Professionalism with a personal touch - "Going through our first sale and purchase was initially a bit daunting. In Bren, we had an agent who was able to tirelessly work for us and whilst taking on our concerns and questions he also kept it fun and exciting. Bren and his partner in crime, Nicole understood our plan but also knew that it doesn't always go to plan in real estate so were able to hold our hands through the ups and downs. Highly recommend Bren and Nicole and I'm a believer now too - it's always Duck-Worth season."

Bren was absolutely amazing to deal with. Prompt communication, really smooth selling process and always felt like he had our best interests at the forefront. From the get-go he easily explained each step of the process and guided us to prepare our house for market. He even assisted with organising trades, which was a huge help as we were selling from Aus. We’ll be recommending him to everyone!

What a team! We cannot express enough gratitude for the exceptional service provided by Bren and Nicole during the sale of our property. From the moment we signed with them, it felt like a whirlwind campaign that was expertly managed from start to finish. Thanks to their invaluable advice on preparing and marketing our home, the resulting photos and video were outstanding, truly showcasing our property at its best. Throughout the three weeks of open homes and private viewings, they were always available, providing timely feedback and answering any questions we had. What truly stood out to us was the sense of teamwork they fostered - we always felt like we were working together towards the same goal. The entire process was seamless and efficient, and we were thrilled with the outcome. We would highly recommend Bren and Nicole to anyone looking to sell their property!

“An Salesperson Who Wants the Best for his Clients
Bren took the time to know us and understand our needs. We never felt pressured or rushed in making any decisions and he always gave his honest opinion and guidance which we came to value. He is quick to communicate and respond and always working towards the best outcome for his clients. Bren is genuinely invested in getting the best for his vendors. He is a very confident negotiator and has a wide network of prospective buyers and relationships with other agents to successfully sell your house or find your next property. Bren provided an unexpected and outstanding result for the sale of our home and we would not hesitate in recommending him to others.”

How we will spend our weekends now?! 
Secretly we may miss seeing Bren each weekend more than he may miss us. Four offers within a week and under contract by day nine on our home listed by Bren and Rita, both super supportive and professional from the start. We did start to feel a little nervous about our imminent settlement - but Bren went above and beyond and accommodated our whole clan in our search. Bren was unwaveringly positive and remained objective and analytical throughout our sometimes random search - it was clear Bren really cared about our family and our needs. I think proof of this is that we have ended up buying almost the opposite of what we thought we wanted - in a great way! Bren's relationships and respect for his fellow agents and experts was evident by his resourcefulness, speedy communication and planning - regardless of the notice period and difficulties presented. Bren's help and guidance was invaluable and he gave us support and confidence throughout what can be a rather daunting process. Thanks so much Bren, see you at North Harbour Hockey and maybe Netball North Harbour too sometime.

Bren was everything we could have asked for and more…
Bren made the process of selling our house simple, positive and professional. We were blown away with the ease of the experience especially as we were selling from the other side of the world on opposite time zones, but thanks to Bren’s open and efficient communication it flowed easily. A lot of this was due to Bren working around the clock - he was available and willing past the confines of 9-5pm. What can be an anxious time of selling, was actually smooth sailing with a result we were really happy with. He communicated well between not only us but other parties. He was made for this job and his friendly but professional manner ensured the best experience possible. Thank you so much Bren from the bottom of our hearts!

I am delighted to provide a glowing testimonial for Bren and Nicole, our exceptional salespeople. From the moment we signed up with them on 6th August, it was evident that we had made the right choice. Remarkably, our property was sold in under three weeks! Throughout this journey, Bren and Nicole displayed unwavering professionalism and outstanding communication skills. They kept us informed at every step, making this process feel seamless. What made our situation unique was that we were not only selling but also buying a property simultaneously. Bren and Nicole went above and beyond to assist us with both endeavors, ensuring that everything aligned perfectly. Even when the purchaser of our property was introduced through another agency, Bren and Nicole's dedication shone through. They orchestrated the entire process, proving that they excel at making things happen. We couldn't be more grateful for Bren and Nicole's expertise, and we highly recommend their services to anyone seeking a top-tier real estate experience. Thank you both for your exceptional work!

Bren helped us to find our first home in New Zealand and it was a pleasure to work with him. He went over and above the house sales process and it is obvious that he has his heart in his work. Bren made navigating the NZ housing market much easier with his efficiency and experience. He was very understanding of our situation and made the process easier and more understandable.

I want to thank Bren for assisting my family and by always being available by phone for questions or having a property to view. He was efficient in arranging viewing open homes and joined us at as many as he could. Bren supported us through the auction process and helped with finding the relevant reports. Bren worked hard to make our deal happen and he is an asset to the Barfoot & Thompson team.

We chose Bren because of his support for North Harbour Hockey. We had not sold a house in 18 years so Bren and Karin had all the answers to our real estate questions. They went the extra mile to help us get the result we wanted. We would highly recommend Bren, Karin and their team who made the process easy and painless.

Selling a house is never the easiest thing to do but it’s certainly made a lot easier when you have a team of two who work perfectly together. Bren and Nicole were both dedicated to doing the best for us as vendors and their enthusiasm gave us every confidence in getting the job done. We were delighted to sell our house under the hammer and can’t thank them enough for all the hard work they put in to making it happen. Absolutely would recommend them.

We were most impressed with Bren from our first meeting.  He had a charming personality and was immaculately presented.  He brought with him all the necessary information and advice needed to give us the confidence to sign up with him.

As we were living in Taranaki we were unable to enter Auckland and in our absence Bren went above-and-beyond organizing the outside maintenance to staging the home ready for auction. He was extremely efficient, keeping us informed every step of the way. We had an outstanding result far exceeding our expectations due to his efforts.

We have sold several homes both here and in Australia and can honestly state that Bren has been a truly awesome salesperson.  We therefore have absolutely no hesitation in recommending him to prospective vendors ... you will not be disappointed.  Thanks so much Bren and the very best wishes for your future endeavours.

It was an absolute privilege to have Bren manage the sale of my property. He made me feel very confident that my property was in the best hands with his confident, knowledgeable and efficient manner. His communication was exemplary and any questions I had regarding the process were explained in a way I was able to easily grasp. And who can go past that smile!

Thanks Bren - amazing to have gone through this process with you.

“Bren first helped us in our search to find a new house. He took the time to get to know us, understand our style and our family's needs as buyers. He was a constant support to us in finding and securing us the perfect home for the next stage of our life. As vendors, we knew we could place our trust in Bren to advise us on the best sales and marketing strategies for our property. He worked tirelessly, under unexpected and trying Lockdown restrictions and rules. He was in constant communication with us and potential buyers. His hard work took the stress away and managed to achieve a sales result beyond our expectations.

Bren is a savvy, thoughtful and warm person who practises his profession with complete integrity.“

"I’d like to take the opportunity to acknowledge the efforts and energy of Bren in my recent first home purchase. As a hesitant solo first home buyer, Bren guided me gently along the journey and from a buyers perspective, his effective communication made the whole process very easy. He was always so welcoming and friendly, responsive and easy-going while still upholding a high level of professionalism. I would have no hesitation in recommending Bren to friends and family."

“Bren is exceptionally professional and helped us through the whole process making us feel confident and reassured that we made the right decision. I would recommend anyone to list or purchase with Bren as it is guaranteed to be a great experience! 10/10!“ 

“ I am happy to recommend Bren to anyone who is looking for a quality salesperson. Having no previous experience with real estate, it was awesome to have someone friendly who could both answer any question I had, but also teach me the things I did not know to ask.

As well as selling our house, Bren is also helping us to buy our new home. The advantage he brings to this process is being able to point us to new properties, and even surprising us with ones we would not have considered in the first place! 

Bren has been great to deal with, and I would definitely recommend him to others. 

Bren has been absolutely incredible to work with on the sale of our property. He is enthusiastic, highly professional, communicative and 100% dedicated to getting the best outcome. He was there for us through every step of the sale process and we really appreciate the support and guidance.

I couldn't recommend him more highly to anyone thinking of selling!

Bren is a great communicator and was very positive and helpful with the sale of our property. We were always well informed of progress and updated accordingly.
