What my clients say

Just thought I'd let you know how much I appreciate the hard work and long hours you put in trying to sell my property recently, in what must have been the toughest market to sell in.

Considering how difficult it was getting people to an open home under these conditions, I was surprised that you found a person interested in my type of property, which can be difficult to sell during good times let alone the times we are in.

That you secured the sale also, left me doubly impressed. Once again a huge thank you for your efforts.

Martin Young

Our larger family group has engaged Max to sell properties in the past and on both these occasions the market was flat and the properties were in need of work but Max took us through the whole process with his usual efficiency, eye for detail and good humour and we were very pleased with the better-than-expected results. He has been a salesperson in the South Auckland area for nine years and has accumulated a wealth of information, has an excellent work ethic, is very personable and always immaculately presented. It is for this reason we engaged him again to market our family home of 53 years and once again, Max got us through this difficult time during a lack-lustre market with a good outcome. If I were to sell again he is the first person I would approach and I would have no hesitation in recommending him to anyone else.

Successful Outcome Achieved
I found Max Narayan to be completely honest, kept me fully in formed as to marketing schedule, very accurate in market expectations and really put effort in to achieve a sale. Very good communication, a pleasure to deal with, professional in all dealings.

Margaret Cadogan - Seller, 07 Jun 2024

I would like to say what a pleasure it was to have Max handle the sale of my mother’s property. It was abundantly clear from the outset, that he was well-informed, reliable, always punctual, and we were kept up-to-date with market changes, our responsibilities and supplied with weekly reports on the number of interested parties who had viewed the property.

Max was always impeccably dressed, polite, cheerful, obliging and courteous. We appreciate that this is not the best time to be selling a property, especially an older one but the fact that it sold at auction the first time round for such a good figure, is testament to the effort that he put into the sale.

In conclusion, I would just like to say that we would have no hesitation in recommending Max to any relatives or friends who might be considering selling a property. He is the consummate professional.

Pat Cadogan

Thank you so much Max, for your help. Being a first time buyer in the current market space is not easy but with a salesperson like you, it was absolutely a positive experience. You were so helpful, friendly and had the perfect sense of humour to lighten a stressful situation and for that, I couldn’t ask for more. I consider myself lucky to have met you.

From the very beginning, Max was devoted to giving me an honest opinion and guided me through the process. He explained everything to me, gave me advice when needed and informed me of all my options. He always let me have time to think about things with a no-pressure approach.

Max took the stress out of purchasing a property and made the whole process very easy. I cannot thank Max enough and would highly recommend him to anyone thinking of purchasing. Thank you again and good luck.

I just thought I'd send you a quick email, to let you know how relieved I was with the recent sale of my property on Marr Road on 6th July, considering the downturn in the market. Max did a great job with the market we had to work with. He always kept me up-to-date and well-informed leading up to the auction, and was really nice to work with.

And even with the market dropping the way it did, I'm still pretty happy with the result.

Good morning Brett. My name is Phil Whiteside. Last week my house on Weymouth Rd, Weymouth sold, as a result of the efforts of your team at Barfoot & Thompson, in particular one person, Max Narayan.

When I decided to sell my house I was unsure of which real estate salesperson to go with. I chose to go and see Barfoot &Thompson in Manukau first, as I knew they had a well established history of real estate in New Zealand. I was somewhat nervous and anxious as I walked into the office. I told the receptionist I would like to speak with a salesperson about selling my house. Max came to see me and directed me to a room.

I had no expectations about our meeting but wanted to keep an open mind and hear what Max had to say. Within 10 minutes of our meeting, I knew straightaway that I wanted Max to be the one to sell my house. He came across as a quiet, humble man. Max explained the selling process to me in a simple and straightforward manner. I was so impressed with his synopsis.

During the selling process, Max arranged the photo shoot and open homes for my property. He was very good at keeping me informed of these events and what it would mean to advertise and promote my property to a wide audience of potential buyers. He also explained my role in the selling process to ensure a good result.

The whole process ran smoothly over several weeks right up to auction day. I feel it was the best advice I could have had from Max about going to auction. As it turned out, in the end it was the right decision. The auction was very emotional for me as I was unsure whether I would get a good price for my house due to the current downturn in the market. Once the auction started, it was very stressful for me, a feeling I don't experience often. However, Max was there and gave me confidence that a good result was imminent. It was. After Max had several discussions with the one bidder, they offered a price that I was happy with. My relief was palpable. The stress just flooded out of me. I can't thank Max enough. In my view he did exactly what he said he would do, and got me the best result possible. I owe him a lot. Now I can move on with my life to the next chapter thanks to Max.

Phil Whiteside

Max Narayan, over the time he took on our property and started the marketing right through to settlement, showed a focus and attention that we have found to be the best experience for our family!

He obtained an outcome we never thought possible. We saw that this came from him showing an open willingness to take an interest in our property to the maximum, going any day or time to meet and show our property.

Thank you Brett, Max and Barfoot & Thompson so much, for this great outcome.

Lee & Dan Reichenbach

Hi Brett
I just wanted to extend a big thank you to your team especially Max, for the amazing result we got on Seton Place, Clover Park.

I would like to acknowledge the outstanding service we had with Max Narayan. From the start of our property sale to now, he has been above and beyond for us. The effort and professionalism portrayed by Max during the COVID period really showed that we were in great hands.

Ensuring we were updated with every aspect of the marketing campaign to the open homes and private viewings. I would definitely say he left no-stone-unturned. Your company should be proud to have such an amazing asset in your team.

In the end Max pulled out a result me and my family were over the moon with, and will be forever grateful to his dedication in the campaign.

We thank you and your team for all the effort in the sale of our family home. We will definitely pass on the word to family and friends about Barfoot & Thompson.

Kind regards

Hi Max & Ravi. First of all it has been a great pleasure in meeting you both not just as real estate agents but genuine caring people. As first home buyers my wife and I would like to thank you in helping us find our first property. It can be a very daunting task to look for the right first property which ticks the right boxes. We had been looking for our first home for a while and had met several agents but none like yourselves who treated us like close friends and you showed genuine care. You both have a great deal of experience in your field and you made the whole process as smooth as can be without rushing us or causing us stress. Whenever we had any questions, you guys were always available to clarify or answer our concerns no matter what time of the day.
We are very happy with our purchase and would highly recommend you guys to anyone buying or selling their property.
Warm regards

Max Narayan displays the attributes of a successful professional in his chosen area of residential sales. I found him to show professionalism in the areas of;

• Clear communication on his planned approach, with continual follow-up and always on time.
• Very well presented with an easy style that gave me comfort when discussing the sales approach.
• Extremely polite.

This work practice of Max has achieved the incredible result of the house being listed and then sold in less than two weeks. I have no hesitation in recommending Max as the residential salesman you would want to prepare, market and sell your home.
Regards,

Paul Maitland

Recently I listed and sold my property at Harmony Ave Otahuhu with Max Narayan. We would like to take this opportunity to say it was a exceptional experience we had with this salesperson throughout the whole process .
We were referred to us by our friend and we had never met or spoken to him prior to deciding on selling our property although I had his contact details for over 2 years.
From day one we knew and believed in him he will provide the service we expected, he went beyond that. Our property sold within two weeks of listing and we can't thank Max enough for his expertise and dedication in achieving the result we were hoping for.
Will recommend him to anyone any day of the week.

Deepak & Varsha

I would just like to take this opportunity to express both my own, and my wife's, feelings regarding the service we have received from Max Narayan and Ravi Sharma when selling our property. These two chaps did an outstanding job. They worked tirelessly and they were relentlessly positive, extremely professional, and exceptionally pleasant to deal with. They kept us in the picture every step of the way, and they made every effort to achieve the result we were after.
They are great guys with a good sense's of humour and I would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending them to anyone.
Please convey our sincere thanks to both of them.

Bob and Sandra Stretton

Max has done a fantastic job in selling our house. He kept us well informed on day to day events and I had full confidence in him. Personally he has been a wonderful and trustworthy agent and I would not hesitate to recommend him to my family and friends.

C P Singh & Kusmawati Singh

While searching for a house to purchase we looked and looked and became frustrated at the housing market. While visiting our nephew and his family we stumbled upon a contact to help us purchase the property we desired. That person was the ever smiling and cheerful person we now know as Max. During this process we found Max to be like a pit-bull and he never gave up. Being picky customers as this was a big step from renting and listening to the various requests we had Max set out to find us the home we desired in our chosen area and price range. After a lifetime of customer service I know the importance of good client customer relations and Max went above and beyond that to find me and my partner a place to call home. Max explained things to make us understand if we had questions he went above and beyond to find a solution or to point us in the right direction. By meeting Max we found house hunting to be a less stressful task.
His willingness to go and work around our busy work schedules be ready to help us view when it was outside open home times made rushing around to view a property on a weekend less stressful. I would recommend Max to anyone wanting to purchase a house. His dedication to the job would make anyone looking to buy less stressful.
Max we would like to thank you from the bottom of our hearts for the help you provided us and the professional attitude to house hunting.

Asha and Martin

When we started looking for a place of our own it was stressful as we weren't aware of what to look for or expect. Specially in such a competitive market.
Then we met Max. Max went above and beyond what would have been expected. His dedication to our family through this whole process was outstanding. He listened to our wants, our needs and found the balance that suited us perfectly. With the care and attention he became more of a friend and property mentor than just a realtor.
It has been a great experience with him and much more knowledgeable one. I can personally assure that he is one of the best people we had dealt with in our ordeal to find a home.Hence, we thought to let you know how our experience has been. As worked in customer oriented field, I certainly understand the value of feedbacks and I hope this is certainly a great one for Max.We wish him all the best and will definitely recommend him to anyone we come across looking to buy/sell a house.
Kindest Regards,

Haezal
