Testimonials

Brett & Lyn Sawyers did a fantastic job selling our home. We knew we would be out of the country for the duration of the sale period so we needed to find real estate agents with a formidable track record who we could trust completely in our absence. We made the right choice. Brett went above and beyond and did not miss one open home. Brett & Lyn were open, communicative, and receptive to making changes to the listing as the market shifted. I would recommend Brett & Lyn without reservation to anyone who needs to sell their home in the Whangarei area.
D & R -
Not having used [the company] before, my wife and I were initially a little apprehensive at first but soon realised that Brett & Lyn Sawyers were very competent and knowledgeable which (plus their friendliness and efficient service) made the whole experience of selling two of our properties in quick time, very stress-free – much appreciated by two thankful geriatrics.
Paul and Di -
We invited 3 agencies to put their proposition to us when we decided to sell our home, all people we knew or had met and felt could do a worthwhile job for us. From these 3 we chose Brett and Lyn to work for us. At no time did we regret this decision, either during the sale or after reaching a sale decision. They were for ever in contact with us with updates and suggestions, and the result was a sale at a price we agreed that was acceptable and within a fair time frame. We are both happy to recommend Brett and Lyn to future prospective property owners to deal with you as a team who would handle your sale in both a friendly and professional manner and to expect a good result.
Don & Gill -
We contracted Brett & Lyn Sawyers to market and sell 3 homes we owned and had on the market for some time and had been unsuccessful in moving them. Brett & Lyn first came up with a plan to market them differently that we had experienced before. The new approach was to directly target the Auckland clients so they could easily view the properties – They felt that reaching the Auckland market was key and saw them as a strong target market.
Dean McGonagle
Brett & Lynn ran weekend open homes and the marketing that went with driving this form of marketing. We found that the communication was of the highest quality and the emailed diary and statistics on Monday morning were very informative and made us feel we were in very professional hands.
In the end, results speak for themselves and The Brett & Lyn Sawyers Team produced the results we were looking for. All 3 homes sold within a timeframe that met our expectations and considering the difficult market Northland had drifted into the result was even more professional and pleasing to us.
I would, and have recommended potential clients to follow in our path of contracting Brett & Lyn Sawyers to market and sell their homes – referral business is something I don’t take lightly but I can say without hesitation that I trust both of them with the systems and processes they have put into place. These will return them and their clients a consistent return of results.
I am more than happy to be contacted to answer any questions. -

We recently had the pleasure of working with Brett and Lynn as my agents for a property purchase. We loved their warm and friendly demeanor, which made me feel instantly comfortable and reassured. Throughout the entire buying process, Brett and Lynn were incredibly knowledgeable and experienced, providing us with valuable insights and guidance every step of the way. They were always available to answer any questions and went out of their way to make sure we felt safe and cared for during what can often be a stressful experience. What impressed us most about Brett and Lynn was the transparency they brought to the auction process. As a buyer, it can be difficult to navigate the sometimes murky waters of a property auction, but Brett and Lynn made it clear, open, and honest. They provided us with all the information we needed to make informed decisions. We would highly recommend Brett and Lynn to anyone looking for experienced, knowledgeable agents who truly care about their clients

I have known Brett Sawyers for about 20 years, both socially and professionally. I have always been impressed by his energy, strategic thinking, and common sense approach. For the recent sale, his professionalism, supported by his wife, Lyn Sawyers, was first class. The selling options were set out and discussed, the advice and guidance was clear, and they both did exactly what they said they would do. The online advertising was extremely comprehensive. The signage was appropriate. The open days were thorough, followed up with prompt reporting. At all times we were kept informed, and had access for further guidance if required. The sale process was successful and flawless from our point of view. We are very impressed and grateful for the assistance. We have no hesitation recommending Brett and Lyn to everybody else. Regards, Ian Reeves and Kim Wilkinson

We will definitely use their services and expertise again and recommend to family and friends to contact them should they need hardworking, trustworthy real estate agents themselves.

I appointed Brett and Lyn Sawyers in November 2023 to list and sell my above property. I didn’t know them personally. However, from our first meeting and throughout the duration of the above they provided top service and an extremely high level of personal efficiency. I felt completely confident I’d engaged a team who were thorough, great communicators, compassionate and who had a natural rapport with people. At our first meeting Brett and I sat down to go through the Sale process step by step. He gave me printed material and top advice as to how to undertake the preparation and outlining what was required for marketing presentation. He went through every detail with enthusiasm and with his 20 years’ experience in the industry, covered both the major requirements to meet the market along with the minor work needed to complete this task. During this stage and before I’d sold, I found an urban house property (an opposition firm’s listing), I wanted to purchase and with no experience whatsoever buying at Auction, Brett offered to accompany me for both support and be my agent despite there being no financial gain in it for him. He consulted me on every aspect of the transaction ensuring I was prepared both mentally and financially and during the auction liaised, consulted, negotiated and strategised. We were successful. I now live in the property purchased. Brett deals with the ‘little matters’ in a way which doesn’t make you feel either ignorant or incompetent and with a natural enthusiasm for all things property, achieves. He follows up on every aspect of a transaction, explains clearly and gives good guidance and advice. His personality plays a big part in his successes to the point where you feel you are the only seller he’s dealing with. And there’s compassion thrown in. He checks to see how you are ‘trucking’ knowing the stresses involved in major property transactions. He arranged for the Ray White photographer to take the sale property photos which included dron
