Well done Sarah and Julie for selling my unit in Sandringham. All your hard work, advice and support has been greatly appreciated. Thanks for home staging my unit and updating me regularly. I was so thrilled when the result exceeded my expectation. Well done ladies.

There is nothing cookie cutter about the way Sarah and Julie go about their role as real estate agents. From the outset, they were excellent communicators. They are genuine, professional, and warm, and their work ethic second to none. We were so grateful for all that they did from advising us on what to do to get our property market ready to an individualised marketing plan. Nothing was ever a problem. We were always kept in the loop with regular updates and given every opportunity to chat about where we were at with the campaign. We always felt confident that Sarah and Julie were committed to the best outcome for us. Selling your home can be extremely stressful but it was made easy with Sarah and Julie at the helm!

If you are looking to buy or sell Sarah and Julie will get you there. Strong knowledge, helpful hints and a few laughs along the way. Lots of support through it all and a great result. Highly recommend them.

I cant speak highly enough of Team Sarah and Julie. They sold two houses for us in Mt Eden, managing a complex sales process with utmost professionalism and integrity. The result far and away exceeded our wildest expectations plus, not a single nights sleep lost to worry. I would recommend Sarah and Julie without hesitation if you are looking for agents that genuinely care and deliver brilliant outcomes.

Highly recommend Sarah & Julie – Always go above and beyond for their clients. Relationship based and extremely valuable
Paora Porter

We have used Sarah and Julie for many years now to buy and sell all our investment properties. They are the BEST! We had some “unsellable” apartments that we thought would never sell — or if they did, we’d have to take a bath on price. But Sarah and JK are so committed to the vendor and doing what is right for their client that they worked their socks off to get us buyers for a great price. They work tirelessly and well above and beyond what you’d expect of a regular agent; but what I love the most is their honesty; something that generally isn’t abundant in the real estate industry. I highly recommend them.
Emma Conyngham

The property that I was selling was very unique. It fulfilled very specific high value requirements that were hard to communicate in an ad – a city apartment with a lot of features you would normally only find in a house. That also meant finding a special type of buyer. Sarah and Julie formulated a tailored digital campaign and came back with a multi-bid offer once the right buyers were found.
I changed estate agents as I came to the conclusion that Sarah and Julie understood that different homes fulfilled very different needs. Their extensive network of connections really helped get the right price and conditions for the apartment I was selling.

Commitment and enthusiasm of team.

Selling your house? Sarah & JK are the team!
It is my pleasure to provide a testimonial for Sarah & Julie Harcourts Real Estate.
My experience was nothing but positive, Sarah and Julie where absolute professionals.
Not only did they sell my house, they provided me with assistance in buying my new home through another agent.
You guys rock, hope 2017 is awesome for you both

Sarah & JK sold our property in One Tree Hill, Auckland and we wanted to say thank you for doing such an awesome job!!! They produced an effective marketing campaign and communicated clearly with us from start to finish. They also dressed our place for sale and it looked amazing. Within a week and a half of it going on the market we had sold our place for way more than we were expecting! Sarah & JK are a “dream team” and we would highly recommend them to anyone and use them again in the future! Thanks again so much for getting us such a great result for our place
Matty Bruns

Paul Left

Hands down the most fab ladies to work with. Great with detail, fantastic communication and a wealth of experience. I’d highly recommend listing your property with Julie and Sarah, your property (and the outcome!) will be in good hands!

Philippa Lewis

Sarah and Julie are fabulous. They have sold two properties for me now, all went to multi-offers and achieved what we were looking for.

The first sale was special, as they were selling our first home and were able to find a first time buyer, like we wanted. They were considerate and compassionate toward the buyer and gave us the help we needed, optimising staging etc. Both worked as a great team, with Sarah handling the marketing and energy, and Julie looking after the fine details and building buyer empathy.

The second sale was more targeted as it was for a high end apartment with all of the features of a much larger home. They optimised digital advertising to reach the right audience and put in the extra time required.

I cannot recommend them enough, either to sell your house with or buy it through, which is a very unique ability.

Nicola Hoogenboom

Sarah and Julie are central Auckland real estate agents that you can actually TRUST! They will offer you sound advice about what is best for you when considering selling and not just try and ‘list you’. They actually care about you about getting you a process you are comfortable with and a result that is amazing! They are committed, hardworking and I would highly recommend them if you want to work with people that are genuine and will tell it like it is. It is absolutely no surprise that they have won numerous awards for outstanding performance and customer service, because they put PEOPLE FIRST.
Anna Senio

Two professional, personable, well-experienced agents who are passionate about their clients and achieving excellent outcomes and results for them. Strong communicators with high touch and an ability to understand the person, their circumstances and tailor the process to suit them and their property.
Stephen McFarland

Sarah and Julie were amazing to work with!
Selling your family home can be really stressful but they guided us through the whole process and made it seem more manageable.
They provided advice on how to get our house ready for sale, great marketing suggestions and they managed to get a large number of buyers through the open homes which all resulted in a very exciting auction!
They were really professional, trustworthy and passionate about what they do. We would highly recommend them to anyone.
Jarrod Darlington

Such a pleasure to deal with Sarah and Julie while selling my grandparents house. Not only did they sell the house within a few weeks of being on the market, they also made sure my grandparents were very comfortable with each step of the process. Cannot recommend them highly enough, they truly go above and beyond for their clients.
Georgina Schwalger

Sarah and Julie are an exceptional team. The prospect of selling our home was daunting, but from the first time we met them they put us at ease. They had clearly done their homework and were knowledgeable about both our property and the current market. They gave us savvy advice as to how to prepare our house for sale and then developed a thoughtful and comprehensive marketing plan. They supported us every step of the way and we felt they had our best interests at heart. All this led to a great result on auction day. Highly recommended!
Susan Mahoney

We have used Sarah and JK to sell two properties and buy one: we wouldn’t go anywhere else now. These two are not “salespeople”. There are no used cars in sight. They are genuine, intuitive women who have an uncanny knack for getting the best for a vendor AND a buyer. There is no cloak and dagger, or smoke and mirrors; just clear talk with actual sincerity and hard work; which is so rare in a cut-throat industry that is usually driven by profit, profit and more profit.
Both of our sales were at a time of huge personal upheaval (nothing to do with property) so that selling was a massive emotional ‘event.’ Sarah and JK had grace, integrity and intuition that set them head and shoulders above the rest.
We highly recommend them.
Emma Sutcliffe

Sarah and Julie are a great team and have done a highly professional and fantastic job of selling our property in double-quick time. They were great to work with, because they understood where we were coming from and listened to our perspective. Their marketing campaign was targeted to the strengths of the property; the photos were great and they had a list of potential buyers to contact. They are both excellent communicators and I highly recommend them to all buyers and sellers.

Caroline Malthus

Sarah and Julie sold our property for us and were amazing to deal with. They gave us great advice and help with staging the property to make it look gorgeous which I’m sure made a big difference to the sale. They were straight up and friendly, we sold for more than we had ever expected to and they really worked with us and how we wanted to go through the process. We found them really ethical, great at communicating and just lovely to deal with – highly recommend!!!

Rachel Burns

I have dealt with them over many years and strongly recommend Sarah and Julie. They are well experienced, knowledgeable and deliver results consistently.
Las Akrurgoda

We needed someone to sell our multi-million dollar property and the campaign that Sarah and Julie coordinated and produced resulted in a quick and high priced sale, both are very professional and experienced that provided for us total confidence in what they were doing. Looking forward to our next sale with these real estate stars.
Alistair Niven

We used Sarah & Julie to sell our upmarket luxury apartment in Ponsonby and despite other agents telling us we wouldn’t get more than $X for it, the exceptional skills and foresight they applied to its marketing and negotiations saw us exceed that aforementioned price by about $150,000! So a tremendous outcome due to their exceptional marketing skills firstly, then their negotiating talents. Customer care is their absolute focus
Keith Ward

Sarah and Julie are fantastic, I wouldn’t sell my house with anyone else. They care about everyone involved in the process and understand that buying and selling a house is about people and homes, not just property and assets.
Nicola Maree Hoogenboom

My family and I had the privilege to use Sarah and Julie to sell our little home. They definitely made our little home come alive. They made the process in selling so simple and easy and made us feel supported along the way. No question was a dumb one even tho I asked a few haha.
Julie not only went above and beyond to help us into our new house.
I would definitely recommend these beautiful women to all my nearest and dearest family and friends…..

Areta Faifua

These ladies are lovely and they know their stuff! But they take the time to look after people that is what makes them amazing!
Helen Stuart

Huge shout out to Sarah Tiplady and Julie Kelman-poto, I truly cannot speak highly enough of these ladies, they have guided my family through a “long process” of selling our homes and securing our new joint homes. Many others, I feel, may have given up on us but not Sarah and Julie, with their on going advice and unrelenting support we have made it. They are part of the family now. If you are thinking of selling or just want an appraisal you will not be disappointed with what they bring to the table.
