2021 Testimonials

 

I chose Marc and Wendy as I had sold with them previously and found them to be great. My experience from start to finish has been great. I find Marc and Wendy to be very knowledgeable, friendly honest and helpful. They made the slightly scary process of selling my home a lot less scary.
- Melissa Boyce (39 Manrere Street) November 2021

Marc & Wendy sold my previous 2 properties successfully.They gave me exceptional service then so I did not consider contacting anybody else. Despite numerous flyers in the letterbox at the property from Ray White & Harcourt's who sold properties next door and nearby I wanted to stay loyal to Marc & Wendy. I was concerned they may not list in Rolleston so I was thrilled when they said Yes.
Marc & Wendy always deliver a great result and provided first class service once again. They were very patient and tolerant throughout the whole process and kept in regular contact with progress on the conditions being met ie. builders report, valuer. I really appreciated their knowledge and determination to ensure everything came together smoothly.
- Kathleen Tarpey-Ward (8 Lydiard Drive) November 2021

The number one difference is clearly the large amount of money saved on commission and marketing cost. Other real estate agents told us that we would lose more on the sale price than we would save on the commission, but we are absolutely convinced that it wasn't the case as we got several high offers in which clearly the buyers had offered their maximum price, with the top ones exceeding our highest hopes. The sale was extremely quick (10 days after listing, only two open homes) which was another bonus. We were extremely pleased with the professionalism and attention to details Marc and Wendy demonstrated in every step of the process. As we were interested in another property they were promoting, we saw how they manage their open homes and had never seen such quality of service before. In summary, we highly recommend Total Realty and particularly Marc and Wendy.
- Janett and Lionel Ehinger (14 Oldham Crescent, Halswell) October 2021

We had 2 primary reasons 1. In our very first meeting, Marc and Wendy showed genuine interest in building a relationship with us and while having a friendly conversation, ensured that they asked the right questions to gather all the required details. 2. The low commission rate of Total Realty
With Marc and Wendy you get what they say - "friendly and professional". From the very first meeting, they showed genuine interest in building a relationship with us and were always friendly, professional, prompt and helpful.
- Sudheendra Pulla and Neha Vargante (39 Sholto Duncan Creescent, Halswell) October 2021

Marc and Wendy were awesome. Professional, helpful and great to work with. Very pleased with my decision to go with them.
- Michelle MacNab (11 Hamill Road, Halswell) September 2021

Mark and Wendy were amazing!! Answered any questions we had and got us the best outcome. Exceeded all expectations.
- Kerrie Brown (24 Brian Keogh Lane) September 2021

We choose Total Realty because Wendy and Marc were familiar with the area and we liked the idea that two agents would be at a very busy open home. Being inexperienced with anyting to do with real estate it was important that our first meeting with Wendy and Marc gave us the confidence to put our property in their hands. They impressed with their confidence,knowledge and helpful presentation at our first meeting. Last but not least we liked the low commission Total Realty offered.
Our experience with Total Realty overall was efficient, professional and with us very patient.

Great communication and interaction. Took a lot of the pressure off. Made you very comfortable right from the start.
- Michelle Hargreaves (20 Ernest Gray Place, Halswell) July 2021

Marc and Wendy made that process nice and easy. Great communication. Lovely friendly couple.
- B and J Mitchell (10 Capil Court) July 2021

It was very easy, everything was explained in detail, we felt well supported, we received top quality service, and a fantastic selling price. Thank you so much.
- Rachel and Regan Wood (24 Poulson Street) June 2021

Marc and Wendy are very professional and hard working honest people will highly recommend them to anyone.
- Shalendra and Maina Kumar (99a Lancewood Drive, Halswell) May 2021

There were several reasons we chose Marc and Wendy:
1. They extensively knew the area in which the property is located
2. No hard sell - just a chat making us feel extremely at ease
3. We always choose the best of 3 prices - but felt that this was not needed with Marc and Wendy
4. We felt we could trust them
5. The offer of 2 agents working for us oppose to 1

Marc and Wendy took the stress out of the open day for us - we were slightly panicking because we suddenly had an out break of ants (never happened before) due to the hot weather. Marc took it upon himself to sweep the area before opening our doors to the public. They also monitor the walk throughs for security reasons. They provided all the necessary information to ensure that the open home was successful - example removing dishcloths and ensuring no damp towels etc. They also ensured that we received a quick sale - within 10 days of listing

It was a relief to deal with a company who was not doing a hard sell. It was a case of if you want us to work for you - then get in touch - we will not be chasing you. We constantly receive a high amount of cold calls regarding selling our property which can be annoying. Careful consultation was provided about the commission and savings that could be achieved including how they would market our property - all sounded excellent and showed the extent of their extensive experience within the property market industry - we have already started to recommend your services to friends and family - thank you for everything
- David and Elaine Madges (45 Longspur Avenue, Wigram) March 2021

We were referred by friends at the bowling club initially then did some research by going to open homes Marc and were selling and liked their flair and interest in potential buyers,.
Our experience was like taking ‘ A walk in the park ‘ From get go we felt our home was in great hands with Marc & Wendy , anything we did not fully understand was followed up by email in great detail which was fantastic communication. They are both a credit to Total Realty .

- Laurie and James Gould (10 Arkwright Place, Halswell) March 2021

We chose Total Realty because of Marc and Wendy. We had seen them in action at a number of open homes and were impressed with their Halswell knowledge. Also, the commission rate helped our decision.

Marc is excellent at running open homes, and talking with potential buyers. He sets just the right tone - is friendly and interested, but not pushy. We liked the way he remembered potential buyers from previous houses he had sold, who came to our open homes. When it comes to knowledge of the market, previous sales and attention to detail, Wendy is the most amazing real estate agent we have ever worked with. Previous agents we have sold with had secretaries and personal assistants as they were too important to bother themselves with details. Wendy, however communicated directly with us brilliantly throughout the sale of our house and thought of absolutely everything. We are very grateful to her for making the process so easy. We like the way Marc and Wendy work so well together as a team.
- Amy and David Vinnell (37 Ishwar Gandar Boulevard, Halswell) March 2021

This is the second house that Mark and Wendy have sold for us with only one open home required! A fast and efficient service and again we got a good purchase price for our home. Wendy is very thorough with the legal side of things and I felt informed throughout the process. Thanks again!
- David and Jasmine Warren (5 Marcella Gardens, Halswell) February 2021

Had previously used them to sell my Mum's property and were very impressed with the service.
Marc and Wendy made the selling of my Auntie's property very easy, they were awesome to deal with and would highly recommend.
- Megan Woolford (3/20 Oakhampton Street, Hornby) February 2021

We had previously met Mark and Wendy at another house sale they were managing. They left a good impression with us and hence we decided to contact them to help us sell our property. Total Realty was also able to provide the same level of marketing and support as other real-estate firms but at a much lower cost.

Selling our property with Total Reality made the whole process very easy. Mark and Wendy were great to deal with, were very professional and achieved us a great result.

- Louise Beer and Phillip Daw (24 Whincops Road, Halswell) February 2021

I chose Total Realty because of 2 factors. The price of selling a house and the agents Marc/Wendy. I had bought a house through them a year ago and found them extremely professional.

Marc and Wendy are extremely professional and personable real estate agents. And on top of that they are two very lovely people. Excellent communication, hard working, attention to detail and a commitment to getting the best price. An outstanding result. Thank you Marc and Wendy.
- Jonathan Crampton (9 Christie Lane, Wigram) January 2021

 

2020 Testimonials

 

The impression Marc and Wendy gave us was the most genuine. Fast, easy, informative, happy.
- Yit Ling Teh (31 Bradwell Crescent, Halswell) December 2020

We did a lot of research (online, word of mouth, facebook etc.) Marc and Wendy are Halswell locals, they know the market and they are successful. They aren't always 'selling' for example I have seen Marc comment on people's posts on the Halswell Community page who are looking for advice around selling on their own and the comments are always helpful and supportive, they aren't trying to push their services they just come across like down to earth people who want the best for everyone and that is something we love about Marc and Wendy.

There isn't enough time in the day to explain how unbelievably incredible Marc and Wendy are. Above and beyond doesn't even slightly come close to the work they put in. We were working with two homes and short deadlines, Wendy chased LIM's, investigated things with EQC and the council, they did so much work that isn't necessarily what they normally do and it was so so so appreciated. The communication was amazing, we were always in the loop, they were always available, they calmed our nerves when it was needed and explained everything so you understood every step of the process, it really feels like a weight is taken off your shoulders and you are in a team when you are working with Marc and Wendy. They are professional, honest, reliable and take so much pride in their work. I could write rave reviews about them all day!

It was an incredible experience teaming up with Marc and Wendy, I can't recommend them enough.

- India and Zeke Bell (45 Patterson terrace and 147 Halswell Junction Road, Halswell) December 2020

Great experience, Marc & Wendy were awesome. Job well done.
- Kimberley and Andrew Lyell (16 Bouler Court, Longhurst, Halswell) December 2020

Have dealt with Marc and Wendy before, we really like their manner. We had the best selling experience we have ever had, very little stress, great sensible advice and felt they where working in our best interest.
- Susan and John Sell (3 Crocus Lane, Aidanfield, Halswell) Decmeber 2020

We have bought from Wendy and Marc before and found them easily approachable and friendly so it was an easy decision to go with Total Realty again. Always communicating and reassuring about little issues that may arise in the selling process. Overall, a really good experience to sell with them.
- Marc and Crala Plato (71a Norwood Street, Beckenham) November 2020

Marc & Wendy were brilliant from start to finish. They kept in touch every step of the way and worked with me to achieve a great result in a short time. Can’t recommend them enough.
- Nicole Hunt and Janine Hunt (57 Packard Crescent, Longhurst, Halswell) November 2020

After an internet search I shortlisted 3 real estate agencies that I wanted to talk to. Total Realty made that list because the agency's fees were very competitive and reasonable. However, in the end, I chose Marc and Wendy rather than the company. At our first meeting they were open, organised, honest and friendly and did a great sell without exaggerating or being pushy. They introduced themselves and told me what they could do for us. They certainly delivered on that. I did meet with agents from other agencies but discounted them prior to the appraisal stage because they came across as untrustworthy, their commission fees were also a lot higher than Total Realty. In the end Marc and Wendy won on the basis of their honesty and personalities.

Without exaggerating they were the best agents I have ever worked with to date and I would work with them again without hesitation. They made selling really easy and worked hard to get us the best price possible for our property. They provided excellent service, were open, honest and excellent communicators. As we live outside of Christchurch, communication was key for us. Marc and Wendy kept us up to date on every detail. They really listened to us as Vendors and gave us some really good solutions to help us achieve our selling goals. They were also very realistic and honest and kept us grounded. We really appreciated their advice.
- Charmaine Satchy (28 Riverton Terrace, Westalke, Halswell) October 2020

Marc and Wendy were friendly and professional. They have excellent knowledge of the real estate business and the Halswell area, and they were committed to maximising their expertise in order to gain the best outcome for us.
- Shelagh Powell (4 Annies Lane, Aidanfield) October 2020

We initially chose Marc and Wendy for the lower commission rate offered by Total Realty in comparison to Harcourts/Bayleys etc. Then the enthusiasm shown by Marc and Wendy for our home. Combined with their very good knowledge we had confidence that our home would have the best chance of a smooth sale. Marc and Wendy were in constant contact throughout the process and provided very good advice around preparing the home for sale, market comparisons and best sales strategies. We felt comfortable discussing options with them. We also found Marc and Wendy very professional through the handling of the offer process. They were good at telling us what we needed to know to ensure we could make the best decision through the offer and sales process.
- Lesley and Kyle Earnshaw (57 Bradwell Crescent, Halswell) October 2020

We received a consistently generous amount of communication from agents with a tremendous amount of experience of the market we lived in. They made things go as smoothly as possible. We were satisfied with the outcome and would recommend Marc and Wendy to anyone looking to sell on the Halswell area.
The business model saves us fees but it also incentivizes great service as the agents are better rewarded for their work. In particular, we appreciated the generous amount of communication provided by Marc and Wendy and their experience in the industry made things go as smoothly as possible.
- Kristine and Lilly O'Brien (2/461 Halswell Road, Halswell) September 2020

We really enjoyed Marc and Wendy’s honesty and clarity throughout the process.
- Valerie and William Martyn (19b Arkwright Place, Halswell) September 2020

Professional, efficient service, cheaper fees.
- Danzhao Wang (10 Hillbourne Street, Longhurst, Halswell) August 2020

Excellent service. I have not sold a house or understand much about the process. Marc and Wendy were very patient and accommodating. Reasonable rates and both seemed very dedicated and competent.
- Opal Grainger (26 Blankney Street, Hornby) August 2020

We chose Wendy and Mark because they are local and know the market. The number of signs selling other properties is encouraging as it indicates popularity for the company - people trust in Total Realty.
Mark and Wendy were absolutely fabulous! Right from the first meeting we knew they were the right people to sell our home. They were unpretentious and honest. They followed protocol and were professional in all situations for the purchasers and for us as the sellers. We enjoyed their sense of humour too! Thank you so much for all your work.
- Amy & Fernand Kenel (65 Westlake Drive, Halswell) July 2020

- Crystal and Brent Trumper (19 Hillbourne Street, Longhurst, Halswell) June 2020

I saw Wendy & Marc in action when I was looking at property previously and was impressed with them. also the 1.25% is very attractive.
They were very helpful and very professional, they were in touch regularly throughout the process, even after we had accepted an offer they supported right through to it going unconditional. Their process worked so well I had fantastic offers within two days of my first open home.

- Katie and Mark Shand (11 Glovers Road, Halswell) June 2020

Marc and Wendy know the property market in Halswell so well and the commission is more reasonable than most of the other real estate companies in Christchurch. We really liked the strategies Marc and Wendy use to sell a property. They were very organised, professional and really knew their stuff!
We couldn't fault Marc and Wendy and would love to work with them again. They know the Halswell market so well and are very knowledgeable about everything to do with property! Marc and Wendy were very organised, professional and kept us informed every step of the way. We are extremely happy with the price they got for our property and would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone.

- Levana and Stephen Jackson (151 Wales Street, Oaklands, Halswell) June 2020

-Megan and Will Silcock (1/16 Hamill Road, Longhurst, Halswell) May 2020

We had a great experience dealing with Marc and Wendy who explained things in a very simple way.Great communication.
- Name and adrees withheld

Initially chosen for the low real estate commission then after Marc and Wendy went through everything with us at the initial consultation they easily earnt our trust with their honesty and way in which everything was properly explained. They came across confident but also explained the process which would need to be taken if things didn’t go to plan which we really appreciated.

We really appreciated Marc and Wendys transparency right from the initial consult. We really liked that fact that they delivered all the information we needed properly and didn’t just ‘skim over’ things. This was particularly important to us as this was the first time we have sold a house. We appreciated that Marc and Wendy would be working all hours to get the information they needed and were very focused on making sure this information was correct for not only us but the buyer as well. On top of all of this their personalities are just so easy to work with and made it really exciting to sell. We were confident all the way through and they sold our house quicker than we could ever imagine! They have continuously been in contact with us during the covid changes to ensure we have all the information we need which has been above and beyond what we would’ve expected. We would absolutely recommend Marc and Wendy to all and couldn’t be happier with the house selling process. Our dog was also very fond of them which gave a big tick from us straight away :D
- Kimberley Neale and Michael Henderson-Rauter (26 George West Square, Wigram/Halswell) April 2020

We were very impressed with Marc and Wendy. They made selling our home look really easy and were always very professionally and most helpful. They took all the worry away away from us throughout the entire process. We would have no hesitation recommending them to others, they make a fantastic team. Thanks guys.
- Henricus & Rosina Van Ravenstein (35 Marsack Crescent, Halswell) April 2020

We loved Marc and Wendy’s enthusiasm and professionalism. They really know the Halswell area and we didn’t feel like we were being over sold. The strategy for selling our house was perfect for the market conditions.
Marc and Wendy were fantastic to deal with. Their communication was superb and we were well informed through out the whole process.
- Name and address withheld

Marc & Wendy have a lot of signs throughout Halswell so my thought was that they have this area covered which is good. Also the cost structure with Total Realty is good and well explained.
Marc & Wendy were lovely, very helpful in seeing we got all the correct info to the right people and kept in touch during the whole process. We were also trying to get confirmation over the lockdown period and they got it all sorted! Would definitely choose them again if buying or selling.

- Carolyn Marshall & Clive Morris (187a Wales Street, Oaklands, Halswell) April 2020

Honest, upfront people. Selling a property should be an enjoyable experience, and it was. Listened to what I wanted and delivered with interest.
- Gareth Jenkin (1/76 Amyes Road, Hornby) March 2020

Found Marc and Wendy to be very lovely don't push people into wanting the property found them very laid back and easy to deal with.
- Roy and Maureen Manewell (61 Patterson Terrace, Westlake, Halswell) March 2020

We purchased our property through them, remembered that they were very thorough and enthusiastic about what they do. Thought it would be great to represent ourselves to sell our house this time.
Everything was crystal clear and well explained. Marc and Wendy were excellent at talking to people in a right way and right time. Everything went very smoothly because of their efficient and effective work culture they have built over their career.
- Jung Hee Ha and Alex Park (20 Salmond Street, Hoon Hay) March 2020

Marc and Wendy were very transparent about the entire process, and gained our trust from the start. The other agency we consulted kept trying to push the auction option on us, even when I explained that they would be first time buyers, using Kiwisaver, which would make an auction more difficult for them, as Marc and Wendy had explained to us. The cost saving was obviously a major decider for us as well.
Marc and Wendy have a wealth of experience between them and made everything clear from the start. We had 7 offers on our house, only had to have one open home and were very happy with the price we got for our home. They kept us informed at every step and were helpful in advising about the home we purchased as well.

- Margot Hall & Antonio Delgado (43 West-Watson Avenue, Hillmorton) March 2020

Wendy and Marc were wonderful to deal with, so impressed with their team work and professionalism making the selling process very easy. Sold house after first open home viewing. They made the whole process extremely easy and wouldn't hesitate to recommend them. Thank You.
- Linda & Ronald Woods (3 Rosario Place, Aidanfield, Halswell) February 2020

Marc & Wendy gave us first class service in 2013 when we sold our other property so did not consider using anybody else to sell Greenaway Street. They are the best and they proved it again!!
Exceptional, first class service. Excellent communication.
We are ecstatic with such a speedy result. Great, clean offer at our first and only open home. Nobody could do that only Marc & Wendy. We are happy for you to put that on your website because it is true!!
- Kath Tarpey-Ward and Des Ward (4 Greenaway Street, Longhurst, Halswel) January 2020

We chose Marc and Wendy due to recommendations and due to the price bracket the property was gauged in, the 1.25% commission was more cost effective than alternative agencies.
Marc & Wendy were so easy to deal with. They explained everything regarding the whole selling process, clearly & concisely. They were both very pro active and worked hard to ensure we sold the house after the fist open home viewing, keeping us informed every step of the way. The whole process was extremely swift!
You cannot improve on perfection. We are extremely grateful the sale went through so quickly and with minimum distruption. Thank you :)

- Kevin & Jennifer Perrell (13 Hindess Street, Oaklnads, Halswell) January 2020

We purchased the house from Marc and Wendy. Great professionality and efficiency. Very clear information about what to do and when. Very good dealing skills when dealing with the purchaser and vendor.
- Vladimiro Cesari (1 Claude Hendry Lane) January 2020

Marc & Wendy sold my last house and I was happy with the job they did, and would happily use them again.

We had such a good experience 8 years ago when we bought our first home from Marc and Wendy we couldn't think of anyone we would rather work with to sell our home with.
Working with Wendy and Marc was fantastic. It was so streamlined, from the first meeting we knew what to expect. Their humor, honesty and flexibility go a long way when you are trying to sell your house with 2 young children and a 3rd on the way. The open home debriefs were informative, and the follow up on any leads was timely. We sold our house very quickly and at a competitive price for what the market was offering.
- Heather & Michael Stevenson (39 Halswell Junction Road, Halswell) August 2019

It was so easy - Wendy and Marc are so professional and know exactly how to market and sell houses. We were so impressed with working with them and they made the selling process so easy. We got more money for our property than we expected and also appreciate them bringing up a protected tree on our site before we went to market so we could get it sorted out before any offers were presented - we really appreciate how hard they worked for us to get the sold sticker. We are so grateful.
We chose Marc and Wendy because my sister lives in Halswell and recommended Marc and Wendy to us with their great sales record and also the low fees.
- Natasha and Daniel Lindsay (38a Hineloa Street, Spreydon) July 2019

I chose Total Realty for two reasons - one...reasonable fees. Secondly I had 3 agencies come around to appraise the property and Marc and Wendy were head and shoulders above the rest in terms of their professionalism, enthusiasm, willingness to share information about how the fee structure works and already had information about my house to hand when they came to meet me...which none of the other agencies did.
I felt if they could sell themselves, then they could sell my home. They had a great feel for the market in our area.
- Grainne Clinton (38 Wales Street, Halswell) June 2019

Despite the competitive agent fees, the service we received is extremely higher than we expected. Marc and Wendy will working through with us since the beginning with excellent service, leave us with nothing to worry at all.
I always heard good feedback from friends and community for Total Realty. We went to few open homes of Marc and Wendy when we were the purchaser in the past, we really appreciated the service they delivered. Therefore, when we selling our home first time, we decided to contact Marc and Wendy, and made the right decision with no disappointment.

- Shuangge Zhao and Bin Zhang (5 Dahlia Drive, Wigram) June 2019

Marc and Wendy were easy to work with, they communicated well, and were easy to contact with any issues or questions. I was someone who was on the same page, without paying high fees.
- Name withheld

I couldn't fault Marc & Wendy, their friendly professional attitude, knowledge of the market and the way they explained everything. I was kept in touch along the way which wasn't long as they had an offer after only 8 days and one open home. This was achieved by setting a realistic price and pointing out things that needed attention. I would highly recommend them to anyone wanting to sell. I chose them because they came highly recommended by a friend and the company's realistic commission rate.
- Kevin McRae (107 William Brittan Avenue, Halswell) June 2019

We chose Marc and Wendy because of the number of properties they had for sale and how quickly they sold. Our neighbor used them and highly recommended them. Very impressed with the professionalism and excellent communication. They were friendly and easy to deal with. Nothing was a problem. We have sold many properties over the years and this was one of the best experiences.
- Brian and Julie Lewis (25 Eaglesome Avenue, Halswell) May 2019

We were aware of Total Realty as our son had recently bought a property marketed by Total Realty. Both Marc and Wendy were very efficient and well organised. At all times we were confident that the result would be the best that could be achieved. The end result was more than we expected.
- Carol and Warren Jenkin (30 Fern Drive, Halswell) April 2019

I know Marc and Wendy and I know they do a great job especially selling in Halswell. Excellent service, couldn’t fault the experience. Great communication and found a buyer in first 2 weeks
- Alan & Jodyanne Lover (84 Balcairn Street, Halswell) March 2019

We visited one of their other open homes to see what they were like and wanted a low commission company. Marc and Wendy were round for a appraisal within a couple of days.
Only took one open home to get multi offers which were above our expected price. Very easy to deal with and would happily use again. Five stars.
- Sam Kerrigan (31 Tongariro Street, Halswell) March 2019

Our first experience with Total Realty was when we bought our home, with Marc and Wendy being the agents and we heard/read that the vendor saved a lot of money, due to the lower commission rate, which appealed to us! :
Marc and Wendy are experienced professionals and we felt safe selling our home with them. They are friendly and approachable, happily answered all our questions and explained things well. We were absolutely delighted with the fabulous photographs, taken to market our property and which we later heard, are what grabbed our buyers attention. We also greatly appreciated the extra effort given, to assist our buyer with his insurance, ensuring a smooth selling and buying process. Just as a little footnote; we are both mindful about the waste of resources and the impact of this on our environment. Thank you for finding ways to market properties effectively, while also minimising waste of materials. Thank you so much Marc and Wendy. You have enabled us to take the next steps down our pathway. :)

- Michael and Carole Fursdon (44 Dickson Terrace, Hornby) March 2019

We found Marc and Wendy went beyond all expectations in selling our house. The service was exceptional and we could not expect any more.
No suggestions you can’t improve on what they did for us and how everything was so easy. There’s a lot of work going on behind the scenes which they did to make it such a carefree time with no stress whatsoever.
- Susanne and Neil Heine (9 Patterson Terrace, Halswell) February 2019

Total Realty are doing well in the area of sale, this was the initial reason for getting an appraisal from Marc and Wendy. After getting appraisals, Marc and Wendy really stood out.
We had issues in regards to lawyers from purchasers and building issues. Marc and Wendy supported 100% with this. Could not have asked for a better team.

- Megan Ireland & Benjamin Mulholland (7 Cable Lane, Halswell) February 2019

Great team, great presentation, excellent communication. 5 stars.
- Lex and Kay (5 Old Red Barn Road, Halswell) January 2019

Marc and Wendy are not just experts in the housing market but they both understand people. In selling our house not only did Total Realty save us over $40,000 in Commission, but Marc and Wendy’s mastery resulted in a perfect home for our happy buyers and a great result for us to move on.
Highly recommended and have had excellent results before with Total Realty. The savings on commission fees paid is a main factor.
All your agents we have sold with acknowledge how wonderful their boss is, the office staff and Company are to work with!!! Very special, very rare - well done!
- Murray and Di (243b Sparks Road, Hoon Hay) January 2019

We had planned to get Total Realty (they had sold the house next door) and an agent from Ray White around to have a chat. We had Total Realty around first and decided we would go with Marc & Wendy, we were impressed with the info they provided. There was plenty of communication from the agents throughout keeping us informed after viewings, they were easy to liase with. This was the type of process we prefer; keeping it simple and honest.
- Lois and Clive Godfrey (12 Hurunui Street, Cracroft) January 2019

We chose Marc and and Wendy for their enthusiasm, experience and competence, plus the low commission. Team Marc and Wendy offer an exceptional service, doing whatever it takes to get the job done. You really feel they are in your corner come what may. Wouldn’t hesitate to use them again!

- Emma & Noel Rogers (35 Greenwich Street, Halswell) November 2018

We purchased the property through Total Realty, Marc and Wendy, in 2015. They were professional and went the extra mile with our purchase. The sale of our property was a difficult one, which presented a number of challenges. Without Wendy's attention to conclude some outstanding matters on behalf of our overseas buyer, we would not have had a satisfactory outcome to our sale. Both Marc and Wendy were very supportive and exceptionally good communicators throughout the process.
- Isabelle and Antony Stackhouse (3 Balcairn Street, Halswell) October 2018

Wendy and Mark were so personable and assured us of a positive outcome. Their appraisal was professional but not over the top. We knew straight away that Mark and Wendy would get the result we wanted. And yes our home was under offer from the first open home! Our neighbours house was on the market before ours and 11months later it is still on the market. Should have gone to ..........!

Marc & Wendy sold Mum & Dad's property for us and we were extremely happy with the way they guided us through the sale, they are the reason we came back to Total Realty. Marc & Wendy have sold two properties for us, they both sold on the first open home. We were guided through each step of the sale with ease which made the experience stress free.

- Patricia and Michael Carmody (34 Cobra Street, Halswell) April 2018

Marc and Wendy were friendly and very approachable, but most of all they had current sales experience and knowledge in our area. The 1% fee is fair. Any more is unreasonable given the changing real estate market and introduction of competitors such as Trade Me.
- Michael Wilson (8 Birdling Place, Halswell) April 2018

Recommended , and really liked them when I met up. So happy with my selling experience , very professional, friendly and great communication! Absolutely recommended.
- Lisa Wisse ( 124A Cobham Street, Spreydon) March 2018

Wendy and Marc sold my mums home and they made it so easy for us that to use them to sell ours was an easy choice. If all Real Estate Agents (in NZ) conducted their business as Marc & Wendy do, then the industry in general would be held in much higher regard.

2017 Testimonials

 

We have family and friends who have successfully sold and purchased through Marc and Wendy who rated them highly.
We had a great experience with Marc and Wendy. Very pleasant to deal with and they work as a very effective team. We were so pleased to get an offer after our one-and-only open home! We were also very pleased with the photos of our house, the photographer they use does a fantastic job. Would definitely recommend Marc and Wendy to others.

- David and Lauren Wallace (5 Ernest Gray Place, Halswell) December 2017

We have used Marc and Wendy to sell a few properties before, and have always enjoyed working with them.
- Aimee and Shanan Patchett (22 Lockwood Street, Halswell) December 2017

We had been to previous open homes where they were the agents and liked the way they operated and their knowledge and approach to selling. We felt we would get better value and effort from having two agents. We would also save a fortune in commission fees.
Marc and Wendy were knowledgeable and gave us realistic expectations of the current market and the kind of buyers we would expect to get. They were very good at collecting information from us to be sure that everything was on offer from the first open home. They also left feedback after open homes and had a plan for how to encourage buyers by lowering our price to achieve a multi offer situation which then led to the sale of our property at a higher price. Perfect.
- Tash and Blair Jarvis (274 Lyttelton Street) December 2017

Marc and Wendy did such an amazing job selling our first home. Wonderful service, great communication (being based in Auckland and selling in ChCh), achieved a great sale price.
- Thomas Grogan and Anna Burchall (17 Whitnall Street, Halswell) November 2017

Marc and Wendy were honest (I felt) up front and didn't push themselves onto me. There was no pressure. They allowed me to make my own choice. Exceptional service.
- Lynn-Marie Borlase-Ballantyne (143 Wales Street, Halswell) November 2017

I chose Total Realty as I had previously had a good experience with Marc and Wendy when I purchased my first property with them.
I liked Marc and Wendy's honest, straight up approach and felt comfortable, knowing that there wasn't any bells and whistle's and over the top sales pitch. They deliver exactly what they say there going to. They constantly kept in touch with me in regards to Trade Me report's, purchaser feedback. When needing to communicate, they always promptly replied. My experience with Total Realty is that in a time where finance's are tight and selling a house is an expensive exercise, Total Realty have a very reasonable commission compared to other agents. Yet the experience I had with Total Realty was as good if not better, saving me thousands of dollars. The service is just as good.

- Estella Robb ( 3/37 Torrens Road, Hillmorton) October 2017

They are great sellers in the Halswell area, are very easy to deal with and very much on top of their game
- Aaron Kerr (70 Balcairn Street, Halswell) September 2017

Marc & Wendy have made selling my property so easy and I'm thrilled with the sale price. They gave me great advice & were very thorough to set it all up ready to market which meant everything. It went smoothly for both me and the buyers and I'm happily recommending them to everyone I know who's thinking of selling.
- Valerie Weir (87A Wilsons Road South, Saint Martins) September 2017

Very professional team, very sympathetic to our position of dealing with a deceased estate. Very thorough and completely honest. Great follow up and explanation of how the house would be marketed, very helpful with EQC matters, no hidden costs outlining everything up front.
A real pleasure to deal with, would use again and recommend to others.
- Terrance Courtney (45 Santa Rosa Avenue, Halswell) August 2017

Marc & Wendy got the house on the market on Tuesday and we had 3 offers by the end of Sunday - at the high end of expectations. Great to deal with.
- James and Rebekah Nimmo (51 Richmond Avenue, Halswell) August 2017

The 1% commission was a big reason. Also I had attended open homes in the past that Wendy and Marc had held and was impressed by their professionalism.
I was very impressed with the experience overall. I thought that I received a very good market appraisal of what my property was worth, excellent feedback from open homes, and excellent communication throughout the whole process. Wendy and Marc are a great team, I would use them again and would recommend them to anyone I know who was wanting to sell their house.
- Wesley Bonney (8 Lockwood Street, Halswell) July 2017

I had seen their signs around the area and I really liked Marc and Wendy, especially that they weren't pushy or manipulative but still got great results.
It was a very positive experience. We had two offers that we were very happy with the day after the open home. We were given good advice about what price to advertise it at and what method to use.

- Name and address withheld (Halswell) July 2017

We listed with Wendy and Marc after my daughter and her partner bought a house from an elderly couple in the neighbourhood, and we were impressed with the way they conducted themselves, their knowledge of the market in the area and ease of communication throughout the process.
They were excellent to deal with throughout the whole process. Their knowledge of the local market & their experience in guiding us in the marketing of the property, helping us to set a realistic asking price and not hyping up our expectations so we could make a sensible decision at a realistic price, that ultimately led to a sale that was good for both parties. A hassle free experience from start to finish. A very good and efficient team that I would recommend to anyone.
It was hard to fault any aspect of our experience with Marc and Wendy from Total Realty, excellent all round service.
- Brent Wilson (306A Halswell Road, Halswell) June 2017

I chose Marc and Wendy as I felt they were more knowledgable about the area. I found them to be very positive, easy to deal with and professional at all times. They were prompt with any queries.
- Deborah Rowse (12 Shamrock Place, Halswell) May 2017

We had missed a previous property marketed by Marc and Wendy and we liked the way they met all tenderers and spent time to explain the process and the winning bid. It was done very professionally and we appreciated the time they took.

The listing process was straight forward and the advertising was fresh and showed our home to the market in the best possible way. Wendy and Marc kept us informed of the progress and we sold in four weeks. Following the signing of the purchase agreement, they have continued to be intimately in the process.

We cannot think of any improvements - hard to exceed the current very high level of commitment, experience and can-do approach.
- Ian and Elizabeth Alsweiler (33 Greenwich Street, Halswell) May 2017

Marc and Wendy impressed us with their presentation and won us over. We liked the fact that they worked together to make things happen. We were pleased with the outcome and price that the house was sold for.
- Graeme and Diane Watson (64 Westlake Drive, Halswell) May 2017

- Yvonne and Timothy Borrill (2/19A Halswell Junction Road, Halswell) April 2017

After getting estimates from three other agencies and hearing that all had similar, and in some cases the same marketing and pricing strategies, we decided to list with Total Realty.
It was a very smooth process from start to finish, great communication and feedback was provided. At no stage did we feel any pressure as you always seem to with other agencies. Marc and Wendy gave a realistic view of the current market and dollar value of our property.

- Paul and Melissa Smith (16 James Hight Drive, Halswell) April 2017

This is the second house we have sold through Marc and Wendy. We chose them for their great service and great fees. The process was easy, hassle free, professional and we got a great outcome. Five stars.
- Haley and Michael Smith (127 Cobham Street, Spreydon) April 2017

- John and Susan Denton (18 Six Silvers Avenue, Halswell) March 2017

Marc and Wendy were easy to deal with and keep us in the loop all the way. We felt they were working for us to achieve the best result . Their appraisal was spot on for the market and was an honest one. We will be recommending them to anyone who is looking to sell a property.
- Donald and Toni Manson (114 Gilberthorpes Road, Hei Hei) March 2017

Team Marc and Wendy were professional and in a tough market came thru for us. Our solicitor was impressed with their meticulous attention to detail and promptness in getting relevant information thru to her in a timely manner.
- Ernest & Rosemary Crown (349D Hoon Hay Road, Hoon Hay) March 2017

They took a lot of worry of us. Couldn't be more helpful and friendly. Did a really good job for us. We've been singing their praises to our friends.
- Ngaire and Trevor Rigby (1 Claude Hendry Lane, Hoon Hay) March 2017

We liked the concept of Total Realty with the 1% commission. Also our friends had a great experience dealing with Marc and Wendy so we went with them on their recommendation.
Very professional. Everything about the marking of the sale of our house was explained very clearly. Advice was freely given in how to present the house to potential buyers and good estimates in the potential selling price.

We were more than satisfied with the service that Mark and Wendy gave us.
- Derek and Susan Meredith (47 Denise Crescent, Hornby) February 2017

We had an excellent experience. Marc and wendy were fantastic all the way through. Honest and upfront about everything and followed up on everything too.

We chose Wendy and Marc because of their good reputation and low commission.
- Melissa Pester & Kyle Went (5 Jefferson Close, Halswell) February 2017

Very easy to deal with, very helpful and worked around our needs. They were cheaper and did the same job as the others promised if not better!
The property sold in the first week for $40,000 over the "negotiation over" price.
- Nicola and Richard King (17 Jefferson Close, Halswell) February 2017

In our Halswell neighbourhood we've seen numerous houses with Total Realty, Team Marc and Wendy, signs up. Within a few weeks we saw "Sold" on these same signs. We were impressed by how rapidly these homes sold. We were also swayed by the 1% fee and given the high quality of service we received we would not hesitate in recommending Total Realty to others.

Marc and Wendy from Total Realty were excellent to deal with from the word go. They provided sound advice for marketing our house, how best to present the house, the process involved in the sale of a house (i.e. legalities of selling), as well as providing constant feedback about the status of the sale of the house. Marc and Wendy were great to deal with, and we appreciated their honesty and genuine concern for ensuring we had a positive outcome.
- Melanie and Paul Johnston (31a Nottingham Avenue, Halswell) February 2017

We chose Wendy & Marc as a good result was achieved previously for a neighbour. The commission was appealing compared with the 3.95% agents, and the interview went well. My feeling was that Marc & Wendy were good local agents with the ability to obtain offers and see these through to confirmation.

My experience was that Total Realty provided everything that is needed to market the property and secure a sale given the sophistication of and access to the internet our country now has. A 3.95% agent would have to achieve a significantly higher sale price to obtain the same return to the vendor and I think most purchasers would not want that
.
- Michael Day (86 Kaiwara Street, Hoon Hay) January 2017

We chose Wendy and Marc because of their experience, honesty, realistic commission rate, professional approach and sound strategy. I think their approach is the way of the future if people would only wake up and see the value they represent!
- Heather and Robert Wilson (5 Fintan Mews, Halswell) January 2017

Marc & Wendy are a really approachable "fun" couple to work with who know their business extremely well (especially the rules centered around EQC). That proved to make everything run very very smoothly. We cannot thank them enough for their professionalism and the high level of communication they provided. "They" made selling our first home of 26 years smooth and problem free, and we are grateful to them.

We chose Marc & Wendy because in our area most of the real estate signs we saw had Marc & Wendy on them! So we followed their progress with interest and discovered that their "hit rate" is very high! That coupled with them being recommended by neighbors and also the 1% fee was more than attractive to us regarding affordability. Wendy & Marc have a realistic view of the market which again helped us to go with them.

Any suggestions for improving our service? NO, keep doing what your doing and watch the other companies quiver with fear!
- Shona and David Farr (27 Fern Drive, Halswell) January 2017

Chosen because: The 1% comission which is not reflected in any less service than other companies.

- Brook and Adrian Moore (60 Kathleen Crescent, Hornby) May 2016

Well what seemed like a straight forward sale was blindsided by findings unknown to us about the property we are selling, But every step of the way Wendy and Marc have been very exceptional in managing the sale even going over and above expectations going the extra mile to make sure everyone was up to date and informed of the proceedings. Three extensions later and a lot of ground work undergone we had our sale. 10/10 would totally use again! Thanks.

Marc and Wendy are very professional. They have been selling for a long time not only through Total Realty but other agencies so they know all the in's and out's of the job. They weren't pushy like other agents and they did what was required in a good time frame when they had to visit or ring up. Everything was positive and they made you feel more relaxed if you were getting worried or didn't know something. Buying our other house (through another agency) wasn't a very good experience and Marc and Wendy guided us through this too as well as selling our house. The lovely phone calls and emails helped a lot. I don't know when they get any sleep!! They sold our house in a week. One open home only :-)
- Michelle and Todd Foster (84 Westlake Drive, Halswell) April 2016

Marc and Wendy are awesome agents, always in touch and always ready to help. I am so happy that they sold our house, and so fast! I would have no hesitation in recommending them.
- Marian Parkin (8 Bahama Place, Hornby) March 2016

Wendy and Marc work so well as a team - friendly, relaxed yet professional. Also the commission rate is very attractive and to have only one open day to achieve a sale is fantastic. They have my recommendation and I wish them well in the future.
Chosen: Simply Marc and Wendy's persona
Kate Page (41 William Brittan Avenue, Halswell) March 2016

A very good experience, both Marc and Wendy were exceptionaly friendly and approachable, they understood the needs of the seller and were happy to go out of their way to explain every aspect of the process. We would certainly recommend them to any other sellers and buyers They made the whole process as stress free and straight forward as possible. And the house sold on the first and only Open home!
Chosen because: Honest, good value, approachable, genuine, local experience, good information sharing.
- Names withheld (William Brittan Avenue, Halswell) March 2016

Experienced sales people combined with a low fee makes for great value. Have sold several times before with other agencies and can no longer see how the higher fees can be justified. Excellent performance. Post sale support from Wendy extremely professional. Thank you.
Chosen because: Combination of a recommendation based on previous performance of Marc and Wendy, plus the 1% fee.
- Todd Ward and Althea Ward (489 Halswell Road, Halswell) March 2016

Wendy and Marc made the selling of our home very easy and we had full confidence at all stages. They kept us informed during the process and updated us on the progress . We would certainly refer them to anyone selling their house.
Chosen because: Reviews from friends and observations of their signs locally. Word of mouth also .
- Shona and Roger Bewes (37 Stallion Avenue, Halswell) March 2016

A really easy experience, Marc and Wendy prepared us well for the sale process and got us offers that exceeded expectations in 4 days.
- (Details withheld, Hoon Hay) February 2016

As a buyer I felt extremely well represented by Wendy and Marc. Although they were working hard for the vendors they were very respectful and fair to us as buyers. Despite some challenges with regards to meeting the confirmation date Marc and Wendy were always very encouraging and reassuring. When we sell (in the distant future) we will be using Marc & Wendy to sell our home and to buy a new one. They are a great team and great people.
- Pete and Jess (4 Blakistan Place buyers) February 2016

They were highly recommended by neighbours, whose house they sold. Great teamwork, down-to-earth common sense attitude. Perfect advice re presentation and marketing. Communication excellent - they were there every step of the way - left no doubts. Very personable and always on hand for advice. Nothing short of a miracle that they found a new home just around the corner - almost too good to believe how it has worked out.
- "Sandy" Cardno (101 Patterson Terrace, Halswell) February 2016

Marc & Wendy did a great job. They got more than we hoped for. Would use them again and will recommend them.
- Kirsten and Scott (1/5 Gibbs Place, Halswell) February 2016

We met Wendy and Marc at open homes in the area and chose them due to their extensive knowledge of the Halswell market. They were fantastic. Will be recommending them to family and friends.
- (Details withheld, Halswell) February 2016

We had used Marc and Wendy before, found they suited our needs, and were happy with their service. We were given a definite date for marketing and a price guideline which was realistic. We had confidence that it would be handled professionally.
- Alison and Andrew (3/305 Selwyn Street) January 2016

My husband was determined to sell privately so after 10 weeks of no bites I convinced him to use a real estate agent, he was not keen but agreed. I got Marc & Wendy around and they gave us their appraisal and explained how they would market our property along with how much it would cost. We felt very comfortable with them straight away and signed up that night. Not only did they sell our home very quickly but we got more than what we were asking selling privately, they got us through the legal difficulties of selling (especially in Christchurch) through to handover of keys. If you are reading this and want to get a reliable agent that works for you then choose Marc & Wendy from Total Realty, they are fantastic and I would highly recommend them, more importantly my husband would.
We have seen their "For Sale" signs and notice they seem to move property fairly quick so I decided to use them on that basis.
- Tina and Brendon (3 Elmslie Grove, Halswell) January 2016

2015 Testimonials

 

Marc and Wendy are very friendly, approachable and have a good feel for the current market. They didn't try and pressure us but gave an honest appraisal that was in line with our own research. Professional and effective. Very competitive price and was successful in selling our last property.
- (Details withheld, Halswell) December 2015

We chose Total Realty firstly because of the 1% commission and secondly because Marc and Wendy live in the area and know it well. Also liked the shorter contract time.
Selling was a good experience. Didn't feel pressured into agreeing to a sale just so a sale was achieved and felt as if they were working for us and not the buyers which doesn't always happen. Also liked the cards left after open homes which told you how many had been through and feedback etc.

- (Details withheld, Halswell) December 2015

I chose Wendy and Marc because they seemed genuine and knew what they were talking about. I found that both Marc and Wendy easy to communicate with. They kept me informed and were very helpful.
- (Details withheld, Halswell) November 2015

I called into an open home viewing and was very impressed in the way Marc interacted with the visitors. I decided then that if and when I was to sell Marc would get my call. From the start a very thorough portrait of the Total Realty marketing and selling operation from Wendy left us in no doubt in our minds we had chosen a sharp team who carried us through the whole process right up to the eventual sale.
- Lesley and Max (34 Rydal Street, Hoon Hay) November 2015

We had previously tried to market privately. After a collapsed private sale, we decide to engage some professionals. We had decided we would try Marc and Wendy, after receiving a lot of positive feedback from previous clients. They were very responsive to our needs, and seemed to be the dominant player in the local market. We were overseas when the first open home occurred, and Marc and Wendy progressed offers with minimal input from us on holiday.
- Nicola and Ryan (43 Dunbars Road, Halswell) November 2015

Wendy and Marc are friendly, efficient and get the job done. I have recommended Total Realty to a number of people who have asked me "Who is your estate agent".
- Cheryl (105 Blankney Street, Hornby) October 2015

I noticed around the subdivision Marc & Wendy's for sale signs and I was interested so I googled them for more information and decided they were a good team to go with, I also liked the idea of a Team partnership.
They provided great service, great communication always emailing, texting, or calling as soon as I needed to know info. Very clear on what they offer and prices up front. Very detailed information on the open home notes for what we needed to know about who went through the home and the comments made. Very smooth and quick sale which is what we love.
- Kirsty and Jordan (23 Greenwich Street, Halswell) October 2015

Marc and Wendy were very helpful, upfront and supportive throughout the whole process and we were very happy with how it all went. It was a lot cheaper than other companies and we felt they actually had the most genuine and professional manner.
- Anna and Joshua(82 Somerfield Street, Somerfield) October 2015

We can't speak highly enough about Marc and Wendy. We are still buzzing about our sale as we never dreamed we would do so well. They made the entire process very easy. They are motivated, professional and such a pleasure to deal with. Highly recommend them to anyone thinking of selling.
- Kim and Jason (74 Patterson Terrace, Halswell) September 2015

I was comfortable with the agents, Wendy and Marc. The sale process was straightforward, photography was excellent, advertising was up quickly and open day went well. Dealing with the offers was well managed and I was satisfied with the result.
- David (7 Bolton Avenue, Spreydon) September 2015

Wendy and Marc were efficient and gave us good advice. They were good communicators and kept us involved in the process. Were extremely professional.
- Dennis (28 Patterson Terrace, Halswell) September 2015

Ours was quite a sticky situation and our house needed a lot of work done on it to get up to scratch. Marc & Wendy were booked in for our appraisal initially. Marc came round and give us some sound advice that I had requested from him. House now looks beautiful. The great advice and empathy from Marc when he came round for our appraisal with no pressure to decide was the turning point for us.
- Thomas and Jennifer (22 Balcairn Street, Halswell) August 2015

We used Marc and Wendy to sell our last home. Marc and Wendy are wonderful to deal with, we have no problem using them again or recommending them to others that are selling.
- Aimee and Shanan (6 Bargrove Close, Halswell) August 2015

Thanks again for another successful sale :)
- Mike and Toni (Staveley Street, Avonhead) July 2015

We put an offer in on a property with Marc and Wendy. Felt there was no need to go to another agency to market our property. Marc and Wendy were very helpful and informative while marketing our property. Their service is excellent with a friendly professional approach.
- Brian and Gail (65 Muir Avenue, Halswell) July 2015

Marc and Wendy were exceptional to deal with from start to finish. Thanks for making the sale of our home so easy!
- M & S (Blankney Street, Hornby) July 2015

Thanks so much to you and Marc for the great job you guys did!!! Will put you on our highly recommended list and look forward to working with you again in the future if we ever have the opportunity. You guys are great!!
- Jess (8 Oriana Cres, Hornby) July 2015

Efficient handling of all legal requirements, kept us up to date with progress and helped with unusual obstacles to the sale. Good quick feedback by email to any questions. Friendly and helpful people to deal with. They got a good price for the house for us.
- David (Awatea Road, Wigram) July 2015

It was a very friendly experience with no hassles and I was kept up to date when anything happened. My house was sold after the first open home with three offers presented. All up it took six weeks from the initial contact and moving out. I knew Marc & Wendy had sold a lot of homes in my area so knew they must be worth using.
- Colleen Treacy (9 Rosamund Place, Halswell) June 2015

Fantastic.....great marketing and advice. Exceptional sales team! Friend had used Marc & Wendy previously and came highly recommended. Thanks again for everything...being the liaison between myself and the purchaser for my emails with furniture for sale, keys etc. Incredible service considering the number of listings you have and only being 1%!
- Richard Annett (5 Penrith Avenue, Somerfield) June 2015

Many many thanks. A great result all around, will certainly be recommending you to anyone wanting to sell in ChCh. Found Total Realty a very professional real estate company with great communication from start to finish.
- Wayne and Dianne (54 Sparks Road, Hoon Hay) June 2015

Good market knowledge and positive "best price" attitude. Everything was made clear and understandable. Friendly service and, as said, positive attitude to getting best possible price. Very approachable, thank you.
- Megan and Scott (60 Fern Drive, Halswell) June 2015

Very professional and courteous at all times. Made some great suggestions about sale prices and presentation. Knew their stuff about EQC related issues in Christchurch. Kept us informed at all times. Good commission rates and friendly and helpful agents.
- Shirley & David (37 Sylvan Street, Middleton) June 2015

Marc & Wendy were not at all "pushy"..they let us take our own time to decide whether we wanted to list with them or not. They are very efficient and have all the i's dotted & the t's crossed!. Very prompt in coming back to us with any inquiries we may have had. We found the 1% commission attractive, and Marc & Wendy seem to be selling quite a few properties in Halswell, so know the market.
- Sharon & Russell (33 Parklea Avenue, Halswell) May 2015

All the steps in selling the house were very well explained. We were very pleased with the photographs taken of the property and with the advertising. We chose them as our daughter had used them and recommended their service.
- James and Dianne (12 Sioux Avenue, Wigram) May 2015

I chose Wendy and Marc as I was very impressed with at an open day I had attended. Marc and Wendy are very enthusastic, knowledgable and organised with their opendays. I would not hesitate to use them both again if we sell.
- Leanne (3 Owens Terrace, Upper Riccarton) April 2015

Marc & Wendy came & talked to me & their approach for the sale of my property fitted how I wanted my property marketed. I found them to be very honest & easy to talk to. It's been a difficult sale but I have been kept well informed every step of the way. I have found them both very approachable & have received great advice when I've needed it.
- Paula (9 Shanaway Close, Halswell) April 2015

We were very happy with the service provided. They were realistic with the property market, it showed that they had done there homework in regards to having all the eqc and insurance documents etc ready before the house went to market and saved time at sale time. We noticed as buyers that other agents never had this stuff ready when you asked. They were very friendly and kept in contact through out the sale procedure. They were very approachable people. We have used Total Realty before which we were happy with.
- Sarah and Aaron (19 Rearsby Drive, Halswell) April 2015

Our daughter and partner had used Marc & Wendy successfully and recommended them. Fast and prompt service - courteous and took time - no rushing. Quick response to telephone calls. Would recommend to friends.
- Ian and Francis (14 Oakview Lane , Cashmere) April 2015

What can we say, we were daunted by the whole process till we met Marc and Wendy! They made it an absolute breeze, the sales estimate was bang on, and it really felt like they were working very hard to get the best prize for us and definately gave us the quick sale we were after, selling it in under a week for a price we never thought we would get! We will definately be recommending Marc and Wendy and Total Realty!
We chose them because we had seen on TradeMe that they were selling properties in our area in no time, and we were after a quick sale.
- Simone and Sean (61 Dickson Crescent, Hornby) April 2015

We can't believe it all happened so quickly! Think even Marc & Wendy were a bit stunned! We had just the one open day with about 20 prospective buyers through and then received an offer early the next week. To cap it all off we had bought another property through Marc & Wendy by the end of that week.
We chose Total Realty because of the reasonable selling fees, recommended by friends, excellent marketing brochure, good photos on websites of other Total Realty properties for sale, helpful advice on presentation for open day and really listened as to how we wanted to sell our home - no pressure to auction.

- Marion and Gerald (9a Indira Lane, Cashmere) March 2015

Marc and Wendy are a great team; totally professional, no non-sense, friendly and sincere. Did an excellent job with my elderly Mums property.
- Irene (15a Kaiwara Street, Hoon Hay) March 2015

Selling my house with Total Realty was a very stress free experience. I found Marc and Wendy easy to deal with and they listened to what I wanted. I would recommend them to any of my friends and colleagues.
I chose Total Realty because of Marc and Wendy. I had met them several times before in other open homes and I found them to be very helpful and approachable. I enjoy dealing with them as they are not pushy sales people and every time I met them in an open home they were very relaxed and down to earth, which was very refreshing.

- Patricia (35 Barrowclough Street, Hoon Hay) March 2015

Always a good experience, no mucking around just do the job and have great results; couldn't be happier. Have used Wendy and Marc before, we like their methods and like the 1% fee.
- Dianne and Colin (10 Brookford Place, Westmorland) March 2015

I really liked Wendy and Mark. They made the process of selling very smooth. The commission rate was attractive and they kept everything nice and simple. I felt that it was very good value for money.
- Kerry (37a Branston Street, Hornby) March 2015

Very thorough e.g. collating all required paperwork. Excellent communication e.g. constantly updated with progress. Love the fact that from start to finish the process only took 6 days. Over delivered on price by 25K. Chosen because they are a trusted brand with proven success. Marc/Wendy no1 sales team at Total Realty.
- Rhys and Olivia (36 Bewdley Street, Spreydon) March 2015

We found Marc and Wendy to be professional and well organised, and were highly impressed by the service we received. They kept us informed throughout the process and delivered 3 offers all at the level we were hoping for, after only one open home.
We have seen Marc and Wendy work in our area, with open homes and on TradeMe. We believed they had a good grasp of what we needed (a quick sale for the best price), and 1% commission made it worthwhile using an agent rather than having a private sale
.
- Chelsea and Luke (33 Dominion Avenue, Somerfield) March 2015

Wendy and Marc were fantastic from the start right through to the finish. Their communication is outstanding and kept us informed through the whole process. They have a very friendly but honest approach and extremely professional. Other agents said we would not get a high price if we went with Total Realty - they couldn't have been more wrong, we achieved a fantastic price, more than we thought we would get.
We choose Total Realty mainly because of their commission fees but also because of Marc & Wendy's high amount of houses they have listed, particularly in the past year.
- Karen and Andrew (115 Kaiwara Street, Hoon Hay) February 2015

Marc and Wendy kept us informed all the time while the house was on the market either by email, phone and text. They were truthful and friendly. Lovely couple that we would definetly recommend to others.
- Julie and Mike (24 Westlake Drive, Halswell) February 2015

Marc and Wendy sold my previous property and we were impressed then with the service and the overall cost. It was a no brainer to go back to these two to sell our current home. They are a great team and made great efforts to facilitate this sale. We were always well informed, we received expert advice, and when the sale looked as if it would fail, Marc's negotiation skills made the difference in bringing the sale to fruition.
- Warren and Marie (8 Marymere Place, Hornby) February 2015

Wendy and Marc were great and kept us informed at all points. They also seemed to work harder to present well, eg in other companies' photos I've been looking at lately, there are clutter objects in the rooms. They went through with the photographer and removed/replaced them room by room so the rooms looked less cluttered in the pictures. I definitely feel our photos are superior to what it seems we would have got with other companies. We believe in the 'offers over' approach as the best way to market.
- Deb and Rex (79 Blankney Street, Hornby) February 2015

It was a real pleasure to meet you at the Dominion Street open home yesterday and have a quick chat about the property. I've met many agents and I found you were a 'breath of fresh air' as you were so open and friendly. 
- Lisa (from an open home) January 2015

They made the experience straightforward for us, gave us useful advice were encouraging, efficient. We were pleased with the outcome. We had confidence in the salespeople and felt they could achieve just as good a price as any other company.
- Alison and Andrew (9 Shamrock Place, Halswell) January 2015

Wendy and Marc were passionate about ensuring we made the most of the property to maximise interest and the advice and encouragement they gave us confidence that they would do all they could to ensure the best price
They kept us informed every step of the way and even gave back the unused advertising portion of the payment made - we have sold several houses in the past and never had that before! excellent !
- Isabel and Steve (6 Marsack Cres, Halswell) January 2015

Marc and Wendy were very professional right from our first meeting, and kept us up to date through the whole process.  Our neighbour was very pleased with them, and at our first meeting we felt comfortable selling with these guys. We don't have plans to sell again for a long time, however if that changed, we would definitely choose Marc and Wendy again.
- Charlotte (10 Burbank Drive, Halswell) January 2015
Chosen because: we sold a neighbours property

 

2014 Testimonials

 

I would not hesitate using Marc and Wendy again they both work to get good results. I was very happy with their advice for getting the house ready to sell.
- Chris (43 Ensign Street, Halswell) December 2014

I had been to some open homes that Marc and Wendy had and thought they were lovely people and easy to talk to. I found the process very easy and was kept fully informed of what was going on -would definately recommend.
- Michele Coad (38 Dunstan Crescent, Hornby) December 2014
Chosen because: previously seen at other open homes

We found Marc and Wendy to be highly professional and great to work with.  We were kept informed throughout the sale process and nothing was a problem.  We really appreciated the great job they did for us.
- Heath (19 McBeath Avenue, Hoon Hay) December 2014
Chosen because: we sold a neighbours property

I chose Wendy and Marc because they were partners and worked together on open homes. And of course the lower cost to sell. They were very positive people and helped me out a lot. Nothing was a problem. They helped me with presenting my home just right. No clutter, and advised what to move. They explained everything to me, and told me it was entirely up to me re; setting price and way to sell. Gave me list of houses around me that had sold, and what they sold for. They live in the area and know it. Will recommend to others. Many thanks Wendy and Marc.
- Carol (4 Edward Stafford Avenue, Halswell) December 2014

Highly recommend Total Realty. House sold after 2 open homes for above asking price. Why pay more than 1% with others when you get the same service ?? Thanks Total Realty
- Randell (13 Patterson Terrace, Halswell) November 2014

I would highly recommend Total Realty to people, some think 1% commission therefore less service than another agency with 4% commission. That is so not the case and you get such excellent value for money, regular and honest communication and an agency that really knows its stuff esp in regards to EQC issues. They had far better knowledge of the Halswell market, were honest and straight up to deal with and were very professional in their manner and dealings
- Kirsten (47a McMahon Drive, Halswell) November 2014

Really personable agents who filled us with confidence that they could sell our house. Everything was straightforward and honest. Personality of Marc and Wendy played a large part. In addition there was nothing that the other companies could offer that they couldn't.
- Michelle (30 Mariposa Crescent, Halswell) October 2014

Wendy and Marc really know their stuff.  They done an outstanding job for us with the sale of our property.  They told us it would sell within the week for x amount, they were 100% correct.  They kept us up to date with everything along the way, which was very reassuring.  Our lawyer even commented on what a great job they done and said they really know what they are doing.  Thanks guys you were outstanding :)
- Islay and Aaron (2/80 Brynley Street, Hornby) October 2014

Great service from start to finish!
- Kathleen (9 Kilbride Gardens, Halswell) September 2014

On another note, my wife and I started house hunting, a bit of market research gathering in the weekend. We looked through 4 houses, all listed with different companies and the only agents that actually talked to us were Total Realty (team Mark and Wendy)!  Big ups to these guys, very friendly and knowledgable.
- Nic (buyer from an open home) September 2014

Met Marc and Wendy at an open home and they were friendly, professional and great to deal with. Fantastic service, property sold for above our expectation and the communication was excellent
- Angela Monro (16 Penruddock Rise, Westmoreland) August 2014

Marc and Wendy were really prepared and had a great understanding of our area. Also the 1% commission is fantastic. We really enjoyed selling with them. Our house sold so fast and we got a great price for it. I would have no hesitation in recommending or using them again.
- Aimee Patchett (7 Hedge Close, Halswell) July 2014

I found Marc and Wendy very lovely. They gave me a rough idea on what we would get for our house, and they were very straight up with me. Great experience, would definately use Marc and Wendy again, they were always available when I had questions, and helped us with a fast sale.
- Sam and Mark (5 Ensign Street, Halswell) July 2014

Marc and Wendy were recommended by someone we totally trust, which proved to be a great recommendation. A very easy process, explained clearly with no misunderstanding and no stress.  A pleasant experience for an emotional thing to sell the family home.
- Yvonne Borrill (100 Richardson Terrace, Opawa) July 2014

We chose Wendy and Marc because of the low commission and the good results they had achieved in the area. Overall a good experience. Ended up selling to a couple that came through when the house was on private sale however the low commission structure made the sale achievable.
- Pete S (16 Goldney Close, Lincoln) June 2014

Both Steve and I want to pass on our gratitude for all the hard work you have done for us (purchasers) in regards to Latern Lane. We are well and truly impressed by your service levels - something we have rarely come across in the realty sector. Once again - many thanks and appreciation.
- Helen and Steve (Halswell) June 2014

Marc & Wendy are a great team to work with and totally professional in their approach & presentation at all times. They spent time with us discussing the different selling options available, listening to us & then presenting the best marketing strategy for our house and circumstances. We truly believe this approach was the main reason our house sold for the price we wanted at our first open day. We would definitely recommend them.
- Liz and Mike (4 Goldney Close, Lincoln) May 2014

Both Steve and I want to pass on our gratitude for all the hard work you have done for us (purchasers) in regards to Lantern Lane. We are well and truly impressed by your service levels - something we have rarely come across in the realty sector. Once again - many thanks and appreciation. All the best.
- Helen and Steve (purchasers in Halswell)

My experience with Total Realty from listing through to completion of sale was fantastic. I contacted Marc and Wendy after being advised not to go to the 1 percenters by other agencies as apparently they would undersell our property to get a quick sale. From the outset of our first meeting with Marc and Wendy they committed to achieving a price we were happy with. They were a pleasure to deal with and delivered the promise every step of the way. Their approach put us at ease and took the stress out of the sale process. The price they achieved for us was significantly higher than what other agents had suggested we would get for our property. I would recommend Total Realty to anyone selling a property.
- Martin O'Connor (62B Sabys Road, Halswell) April 2014

Couldn't rate Marc & Wendy highly enough, they have represented us well - achieved a fantasic price for us & have been lovely & professional to deal with.

- Don and Keren Pierce (2 Coronado Place, Russley) October 2013

I chose Total Realty as I liked the commission rate and after reading about the company online. I was convinced I would get my property sold for the best possible price without comprising on any of the other important aspects that other companies charge for. We developed a rapport from our first meeting and I had full confidence right from that moment on. I was not disappointed.

We first met Wendy and Marc at an open day for a house they were selling. We were so impressed with their friendly and professional manner that they were the first people we thought about to sell our own home.
They worked hard to get the top dollar for our property and kept us informed every step of the way. It was a pleasure to deal with them and we will not hesitate to recommend them to friends and family.

Both Marc and Wendy are professional and friendly and made us feel confident that we would receive the best price for our property, which we did. We would happily list another property with them and intend to do so later this year.
- Kathy Dixon (80 Foremans Road, Hornby) July 2013

Marc and Wendy sold for me four years ago and are still as passionate and professional as they were then. I cannot understand why anyone would want to go to any other company. Thanks Total Realty for caring for Christchurch.

We had three different estate agents through our house. Wendy and Marc were our choice as we felt they were honest, knew the market and local area well. They were down to earth and most importantly didn't pressure us in any way.

We started to look around at local open homes and came across many real estate agents, when coming to sell our house we knew there was only two people we trusted to do a great job, Marc and Wendy took the time to get to know us and what we had done to the property, they had answers if anyone had any questions, always putting us first, next time we sell, they will be our first phone call. - thank you for doing an amazing job
- Troy & Helen (58 Checketts Ave, Halswell) March 2013

Couldn't fault Marc and Wendy. To acheive the sale of our house there were a few hurdles with our conservatory but they remained so postive which fed through to us, so knew it would be resolved. Would have no hesitation in having future dealings with them and have already recommended them to friends and family.
- Jennifer and Ted Neumann (60 Barrington Street, Cashmere) March 2013

Wendy and Marc always go the extra distance which makes them stand out from the other agents.

2012 Testimonials

 

Thank you all so very much. I first met Marc and Wendy at the end of October when I had three appraisals completed on my home (2 from other company's). I chose Marc and Wendy after having already done some market research and also due to the enthusiasm and professionalism of their presentation to me.
As I live in Oamaru I did not meet with them again until 7 November when I signed all the necessary paperwork and the photographer took the photos. The first open home was held on Sunday 10 November and by Monday the 11th I had 4 offers on the table. Subsequently my home was sold and the money was in the bank by 7 December.
This most incredible journey in the space of one short month was outstanding. I cannot praise enough the way they handled everything. Communication, presentation, and total commitment to selling my property was fantastic. The legal secretary who dealt with Marc and Wendy also was very impressed as she had no trouble getting answers and results to her enquiries during this time. My lawyer and the same legal secretary were amazed with the commission due as we have no 1% sales teams here in Oamaru and they asked me twice did I have this right.
Last but not least after the sale was completed on Friday 7 December I received a cheque in the mail on Saturday 8 December. Just one day after the sale for the unused part of the marketing money which had been paid up front. All this without even asking for it.
Once again thank you all for making this all happen. The quality of service I recieved was more than I have ever recieved from any previous 3-4% commission agents.
- Joanne McGaughey ( 3-72a Springs Road, Hornby) November 2012

I have been meaning to send you a lovely home-made thank you card for weeks now... well I'm still working on that, so I thought I would send you a thank you e-mail in the mean time!   THANK YOU!!!!    I really do think you guys are just the best.   Despite the obvious stressors and decisions that go with selling a house, you guys went out of your way to make it smooth sailing and were so kind and generous in your support of the big task we had in getting ready to sell quickly!   Your communication was fabulous and we really REALLY appreciated your warmth and honesty.   We think that the way you and Total Realty work is the best and will always and forever recommend you whenever we get the chance.

- Leo (10 Brixton Street, Hornby) October 2012

Marc and Wendy sell houses; quickly, efficiently and with a very high level of committment to completion. It's as simple as that. Very highly recommended and worth every cent.
We were selling an old, slightly earthquake damaged property in Christchurch, while travelling in Western Australia. Marc and Wendy managed the sale process efficiently and got us two good offers from the first open home.
Their communication was good; we were kept well informed of any issues and they helped us resolve them.
They were excellent at keeping the buyers interested and motivated during a somewhat fraught post-offer negotiation period.
Overall we are extremely pleased with their level of professionalism, committment and determination to keep the sale process on track.
We would strongly recommend them.

Team Marc and Wendy managed the sale of our property with professionalism and integrity. Their committment did not waver and their communication was always friendly and efficient. They guided us through an arduous time with support, understanding and helpful advice. A big thank you from the Clements family.
- Steve and Vicky (Halswell Junction Road, Halswell) May 2011

The service and personal attention we received from Marc and Wendy was exceptional. Throughout the whole sale process they constantly provided us with useful tips in which to best showcase our home and heaps of  support with regards to the progression of potential offers on our home. We are happy to say that their knowledge of the housing market and their understanding of the official processes in hand to protect us as clients is extremely reassuring. We really felt that Marc and Wendy were looking after us – something that is greatly missing from a large number of real estate firms. We know that Total Realty only charge 1 % commission, but we never felt like the service they gave us was second rate, we were always provided with outstanding and professional service.

We would highly recommend Team Marc and Wendy to help you in this financially significant process, they will really look after you!

p.s. And Clementina will always remember you both for the Chuppa Chups..... ;-)
