Abbie was fantastic at selling my house during the nov, dec period. She kept in constant contact, was adptable to changing the selling method to keep viewing numbers up, she kept my informed and reassured the whole way through. She is also just a lovley human who has your genuine interests at heart and wants the best for your realestate journey. Teamed with Julie Thompson the sale of my house was seamless and professional.

"In all of our real estate endeavours, we have never had a more thorough and professional involvement than we have had with Abbie and Julie. They sold our house almost immediately upon listing and talked us through every critical stage of the process. We referred a colleague to them and their home was sold with similar results. We would highly recommend Real Estate Taupo to anyone looking to buy or sell a property in the Taupo region. Signed by two very happy customers."

Darryl and Fiona Hart

"Downsizing and shifting to a new area when you are a "senior" is a very daunting prospect. When you have an agent like Abbie and Julie who are just so knowledgeable and helpful, it makes the whole process just that much easier and enjoyable. I would recommend Abbie and Julie to anyone who requires a "nothing is too much trouble" approach and just good old fashioned service."

I had a great experience working with Abbie and Julie as my real estate agents. They were attentive, responsive, and went above and beyond in selling my home. Their professionalism, expertise, and guidance throughout the entire process made it stress-free and enjoyable. Their marketing strategy was top-notch, resulting in a successful sale. Thank you both for your hard work and dedication!

I found Taupo realestate excellent to work with they gave me all the right advice on how to sell my property, and there marketing strategy was on point,regarding the appraisal,they were the only realestate company that could give me the true transparent comparison of the property's in my suburb.they put a plus &minus dollar value on my property and the other property's that have sold in the suburb in the last 2 months,eg: property A has no double glazing but has a garage,my house has double glazing and a garage,and is fully insulated,they then give me what house A, sold for,and what my house will potentially get from the comparison of the 2 home in question,this is why I gave Taupo realestate 10/10 for being so transparent,and so easy to work with,They sold my house after the second open home ,I will be using Abbie and Julie in the future with my other property's,as well as any investment property's that I'll be looking at in the near future,Thanks heaps for making the process so stress free. Kind regards, Tony Reynolds.😊

"Real Estate Taupo recently sold our home for us. Abbie and Julie truly went above and beyond in getting our house sold in record time - they really are the complete package. They even spoke to our neighbours to let them know what was happening, and were able to organise people at short notice to help tidy up the section. We were always kept up to date as things developed, and we always felt we could trust and rely on them to be straight up and realistic. I could not recommend them more highly, it was by far the most stress free home sale process."

Abbie and Julie made my house selling process so easy. Their honest advice and friendly persona gave comfort during such a big decision-making process. As a first-time seller, they were always happy to answer questions, no matter how big or small; and were always prompt in response. After having already relocated for work, Abbie and Julie looked after my home and belongings, giving reassurance that all was well. They even did a little bit of gardening! They are very professional, yet it felt like you were working alongside friends. For anyone looking to sell, or even buy – go with Abbie and Julie. They are fantastic and produce a great result. Thank you.

Jonathon Tocker

Real Estate Taupo is a caring local real estate company that went the extra mile in selling my property recently. Abbie and Julie are excellent communicators and I felt reassured with them throughout the process. Even through an unpredictable market, we were lucky enough to enter a multi offer situation with a favourable result. 10/10 for Team Real Estate Taupo- efficient, professional and local.
