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.

Ashley Cedar

"From the first contact I was blown away with Abbie and how caring, supportive and informative she was. I had quite a few questions which were answered quickly and quietly. The communication was superb with the exact right balance so I was not overwhelmed. The paperwork was explained thoroughly and simply. Open homes were a breeze. I did my due diligence then disappeared leaving the rest to the expert. The sale and completion of was amazing. I was thrilled. The professionalism, efficiency, communication and thorough knowledge of her business was amazing. This was the best real estate experience I have had (and I have had a few). Thank you Abbie you are the best."

Julie Osborne

"Abbie and Julie were incredible to work with. From initial comprehensive market analysis in appraisal, to providing an excellent "do to list" before putting on the market (and the "if time- less for purchaser to do" list). Nothing was missed. They were available to answer all our questions throughout the whole process. Open home and private showing feedback was provided each time with useful information and temperature gauge of how property may be placed to sell, or what may be needed to get the right price. Expectations were kept realistic and when the deadline came, multi offers were presented which resulted than a higher than our initially expected price. This was our first time working with an agent who works with both seller and buyer, so we were dubious however Abbie went well and beyond ensuring both parties were well informed and happy with everything. No surprises or hidden things popped up. I would not hesitate to recommend Abbie and Julie as their professionalism and wonderful personalities made a potential stressful situation a very enjoyable process. If I could rate 10 out of 5 stars I would!"

I truly believe it doesn’t get any better than Abbie and Julie. As a mid twenties female I have struggled with other agencies with not feeling heard, or understanding the lingo and processes. Right from my initial inquiry Abbie was quick and thorough with her communication, everything was explained to me in words I could understand, and I left my first meeting well informed, with all my questions answered and I felt confident in the process. Every step of the way from there on out the communication was regular and thorough, the photos turned out amazing, the advertising was top tier, all of my open homes were busy and the detailed feedback reports after each open home were super helpful. The final sale process was smooth and throughout the entire process nothing was too much for them. It was very clear to me throughout the process that Abbie and Julie do this because they totally love it, all communication goes directly through them, there’s no personal assistants or office ladies, the whole experience is personal. I can not recommend Abbie and Julie enough, there is something very special about the way they work, Buying or selling they’re definitely the ones you want on your team!

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.😊

"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."

Martin Wallis

"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."

Mark and Ann Maree Fernandes

Judy & Keith"

Judy and Keith Pearsey

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.
