Testimonials

We recently engaged Cherry Ning to assist with the sale of our property in Glendene. From the outset we found Cherry to be very professional and extremely knowledgeable of the local area. Cherry informed us of the sale process and various marketing options available. Cherry also provided a detailed listing of comparable sales in the area which was great in helping us arrive at a realistic price expectation.

Throughout the marketing phase Cherry kept us well informed as to the number of viewings, interested parties and their feedback with a weekly activity report and conference call. Cherry guided us through the auction process providing assurance in what can be a stressful situation. Entering into a flat market with the added stress of selling in an uncertain election result environment was stressful but Cherry’s experience, networking and guidance through this phase made the whole process seamless and stress free for us.

We firmly believe that Cherry’s experience, local knowledge and professionalism helped us achieve a quick sale at a price which exceeded our expectations. We have no hesitation in highly recommending Cherry to anyone looking to buy or sell a property in West Auckland.

We reluctantly decided it was time to put our property on the market for the first time in 48 years. Understandably, we were very nervous and wanted to find the right agent to help us with the daunting process. We interviewed several agents from different companies and found Cherry Ning from Barfoot and Thompson to be the one we liked the most.

She was very knowledgeable on the Glendene area and had an honest friendly approach to her advice. She has a well-regarded reputation and we were encouraged by the comments of the other competing agents who had nothing negative to say about Cherry (we were surprised that the other competing agents were prepared to give positive comments about Cherry).

We knew we had made the right choice when we realized how thorough Cherry was with the marketing campaign and how well she kept us involved in the process. She is one of the hardest working people we have met. Within one week of listing our property we had received three offers, despite there being a downturn in the market prior to the election. The result has completely exceeded our expectations and we can’t thank Cherry enough for helping us get through this stressful time.

We are very happy to recommend Cherry as a fantastic, honest, reliable person and someone who showed genuine concern and professionalism at all times.

Robert Ling

When the time came to look to downsize and sell our family home of 26 years, we were keen to go with somebody that knew the area well, had proven success and above all else, someone we felt we could trust. Cherry Ning was at the top of our list to speak with first. After meeting with Cherry we signed up with her. Our reasons for doing this were that Cherry had lived in the area for a number of years, had sold dozens of properties, knew the market and above all this had clearly spent many years developing her own personal brand based on honesty, trust, passion and follow through.

Throughout the whole sales process Cherry kept us totally up to date, explained the process she was working through and gave us honest and timely feedback after each open home. We put our total trust in Cherry who was a total professional throughout the whole process.

We are certainly not experts or specialists in the field of Real Estate and are so very grateful and appreciative of all the work, long hours and dedication that Cherry put in to sell our family home of 26 years – great work.

Dave and Ann Ansell

We are very happy with Cherry’s service and commitment to help us sell our house recently.

We found her very knowledgeable about the market and she gave us good and dependable advice throughout. We were also impressed with her calm demeanour even in the most stressful situations.

She was professional all the way and treated all potential buyers with respect. We will definitely recommend her to anybody wanting to sell their house.

Vulinovich family

Our dealings with Cherry were awesome. She was very thorough, professional and pleasant. Her personality made the process less stressful.

The property was not a normal house; a difficult sale we had been told . Cherry found our buyer no auction, and got a CASH deal within 2 months of marketing.

At more than originally anticipated Cherry exceeded our expectations. I would recommend Cherry as No 1 sales person in my book.

John Cline

When we came to sell our home we had been aware of Cherry’s presence as one of the top agents in our suburb for some time. We still looked at other possible alternatives for selling, but in the end our decision was swayed by Cherry’s superior knowledge of our area, combined with her friendly persistence and dedication to helping us achieve the very best sale price for our house.

Our house was not quite run of the mill for our suburb, so we needed an agent who was prepared to understand the unique features that it offered and to promote these. This, Cherry did really really well. She arranged everything that you would expect, just that everything was done to a very high standard. She worked with us to develop a marketing package that promoted the house to the widest possible range of potential buyers, keeping us informed on a regular basis.

We achieved a great result, and we have no reservations in recommending Cherry to look after the sale of your home. We would certainly use her again.

Dave & Leanne Mete

Before we put our house on the market, we interviewed quite a few agents but we chose Barfoot and Cherry in the end.

Barfoot because of their great network, Cherry because of her knowledge of the neighbourhood and the current market….It was the best decision we made.

We had put our trust in Cherry completely and we were absolutely thrilled with the results. From us to you: We really recommend Barfoot and we highly recommend Cherry!

Tony & Linda Johns

Cherry is hard working, diligent and does her best to obtain the very best price for your home.

We found Cherry professional and refreshing in her approach. She knows the market extremely well and gave us an accurate evaluation for our home. All other agents we interviewed were hesitant to give us a figure and we found them extremely conservative. As the saying goes “If you don’t aim for the stars you will never get there”.

You can feel confident and relaxed with Cherry in charge of the sale of your property knowing that she will work and negotiate the very best price for you. We cannot recommend Cherry highly enough, should we ever sell again she would be our only choice!

Dennis and Debbie Warrington

We recently sold our beautiful home through Barfoot and have been looked after by Cherry Ning. Cherry has been very pleasant and efficient to deal with. There were a few unforeseen issues with the auction campaign but Cherry promptly dealt with all those and arranged for the relevant concerns to be sorted and resolved instantly.

Cherry’s communication has always been very clear, professional and personable, which we really appreciate. Her knowledge of our area is brilliant and this definitely came in handy when setting a price on the property. Her colleagues not only from her own office but throughout the western areas, have great respect for her and this brought many more buyers through our property as other agents from around our western area knew that her listings are handled correctly and so her sellers expectations are realistic.

We loved the fact that she listened to our needs and instantly resolved any concerns to lessen any stress that we may have had with the process of a house sale. Very grateful for your hard work Cherry. Thank you.

Dino Curo

Due to personal circumstances, my aging mother decided it was time to sell her house. She thought Cherry was a very popular property agent in Glendene and decided to use her to help market her property.

From the first time Cherry came to meet my mother, she told her very honestly what she thought of the property – the good plus the challenges. Cherry was very knowledgeable about her work, even telling my mother about the proposed unitary plan which will impact her property later on. Although my mother had spoken to a few other agents before choosing Cherry to market her property, she felt she did not get the reassurance from these other agents from their knowledge nor their honesty.

Cherry did a fantastic job marketing the property, bringing in many groups to inspect the house during open homes, and many potential Chinese investors, something my mother felt would not have been achieved if she had used a Korean property agent. The property was auctioned off successfully at a price above our expectations and my mother was very satisfied and happy with the results. Our family highly recommends Cherry to anybody intending to sell their property!

Min Gu Yeo

We recently sold our Property in New Lynn with Cherry Ning, she was absolutely fantastic, a pleasure to deal with.

Her appraisal and market advice was very accurate and she had lots of buyers interested very quickly resulting in a great outcome for us.

Her communication was top notch and we would recommend her without hesitation.

Mike and Paula Thomas

We would like to thank you for your professional help in giving us the knowledge on how to sell our house to its full potential.

We appreciate your patience and honesty during this time and would definitely be recommending you to our family and friends.

Kind Regards and Thanks again.

Adrian Naylor

We engaged Cherry Ning to market our property in Te Atatu Peninsula in 2016. We have found Cherry to be a very dedicated salesperson.

The photos she took were of very high quality which reflects well on the house. Cherry gives regular feedback on open homes and met with us weekly to discuss the marketing progress. Our house eventually sold at a very good price at auction.

I have been an investor for many years, and have never met a more dedicated salesperson like Cherry, perhaps that is her secret to success. I would have no hesitation to recommend Cherry Ning to you if you are thinking of selling.

Coral Wong

Cherry was perfectly professional throughout the entire marketing process of the sale of my house, from photography right up to the day of final inspection.

She even spent 4 hours on a Sunday taking me around to look at different properties that could be suitable for my new living condition.

She was always very empathetic and I never felt pressured to make any decisions that could influence the sale of my property. I can see why she is so successful and I highly recommend her as an agent to anyone looking to sell their house.

Lorraine H

Cherry was just marvelous and I was very happy with the way she successfully marketed and sold my property recently.

She provided me with updates regularly and explained everything very clearly to me. She was very good.

I would definitely recommend her to anybody who wants to sell their house.

Margret Bennett

It is with much pleasure we write to say a BIG thank you.

We were drawn to you by the number of photo boards in our area bearing your name and once we met you we understood why. When selling a house it is critical that the property is marketed to its fullest potential to attract buyers to the home. From the onset we were impressed with your calm professional manner, your attention to detail and your “drive” to ensure that a successful marketing plan be designed for the sale of our property. Preparation for this began immediately and within two days potential buyers started to arrive culminating in a sale within 3 weeks. We are in no doubt that this quick result is due to the way in which you managed the marketing-you get people in gate!

It was a pleasure to meet you and we wish you the very best for the future.

Wayne and Lin Savage

I found Cherry to be friendly, hardworking and very professional.

She kept me in the loop with updates regularly and was fantastic on auction day.

I was very happy with her service and the overall marketing she did for the sale of my house.

Lynda Nicol

We met Cherry at one of her open homes. We had seen her name on most real estate signs posted in Glendene so we already knew of her. It was immediately apparent that Cherry is good at what she does, she was friendly, knowledgeable and approachable but most importantly for us, genuine.

Cherry appraised our home for us the very same day and presented a very professional analysis and assessment of where we stood in the current market. Soon after we put an offer in on a property and needed to sell our home quickly in order to purchase the new house. We contacted Cherry and she met with us the same day and in four days our house was on the market.

Five days after listing we met with Cherry and told her we were extra keen to sell and would likely accept a pre auction offer, by the very next day she had lined up two possible pre-auction offers. We got a pre-auction offer which we accepted 8 days after we went on the market. Cherry’s immediate response to this was “Ok, now we need to get you more money”.

Despite a confirmed sale she kept working to ensure there were bidders at our pre auction. We ended up with four bidders and our house sold for $56k more than the pre auction offer. We were stoked. The sale price far exceeding our expectations. We sold when the market was cooling so it was quite nerve racking. Throughout the whole process Cherry reassured us that our house would sell without any issues and calmed our nerves.

We highly recommend Cherry to sell your house.

Peter & Kristina Fuiava

Ray and Jan Batten

We have found that Cherry has been the most efficient, responsive and knowledgeable agent we have ever deal with. She has great knowledge of local market.

Cherry is well organised & very dedicated person. She listens (actually listens!), explains everything, keeps in constant contact throughout the process with updates and clear directions, and never lets the ball drop. She made the home selling process much more pleasant than we could have ever imagined!

If we ever need a real estate agent in the future, there is no one else that I will call. We’ve recommended her to a number of people and wouldn’t hesitate to do so again.

Pranav & Nirali Amin

Cherry has good reputation in this area. Cherry has an enthusiastic and energetic approach.

We first met her at an open home about 18 months ago and over the following months she maintained contact even though she was not to know that we would eventually sell our house – or indeed that we would use her. She also visited us a few times, and acted as if we were her only clients. Our relationship was always cordial, even when we asked hard questions.

She kept us well informed or what was happening in the market and shared specific information relevant to us and our area. My wife describes her as “Tops!” .We would absolutely recommend her to others.

Murray & Karena Woodfield

We met Cherry and straight away liked her approach and marketing package.

She had great enthusiasm and seemed very confident in getting the right buyer for our property .She had some great open homes and did a terrific job at getting a lot more people through than we anticipated.

Overall our experience with Cherry was fantastic and I would thoroughly recommend her to any new clients.

Andy Francis

The effort that you put into selling our home was truly amazing. The video, the pictures, the weekly catch up meetings (keeping us informed on all the process and progress towards the sale of our home) as well as all the care and attention you gave to us. We have never sold a house before only ever bought so this was all new territory for us but you made it a stress-free process.

The video that you had done for us was amazing not just the pictures but you managed to get our dearly loved family cat in (with much sadness passed away a few days later ) so thank you.

In having said all of this we would not hesitate in highly recommending you to any future potential customers. Thank you again Cherry for everything.

Tracey & Peter Johnson

Just writing to say thank you SO much for your hard work selling our property.

I really appreciated your advice, phone manner and amazing attitude. You and the Barfoot & Thompson team have managed a sale in a short period of time which enabled me to secure my dream home. Most importantly, I’m very happy with the good price!

I think you’re terrific at your job and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend you to anyone else.

Hayley Cunningham

We have just successfully completed the sale of a property in Glendene. This process was initiated, organised and completed by Cherry Ning.

Throughout she maintained close communication with us, was very effective in negotiation, worked hard to firm up offers and was professional in securing a favourable deal.

We are very happy to recommend her services.

Julian and Susan Pirie

We have used Cherry to sell our property at auction.

She is a very friendly, hard working and professional person.

We would definitely recommend if you want top price and be informed every step of the way.

Richard and Alesha Eade

We have used Cherry to sell a few investment properties on our behalf. She is a very hard-working agent who always kept us informed.

Her expertise in marketing and communicating with buyers is excellent, and unlike other agents we have used and come across, we always felt Cherry was working absolutely for us and in our interest at all times.

We would recommend Cherry to anyone looking for a great agent in Auckland who is hard-working and always focused on client outcomes.

Heather and Aaron Jopson

I first met Cherry when she was out and about meeting people in our street. I was really impressed with her attitude, enthusiasm and the effort she put into marketing herself. A real point of difference. I thought at the time, “if I ever need to use a real estate consultant I/we would use her”.

As chance would have it an unexpected 2 month window presented itself for us resume our 3 year search for a suitable property on the Te Atatu Peninsula. Cherry listened and in a very short space of time found that elusive property. Now we had to sell our own.

Having personally bought and sold 8 properties over the years, 4 of them privately – and spent 4 years in real estate, we had planned to sell privately. However, in the current volatile market the predominance of auctions and the importance of this particular sale to us, we decided to leave it to the professionals. Who else but Cherry Ning.
We were not disappointed. Her coolness under fire, her professionalism, organisational skills, marketing ability, use of technology, enthusiasm and energy brought a result we could not have achieved ourselves.

We have no hesitation in recommending Cherry Ning to anyone wanting to buy or sell real estate. If anyone can do it she can!

John and Jennifer Pankhurst

Thanks Cherry for the excellent job you did on selling our house recently. We really appreciated that you listened to what we wanted, had a clear plan in place to achieve it and worked hard to deliver a great result.

You did a fantastic job at keeping us informed all the way through especially given that we were out of town for most of the sale period.

We would be happy to work with you again and would definitely recommend you to anyone who is looking for a hard working, committed agent who you can trust to get the job done right.
