experience. Lorraine is very professional and friendly, and very patient in her communication with me. She was able to communicate very smoothly with everyone involved in the transaction. When I meet some problems, she can give me some advice and help. Lorraine is a very trusted agent. We have a very pleasant cooperation.

Highly recommended agent!Madel, was very helpful throughout the entire process. We were first time home buyers and we had a baby due, soon. We really hoped, we could find our very own home, before the baby arrives, and Madel made it possible.Madel went above and beyond in helping us find a warm, affordable, brand new home, within our means.She was very informative, quick to respond, and patiently answered all our countless questions.Thanks heaps, Madel, it would not have been possible without you.You are the best!

Great communication. Selling our house with Harcourts and in particular Celia Barnao was an easy, no stress experience.Good communication was the key. We were kept informed every step of the way with results on open homes and private viewings. Celia also had the hard conversations with us at times when we needed to reprice due to market downturns. We would recommend Celia and her team to anyone keen to get their home sold. Overall a great experience.

Lorraine has done it again - SOLD! Given her lifetime experience and passion for the real estate industry it was really no surprise to us that Lorraine Girvan sold my parents home in 5 weeks, well over the RV during an economic down turn with multiple offers no less. We took her knowledge, advice and guidance during the process which turned what could've been a very stressful time into a simple straight forward process. Thanks Loraine, you really are the best in the business.

Experience counts for sure! Lorraine has a wealth of knowledge of the real estate market and this was invaluable when we were preparing our house for sale. She is very hard working and kept in touch with us every step of the way through the sale process. Her advice was realistic for this difficult market and we adjusted our expectations accordingly. We would definitely recommend her to prospective sellers, thanks Lorraine.

Lorraine was recommended to us by a family member, and the recommendation was fully justified. She was very knowledgeable about the local market, and gave us excellent advice on what our home needed to get it ready for sale. Communication with Lorraine was very good, and feedback on the open home attendees was a useful guide to what the market was thinking.

Great outcome, and great to deal with. This is the second house that we have sold through Sinead. Right from the start she has been brilliant to deal with - clear, realistic, responsive and straight up. Throughout the process it was the same, no BS and we always knew what was going on. The end result was a good price in the prevailing market and a stress-free experience getting there.

John Donnelly is a superb agent - knowledgeable, helpful, professional and friendly.John was wonderful – he was extremely helpful, professional and friendly throughout the whole selling process. He has considerable real estate knowledge and experience and kept us fully informed of the changing market conditions and the buyer interest in our property. He was always happy to answer our many questions and discuss the best strategies to meet the market. John worked very hard on our behalf and his communication was excellent. We were trying to sell during a difficult time of falling house prices and low sales and thoroughly appreciated John’s unfailing positivity and conviction that a buyer would come our way - and they did! We highly recommend John.

Highly recommended! Sinead and her partner Christelle Van Zyl were absolutely amazing for our selling experience. We were very impressed and couldn’t have been happier with the outcome. Sinead was clear about what she expected the home to sell for given the market and it’s what we ended up selling for which we were very happy about. We were given updates weekly after each open home and otherwise if there was interest. The house sold quickly! Communication was also fabulous. Both Sinead and Christelle responded right away generally. We were also given recommendations for various people, such as a house washer and stager etc and they were great. Christelle did all the communication for our stager so I didn’t have to worry about that at all. All in all a great experience and I would use them again. We picked Sinead as she was the agent we originally bought the home from and had a wonderful experience as a buyer and weren’t surprised when we had just as good an experience as sellers!

A͏ great sale in a down marketLorraine was extremely helpful to us, not only when we bought 10 years ago but also recently with our sale. She has long standing knowledge of the area and was very helpful getting the house on the market. Her communication throughout the process was professional, giving us lots of feedback along the way. We ended up having multiple offers and was successful in selling in a very difficult market. Thanks Lorraine!
