Lorraine was the ultimate professional in the sale of our house. She listened to our concerns about which sale process to pursue, told us she could deliver with our preferred approach and came through with an excellent result. Communication throughout the process was excellent including face to face meetings. We felt a real partnership in getting to the sale price we wanted. Lorraine was an absolute pleasure to work with and achieved a great result for us. We would highly recommend her.
Lorraine was very professional throughout the entire process and had us sold in less than 2 weeks cash unconditional! Well done Lorraine and thank you.
Choosing an agent to sell our family home of 24 years was a big decision for us. We hadn’t met Lorraine before and from our first meeting we felt comfortable with Lorraine and we entrusted her with the marketing of our house. Lorraine ran a fantastic campaign. She took the time to truly understand our property and the campaign reflected the lovely and unique features of our home. Lorraine’s attention to detail to the photos, marketing material etc was exceptional. We had huge numbers through (158 groups). Lorraine kept us fully up to date on developments and actively worked prospective buyers. She devoted a lot of time and energy into the campaign. On the day of the auction we were blown away by the final sale price. This was bittersweet given what had transpired three days earlier but much of the credit must go to Lorraine. We hope the buyers are as happy as we have been in the property. We made a wonderful decision in choosing Lorraine and would highly recommend her.
The experience of selling our family home was handled with the utmost professionalism by Lorraine Young, her assistants, and the Auctioneer, Conor Paton. Lorraine was extremely impressive as she educated us on the sale process and the best way to present our home. She demonstrated the same high level of professionalism and efficiency as she liaised tirelessly with potential buyers and informed us of progress.
Lorraine Young was recommended to us by our neighbour as being an amazing, thorough, committed, professional real estate agent. She did not disappoint! She was focussed on selling our house for the best price possible, she was realistic, always researched her advice and decisions. She was fantastic to help us prepare the house for sale, she knew every imaginable tradie we asked for. I really loved how she was phenomenal with creating a wonderful narrative around our property, even when building inspections showed up some issues, she guided us to get the necessary work done, or suitable information to help the buyer. She is a wonderful genuine sales person, who takes her role seriously and ethically, showing your home to the right people, nurturing a sense of love of the property to the best buyers currently in the market. The entire Bayleys team knew how to hold your hand through the process, especially on the day. Despite her need to focus on the buyers at the auction, she still made sure we felt comfortable, supported, and aware of where the process was at.
Lorraine Young is a highly professional and meticulous real estate agent who is an expert in her field. She guided us through the entire process with calm reassurance and an in-depth knowledge of the market. Her attention to detail and thorough approach ensured that everything was taken care of seamlessly. I highly recommend Lorraine Young to anyone looking for an outstanding real estate agent.
Lorraine was the best agent for our property. She totally “got” its special features and unique location. She remained positive throughout the sales campaign. Regular updates meant we did not receive any surprises as auction day approached. Thank you, Lorraine, for being on our side, no matter the state of the market.
I am delighted to have the chance to let other vendors know of my wonderful experience working with Lorraine on the sale of my home. I had not been in the market as a vendor or a buyer for a number of years and had experienced a devastating loss with a leaky building, and the resulting fall out. Because of my experience I was very nervous and a bit skeptical about entrusting the sale of my last asset to an agent, and fully anticipated the experience being an ordeal I had to endure. However Lorraine not only did an outstanding job in marketing and selling my property, demonstrating integrity, an exceptional work ethic and unfailing dedication to the task, but she restored my faith in the real estate profession again, and for both of those things I am truly grateful. She was very professional but also patient and kind, and it was interesting that one of my neighbours who came to view the property remarked on how unintrusive, yet helpful and knowledgeable she was. It is my pleasure to recommend Lorraine to any prospective vendor. She will leave no stone unturned for you and will achieve the very best possible price for your property that the market allows. And she will perform those duties with grace and calm conviction.
Lorraine was very knowledgeable and had great advice on how to market and sell our home. She was very professional, with excellent communication throughout the process. Lorraine was a pleasure to deal with and we are very happy with the sale
Lorraine Young was a great help when selling my home. Very professional and superb communicator who goes the extra mile. I have used many agents over the years, and I want to say that your professionalism and care of duty went beyond what I expected. You took all the stress and worry out of the transaction completely for me. I now know why you have such a grand reputation in the area that you deal in. It is very well deserved. Lorraine you are a superb professional in your vocation and you deserve every success. I won't hesitate in recommending you to all my friends and contacts.
“Lorraine Young made selling our house a smooth and pleasant experience. She knew exactly what to do at every step of the process and gave us excellent guidance along the way. Specifically, Lorraine was extremely helpful and responsive, aware of the current market conditions she advised the best approach and strategy for our property. We could not have been happier working with her and the price she achieved for us! She remained confident when we encountered challenges and always kept us positive. I would highly recommend Lorraine to anyone selling or buying a house. She is the ultimate professional!”
Lorraine made a stressful situation much easier to navigate for which we are very grateful. She provided feedback on key areas we should address to ensure our property looked its best and we believe that contributed to us achieving a sales price that exceeded our expectations. We selected Lorraine from a number of other high-profile agents in the Remuera/Epsom area because she had been recommended to us and because we knew that she personally would be handling all aspects of our listing rather than securing our listing and then passing us onto an assistant. We have already recommended Lorraine to a number of our friends and would be happy to be contacted as referees to attest to her high service levels and attention to detail.
Lorraine came highly recommended by my neighbours and I couldn’t have been happier when I met her for the first time. Selling a house is a massive project, but with Lorraine at my side, I felt that I was able to do it with ease. Lorraine makes sure that she really understands her clients needs during the entire process of the sale. She has this special gift to guide you through the sales process, with such confidence, professionalism, warmth and support, that you are able to manage the stress and sometimes anxious moments in the lead up to the sale. Lorraine has got your back. She is so diligent, polite, kind, and professional, the perfect combination that will guarantee the sale of your house in no time. It’s a no brainer to hire Lorraine, she won’t disappoint, quite the opposite, she will show you the potential of your home, which will blow you away. Thank you Lorraine for accompanying me and my family on this journey. It was an absolute pleasure and honour to have you as our listing agent.
“As a property owner residing in Africa we were reliant on Lorraine for more support than a real estate agent would normally expect. Add to that the additional challenges of selling during and towards the end of the COVID restrictions, and when the market was starting to feel the effects of the emerging inflation and slower global economic growth. That a successful sale of our Remuera property was secured at a good price when house prices were challenged is a testament to the drive, energy, persistence and professionalism of Lorraine Young. I cannot recommend her highly enough. “

We had outstanding service from our agent Lorraine Young and her assistant Kendall Harris. Lorraine guided us through the whole process with great professionalism.

We concluded with a sale we're pleased with and are grateful to Lorraine for her advice and expertise to close the deal.
Lorraine Young of Bayleys Remuera is the consumate professional and such a delight to work with whether at a personal level, where she is very open friendly courteous a d respectful; or at achieving the very best result for me.

Kendall, Lorraine's assistant, is also a delight to work with. Kendall also has a wonderful way of dealing with clients and has fantastic communication skills. Kendall is very prompt, efficient and thorough at following up on all issues and very helpful. Very happy with the auction process and the result George achieved along with Lorraine and Kendall. Very happy client.
Lorraine came highly recommended, and I am extremely grateful for the way she handled the very successful sale of our property today. The campaign was handled with professionalism at every step. Her clear communication, and straightforward approach to selling our home, made the process stress free. Lorraine is always professional and respectful, and the fantastic results she achieves are a testament to her hard work. I highly recommend Lorraine.
After retiring from a 35-plus-year plus career in real estate, we were confident to leave all the details to our selected agent Lorraine Young. I’d worked with, or known, almost every real estate salesperson in Central Auckland over my career, and there was only ever going to be one choice for us. Lorraine’s thorough attention to detail from the photography, to the copy and marketing, and to managing all our buyers’ needs demonstrated her professionalism and expertise. Her performance and care is total commitment to a vendor, that not many agents carry through to the end. The extra commitment Lorraine Young gave for our property sale meant more than ‘just the extra’ we received. Thank you, Lorraine, from the bottom of our hearts. We always said that you would be the one to list our home, and today you have unequivocally reminded us as to why.
From our first contact with Lorraine after having been recommended to her, we were drawn by her warm professional manner. She understood not only the current market but also the special character of our home, helping to further maximise its appeal to buyers. Our needs were listened to, we were kept informed at every step and our queries rapidly responded to, even late in the evening. Of particular note, was her experience, skill and personality that rapidly steered us through a stressful and complex council consent process. Lorraine developed a superb marketing plan, negotiating us through the pre-auction offer maze to achieve an undisputedly successful outcome at auction. From first meeting to settlement day Lorraine has been there. We recommend her to any prospective vendor with absolutely no hesitation.
Lorraine is a part of my team of experts. She has over the years sold several properties for me. I continue to work with Lorraine as she does demonstrate she is very skilled and professional and approaches each campaign intelligently. She is friendly, relates to people effortlessly plus she is easy to work with whilst still maintaining her professionalism. Lorraine has helped me achieve great outcomes. Her professionalism meets my high expectations. I highly recommend Lorraine.
Thanks for the great job you did in selling our home Lorraine. We were thrilled with the result. We appreciated your professionalism and integrity. You were always approachable and made, what can be a stressful time, straightforward.
You are the force behind our tremendous, good fortune today. We found you to be professional, passionate, resourceful and completely stunning. You were always caring and informative, thoughtful and committed to help both us and the purchasers. Our result today was due to the Lorraine factor!
It is with great pleasure to have this opportunity to recommend Lorraine as a Real Estate Agent whose professionalism, skill and honesty is outstanding. For the second time we have had the benefit of Lorraine marketing a property for us. There is no doubt the successful sale of both properties was down to Lorraine. Her understanding of market conditions and needs for the property’s sale was very apparent. It was very clear to us that Lorraine was very robust regarding full disclosure to the buyer. Which clearly demonstrated a professional in all respects. We have no hesitation in recommending Lorraine to others and if the occasion should arise, Lorraine would be the first person, we would contact to sell a property for us.
After doing a lot of research; visiting open homes; watching real estate agents at work; asking questions and gauging responses we selected Loraine Young to sell our home. As well as having a successful sales history we felt it was important that an agent needed to appreciate the location, the views and the style of house as much as we do. We found Lorraine and her team had that something extra that gave us confidence that they could sell our home. Lorraine made the often stressful and disruptive process of selling a house as easy as possible. Our house sold at auction. We were very pleased with our decision to select Lorraine and always found Lorraine accommodating, knowledgeable, professional and a pleasure to work with. Once again thanks so much for selling our home.
Upon engagement Lorraine displayed her ability to pull together a great campaign while keeping us fully informed throughout. Her attention to detail, from timing of the auction, marketing the property, staging requirements and re-enforcing the need to capture a broad client base, and her broad network were major factors in delivering a result that far exceeded our expectations. Her commitment was unwaivering, even when we were all pushed to meet client deadlines Lorraine was the ultimate professional, keeping in constant communication and providing the benefit of her experience throughout the process. At one stage Lorraine was still making phone calls at 10.30pm one night to help us achieve our result. If you are looking for personable, professional, punctual and profitable real estate service, we would highly and unreservedly recommend Lorraine to any potential house sellers.”
We enlisted Lorraine Young’s services for the recent sale of our house, and although this was a very stressful time, she immediately put us at ease, and handled all our enquiries and concerns promptly and efficiently. She acted at all times in a very professional manner, and we felt very confident in her ability to take our home to market in the best possible way and achieve the best outcome for us. She is top in my books and I highly recommend her services.

Despite her need to focus on the buyers at the auction, she still made sure we felt comfortable, supported, and aware of where the process was at.
Lorraine Young is a highly professional and meticulous real estate agent who is an expert in her field. She guided us through the entire process with calm reassurance and an in-depth knowledge of the market. Her attention to detail and thorough approach ensured that everything was taken care of seamlessly. I highly recommend Lorraine Young to anyone looking for an outstanding real estate agent.
Lorraine was the best agent for our property. She totally “got” its special features and unique location. She remained positive throughout the sales campaign. Regular updates meant we did not receive any surprises as auction day approached. Thank you, Lorraine, for being on our side, no matter the state of the market.
I am delighted to have the chance to let other vendors know of my wonderful experience working with Lorraine on the sale of my home. I had not been in the market as a vendor or a buyer for a number of years and had experienced a devastating loss with a leaky building, and the resulting fall out. Because of my experience I was very nervous and a bit skeptical about entrusting the sale of my last asset to an agent, and fully anticipated the experience being an ordeal I had to endure. However Lorraine not only did an outstanding job in marketing and selling my property, demonstrating integrity, an exceptional work ethic and unfailing dedication to the task, but she restored my faith in the real estate profession again, and for both of those things I am truly grateful. She was very professional but also patient and kind, and it was interesting that one of my neighbours who came to view the property remarked on how unintrusive, yet helpful and knowledgeable she was. It is my pleasure to recommend Lorraine to any prospective vendor. She will leave no stone unturned for you and will achieve the very best possible price for your property that the market allows. And she will perform those duties with grace and calm conviction.
Lorraine was very knowledgeable and had great advice on how to market and sell our home. She was very professional, with excellent communication throughout the process. Lorraine was a pleasure to deal with and we are very happy with the sale
Lorraine Young was a great help when selling my home. Very professional and superb communicator who goes the extra mile. I have used many agents over the years, and I want to say that your professionalism and care of duty went beyond what I expected. You took all the stress and worry out of the transaction completely for me. I now know why you have such a grand reputation in the area that you deal in. It is very well deserved. Lorraine you are a superb professional in your vocation and you deserve every success. I won't hesitate in recommending you to all my friends and contacts.
“Lorraine Young made selling our house a smooth and pleasant experience. She knew exactly what to do at every step of the process and gave us excellent guidance along the way. Specifically, Lorraine was extremely helpful and responsive, aware of the current market conditions she advised the best approach and strategy for our property. We could not have been happier working with her and the price she achieved for us! She remained confident when we encountered challenges and always kept us positive. I would highly recommend Lorraine to anyone selling or buying a house. She is the ultimate professional!”
Lorraine made a stressful situation much easier to navigate for which we are very grateful. She provided feedback on key areas we should address to ensure our property looked its best and we believe that contributed to us achieving a sales price that exceeded our expectations. We selected Lorraine from a number of other high-profile agents in the Remuera/Epsom area because she had been recommended to us and because we knew that she personally would be handling all aspects of our listing rather than securing our listing and then passing us onto an assistant. We have already recommended Lorraine to a number of our friends and would be happy to be contacted as referees to attest to her high service levels and attention to detail.
Lorraine came highly recommended by my neighbours and I couldn’t have been happier when I met her for the first time. Selling a house is a massive project, but with Lorraine at my side, I felt that I was able to do it with ease. Lorraine makes sure that she really understands her clients needs during the entire process of the sale. She has this special gift to guide you through the sales process, with such confidence, professionalism, warmth and support, that you are able to manage the stress and sometimes anxious moments in the lead up to the sale. Lorraine has got your back. She is so diligent, polite, kind, and professional, the perfect combination that will guarantee the sale of your house in no time. It’s a no brainer to hire Lorraine, she won’t disappoint, quite the opposite, she will show you the potential of your home, which will blow you away. Thank you Lorraine for accompanying me and my family on this journey. It was an absolute pleasure and honour to have you as our listing agent.
“As a property owner residing in Africa we were reliant on Lorraine for more support than a real estate agent would normally expect. Add to that the additional challenges of selling during and towards the end of the COVID restrictions, and when the market was starting to feel the effects of the emerging inflation and slower global economic growth. That a successful sale of our Remuera property was secured at a good price when house prices were challenged is a testament to the drive, energy, persistence and professionalism of Lorraine Young. I cannot recommend her highly enough. “

After retiring from a 35-plus-year plus career in real estate, we were confident to leave all the details to our selected agent Lorraine Young. I’d worked with, or known, almost every real estate salesperson in Central Auckland over my career, and there was only ever going to be one choice for us. Lorraine’s thorough attention to detail from the photography, to the copy and marketing, and to managing all our buyers’ needs demonstrated her professionalism and expertise. Her performance and care is total commitment to a vendor, that not many agents carry through to the end. The extra commitment Lorraine Young gave for our property sale meant more than ‘just the extra’ we received. Thank you, Lorraine, from the bottom of our hearts. We always said that you would be the one to list our home, and today you have unequivocally reminded us as to why.
From our first contact with Lorraine after having been recommended to her, we were drawn by her warm professional manner. She understood not only the current market but also the special character of our home, helping to further maximise its appeal to buyers. Our needs were listened to, we were kept informed at every step and our queries rapidly responded to, even late in the evening. Of particular note, was her experience, skill and personality that rapidly steered us through a stressful and complex council consent process. Lorraine developed a superb marketing plan, negotiating us through the pre-auction offer maze to achieve an undisputedly successful outcome at auction. From first meeting to settlement day Lorraine has been there. We recommend her to any prospective vendor with absolutely no hesitation.

I continue to work with Lorraine as she does demonstrate she is very skilled and professional and approaches each campaign intelligently. She is friendly, relates to people effortlessly plus she is easy to work with whilst still maintaining her professionalism. Lorraine has helped me achieve great outcomes. Her professionalism meets my high expectations. I highly recommend Lorraine.
Thanks for the great job you did in selling our home Lorraine. We were thrilled with the result. We appreciated your professionalism and integrity. You were always approachable and made, what can be a stressful time, straightforward.
You are the force behind our tremendous, good fortune today. We found you to be professional, passionate, resourceful and completely stunning. You were always caring and informative, thoughtful and committed to help both us and the purchasers. Our result today was due to the Lorraine factor!
It is with great pleasure to have this opportunity to recommend Lorraine as a Real Estate Agent whose professionalism, skill and honesty is outstanding. For the second time we have had the benefit of Lorraine marketing a property for us. There is no doubt the successful sale of both properties was down to Lorraine. Her understanding of market conditions and needs for the property’s sale was very apparent. It was very clear to us that Lorraine was very robust regarding full disclosure to the buyer. Which clearly demonstrated a professional in all respects. We have no hesitation in recommending Lorraine to others and if the occasion should arise, Lorraine would be the first person, we would contact to sell a property for us.
After doing a lot of research; visiting open homes; watching real estate agents at work; asking questions and gauging responses we selected Loraine Young to sell our home. As well as having a successful sales history we felt it was important that an agent needed to appreciate the location, the views and the style of house as much as we do. We found Lorraine and her team had that something extra that gave us confidence that they could sell our home. Lorraine made the often stressful and disruptive process of selling a house as easy as possible. Our house sold at auction. We were very pleased with our decision to select Lorraine and always found Lorraine accommodating, knowledgeable, professional and a pleasure to work with. Once again thanks so much for selling our home.
Upon engagement Lorraine displayed her ability to pull together a great campaign while keeping us fully informed throughout. Her attention to detail, from timing of the auction, marketing the property, staging requirements and re-enforcing the need to capture a broad client base, and her broad network were major factors in delivering a result that far exceeded our expectations. Her commitment was unwaivering, even when we were all pushed to meet client deadlines Lorraine was the ultimate professional, keeping in constant communication and providing the benefit of her experience throughout the process. At one stage Lorraine was still making phone calls at 10.30pm one night to help us achieve our result. If you are looking for personable, professional, punctual and profitable real estate service, we would highly and unreservedly recommend Lorraine to any potential house sellers.”
We enlisted Lorraine Young’s services for the recent sale of our house, and although this was a very stressful time, she immediately put us at ease, and handled all our enquiries and concerns promptly and efficiently. She acted at all times in a very professional manner, and we felt very confident in her ability to take our home to market in the best possible way and achieve the best outcome for us. She is top in my books and I highly recommend her services.
