Just Paterson Real Estate Limited MREINZ

Fantastic experience: We are so lucky to have been assisted by Michael in our home purchase. Michael is incredibly real and knowledgeable, so broke down what was previously overwhelming into a really exciting time. We love how much he knows Kandallah (down to our new neighbors) which added such a personal touch and moved us from purchasing a house to really feeling at home. I could not recommend reaching out to Michael when looking to purchase more - loves his job and is epic to have alongside in the process!

Fantastic experience: Amazing to work with. We honestly could not have of asked for a better agent as first home buyers. Michael was supportive, patient and incredibly approachable, he always took the time to explain things clearly so we always understood what was happening. It genuinely felt like he was working with us, rather than just for the vendors. What really stood out to us, was that he was truely excited for us every step of the way, it felt like he celebrated each milestone alongside us. His honesty and encouragement made what could have been a more stressful process, feel much easier. We are so grateful for everything he did for us and would highly recommend Michael, especially to other first home buyers.

Fantastic experience: Top recommendation. Michael Hinds was recommended by my property manager who said when comes to find an agent for selling properties Michael Hinds from Justpaterson is always the best choice. It proofed SO true ! He and his assistant Andrea Jetly worked so hard even though I cut their big chunk of commission fee Amazingly they managed to sell my student apartment within a short period of time with over the top of price guide! Also they went extra miles to help me sorting out problems outside their work range. I was truly impressed and appreciated by their efforts put into. I won’t try another agent when I sell my next apartment and promise there won’t be a commission cut, cause Michael and Andrea deserve it !

Fantastic experience: Over delivered in record time. We were thrilled with the outcome Michael and his team delivered for us. He sold our apartment in record time, well beyond our expectations, both in terms of how quickly it sold, but also how smooth, professional and well managed the process was. Michael's strategy was clear from day one, his market knowledge was excellent, and his honestly and confidence immediately put us at ease. Communication was outstanding, always timely, open and pro-active and we never felt out of the loop. What really impressed us though was the care he took in the details, from the way the property was presented to how he guided the final negotiations. Nothing ever felt rushed or taken for granted. It was clear that he really wanted the best for us and he delivered just that. We are extremely grateful for his efforts and would highly recommend him to anyone looking to sell. He made what could have been a stressful experience completely effortless.

Fantastic experience: Top Agent of the year. Michael was extremely helpful and help us navigate through our first house experience. He was very helpful and knowledgable. I would recommend Michael to everyone. Michael you are truly amazing..

Fantastic experience: We loved working with Mike to sell our property. His genuine care for us showed in the way he made an effort to get to know us and our needs. His commitment to building positive connections with us and our family made the relationship easy, and meant that we trusted him from the get-go to get the job done. He has high standards and works for the best outcome. We highly recommend Mike, and are very grateful for his guidance through the whole process of selling our house.

Fantastic experience: Outstanding service - professional, 100% reliable and genuinely supportive.

Fantastic experience: We recently had the pleasure of working with Michael in the purchase of our home. From the get-go, he was easy to work with, flexible, highly professional, and showed great integrity. He’s down-to-earth and straightforward. His communication was top-notch, keeping us informed of each step of the process, and addressing every question we threw at him. Michael goes above and beyond just doing his job; he’s very hard-working and strives to reach a deal that pleases all parties, and does it in a personable, friendly way. Highly recommended! Thanks Michael; you're a real mensch!

Fantastic experience: Top-tier - I wouldn't want anyone else! From the moment we walked into the open home, Michael had a huge smile and was very welcoming. We were extremely interested in the home and the service from Michael made us feel like we wanted it even more. Throughout the whole process his communication and professionalism were outstanding, we both felt comfortable and feel very lucky to have someone who could help us feel this way, during a somewhat scary time (buying our first home).

Fantastic experience: Excellent experience from start to finish with a warm, smart and experienced team who make the (sometimes challenging) process smooth and straightforward. Michael Hinds loves what he does and it shows. Highly recommend.

Fantastic experience: Caring, Supportive, and Knowledgeable. Michael was nothing but supportive, caring and trustworthy for the entire process of selling my house. Michael's communication was second to none, with regular updates on open homes, private viewings and how things were tracking. His transparency and strong communication helped to create piece of mind that the house was in the right pair of hands. Michael's extensive market knowledge allowed for him to deliver a fantastic outcome for me as a seller. He knew exactly what the house had to offer and how that stacked up in the market to ensure that valuable features were being highlighted to potential buyers. I can't recommend Michael enough as an agent. His caring nature, transparency, and knowledge will ensure not only a positive outcome but also a painless sale experience full of support.

Fantastic experience: Michael went above and beyond expectations. The stress of dealing with Mum's estate was made easier by having a great agent who went above and beyond expectations. He made sure we got the best price and very quickly too. Organising tradies, prices etc all done without a worry. Being several hours away from the house meant this made the process so easy. Thank you Michael (and team) for the awesome work and the Hot Choc!

Fantastic experience: Exceptional Agent Who Truly Cares - We couldn’t have asked for better! We couldn’t have asked for a better real estate agent! From start to finish, Michael was absolutely amazing — taking the time to explain every step, making sure we felt comfortable and confident throughout the whole process. You can tell he truly cares about his clients; he looked after us like family and went above and beyond in every way. It speaks volumes that the previous owners trusted him to sell the house to them and then asked him to sell it again — that’s the kind of trust and professionalism he inspires. We’re so grateful for all his help and couldn’t recommend him more highly!

Fantastic experience: Exemplary service and integrity - and the power of connection:. Last last thing we wanted was to be "sold" a house. We really wanted to be "connected" to a home that we as a couple and family would have for generations to come. That first point of contact with the home we connected with and then purchased, was greatly influenced by the warmth and connection Michael Hinds brought to the eventual purchase. People often say it is the journey and not the destination, though this is often said but not always done. Michael's ability to connect with us, his genuine humanity and desire to see people connect with a home that connected with them resonated deeply. Having spent the last three months looking for a home, the gamut of "sales" pitches and sales agents, became very clear to us and Michael was a welcome reprieve to some interesting experiences we had had.. We are so grateful for the professionalism, friendly candor and "nothing was a problem" attitude - Michael honored the journey, the destination and connection, so the the home we eventually purchased became the end of a wonderful journey for us all. In a time when the noise of life can become deafening, sales and sales pitches both digital and in person are sometimes overwhelming - what a reprieve, humanity, honesty and faith in the good can make to connecting to a home we will cherish, and a journey with Michael Hinds and the team at Just Paterson we will cherish also. We cant wait to move into and connect with our new home, and to continue our connection also, with good people we have met along the way. Michael is one of those we look forward to connecting with more. Nga mihi nunui, e meitaki ranuinui and thank you - Thomas and Juanita.

Fantastic experience: Buying our first home was such an important milestone, and we couldn’t have asked for a better real estate agent than Michael. From day one, he went above and beyond — keeping us updated every single day, following up promptly, and making sure we always knew where things stood. Michael’s communication was clear, kind, and completely transparent, which made the whole process feel smooth and stress-free. He guided us through every step with genuine care and professionalism. Even worked late into the evening — to make sure the deal got done. We truly felt supported and well-informed from start to finish. Michael’s dedication and commitment are second to none. We would absolutely recommend him to anyone looking to buy or sell a home. He genuinely deserves every bit of this 5-star rating!

Fantastic experience: Wonderful experience . I am super grateful to Michael for making the purchase of my first home such an effortless experience. His kind and thoughtful approach made every step of the process feel memorable and special. Michael’s communication was always prompt, clear, and transparent, and he consistently showed great consideration throughout. Michael felt very generous with his time, never making me feel rushed through viewings at the house and gave considered and detailed responses to my questions and emails. I didn't realise buying a house could be borderline fun and cheerful. But Michael somehow managed to do so...How refreshing after a long and slightly painful house hunt process! I hope all first home buyers get to have Michael as their agent

Fantastic experience: Highly recommend Charles Morley Hall. Charles went above and beyond throughout the entire process of selling and closing on our mum’s house. He provided clear guidance, kept us informed at every step of the process. His care and professionalism made a difficult time much easier for our family. We are grateful for his support and would not hesitate to recommend him.

Fantastic experience: Michael Hinds sold our place in just 9 days and got us a strong offer that was unconditional with a settlement date that worked perfectly for us. He was super easy to deal with, always available, and nothing was ever a hassle. Michael made the whole process stress-free and gave great advice along the way. We’d definitely recommend him if you’re thinking of selling.

Fantastic experience: Buying our new home through Michael was a breeze! Right from the first text message we found Michael to be responsive and very helpful. Michael has a calm, friendly, relaxed way of approaching the business of real estate. We had been looking for our next home for a few months, but within just over a week of reaching out, we'd made an offer on one of Michael's listings and had it accepted within hours - the smoothest real estate process we've experienced! Michael is a people person who takes a pragmatic, solutions-focused approach to getting houses sold. He was able to strike the right balance between being helpful during viewings, through providing guided tours of the property, to giving us enough space to investigate for ourselves. He was able to answer all of our questions about the listing quickly, and was an effective intermediary between us and the vendor. Michael genuinely seems to care, which you don't always come across in the business of buying and selling houses - we highly recommend him!

Fantastic experience: Best in the Business. I can't thank Michael Hinds and his team enough for the effort they put into selling my mother's house, allowing her to remain in her retirement home. There were a lot of obstacles for them to navigate, but they handled each and every task with professionalism. I would highly recommend Michael and his team; they are the complete package of professionals in every way

Fantastic experience: Excellent . Very professional in their business dealings, communication and follow through. Working well together with owners to meet expectations. Have a great support team to ensure things run smoothly.

Fantastic experience: An outstanding result and a whirlwind of fun thrown in for good measure. When you engage a real estate agent, you take a leap of faith. How pleased we are that we took that leap with Mike and Andrea. Mike was focused, energetic and relentlessly positive. He kept us on course and sold our home in 19 days in a really tough market. Mike listened to our goals, then articulated a clear strategy to get us there, set realistic expectations along the way, while continuing to make us laugh. He clearly knows the market and is skilled in the science/art of selling property. Mike and Andrea made the process fun despite the inherent stress of selling our much loved home. Their regular communication meant we always knew what was going on and felt very much like we were working in partnership with them. Go on, take your leap with this fabulous team. We are delighted that we did. Thanks for everything Mike and Andrea.

Fantastic experience: A top-notch real state agent. Michael is truly one of the best people we’ve ever met—so down to earth, kind-hearted, and an excellent communicator. As first-time homebuyers, we had a lot of questions and uncertainties, but Michael guided us through every step of the process with patience, clarity, and genuine care. What meant the most to us was how personal he made the experience. Not only did he support us professionally, but he also prayed for us, which touched us deeply and showed just how much he cares about the people he works with. Thanks to Michael, everything went smoothly and felt so much easier than we expected. We are incredibly grateful to have had him by our side during this exciting new journey. We highly recommend Michael to anyone looking for a top-notch real estate agent—he’s exceptional in every way.

Fantastic experience: Absolutely amazing! . We could not recommend Michael enough! He was so helpful throughout the entire process from start to finish. He gave us a great tour of the house. Answered all our questions and was incredibly supportive throughout some very tricky situations while sorting through our conditions. As first home buyers we were beyond lucky to have Michael's help to purchase our first home and reach our goals. Thank you Michael!

Fantastic experience: Michael was an excellent communicator, positive, friendly and hard-working throughout the sale process. No task was too big, and he kept us informed every step of the way. He explained our options and used his professional knowledge to guide us to an excellent outcome. We would recommend Michael as an agent that goes above and beyond for his clients. Thank you Michael!

Fantastic experience: Agent that goes above and beyond. Michael was a pleasure to deal with from start to finish and the consummate professional. Along with his excellent right hand lady Andrea they communicated all the important details regularly and kept me updated on every lead and conversation. In the end we got the apartment sold in a tough market and everyone was happy. I'd definitely work with them this powerful duo again.

Fantastic experience: Great buyer experience. We met Michael from attending an open home and from that initial meeting, Michael did an amazing job listening to what we both wanted and guiding us in a proactive and professional way to ultimately purchase our new home. It was smooth sailing all the way with all our questions and concerns addressed in a timely manner.

Fantastic experience: We had the pleasure of working with Michael and Andrea during our home-buying journey, and we couldn't be happier with the experience. Michael's genuine, honest and warm approach, along with his wealth of expert knowledge, filled us with confidence from the get go. He was incredibly approachable and accommodating throughout the entire process, responding promptly to every text, call and email. No request was too big for Michael and Andrea；they arranged multiple private viewings and happily answered all of our questions. Buying a first home can be a daunting experience, but thanks to Michael and Andrea the whole process was seamless and stress free. We truly appreciate their hard work and support and highly reccomend them to anyone looking to buy a home.

Fantastic experience: Michael was great, he understood our needs and designed a campaign to suit us. Andrea was super helpful too, keeping us up to date with extra information we may have needed from time to time, and reassuring us when we were a bit nervous. Both of them went the extra mile and secured us the sale! Would highly recommend Michael and the Just Paterson team.

Fantastic experience: Second to none! First time selling a property, and in a market that is currently going through some challenges, I was extremely nervous about the process and what would be our result. Thankfully we were lucky enough to find Michael. Michaels personal, open, and honest approach was exactly what was required. He was with us during every step of the process and his communication was amazing. What he was able to achieve for us, and the buyer was an outstanding result. Thank you Michael, you and Andrea are world class. If I could give more than 5 stars I would. I know we will be reaching out to you again when we next require a realtor.

Fantastic experience: This is the second time we have sold with Michael and we’re so pleased we came back a second time. Michael and Andrea make a fantastic team and once again, went above and beyond to support us in the sale of our property. We had an incredible turn out at our open homes and managed to secure an unconditional offer come deadline day thanks to their amazing support and guidance. Nothing was ever too big or small for Michael nor Andrea, no matter what time of the day. They kept us well informed every step of the way and listened to our needs. If you’re selling or buying, Michael and Andrea are your team. You will absolutely not regret it!

Fantastic experience: The best of the best! Charles was simply superb - a real pleasure to deal with, and a professional who got us an excellent result at a time when the market was at its lowest. His recommended pricing and marketing strategy was spot on, and his experience and track record was clear in everything he did - from his advice about preparing the house for sale to the way he closed the deal. Highly recommended.

Fantastic experience: First Home Purchase a Dream! As a first-time homebuyer, I was nervous and had a lot of questions, but Michael Hinds guided me through every step with patience, professionalism, genuine care and enthusiasm! Michael went above and beyond to make sure everything went smoothly, ensuring I felt supported every step of the way. Thanks to Michael I am now a proud homeowner!

Fantastic experience: Michael goes the extra mile. We have both been really impressed with the effort Michael put into selling our property. He went above and beyond with getting the result he did for us. The hours that he put in paid off for us achieving a great outcome. Michael's communication throughout the process was exceptional. We would certainly recommend Michael to anyone selling their property.

Fantastic experience: Real Pro!! Working with Michael Hinds was an absolute pleasure, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. From the very beginning, he displayed an incredible knowledge of the Wellington property market, specifically in Northern suburbs and was fully committed to making sure potential buyers will come and check out our home. He took the time to listen to our needs and preferences, consistently presenting options that were closely aligned with what we were looking for. He helped us sort tradies, and wait.... he even water blasted our property and pavements. Even our neighbour was impressed! He also made sure that he gets the right information from us when buyers are asking. Something we didn't experience when we were on the buying side. One thing that really stood out was Michael’s transparency, honesty and down to earth attitude. In a market that can sometimes feel unpredictable, he kept us well-informed every step of the way. He was always upfront about any potential challenges with selling, which made us feel like he genuinely had our best interests at heart. To Michael, thank you for helping us get our home sold! You rock!

Fantastic experience: Bundles of friendly and professional energy. Had a very good experiencing working with Michael on purchasing our first home. Right from the first open home til after the tender date the communication and presentation was top notch. Very friendly and doesn't take up too much of your time.

Fantastic experience: Outstanding marketing, communication and professionalism given to me throughout the selling process. A big thank you to Michael Hinds and Andrea Jetly for their exceptional work in selling my Apartment. It was a very tough gig but they made it seamless. Their communication skills were top notch and faultless. For their genuine care and support. I will always be truly grateful to these two wonderful people for selling my Apartment.

Fantastic experience: Michael is simply operating at another level compared to the other agents in the area, many of whom we dealt with in pursuit of our first home. He is hardworking to a fault, clearly dedicated to achieving the best outcome for his vendors while caring for prospective buyers like us in the process. He is truly deserving of the hype and accolades he's receiving. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend Michael to anyone buying or selling a property. In fact, we wouldn't want to deal with anyone else. Thank you, Michael.

Fantastic experience: Would give 10 stars if we could! We are so thankful that we found our dream first home with Michael Hinds, as he made the whole process about as seamless as it could be. Michael was incredibly knowledgeable about the property and gave us an extensive tour of the place, which made us feel at ease that he had clearly done his research. We had a lot of questions and uncertainties (being our first home and offer process) and Michael was so quick to put us at ease and got quick outcomes for us. He was really understanding of our needs and was very flexible with us wanting to have spontaneous visits to the property to calm any nerves we had. Would absolutely recommend him - he has been amazing!

Fantastic experience: Fantastic experience. Top Wellington agent. I can wholeheartedly recommend Michael as an agent & as a person. Honest, professional, straightforward & helpful, he made what could have been a very stressful experience smooth sailing. If you are looking to buy or sell I recommend you forget about the rest & contact Michael. You will not be sorry.

Fantastic experience: Professional, knowledgeable and all-round great guy making the house buying process easy. I had the pleasure of working with Michael during my recent purchase, and I cannot recommend him highly enough. From the first open home visit, he provided exceptional service and support, making what could have been a stressful experience feel smooth and straightforward. Michael is full of knowledge, professional, and his communication was great. Always picks up the phone, answers questions and offers great advice making the process a lot easier.

Fantastic experience: Michael is very friendly, knowledgeable and is an excellent comunicator, plus a really nice guy. He was really helpful even after our sale with advice and support. Would highly recommend.

Fantastic experience: This is how a buyer experience should be! Dealing with Michael has really been a dream come true and in the most magical way. Words alone cannot describe how outstanding he is. As first-home buyers, we had experienced our fair share of disappointing and frustrating encounters with other agents and companies. We honestly never thought someone like Michael still existed. From our very first interaction to the present, Michael has been a steadfast source of support. His depth of knowledge about the housing market is matched only by his kindness and genuine care. His people skills, manners, and compassion brighten every interaction. His proactive approach to helping us was nothing short of amazing and it really blew us away. Michael is not just an agent; he is a dedicated professional who goes above and beyond his duty to ensure his clients' satisfaction. He is the first person we've come across who genuinely cares about us and takes personal responsibility for helping us succeed whether that be through late-night paperwork or short-notice viewings, there is no corporate clock in Michael, just a kind-hearted individual who brings others up with him. In the daunting world of real estate, Michael Hinds is a diamond in the rough. JustPaterson, you have a secret weapon in Michael Hinds. Whether you're buying or selling a property, you owe it to yourself to let this gentle-giant guide you. Thank you for being you, Michael.

Fantastic experience: We chose Michael Hinds from Just Paterson to sell our house recently, and we couldn't be happier with his service. I have never seen anyone so organised, hardworking, motivated, knowledgeable and driven like Michael and his assistant Andrea. Also, they showed great passion for the job and positive energy. They worked hard to meet tight deadlines never compromising on their high standards, showing great integrity and empathy. It is of course not by chance that Michael has been the top award-winning agent for the last few years with excellent reviews. In addition to this, what makes Michael so special and different from many other agents are his people skills. With his genuine interest in people and their wellbeing, he builds rapport with buyers and sellers like very few can. We approached him (along with agents from other companies) about a year prior to inquire about selling the house, then had to sit on it, due to a change of circumstances. Only Michael kept in touch with us, filling us in about housing market information. We liked the way that he doesn't see people as just a business opportunity but wants the best for them. Like a family member or friend, you can trust him to keep his promises. I feel that calling Michael and Andrea amazing doesn't quite capture how good they really are. I highly recommend Michael Hinds from Just Paterson to anyone who is selling their house. Thank you for making what is normally a stressful task into wonderful experience for us, Michael! Choosing you as an agent was one of the best decisions we made.

Fantastic experience: What an agent. This was my second time buying property, and I can confidently say that Michael is a rare gem. From the very first moment we met at the open house to navigating the final stages of the sale, his warm and genuine enthusiasm for achieving the best outcome was evident. Michael was incredibly responsive to every question, concern, and emotion that arose during the sale process. He went above and beyond, even making himself available outside of normal working hours to help me address issues that I feared might jeopardise my ability to meet the sale conditions. Moreover, he skillfully balanced his loyalty to the vendor with his commitment to assisting me. It has been an absolute pleasure working with Michael (and Andrea), and I firmly believe that whether you’re buying or selling, you’re in exceptional hands with him.

Fantastic experience: So fabulous to work with. Michael Hinds was the selling agent when we purchased our first home in New Zealand, and to say he was a pleasure to work with was an understatement. He was always available for questions, to show us the house as many times as we wanted, really anything at all. We met a LOT of different agents during our home search, and there's no doubt Michael is among the best!

Fantastic experience: Who wants a top-notch agent? Michael made the selling experience a breeze. I felt confident that the sale was in the best hands as he laid out the well-informed plan for the sales campaign. His approach was positive and enthusiastic as he steered the sale. He kept me in the loop at all stages, I never felt pressured, and when we found our buyer Michael stepped up to ensure success. I cannot recommend his services highly enough. It's been an absolute pleasure.

Fantastic experience: Unbounded energy - Michael exceeded my high expectations. I engaged Michael to sell my rental in Norway Street, Aro Valley. I was emotionally attached to it as it was my first home, and was aware that I could have unrealistic expectations around the process, and be a tricky customer. Michael not only had compassion and empathy for my situation, but to go along with his high EQ he demonstrated an extraordinary knowledge of both the industry and the present environment. His advice was sometimes challenging to my thinking but in every case it completely paid off and I am so pleased that I trusted him with the sale of my important asset. I loved that I always felt heard, and that we could discuss all aspects of the sale and strategy in an open way, with me being able to share everything that concerned me about the market in a safe, thoughtful and respected way. Michaels energy and passion was unbounded - his communication was excellent and he truly went above and beyond - Andrea sending me a photo of him waterblasting the steps of my property the day before we went live is one I'll treasure forever. As well as his knowledge, compassion and energy - Michael impressed me with his understanding that this was an important and stressful time for my whole family. When coming into my home, before dealing with any 'business', he would stop and talk to each one of my children, making them feel part of it all and making me always feel like I was bringing my 'whole self' to this important activity, and that he was personally completely engaged with the sale. The final result exceeded my expectations in every way. I have no hesitation in giving Michael my highest recommendation.

Fantastic experience: Fantastic, friendly, and very well connected! Michael was able to hit the ground running and get a great deal over the line super quickly! I was really impressed with how well informed he kept me throughout the process and how fast he kept everything moving. Michael is very well connected and knows the Wellington property market inside out. Thank you Michael, you've helped me to move on to the next step in my property journey and I wouldn't hesitate to call you again as either a buyer or a seller!

Fantastic experience: Great communication and support. Really supportive and prompt in communications

Fantastic experience: Walked the talk. Michael shared his knowledge and experience and provided clear upfront and frequent information throughout the listing period. Michael put the effort into selling the listing and was honest in his appraisals and progress updates (walking the talk and talking the walk) and was very positive throughout the selling process. It was a pleasure working with Michael.

Fantastic experience: Very helpful, Champion! Michael has been very helpful in securing our new investment property. He went above and beyond and worked with us efficiently to ensure we had sufficient information to make an informed decision. Thanks, Michael, for all your help and support. We appreciate your assistance.

Fantastic experience: Never met an agent like him! Honestly we were so blown away by the service provided to us as buyers by Michael. He was kind, thoughtful, an excellent negotiator, and understanding of both our needs as a buyer and the vendors need throughout the buying/selling process. He is an agent that I can trust and I didn't feel at any stage that there was any dishonesty or anything to be aware of with full transparency in the way that Michael conducts his business. Michael has a way with people and understanding how the industry works that we haven't come across often being involved in real estate and many agents ourselves. I would use Michael over and over again for any buying and selling. He is onto it!

Fantastic experience: A guardian angel in the real estate business. From the first email contact with Michael, we knew we had found the most wonderful gentleman who we could trust and totally depend on to sell our most precious asset. Michael immediately reassured us , he could sell our house in the time line we wanted; he advised us immediately on everything from decluttering to storage, from finding the best lawyer for us and the best cleaner and a fabulous home staging company. Michael's personal support was invaluable as my husband's mother died in the process of selling our house; Michael swiftly stepped in so we had every support possible. Michael gave us unbelievable personal service and help when it came to the practicalities of preparing our house for sale. He came round to see us, at times to suit us, water blasted the paths and driveway, washed down the outside walls of our house and tidied up our gardens. You have to see Michael in action to witness his incredible work ethic; the results of his work were amazing and our house was show home ready, thanks to Michael's hard graft. Michael saw things to point out to a buyer that we had never thought of; he actually came and sat in our house for several hours to write up his detailed thoughts on the best way to sell our house. At times, Michael's attention and focus on selling our house was so great, it felt like we were his only clients; we had unbelievable support. The result of Michael's hard work was that our house sold after 1 open home and only several viewings. Michael liaised with our lawyers to ensure we had a settlement date , ideal for us, so we could get on our way to England. Having Michael sell our house saved us months of work and enabled us to reach our dream of an effortless sale; working with Michael has been one of the most rewarding and enjoyable processes we have ever been through. A thousand thanks Michael.

Fantastic experience: An Outstanding Experience Working with Michael. Working with Michael has been one of these occasions you only experience a few times in life. Throughout the marketing and selling process Michael has been the most motivated, dedicated, and professional person I have met. His approach is very personable, his communication is precise and clear, and he is a pleasure to deal with. Nothing is too hard; Michael even gives a hand keeping the property tidy. He helped us navigating through the sales process with ease and kept us informed at every step on the way. I can only highly recommend Michael for his exceptional service, professionalism, and achieving the results.

Michael and his team are the way to go if you want your property to sold with the best results. I really enjoyed working with them.

Fantastic experience: An excellent agent; I highly recommend Jules. I bought a house through Jules and the experience was excellent, so when it came to selling I didn’t hesitate to list my house with him. Jules is just incredibly good at what he does. He is great with people - open and honest with excellent communication. Jules ran a seamless marketing/sales process based on a sound knowledge of the market and my house sold at tender for a price I was very happy with. I found the whole process remarkably stress free. Thank you Jules and the Just Paterson team. I absolutely recommend Jules and team to any prospective seller.

Fantastic experience: Engaging and helpful . Jules is an excellent, hardworking salesman. He is thoughtful, full of ideas and willing to set up viewings at inconvenient times. Jules has many contacts in the community and the trades which were and continue to be very helpful. He is very discreet and very much a can-do person.

Michael is excellent in what he does and unlike other agents who are obviously just after commissions, we felt that Michael is genuine and works for what’s best for both parties. He is very honest, transparent and easy to deal with. Very pleased with his services so we have recommended him to our friends

Fantastic experience: Even the most well-intentioned research pales in comparison to experience, and Michael offered up his knowledge readily, freely, and frequently - and as a first-home buyer, his shared know-how was invaluable to receive. Every question I had was answered without hesitation and explained clearly. When I needed to engage with other professionals, such as lawyers, financial advisors, movers, etc. Michael was able to recommend several companies for each industry, quickly enabling me to reach out to the right people and assemble a team that made the home purchasing process a breeze! Michael was always contactable and accommodating to meeting times and locations, which made him exceptionally easy to work with. At the conclusion of the purchase, there was even a congratulatory gesture, which was the cherry on top of a quality service well delivered!

Fantastic experience: A True Professional. Some real estate agents phone it in, but not Michael. He recently sold my apartment, and I really think he went the extra mile to thoroughly understand the property and the potential buyers. Nothing was a problem, and he smoothed out the challenges that come with dealing with apartments. He was super friendly and positive the whole way through. Michael is one of those agents that you would not hesitate to contact again and again.

Fantastic experience: Outstanding Property Agent! As a first time investor, i had many questions and uncertainties about buying our first investment property but having the pleasure of working with Mr. Michael Hinds of Just Paterson Ltd.

Fantastic experience: Trustworthy and efficient . The house buying process is very stressful, but Salim made our purchase as easy as possible. It has been a positive experience with Salim, we felt very supported and involved throughout. We know that we can trust him and would recommend him highly. He knows the market and takes the time to get to understand his buyers needs and communicates well between vendor and buyer as well.

Fantastic experience: Salim assisted as the realtor of a house we purchased in Wellington. Throughout the purchase process he was professional but also friendly and approachable. He responded promptly to our queries / requests and was a pleasure to deal with.

Fantastic experience: Head and shoulders above the rest, Michael stands out from other real estate agents I have met. A genuinely likeable fella who works hard for his clients but is equally helpful and straight up with buyers. Excellent communication and supportive throughout the process. As previous reviews have mentioned, he waterblasted my paths (and got absolutely head to toe filthy!), whipped around with his leaf blower before open homes - I also took to calling him “above-and-beyond”. Michael, thanks so much for your help in selling my home, your experience and advice were always spot-on and apologies for covering your newly dry-cleaned suit in cat fur!

Fantastic experience: Great outcome. David provided good communication and was open and honest in achieving a great outcome - we are very happy in our new flat

Fantastic experience: Excellent service and professionalism. I would highly recommend Jules. Not does he only know his stuff but he is someone who goes the extra mile, always willing to help. He genuinely cares and it shows.

Fantastic experience: Painless process and stunning result. From the get go, Jules made the process of selling our house very relaxing. He gave us the space to think about his appraisal and was happy to answer all our questions before signing with him. Jules is very down to earth and gave us a very realistic/honest guide for our house. However he then put in the hours and managed to deliver far beyond our best expectations. It was a great experience working with Jules and we would highly recommend using his expertise.

Fantastic experience: Great guy, great results. Working with Jules from Just Paterson made selling our place a breeze. Beyond his exceptional real estate expertise, Jules stood out for his friendly approach. He made the entire process incredibly easy and the combination of his industry knowledge, great communication and easy-going demeanour really put our minds at ease. If you're looking for a real estate agent who not only excels in their field but is also a joy to work with, I definitely recommend JBR. Your sales journey will undoubtedly be successful and remarkably pleasant with Jules by your side.

Fantastic experience: What a pleasant experience! Jules had been outstanding in the way he communicates, he presents himself as a true professional and his knowledge of the property and the area made all the difference. As first home buyers, we consider ourselves fortunate to have him facilitate such a significant part of our "settling down" experience. Thx Jules

Fantastic experience: Exceeding Expectations. When we decided to sell our property, Michael was a game-changer. His deep understanding of our needs and the market dynamics transformed a complex process into a fulfilling journey. He balanced professionalism with a personal touch, expertly navigating the sale and presenting our property attractively. His marketing strategies brought in perfect buyers, leading to a sale that exceeded our expectations. Michael's blend of market knowledge and client-focused approach didn't just sell our property; it respected our goals, making the entire experience remarkably satisfying.

Fantastic experience: Michael has been excellent to work with. We bought a house that had an outstanding consent and Michael managed the whole process fast and efficiently. He kept us informed all along the way, at all hours. Michael clearly goes the extra mile for his vendors and does what it takes to get the sale done. For us as purchasers, it was a fantastic experience.

Fantastic experience: Michael the Magician: The Real Estate Agent Who Can Make Everyone Happy. So, I am writing this review post settlement, not just at the time of sale. We dealt with him over the past 3-4 months. Now when I reflect on how to summarise his character, these words pop up -Patient, Problem Solver, Great listener, outcome focused, excellent mediator, committed, keeps his promise. I believe his vast experience leading a school coupled with ability to learn fast has contributed to his work ethics and deliverables. He has an innate understanding of Vendor and Buyer psychology, and allows him to connect with them on a personal level. There's a saying, 'you can't please all the people all the time'. Somehow, Michael managed to prove this wrong. He achieved great outcome for the Vendors, and the purchasers' - I hear - are over the moon too. With his attitude, charisma, energy and ambition, if he continues on this trajectory, will make him one of the top real estate professionals in this country. You know sometimes you meet professionals who over promise and under deliver. I don't know how, Michael over promised and yet delivered above and beyond. We might even say that if you don't use his services, at least once, you are truly missing out.

Fantastic experience: Happy vendors! Achieved price we wanted in a challenging market. Kim's local knowledge and experience really paid off. Great attention to detail and support throughout the process.

Fantastic experience: Highly recommended Agent . I had the pleasure of working with Michael Hindes who is an exceptional property sales agent. I couldn't be happier with the experience. From start to finish, his professionalism and expertise shone through. He truly went above and beyond to ensure a smooth and successful transaction. From the moment we met, it was evident that Michael had a deep understanding of the real estate market. He took the time to listen to our needs and preferences, and he is incredibly knowledgeable about the local area, providing valuable insights about neighborhoods, schools, and amenities. What sets Michael apart is his dedication to their clients. He is always responsive and available to answer our questions, making us feel like a top priority. Throughout the process, he displayed excellent negotiation skills, ultimately securing an outstanding deal for us. Additionally, his marketing and presentation of our property was outstanding. The attention to detail in creating a compelling listing and the use of professional photography truly made our home stand out. But what truly makes Michael an exceptional sales agent is his integrity and honesty. We felt like we could trust him completely, and he provided valuable advice and guidance, even if it meant recommending against a particular property that didn't meet our needs. In the end, our experience with Michael resulted in a seamless and successful property transaction. I highly recommend Michael Hindes to anyone looking to buy or sell real estate. His knowledge, dedication, and integrity make him an outstanding choice for all your real estate needs. Thanks Gareth

Fantastic experience: Michael Hinds did an amazing job selling our house! He is extremely charismatic and left no stone unturned when it comes to finding potential buyers. More than that he was approachable and knowledgeable, he made me feel like I could ask him any question no matter how silly I thought it was. I can’t recommend Michael highly enough! He got us great offers and we’d highly recommend him to everyone looking for an agent.

Fantastic experience: We’re so thankful that we chose Michael to be our agent. Right from our first meeting he proved himself time and time again, going above and beyond from the outset. He always provided solid, honest advice, and never pushed us. We were able to trust him whole heartedly with the sale of our home - I’ve never seen someone work so hard! He makes you feel like you’re his only clients, even though he’s a busy man. Michael will keep you in the loop and responds to texts, emails and phone calls impossibly fast! He explored every possibility for us and went the extra mile, managing to get an incredible six offers on our home, and getting us the best possible sale price at the end. Exceeded all expectations and then some.

Fantastic experience: Superb agent, one of the good ones, 100% reliable and trustworthy. Michael has been outstanding to deal with, he explained the process from start to finish clearly and concisely and was always on hand to answer any left field questions. From the first real estate interaction I felt heard and valued, he even tailored what I needed during the sales / open homes process to fit in and around me. Provided invaluable weekly reports and check ins and kept things smoothly ticking along. Very impressed by his tenacious pursuit of a buyer, and then management of the entire offer procedure. I will purchase and sell with Michael in the future and be sure to recommend him to anyone thinking of putting their home on the market. He really has provided me with a glowing example of what a Real Estate Agent should be. Don’t delay, call him now!

Fantastic experience: Michael made the process so much easier for us. Michael Hinds proved himself a knowledgeable, highly capable person that we could trust to take us through the sales process of our home. The best part was how he kept us constantly appraised of all actions during this process. If you want a professional who maintains excellent communications with his clients, one who keeps his promises, then there is no-one other than Michael Hinds.

Fantastic experience: Very approachable agent with great property knowledge and transparent communication. We bought our home at the time where buyers were still plentiful and competition was high. Jules helped us make an informed decision by providing us all the relevant information around the property and its suburb. We never felt rushed or pressured in the process, as he took the time to make sure we were happy and confortable with our offer. He is a great communicator, but above all, we did really appreciate his honesty and his property knowledge.

Fantastic experience: Excellent result! Charles brought in an excellent offer 5 days after the listing went live, which was a great result. In the lead up to the listing, he gave very good advice on what was needed to present the townhouse, sourced people to help with preparation - and perhaps, just as importantly, advised on what didn't need to be done. His assessment of the market was realistic, as was his advice on the approach to pricing and method of sale. And it worked!

Fantastic experience: 5* All round Service. Michael is phenomenal, his commitment to our family went beyond just selling our home, we now have a friend for life. He truly understood our needs and worked tirelessly to have them met. He continually goes the extra mile. If you are looking for an agent who has a genuine desire to look after your best interests then Michael is the agent for you - he is straight up, charismatic, kind, caring, honest and absolutely knows his stuff! An agent with the upmost integrity, clear communication, and unbelievable commitment. I am proud to have had him sell my home, and prouder to now call him a friend.

Fantastic experience: Michael Hinds is absolutely fabulous when it comes to trying to buy a house. Makes you feel at ease, is very accommodating and hard working. Would %100 recommend to anyone looking to sell their home

Fantastic experience: Michael is a fantastic agent whose professionalism shines through from start to finish. He stepped up above and beyond our expectations. We are grateful for his time and service in bringing so many parties and tying details together so efficiently and smoothly. Michael's work is impressive and we are thankful.

Fantastic experience: Thorough, professional, patient and engaging. Jules was a pleasure to deal with, we heartily recommend him. He showed us through the house numerous times, and talked us through the process without pressuring us. We were helping our daughter buy her first home and were anxious to make sure it was a sound property. Jules patiently and answered many questions in detail from the building inspector and lawyer, and gave us detailed information. In the end we had full confidence to make a good offer and are very happy with the result. Thank you Jules!

Fantastic experience: Excellent, friendly and extremely hard working. When we decided to sell our house we talked to a number of agents, but Michael stood out by a long shot. He didn't win us over with false promises, he gave a very honest assesment and it was clear he was going to work tirelessly to sell our house. I was impressed by his hard work and he was very good at keeping us in the loop with regular updates. Our buyers were overseas which presented a number of challenges but Michael took these head on and worked all hours to secure us an offer. I couldnt recommend a person more. Michael is friendly and always makes time to talk. He made the process so much less stressful and we couldnt be happier that we chose him to help us with our biggest financial decision to date.

Fantastic experience: A hard working agent that listens to the vendor. Charming, courteous and knowledgeable he is certainly an asset at an open home. As a seller, we always felt listened to and able to make informed decisions. We had a lot of open homes and one off viewings, and Jules put the time in. He has a huge work ethic and loads of energy - well he is a volunteer fireman. In this market, houses don’t sell themselves, you want your agent to chase those leads, and get the sale at a price you’re happy with, not at any price, and Jules delivered. If you want an agent who is calm under pressure, will work hard, chase hard, listen and most importantly, close the sale at a price your happy with, choose Jules.

Fantastic experience: Fantastic! Jules was great to work with. Fantastic communication and worked hard to get the right people through our home. We couldn't have been happier with the end result. Listed and sold in a matter of weeks! I can absolutely recommend Jules.

Fantastic experience: Great experience. Jules! Where do we even begin? 10/10 experience from start to finish. Professional and personable, efficient and a great eye for detail. His knowledge and understanding of buyer behaviour, market trends and everything in between was very clear from the beginning and all I can say is that the proof is in the pudding! We are very happy vendors. Jules worked tirelessly for us; conducting many private viewings, being on site for building inspections when we were unavailable and we felt he went above and beyond in every aspect. His friendly approach and relaxed, down to earth personality won us over and I can hand on heart say he’s one of the few agents in our area who are operating with integrity at the moment. I don’t want to move again for a while, but you will be our first choice when we do. Biggest thank you Jules - you’ve turned what is often a tedious and stressful process into an exciting, positive experience. Ng

Fantastic experience: A Great Experience. Our experience with Mr. Hinds was fantastic. Michael was knowledgeable, professional, timely with his responses and skillfully managed various events that arose. From start to finish, he kept us updated and walked us through every step, coordinating with various parties smoothly. We would highly recommend him without any reservations, even for overseas stakeholders.

Fantastic experience: Strong communication and exceptional service. Salim is one of the best in the business! His strong communication skills made the sale of our property enjoyable. Salim has a good knowledge of the market which in return gives us great confident in his process. Salim is professional, keeps us informed every step of the way, simplifies the process and is a master negotiator. I can not express enough appreciation for Salim's hard work and the exceptional service he has provided me and my partner. His honest passion and commitment for his work and his clienteles is simply outstanding. He made us feel valued throughout the process even in this challenging market. I would highly recommend Salim. He is simply brilliant! We cant thank you enough and we intend to engage with Salim with our next property sale.

Fantastic experience: David - Friendly, honest and helpful agent who goes out of his way for his clients. After dealing with many agents in Wellington in our search for an apartment, we were so fortunate to find David. He was honest, professional, friendly and extremely helpful. We are not from Wellington, so our 18-year-old daughter was our representative at open homes. David was always available for video calling and after hours calls to answer any questions, make extra visits to measure things up, and even pick me up and drop me off at the airport when I made a mad dash visit to make that final decision. Even after the sale, David has continued to be at the end of the phone answering any questions we still have. I would recommend David to anybody wanting an honest, helpful and friendly agent who is not just doing his job, but ensuring a seamless purchase.

Fantastic experience: Great communicator. Caroline was great to deal with, she kept us in the loop throughout the whole process. Was very responsive, and accommodating for viewings.

Fantastic experience: Excellent service with great outcome! Charles did an outstanding job selling my apartment in the current market. Charles’s professionalism and dedication over exceeded my expectations. He throughly understood my situation and got the job done in minimal time. Can’t thank him enough.
