Family Home in Heart of Rangitotito School Zone
Alden and Ruth, relocating from Singapore to Auckland for better school options, needed a spacious family home in the highly sought-after Rangitoto School zone. With fierce competition, limited listings, and the challenge of buying remotely, they faced an uphill battle-especially with their $1.5 million budget and strict requirements for safety, space, and a secure garden.
Partnering with Martelli Buyers Agents, we previewed properties, flagged issues like poor maintenance and flood risk, and provided up-to-date market insights and comparable sales data. When the perfect home hit the market-drawing over 80 interested groups, Martelli's expertise helped Alden and Ruth to move quickly, bid confidently, and secure the home under budget, despite intense competition and a confusing undervalued council valuation.
With the help of a buyers agent, Alden and Ruth avoided costly mistakes, saved time, and gained a trusted advocate in a complex, fast-moving market-proving the value of expert support for any serious buyer.
Alex is a confident and hardworking buyer's agent who is very prompt and responsive (something that nurtures trust in any relationship) and she was also brilliant at helping us with the bidding process during our auction, and her guidance was instrumental for a successful purchase. We're very happy with the home she recommended. Thanks Alex!
