Vic Trivedi helped me sell our newly-built houses in Henderson at desirable prices last year.

In this fragmented market space, we were attracted to Vic because he is a knowledgeable professional and an inspirational person. Vic guided me in the design of compact townhouses that cater to the needs of first home buyers. He really stood in our shoes and listened and understood what we thought. I especially appreciated Vic's target customer analysis and property development suggestions, and he was also very willing to share knowledge and resources. This is especially important for us who are engaged in subdivision development for the first time.

Due to the Lockdown caused by Covid-19, the house was completed almost a year behind schedule, at which time the market price changed significantly from the original forecast. Vic was very responsive to the market and kept me informed of the latest market situation and gave accurate advice on prices. Furthermore, he was also extremely patient and responsive, never forced me to make any decision, and always replied to my messages within a short time.

There are so many highlights during my experience with Vic. I definitely wouldn't have been able to achieve my target if I were working with another agent. All in all, Vic is the best agent I have ever worked with and I would highly recommend him to any friends involved in property development in West and central Auckland.

I wish Mr Vic great success in all his future career and I can be contacted if any clarifications are required.

It was a pleasure working with Vic Trivedi, who seemed to have all the answers to our real estate questions. I would highly recommend him. An agent who made our transaction all so easy and painless. Vic is the best. He is a great person and a great agent. I will definitely be working with him again in future.

Thank you Vic.

Working with Vic Trivedi from Barfoot & Thompson to sell our property was an absolute pleasure. His level of professionalism, market knowledge, and dedication exceeded our expectations. We couldn't have asked for a better partner in this process. Vic conducted a thorough analysis, provided us with a realistic and competitive listing price. His insights and recommendations were spot-on, and we felt confident that we were in capable hands.

Throughout the entire process, Vic maintained open and transparent communication. This level of responsiveness gave us peace of mind and ensured we were always in the loop. One of the most impressive aspects of Vic's service was his negotiation skills. He had a clear understanding of what our asking price was at the first meeting and he really surprised us by bringing an offer which blew us away. We cannot recommend Vic highly enough for anyone looking to sell their property. His dedication, market knowledge, and outstanding service set him apart as a top-tier real estate agent.

If you're seeking a partner who will go above and beyond to achieve the best results, Vic is the agent for you. Thank you, Vic, for your exceptional service and for making the selling process a positive experience. We are truly grateful for all that you've done.

Buying a home in New Zealand is many people's dream. It's a basic need for a family and we work hard everyday for achieving the same. Hence, when we approached Barfoot & Thompson via Vic and started the conversation about buying a home, it's one of the very special things and moments where we felt close to our goal.

Moreover, the experience and personal touch by the agent can leave a long-lasting impression on the minds of the family.

We cannot express how lucky we feel to have Vic in this regard. Highlighted below are a few points that made dealing with him and Barfoot & Thompson a seamless experience:

1. Any phone call with him - audio, video, or in person, scheduled or unscheduled, we always found warmth, enthusiasm, and confidence in talking to him. Whether he is working or on holidaying in any part of the world, he was always available for us.

2. He was transparent and clear in his communication and discussed with us the pros and cons of any approach very openly, especially the terms and conditions, rules and regulations.

3. As a Barfoot & Thompson agent, he always gave us enough time and information to make the right decisions regarding our family home. It never felt rushed or pushed in any way.

We feel immense gratitude and appreciation for giving us an excellent experience dealing with Vic and Barfoot &Thompson!

When we were new to the housing market and investment industry in New Zealand, as outsiders, it was hard to understand what this industry was all about. How do we buy a house, is it the right time to buy, whom can we trust, what is a good house option in Auckland, and what is the market trend at the moment etc. were a few of the initial daunting questions we had. I feel immensely grateful that we met and got to know Vic as a Barfoot & Thompson agent, a professional and expert but more as a wonderful human and trusted friend now.

Three of his great qualities (not limited to these), are highlighted every time we approached him:

1. Vic's knowledge and experience in the housing industry is immense. Every time we talked to him, we felt we were in safe and the right hands, whether it be with regards to understanding, rules and regulations, it is a value-for-money deal, making us understand the requirements of other professionals involved like a lawyer, or banker.

He can confidently talk about (and closely predict) figures, data, market analysis and current trends, housing options, etc. with great ease and experience, which makes us so comfortable having Vic on our side and as a guide.

2. This genuine care, compassion, and vested interest in us. Which is not limited to just helping to buy a home, the very feeling of comfort and ease to ask any questions, to discuss any needs and requests openly. The ease with which he handled all those questions and fears in our minds. He always made time for our phone calls, emails, or in-person meetings! He has kept up his unsaid promises to give the best service and experience!

3. Also quite evidently noticed, Vic has great listening skills, the ability to ask questions that matter, and the ability to be 'present'/mindful, which really helped him connect with us and obviously us with him. Moreover, he guided us at every stage professionally by being calm and composed even when we felt it was a chaotic situation. We really enjoyed the fact that, our discussions were not just limited to buying a house and what kind of house, but went way deeper into topics like mindfulness, education, food and nutrition, upbringing of kids, good value inculcations, etc. Hence helping us share thoughts on topics that matter to us in day-to-day living. Obviously, he is so well read and we must say his knowledge and understanding of 'life' as a whole is so sorted and rich!

A great personality and what a gem the Barfoot & Thompson company treasures! We were not at all surprised when he was awarded one of the best agents in the West area and Auckland as a whole. He deserves much more than that!

We are very thankful to Barfoot & Thompson for providing such an amazing service and value!

Vic was amazing from the day we met him at the open home. He was very professional but also very friendly and accommodating at the same time. We caught up with him a few days after the open home and he was very transparent, honest and genuine. He helped us in every step of the buying process and provided updates as he progressed with the negotiations.

He definitely made it stress-free for us to the best of his abilities. We truly enjoyed working with him and felt that we were looked after and taken care of. Considering that agents work for the sellers, Vic was different as we felt that he really wanted to help us in achieving our goal when others normally just want to close a sale.

Vic was very thorough in explaining all the important details, answering all our questions and communicating to the sellers all our concerns in a timely manner. Throughout the whole process, he displayed his vast experience, knowledge and expertise which proves why he is a top agent. We're glad that Vic was the agent for the house that we recently purchased otherwise it could have been a different outcome.

We look forward to working with him again.

I am delighted to take a moment to pen this outstanding review for the exceptional services Vic provided as an agent during the recent sale of our property. Vic's unwavering commitment, professionalism and expertise made this experience truly extraordinary, and I want to express my heartfelt appreciation.

Here are some key elements that set his service apart as truly outstanding:

Incredible market insight: Vic's in-depth knowledge of the real estate market, combined with his understanding of the local area, was evident from our very first meeting. His guidance in setting an optimal price for our property was instrumental in attracting the right buyers.

Marketing mastery: Vic's marketing strategies were nothing short of brilliant. The way he presented my property, from the stunning visuals to the compelling descriptions, was exceptional. It caught the eye of potential buyers and generated genuine interest.

Negotiation expertise: His negotiation skills were masterful. Vic skilfully navigated the complexities of the deal, ensuring that my interests were well-protected and resulting in a deal that exceeded my expectations.

Effortless communication: Throughout the process, Vic maintained flawless communication.

I am happy with the successful sale of our property, and I firmly believe that Vic's dedication and expertise played a pivotal role in achieving this outcome. I have the utmost confidence in recommending Vic's services to anyone in need of a property agent.

I look forward to the possibility of working with Vic again in the future and will certainly refer friends and family to him.

I have known Vic for around the last eight years and it has always been an absolute pleasure dealing with him. His understanding of the market is amazing. I have had dealings with him as a first-home buyer, an investor and also as a developer and in every scenario he was very informative and easy to deal with. Have always recommended him to everyone I know looking to buy or sell a property and whoever ended up dealing with him knew they were in capable hands. Vic is incredibly knowledgeable about the local real estate market, and his expertise made the entire home-buying process a breeze every time for us.

I also appreciate Vic's honesty and integrity. He never pressured me into making a decision and always had my best interests at heart. This level of trust is something that's hard to find in the real estate industry. Vic has got amazing skills as a salesperson and I am pretty sure he can sell a house to someone not even looking to buy one.

When I originally took the plunge and decided to put my home on the market and started engaging with agents to get a feel for who I would like to help sell my house, I had talked and met with a couple of agents (one with Barfoot & Thompson and one other) before I met up with Vic. I knew from when I first talked with Vic regarding my home, that he had the energy and enthusiasm I needed to get the job done to a high standard.

When I had decided to commission Vic to list my house, he came prepared and equipped with evidence of what was possible and how we should promote the property. This included relevant information about the development potential of the property, along with a list of developers he and his team had direct relationships with. This was the exact opposite of what I was advised from the previous agent. This gave me the confidence and determination I needed to start my journey of selling my home.

At the risk of carrying on too long, in-short, I really enjoyed my engagements with Vic and throughout the campaign, when I asked question after question during all hours of the day and night, it was never an issue. We got there in the end, with perseverance and tenacity from both sides of the table.

Vic – thank you, sir! I see your value and I hope Barfoot & Thompson does too. Until we sell together again!

Ngā mihi

I have dealt with dozens of salespeople over decades of real estate transactions, but I have never met a salesperson who understands the property in Auckland the way Mr Vic does. Being a Computer Engineer and property developer himself, he has an in-depth knowledge of the potential of the land. He is truly a master of real estate property knowledge, and genius at strategising marketing campaigns. And when it comes to sales, I have not heard of anyone who can generate results the way he does. Sold several of my properties, above my expected price, mostly within a matter of hours.

I recommended Mr Vic to everyone who wants to conduct a real estate transaction. It’s always best to deal with someone who has mastered their craft.

Hi Mike

I just wanted to drop you a note about Vic Trivedi. He recently sold our property in Sun place, Henderson.

We're super impressed with the service we received from Vic. His marketing strategies, negotiation skills, and attention to detail ensured the process was an easy and lucrative one for us, and we couldn’t be happier we chose him to list our property. His expertise, market knowledge, wisdom, and guidance along the way was invaluable for us. He went well above and beyond our expectations to ensure we got the best price for our property. He's a superstar salesperson!

We would love to refer Vic and Barfoot & Thompson to our friends and family in the future.

Kind regards
