Steve Isbill

To Whom It May Concern: This testimonial is to recommend Steve Isbill in the first instance and secondly to recommend selling by ‘Set Date of Sale’. My husband and I have been in the selling and buying property market for well over 20 years. This has been the most enjoyable process we have ever experienced. We met Steve who was recommended to us by our son and his wife who had brought through Steve. From the moment we met and sat down with him his strategy for selling our house resonated strongly with us. We heeded Steve’s advice from the smallest detail through to the end and the advice paid off for us. Steve is a person of integrity; he is a true gentleman and is a man of his word. His advice to us especially on the presentation of our home and using a professional photographer to market the house was worth the extra effort.. We were extremely impressed with the photo presentation of our home, which Steve personally took upon himself to oversee with the photographer. We basically signed with Steve, handed the keys and the sale of the house over to him and from that moment on he took care of everything, we did not have to worry about anything. He even tied the dog up one day for me. We sold our house with Steve through the ‘Set Date of Sale’ within one week. We had a range of offers to choose from and were in a position where we could choose the best offer at our leisure as opposed to being under pressure at an Auction. I would thoroughly recommend this way of selling having been through the Auction process of sale before. I have no hesitation in recommending Steve to anyone be it buyer or seller. Well done Steve!

To whom it may concern I recently purchased a property in Kereru St Henderson through another Auckland real estate agency with the express purpose of renovating the home and on selling it. My objective was to find an agent who was familiar with the area, it’s present values and was passionate about selling real estate. At that point in time I had no idea who Steve Isbill was. Having narrowed it down to four possible contenders to on-sell the property, on interviewing them all, Steve stood out head and shoulders above the rest, suggesting a marketing plan using the “set date of sale method”. To be honest, the results he was quoting [from his recent sales using this method] sounded almost too good to be true, but after considering the potential benefits I decided to run with it. Well, within seven days of marketing the property we had five multi-offers presented to us, with one in particular being substantially higher than the rest which was more than acceptable to us. What more could you ask for........ but wait there’s more! Forty five minutes before our deal was due to go unconditional [and it was almost guaranteed it would], Steve arrived with yet another substantial back up offer just in case it was required. The results Steve achieved spoke for themselves. I would highly recommend this form of marketing to anyone considering selling their property through Steve and the team at Harvey’s office Te Atatu peninsula. To confirm the above success story I recently learned this particular branch of Harveys is the top performing office in the country which I think is largely attributed to this form of marketing, and also having the right people on the team such as Steve. Steve did all, and more than he said he would, keeping us informed at all times, on all aspects of the sale process, a rare commodity in today’s business world. I have no hesitation recommending Steve and the “set date of sale” method in the present market. David Edmonds Director Hatteras Developments Ltd.

To Whom It May Concern Selling houses can be is stressful! However, selling mine was made easy thanks to Steve Isbill. I originally thought about trying to sell it myself and Steve took me through all the reasons why he could get a better result. He was right Steve was proactive, efficient, genuinely friendly and maintained excellent communication throughout the sale process. He offered great advice on preparing my property for sale even going the extra mile to refer us to great trade’s people. Steve’s attention to the little things shows he is a true professional, from arranging rooms for photos to “rolling his sleeves up” and helping in the garden, he completely exceeded my expectations. I absolutely would recommend Steve for selling your house and found his sales process to be faultless, I was especially blown away by the photos of our property and I personally had 3 offers in the first week, one of which was $35,000.00 above C.V. After the sale Steve kept in contact making sure every detail was wrapped up and that we were happy with the result. I wouldn’t hesitate to use Steve again for any house I may sell in the future.
