Testimonials

Here's what some recent clients had to say about Yolande King's real estate service. For Mount Maunganui property, Choose Yolande King. Choose EVES.

 

Thank you to team King Pat, Yolande & Tara for selling our property in Papamoa Beach. Your professionalism, courtesy, advice and honesty were first class, you kept us informed every step of the way.

We were delighted with the way our property was presented to the market which clearly attracted the right buyers and resulted in a sale at Auction. The Open Homes were well managed and the feedback we received from potential buyers was thorough & consistent. We received a high level of service at all times thus ensuring that the sale proceeded as smoothly as possible.

We were particularly impressed with great communication between yourselves & fellow Eves agents who presented our property to potential buyers outside of the open home viewings. Notification was always well organised with swift feedback after each viewing.

We would happily recommend to anyone wanting to sell their property in the Bay.

Hello Pat and Yolande

As you know, you came highly recommended to us from a close family member. It would be the best advice that we could have taken.
The whole time you kept us fully up to date, especially since one of us resides overseas. You have listened to us, and without pressure, guided us through the whole experience.

Thank you for your excellent Marketing Plan and your commitment to getting the result we achieved. I would recommend Pat to anyone buying or selling their home.

Well done and thank you both.

Sandy Bowers and Janet Kingsford

 

Pat was recommended by several people before we choose to use him as our agent, and I would recommend him again. Being both organised and professional as well as relaxed and totally approachable made Pat a pleasure to deal with. The buyers even commented to us what a nice agent he was.

Philippa and Ben

 

Damon & I would like to thank Pat & Yolande for selling our house.
Pat was committed, very professional and easy to deal with. Excellent communication and Pat went the extra mile to assist us with the land we wanted to purchase. We really appreciated this.
We were very happy with the outcome from the sale of our home and we would certainly not hesitate in recommending Pat & Yolande in the future.
Thanks again.

When I sold my property at Mount Maunganui recently, Pat King was my agent. I found him to be very professional, helpful and honest. He communicated well with me, keeping me informed of progress and giving me regular feedback from open homes. I have pleasure in recommending Pat as a Real Estate agent.

Bev Kirk, Katikati

 

Hello Pat and Yolande
Just wanted to thank you so much for the great work you did selling our home at 350 Ocean beach Road.
You helped us understand the local market place and greatly assisted with structuring an advertising campaign to keep our property top-of-mind. This factor, I believe, turned out to be to be the catalyst that delivered the perfect purchaser.
Your professionalism and generous attendance at the weekly open homes created the urgency that ensured our purchaser made a fair and immediate decision. I look forward to you helping us again when the opportunity arises.
Top marks.

We would like to express our sincere appreciation to Yolande and Pat for the way in which they handled the selling of our holiday apartment at Mt Maunganui.
We live in Auckland and the thought of selling from a distance seemed overwhelming. However, we need not have had any concerns, from the moment we decided to sell, having discussed with Yolande various options available, we left the selling process in their very capable hands.
From advertising, open homes and the auction, they took control. They consulted with us at every step ensuring we not only understood the process, but were happy with what was taking place, giving us feedback on a regular basis from their meetings and open homes. We always felt Yolande and Pat were working for us.
Both Yolande and Pat were happy to answer any questions we put to them. Due to their commitment and professionalism our property sold in a matter of weeks. Our thanks to you both.

Val and John Fullard, Auckland

 

Pat and Yolande King were nothing short of outstanding in their efforts to source a new home for us, negotiate a fair purchase price and guide us throughout the whole process. The gift from them at the end was somewhat embarrassing, as we should have been the ones saying thanks with a gift.
We have no hesitation in recommending Pat and Yolande to sellers and purchasers. They are totally honest, reliable, not the slightest bit 'pushy' and just so nice to deal with.

Brent and Tracey Bourgeois, Mt Maunganui

 

My wife and I have sold a number of apartments through Pat King and Yolande and I would not go anywhere else. What can I say - they have a very high degree of professionalism in their field - had a very good rapport with tenants during the marketing phase, kept us informed during all stages of the sales process and both are a great young couple to work with. In the current environment selling property can be hard work but they both showed the commitment necessary to achieve an outcome that was close to expectation.
Well done and thank you both.

Geoff Mathis

 

What a nice guy Pat King is. Always polite, down-to-earth, reliable and did what he said, making selling our house a pleasure. I would recommend Pat to anyone buying or selling their home.

Malcolm Hogg

 

Right from the onset/first time we met both Pat and Yolande we felt at ease. They both listened carefully and gave us the time we needed - with no pressure or commitment required. We have taken our time in purchasing a property due to many personal reasons and have probably let a few opportunities pass us by, but Pat and Yolande never let that bother them, they were patient and forgiving! We believe that the help we received, impartial advice and patience we were shown is second to none. Thanks Pat and Yolande.

59C Concord Ave

 

Dear Yolande, Thank you so much for your dedication and commitment in your efforts to sell our home. I had my home overpriced (because it means so much to me) and the market was very flat and getting worse by the day. You did not give up and achieved the desired result - that SOLD sign we were hanging out to see. Thank you again. I will recommend you highly to my friends if needed.

279 Range Road

 

Peter and I found Pat King extremely helpful and knowledgeable. Pat's guidance as to how and when to market our property was much appreciated. As we don't live at the Mount, Pat was our eyes and ears there and we quickly built up a high level of trust with Pat. We were both pleased and surprised that Pat did everything he said he would and in the timeframe he said he would.

Peter and Lynne Hemsley

 

We mainly dealt with Pat and have found him friendly, honest, patient, timely, and easy to deal with. Any requests we made of him were always completed quickly and without us feeling like we were of a burden to him. He always responded quickly to phone calls, emails and texts. His feedback from potential purchasers was always done quickly and left us knowing where things were at, whether it was what we wanted to hear or not. In the end Pat secured a sale for us which was in line with the pricing expectations he had initially discussed with us. He also took the time to take us to various houses to view to buy and helped us secure our new house. In our dealings with Yolande, she was always very friendly and interested in our property, and we were left with the feeling that she was completely up to speed with the sale process even though Pat was primarily dealing with it. We would have no hesitation in recommending Pat and Yolande to anyone.

Gavin Goodjohn and Catherine Morley

 

Both buying and selling was made easy by working with Pat and Yolande King. They knew we were considering selling, but we weren't even on the market when they approached us with a buyer that they knew was a good match for our home. After selling they helped us find our next home in quick time what was exactly what we were after. They were incredibly helpful throughout the whole process, which went seamlessly and couldn't have been easier. I recommend them highly

We were both pleased and surprise that Pat did everything he said he would an in the time frame he said he would. This is our third property we have sold in the last 12 months & this was not the experience with the other properties.

Peter & Lynne Hemsley (March 2013)

 

We were referred to Pat Z& Yolande King, we found them extremely professional and great communicators. We set them the task to find potential investment properties to add to our portfolio. They were attentive to our needs and provided us with some excellent investment opportunities. We successfully purchased three good investments, thanks to the effort and support from both of them. We will continue working with them in the future.

Mt Mauao Investments Limited (January 2013)

 

When I sold my property at Mount Maunganui recently, Pat King was my agent. I found him to be very professional, helpful and honest. He communicated well with me, keeping me informed of progress and giving me regular feedback from open homes. I have pleasure in recommending Pat.

Bev Kirk (January 2013)

 

We recently bought a property at Auction which Pat King was marketing. Even though we have had experience in the industry we still required a salesperson to represent us with the buying process.
Pat ticked all the box's we required including supplying us with all necessary documentation to allow us to bid. He had a sound knowledge of the area and was able to answer all our concerns. He was professional with his dealings both before and after the auction process. We have no hesitation in recommending him as your Salesperson.

Jan Wilson and Robert Skelton (December 2012)

 

Our family were all involved in the decision making regarding an agent. We all agreed on Patrick and what a good choice we made. He kept us informed regularly and professionally throughout the marketing period. He stood with us through the auction and we were delighted with the outcome. We would certainly refer Patrick to our friends and colleagues.

Iris and Garth Hewetson (December 2012)

 

We were so pleased we chose Pat & Yolande to market & sell our property. We appreciated their enthusiasm & nothing is too hard attitude as different problems arose. They work so well as a team & kept us up to date on all the activity. We have no hesitation in highly recommending them.

J Ritchie

 

We would like to commend pat and Yolande on their dedication to their clients. It isn't always easy to sell your home, particularly in this market, but they kept the faith. Pat worked mainly on our sale, and he was dedicated, always sending back feedback quickly and made the whole stressful time, so much easier.
A huge thank you from us.

Raewyne & Harry Tawa (August 2012)

 

Dear Yolande,

Thank you for marketing and selling our property. Both Ann and myself appreciate your friendly and professional manner and the extra effort we know you put into the selling of our home of 33 years. I particularly liked the home and gardens. Thank you and the Eves team for your assistance to a successful sale.

Yours faithfully

Ann and Calvin Law

 

Her incredible professionalism and expertise meant that we could narrow down what we wanted quickly - she just got it - and her approachability enabled us to gain access to properties that met our requirements in a very short time frame.

She kept us informed of options at all times and it is because of her efforts that we got the house at the top of our list - which is now proudly our family home.

When it came to selling our parents home we wanted an agent that would tell us the reality of the market situation vs trying to get the listing - so we went to Pat and Yolande. Having purchased our house through them and seeing how hard they work for their clients we knew they would help us through the process. Whilst the area wasn't within their direct selling territory - they introduced us to John Rose who was just great - and they kept across things at all time - even coming to the auction.

If you want an agent that does what they say they will with a refreshing level of integrity and professionalism we couldn't recommend Pat and Yolande more highly. Thank you.
