"Abbie and Julie of Real Estate Taupo were professional and knowledgeable, and their presentation and enthusiasm was exceptional throughout the selling process of our home. We were continually updated on progress, and we have no hesitation in recommending them. Certainly the best real estate experience we have ever had."

Graham and Helen Scanlen

Group 165

We have worked with a number of agents in the past when selling houses but signing on Abbie and Julie for our most recent sale was the very best decision - they are so friendly, professional, prompt and helpful, we have decided 'big is not always the best' when it comes to real estate companies, Abbie and Julie have proved that. They are both so thoughtful and considerate of your needs while working so very hard to achieve the very best results for you. They treat your property as their own, ensuring it is left as they found it upon leaving after an open home. We would, and indeed have, fully recommend both Abbie and Julie to anyone selling property - their honesty of the market, communication, knowledge and feedback is simply the best.

Elaine and Glenn Tocker

"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

"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

"Throughout, Abbie was wonderfully professional, efficient, patient, calm, and a great communicator."

Christine Cheyne and Terry Kelly

"Barry and I were truly impressed with Real Estate Taupo's outstanding service and professionalism throughout the entire sale process. Abbie's approach and knowledge was impeccable and I would be writing this recommendation even if the property had not sold."

Jacqui and Barry Goold

"Our experience with Julie and Abbie, even though short lived, (sold after our first open home) was the best! Julie and Abbie are great communicators and the whole process was seamless from start to finish. Professional all the way! Thanks Julie and Abbie 😊"

Jane and Bretton Pearce

"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

"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

"Our experience with Julie at Real Estate Taupo was simply phenomenal. Julie went above and beyond in assisting us buying our perfect forever home, she is extremely knowledgeable and always so helpful and responsive. We have dealt with various real estate agents in the past, and can say with confidence that Julie Thompson stands out for her professionalism, competence, communication and transparency. It was an absolute pleasure to deal with Julie and Abbie!"
