Chris Royal

The selling of our house through Chris was so professional and stress less that it felt like "one day we listed and next day the money was in the bank." This was achieved by Chris's calm and diligent approach. We were constantly kept in touch beyond expectations. His knowledge of the market was most reassuring and correct. Finally both of us were rewarded with a sale price well above expectation. We have no hesitation in recommending Chris Royal as your marketing agent . As a vendor you will have no regrets. We offer to Chris and his marketing team a big thank you for their diligence and and effort which was instrumental in achieving a very acceptable auction offer. Also thank you to the person who recommended you to us----he was dead right.

Ian and Pam Fox

Right from the get-go we were impressed with Chris as he answered our phone call on a Sunday night during the Christmas holiday break! Together Chris and Cheryl are a formidable team whom I would not hesitate to recommend to anyone considering selling their property. They are knowledgeable, organized, approachable, and honest and show a huge amount of professional and personal integrity. We could not have wished for a more successful result come auction day and cannot thank Chris and Cheryl enough for their commitment to what proved to be a 'crazy-busy' campaign!

Richard & Karen Lowe

I was referred to Chris via an extended family member and he came through with flying colours! I was constantly updated on all aspects around listing my property right down to the quality of the photos. During a lull in the market for my type of property, Chris assured me and helped me re-focus and believe my property was a goodie. And he was right!

Karen Bloxham

Chris Royal acted for my wife and I when we listed our home for sale. We found Chris' advice to be very well balanced, the information he provided accurate and the identification of potential purchasers informed. He knew his clients and he knew the type of property they were wishing to locate. He is prepared to inconvenience himself for the convenience of others and is a skilled negotiator. I would recommend him to anyone as a skilled real estate agent.

Bruce R Farthing

Over the years we have purchased many properties in Tauranga for ourselves and our family, each time buying with Chris Royal. We have gone through the process of selling these properties over the last couple of years once again using Chris Royal and Eves Realty, the latest being our own home which we decided to sell by Auction. Our home was sold well above reserve in the auction room under the hammer. We have always been very happy with the advice Chris has given and the integrity shown to achieve the outcomes we desired. We would have no hesitation recommending Chris Royal to anyone considering purchasing or selling.

Thank you for the seamless handling of selling our house. I said to my wife that I liked Chris' style, not pushy and understood what we were looking for.

Robert and Karen Zijp

Thank you so much for your efforts to sell mum's house. The auction went really well and we are all thrilled with the outcome. It was a great choice for us to have selected Eves and a big credit to you to take us on given the distance we were operating from. We really appreciated your advice, transparency and guidance through the whole process.

Jenny Cooper, Hong Kong

While a reputable company was important to us when deciding who to sell with, our final decision came down to the calibre of the agent. We found that Chris more than met our expectations. The communication on a weekly basis was exemplary. He was helpful, knowledgeable, strong in his convictions and absolutely right in the marketing and chosen method of sale

Graeme and Zoe Blissett

As owners of a "hard to sell" property who have used approximately 10 real estate agents over a 4 year period we feel qualified to comment on the characteristics of a good agent. Chris was recommended to us and we have been delighted with the choice made. We were consistently impressed with his professionalism and integrity and are convinced that he worked hard on our behalf to achieve the best price possible for our property.

Dave Hanna

From our first meeting my wife and I had to discuss the sale of our house I was impressed with Chris' direct and professional approach. He promised he would give us 100% effort and this is exactly what we received. We appreciated Chris' commitment to keep us in the loop from a communication point of view and never felt left out of what was happening. I will be recommending Chris to both friends and my own clients.

H O Cooney, Partner Cooney Lees Morgan

This is a market that is fairly tough for vendors, particularly of apartments. In that context, the amount of time taken to close a sale and the price achieved, was an outcome I am very pleased with. You got us good value for our marketing spend and kept us well informed of progress which gave me confidence that if there was a buyer out there, you would locate them and reel them in. For me you are batting 2 from 2 so I will have no hesitation in calling on your services again.

Trevor Miles

You kept us constantly aware of our situation relative to "Open Homes" and individual viewings. The market was difficult but you persevered and succeeded.

Alec and Jan McNaull

We would like to record our appreciation of the excellent service you gave us selling our property. The marketing plan for selling, the excellent exposure in the media, your constant attention to detail and your regular and comprehensive communication gave us confidence that a sale could be achieved within the planned seven week period to auction date. In addition your pleasant, friendly manner eased the stress associated with selling one's home.

Helen & John Horner

We have worked with Chris on 3 occasions now. He is very professional in his work, knowledgeable and committed to achieving the best result possible whilst taking into account his vendors' wishes. Selling our properties with Chris has been an enjoyable process each time and we would certainly choose to work with him again.

Mark & Ruth Richards

I am impressed with your professionalism and dedication as a real estate agent. You gave us your expert advice, yet genuinely listened and respected our decisions. It was quite difficult for us to let go of our home after 8 years but you helped moving on easier.

Greig and Karren Anderson

Your ability to stick with us throught he process of looking for the ideal property was much appreciated, and your wisdom and advise in helping us sell our home in this market made for a relatively quick sale.

Chris' manner and professionalism were much appreciated. He achieved a better result than we had expected in the rather gloomy property market and we would have no hesitation in using him again for any property transactions.

Murray & Lynda Rabel

Thank you so much for the service you have given us over the past few weeks. The quick turnaround was fantastic. There was no hassle and you just took over and controlled the whole procedure which is great for us being busy people. The regular letters every week keeping us informed on all the responses from potential clients was wonderful.

Donna Keaney

Thank you for your time and professionalism in helping me to locate and purchase a lovely home, which in turn has helped with my transition in life. I am now well and truly settled and feeling very much at home.

Paula Arnold

As well as Chris' professional approach, I feel a couple of key factors leading to our sale were Chris' ability to study and survey the market and make necessary adjustments to stay ahead of our opposition. Also very important to me was the continual contact between Chris and ourselves

Steve & Stephanie Livingstone

We were impressed by your no nonsense and straight forward approach. We also appreciated the prompt feedback you gave us after each prospective buyer visit. We are grateful for the hassle free sale
