St Heliers Clifftop Masterpiece
Cam and Xenia approached Martelli Buyers needing to find a home in the Eastern Suburbs closer to schools and work. They had a great budget to work with for a large family home, but the online options were limited and they knew that access to off-market and pre-market homes would be necessary. As a busy family they also had limited time to view houses and complete due diligence, were not familiar with the premium streets, and didn't want their time wasted investigating the wrong or over priced houses.
Martelli Buyers sourced more than 40 homes for Cam and Xenia during the search, 80% of which were off-market or pre-market, focussing on homes on some of Remuera, Kohimarama and St Heliers’ best streets. The challenge was finding a home that was exceptionally well built, had level indoor/outdoor flow to a pool, and was within walking distance to a local village or Auckland's beautiful Tamaki Drive. These homes are tightly held for decades and often sell quietly off-market. Martellis reviewed and discounted many properties due to high vendor price expectations and issues found during our internal due diligence.
The perfect family home was sourced off market in the heart of St Heliers, through our agent relationships, spanning 500+sqm over three levels with sea views, swimming pool, cinema room, sauna and spa, and generous living areas. The due diligence for this property was both complex and thorough, and after weeks of back and forth negotiations we were able to secure the home for the right terms for our buyers
It was a pleasure to work with Cam and Xenia to purchase this truly exceptional family home.
This was our first time using a buyer’s agent, and we’re now completely convinced it’s the only way to buy. Alex and Karin genuinely had our best interests at heart—they were patient, professional, and helped us stay grounded on both price and emotions. They showed us some incredible properties, always encouraging us to hold out for the right one rather than settle.
Thanks to Alex’s strong relationships with agents, we had access to many off-market opportunities—and never had to deal with a single selling agent ourselves. Alex is a sharp, fair negotiator who always had our back, making the whole process smooth, stress-free, and even fun. Highly recommend!
