WE VET REAL ESTATE AGENTS FOR SELLERS
Agent Finder NZ (2009), a free service for all New Zealanders, has raised the bar in real estate services so property sellers can achieve optimal sale prices in better than average timeframes.
Our real estate agent vetting method is based upon a stringent criteria which includes four categories and over 20 indicators - a unique, well-researched model that strengthens your knowledge of and your role in the real estate process to influence an optimal sale price and experience.
HOW THIS FREE SERVICE WORKS
We objectively vet real estate agents for your situation, property type, value, location and expectations. We then send you a shortlist of agents so you can compare them objectively using our:
- comprehensive questionnaire with which to interview them.
- advice about real estate commission and fees.
- guides to signing agency agreements and sale and purchase agreements.
- information about the different methods of sale.
- advice on what to look out for in property appraisals and
- how to sell fast if you've purchased another property subject to the sale of your current property

EXPERIENCE, RESEARCH AND THINKING OUTSIDE THE SQUARE
We have the benefit of a 14+ year national overview and a unique approach, solely to help New Zealanders prosper from their real estate sales. Read some of our 50+ reviews that prove their experiences have been positive.
We listen, engage, share vital information and resources to help you make some important decisions along the way. This will provide you with more clarity about who to choose to sell your property, what the process entails and what the costs will be.
From the shortlist of agents we research and qualify, you can then compare and review them objectively and from a position of knowledge rather than guesswork.
Conducting real estate agency work competently goes beyond agents simply holding a real estate licence because it's relatively easy for anyone to become a real estate agent.
We take our role in your property journey seriously and treat every client with a genuine, bespoke and high quality response because you have a lot at stake.
If you need help to find an estate agent - call us on 0800 789 532 - this is a genuine free service.
FEWER DAYS ON MARKET WITH VETTED AGENTS
A shorter time on the market can be a lifesaver if you're also purchasing another property.
Since 2009, the days on market for our clients have predominantly been around half of the average for their areas. We have monitored days on market since our inception.
Days on market are directly influenced by the competence of your real estate agent and how they manage prospective buyers using the method of sale you agree to. Setting the right foundation from the get-go is essential and helping you get this right is what we do here at Agent Finder NZ.

WISE UP NZ REAL ESTATE HUB OF ADVICE
In 2016 we also created a NZ property hub for home buyers and sellers. We continue to research and liaise with Government and non-Government bodies, trusts and societies to make navigating real estate information seamless, less stressful and less time-consuming.
Having property industry resources centralised in one place means you can source everything you need quickly.
We have often been commended by these industry organisations for our initiatives and commitment to helping to protect and inform property sellers.
ADVICE ABOUT REAL ESTATE COMMISSION
When selling a property, you will pay the same amount of commission and fees whether you list with a competent real estate agent, an average agent, one who is newly qualified or worse, not competent for today's market and economic challenges. How would you really know this?
Real estate commission and fees is something we can also help you with.
