Lower Hutt Properties

“We would like to express our appreciation for all of your hard work that has gone into selling our property. You have done an excellent job in marketing our property and your professional attitude makes us very confident you can make things happen. We definitely will recommend you to our friends and family who would like to sell their properties, as you are the best sales agent that we have dealt with.

I would like to take this opportunity to thank Barry Moodie my real estate agent for doing an awesome job to get the right client for my property on the North Shore. Barry was able to sell our property quickly for a price that was acceptable to us. He always kept us informed. He is efficient, professional, helpful and a pleasure to deal with. I wish him well and many sales in the future.

It was our good fortune to be introduced to Barry Moodie at Harcourts regarding the recent sale of our property in Milford. We were most impressed with his personal approach not only with presenting us with a comprehensive picture of recent local real estate values but also affording us advice on various marketing options. Throughout the weeks leading up to the auction we were informed of all progress and interest in the property and feel the result of such a successful sale can only be attributed to his outstanding commitment and management. We would have no hesitation in recommending Barry for any situation requiring such a high degree of professionalism.

Hi Barry, Marianne and I would like to thank you most sincerely for your great efforts in selling our house. We were most impressed with the way you handled everything right down to the finest detail and kept us fully informed of interest etc on a daily basis.We were also very happy with the buyers you found for us who we know will enjoy our property. Your advice to us about going to auction rather than by negotiation certainly was the best choice and we were delighted with the price obtained. We will certainly have no hesitation in recommending you to any friends who may be thinking of buying or selling their property and wish you all the very best for a successful future. Best wishes and kind regards Doug & Marianne Cooper

To whom it may concern: We first met Barry Moodie when he approached us to see if we were interested in selling our home. At the time, the timing was not right, however we kept in touch and a year or so later we decided Barry was the right person for the sale of our property. Barry worked incredibly hard with our house. He was well organized and came with a plan that suited our timeline. Barry was easy to communicate with and no request was left unanswered. All through the process, one thing that stood out was Barry’s dedication to getting the best result for us. The open homes were effective and Barry did exceptionally well to get high numbers through. He looked outside the box for buyers and found interested parties ensuring they viewed our property. Due to this high interest, we were able to bring forward our auction and get a result we were very happy with. Barry made this process stress free, tidy and got the sale done quickly. We would happily recommend Barry Moodie for selling your home. Yours Sincerely David and Eva Nash

We were fortunate to recently have Barry Moodie market our rental property for us in Milford. After approaching several other real estate agents in the area to market our property, we settled on Harcourts and Barry Moodie. Other agents in the area had suggested that the best marketing for the property would be a fixed price, but Barry convinced us that with the volatility of the market at present, the best option for setting the price would be at auction. Having never had any experience with buying or selling at auction, we settled on this with some trepidation.We needn't have worried! Barry set about marketing the house immediately and advised us about the best way to present the property.He held open homes each week end and also during mid week in the evening. Throughout the marketing process, he kept us well informed about the feedback he was receiving from potential buyers and the interest in the property. The property successfully sold on the day of the auction,at a price that exceeded the suggested marketing price of other agents who had wanted to market it.We believe this was due to Barry and Stephen's(the auctioneer)expertise. Following the sale, Barry continued to be involved in making sure that the correct documents and processes were in place to conclude the settlement.All in all, we found Barry and Harcourts Milford to be very professional, committed and easy to deal with.We would have no hesitation at all in recommending him to anyone who is contemplating selling a property, and would be very happy to use his services again in the future. Mandy & John Pye Thanks again Kind regards Mandy Pye

Hi Barry things have finally settled down a little (very little) so I just wanted to say “Thanks”. You made the whole process of selling our home much easier – from the initial consultation in which you went through all the information very thoroughly – to the “pre-Auction offer & then the Auction, everything was very clear and easy to follow. I think you are very organised and that was very evident with the “Open Homes” – lights and TV’s were turned on to make sure the home was presented beautifully. Thanks also for your continued assistance in finding a replacement project for us. Regards John Mills & Michelle Borlase

"We interviewed people from three agencies, all of whom were very keen to act on our behalf. We chose Barry as he impressed us from the start. He arrived prepared with a visual timetable guide outlining marketing of our house, advertising dates, timeline for suggested open homes, viewings and auction date all personalised for our property after one telephone conversation and unpacked with us during a follow up visit and viewing of the house. Barry's communication and organisational skills were a strength throughout the campaign. The marketing of the property was organised and successful. We were kept well-informed throughout, even during the three and a half weeks we were travelling overseas. Barry sent us regular email updates to follow up on viewings and open home feedback from potential buyers. The auction went without a hitch and we were extremely pleased with the result".

Hi Barry We would like to say a big thank you to you for your guidance and professionalism in selling our house in record time. We would not hesitate in recommending you to other people who are selling their home. Best Wishes Margaret & Laurie

David and I wish to thank Barry Moodie for his commitment to finding the right property for us and we have no hesitation in recommending him to anyone involved in selling or purchasing property. Barry listened carefully and understood what we had in mind and the kind of property we were looking for. Barry kept us informed of what was happening in the marketplace with both a local and sub-regional understanding. He was also able to keep us up to date with what was coming to market which proved a great help, saving us valuable time and energy. Barry continued to support us through the auction and purchasing process providing both professional and sound practical advice that enabled us to purchase without any hesitation. We enjoyed working with Barry and will be quick to contact him again when we enter the property market. Claire and David Siddens – Mt Eden

I was very impressed with Barry Moodie right from the start. I would 100% recommend Barry as he was INCREDIBLE and thoroughly professional. Very hard working. There were some tricky aspects to the overall situation and he managed everything very well. He is very good at liaising, managing relationships, communicating. I had total confidence in his approach and follow through. He was very consistent in his manner and I found him honest and transparent. I definitely felt he was working for me which is often not what sellers feel. He also went more than the extra mile. 5 out 5 rating!

Hi Barry. I would like to say thank you for a very friendly, professional approach you showed on reaching above the market price for selling my sons property. I would have no hesitation to recommend you and Hardcourts to anyone looking to sell.Best of luck on future sales. Regards Mike and Rob Smith

We found Barry an absolute delight to work with. A breath of fresh air. Nothing was too much trouble. He delivered information in a concise and succinct manner after each open home. Ours was not an easy property to sell by any means, but sell it he did!! We would highly recommend his services to anyone who is serious about selling their property, because he will sell it! Thanks very much Barry
