All boxes ticked, and then some

Adam was exceptional in helping us with our house purchase. Very responsive (not more than 5 minutes wait on most correspondence). Very knowledgeable of current market movements. We had a couple hurdles throughout the process that Adam helped to take care of and get it over the line. No question was ever a bad question for him! Well looked after.

Exceptional Service You Can Trust

We’ve had a great experience working with Adam. He is very responsible, attentive, and genuinely take the time to listen to their clients’ needs while offering professional and practical advice.We entrusted them with the management of all our rental properties, as well as the sale of two of our houses, and both Adam and Tracy handled everything with great care and attention to detail. Since we are not based in Invercargill, having them manage things for us has been incredibly reassuring and hassle-free.Highly recommended to anyone looking for reliable and trustworthy agents.

FAQ

property appraisal questions

What is a property appraisal?

A property appraisal is our professional opinion of what your home is likely to sell for in today’s Invercargill market. It looks at your property, recent local sales and current market conditions, so you can decide whether and when to sell.

Is the property appraisal free?

Yes, our property appraisal is free.

What will I get from my appraisal?

You will get your Invercargill property value, an explanation of current market trends and conditions, and local property values to compare against.

What is the difference between a property appraisal and a registered valuation?

An appraisal is a real estate agent’s opinion of the likely sale price, used when you are thinking about selling. A registered valuation is a formal report from a registered valuer, usually needed for things like bank lending, insurance or legal matters. If you need a valuation for one of those, ask the organisation which type they accept.

Will you just tell me what I want to hear?

No. An inflated appraisal wins listings, but an honest valuation sells homes. We give you a figure grounded in local market knowledge, so you can set realistic goals from day one.
