David Davidson and Pip Woodhouse-Shea of One Agency recently appraised and marketed my parents’ family home (37 Luculia Drive, Bayfair). David and Pip provided expert advice in what we needed to do to get the property ready for market. We followed their advice and once listed Pip and David gave my brother and I weekly updates and feedback from each open home. It was a very stressful sale time with a market that was difficult at best, but Pip and David continued over several weeks working with all parties best interests to achieve an outstanding result within the price bracket which I was hoping for and can’t thank them enough for helping us navigate a difficult time with the best outcome, not only navigating the seller/buyer relationship but also working with ease communicating between family members to assist us in achieving our sale at such a challenging time.

Pip and David marketed and sold our home this year. We knew from the beginning we were selling in a very tight market, but all the communication we had with Pip and David from the get go was pure positiveness! We were kept up to date weekly, if not daily, throughout the whole process, and we always knew where we stood in terms of potential buyer feedback and market information.
When the offers came in our agents were all over it. We could tell this was far from their first rodeo, they were relentless in ensuring people were kept informed, and really facilitated a timely result for all parties.
Overall we feel we were listened to and were absolutely part of a wonderful partnership throughout the selling process. Pip and David offer a very personalised and professional service and we recommend them highly to anyone considering selling their property’.

To Whom It May Concern
My partner and I have engaged David Davidson and Pip Woodhouse-Shea to market properties for us on three occasions in the last 18 months. The main reason we asked Pip and David to market properties on three separate occasions is from our first experience we found them excellent agents who worked hard to achieve a successful outcome for us.
We always found David and Pip to be professional, good communicators and committed to achieving positive outcomes for us as vendors - whilst also seeming to ensure the purchasers have also had a positive experience and outcome. They have also demonstrated respect for our wishes in the marketing process – such that it felt like we were part of a team marketing effort.
I would not hesitate to recommend Pip and David to anyone looking to market their property.

David and Pip have recently sold three homes for us in a span of just over 18 months with the last in October of this year. Whilst navigating the rollercoaster of emotions and complexity of dealing with two subsequent estates, and then our own home, I have nothing but praise for the communication, support and professionalism from both Pip and David over this time. They had our trust and confidence, were outstanding communicators and at all times totally professional. We made clear and concise decisions with what we wanted and were more than pleased in each instance with the results that Pip and David achieved. Pip and David are a small agency compared to many others out there, but that gives them the advantage of a more personal and targeted approach which led them to put together a comprehensive appraisal and plan which was well researched and delivered in each instance. It is a pleasure to write this testimonial, as David and Pip have gone above and beyond and not only met our expectations, but exceeded them, not only once but three times, so I can highly recommend their services if you are looking to sell your home.

We would like to thank Pip & David for the amazing job they did of selling our Gate Pa, Tauranga property. We met them at an open home we visited & decided then and there when it came time to put our house on the market
they were the ones that we wanted to handle the sale. We were not disappointed, the sale process was quick and simple we put that down to their knowledge & professionalism. they were super easy to get along with.
Once again thank you Pip & David.

Selling your long-time family home is a very emotional time and we found Pip and Dave to be very mindful of the journey we were on. They supported us at every stage of the process and kept pace with where we were at on a personal level but still showed amazing professionalism in keeping us aligned with their plan for our sale. It’s the little things that count and Pip and Dave were so adept at picking up on these and steering us in the right direction so we could get the best result possible. Their negotiating skills were put to the test, and well and truly passed, by getting a final sale price which exceeded our own expectations. We are so grateful to them both for the effort they put in on our behalf and fully recommend them to anyone who is looking for a professional yet very personable couple to take on the challenge of selling their biggest asset – in fact we already have! Thank you Pip and Dave for making the whole experience less daunting for us and for always having our best interests at the very centre of everything you did. xx Ev and Danny

Pip and David exemplify what a good agent should be, their attention to detail, compassionate and professional approach made selling our home much less stressful than previous transactions, throughout the process they communicated quickly and frequently with us so we felt in the loop, their knowledge and skills, underpinned by an obvious enthusiasm for doing their best for us reassured us even when there was difficulties. We would heartily recommend team Pip and David to anyone wanting a top notch service, they are great ambassadors for the Real Estate profession.

Pip and Dave are the dream team! Together they handled our listing with the integrity and professionalism that ensured the vendor process went as smoothly as possible.
With backgrounds in marketing and sales the two of them they had every base covered and were able to advise us on our options, as each stage of the sale progressed. They genuinely care and were a lot of fun to work with, but most importantly, together we were able to achieve a successful sale!

Choosing Pip and David as agents to sell our home was the best decision we could have made. At each step PIp and David were able to provide the objective perspective that we needed. This was important to us because the entire process can seem overwhelming and emotional. After all, our house was not just a building to us but our home. Pip and David were on top of all the details and deadlines and we were able to rely on them to keep everything on track. We appreciated their realistic approach and did not ever feel pressured in any way. Answers to any questions or concerns were just one phone call or text away and they gave immediate feedback to us about comments prospective buyers were making. We always felt like we were in the loop. We liked the way Pip and David sat with us at the beginning to carefully plan a schedule for open homes that both highlighted our home well and also fit with our busy schedules. We gave them permission to be straight with us about things we could do to present our house in a way that would appeal to buyers. Freshening up our entryway and letting more light into our lounge were easy fixes but made a huge impact. Most importantly, they sold our house for a good price and in good time! We would highly recommend Pip and David to anyone selling...

When it came time to sell our home we immediately thought of Pip who had sold our previous home. We were so pleased then, and even more so with the partnership of Pip and David, if that is possible. A very professional couple, so delightful and friendly, very easy to be with and we thank them for that.
All procedures for sale and auction were fully explained in a manner we could understand, and we were well supported all the way through. For us, being an older couple, their cheerful natures and encouragement has been very much appreciated.
Their dedication to the business of selling our home and their delightful manner helped us through any worries we may have had.
A very big thank you to Pip and David. You will definitely have a very BIG 5 STAR from us. Higher if that was available.
Regards, Adrienne and John de Faye
