Client testimonials

Slide 1 of 15

Working with Steffan to sell our home was as easy as it gets. He's a great communicator and demonstrates with ease that he also listens to what his clients' needs are. He made sure we understood the sale process and all the steps along the way and always kept us informed and updated throughout. We'd always heard around the community what a very nice guy Steffan is and that he was a great real estate agent too. It couldn't be more true. He's an experienced agent who really looks after you and delivers. With Steffan as our agent our house was sold in three weeks which was incredible! We would recommend him in a heartbeat.

Steffan worked with us on our recent sales of our property. It was a unique house with large land and not for everyone. We were waiting for one family to fall in love with it and they did! It took longer than we initially expected it to find this family and we were losing patience. Steffan assured us that we would find this family and when he did, everything fell into place and very quick from there. Steffan is extremely familiar with local market and knowledgeable in finding buyers for unique properties like ours. He is patient, resilient, down to earth and has hallmarks of someone who loves what they do. His communication style is direct and timely with no frills. He was just the person who we needed to get through this challenging time, which looking back was a unique, enjoyable one. Steffan also helped us looking at council reports and files for our prospective new home. This was beyond his call of duty and we didn’t have to ask twice. He’s just a very helpful person. He was willing to get things done whenever possible and a real asset to anyone who has the pleasure to work with him. Thank you Steffan for finding a lovely family to enjoy our beautiful property that we love and cherished. I feel the property is in good hands and will flourish with the family for years to come. Regards Rae

Steffan Eden recently sold our lifestyle property in Mahana for us. I can highly recommend him as an agent and wouldn’t hesitate to use him again. He is personable, genuine, communicates well, sorts problems quickly and most importantly gets you a great result. In an uncertain market Steffan’s advice and marketing strategy proved to be exceptional and invaluable. He quickly secured us a multi offer scenario at a price that exceeded our expectations!

Julia and Bevan

Steffan Eden from Bayleys sold our two properties in a professional and timely manner. Steffan further gave honest sideline advice showing genuine interest in our next property moves - ensuring we had the best possible outcomes. I found Steffan to be genuinely caring, patient and extremely courteous. His market knowledge exceptional and advice given relevant and to the point. Steffan showed above all that he works selflessly for his clients whilst respectfully treating us as friends. Always keen to help regardless if a sale in it or not, I have no hesitation recommending Steffan.

J McGeady, Nelson

We had previously sold our homes privately in other locations, so we applied the same strategy when selling our family home in the Redwood Valley. After six weeks on the market it was clear that the Nelson/Tasman region required a different approach. We enlisted the services of Steffan Eden who invested the time in getting to know us as we had a tight schedule due to our overseas relocation. Steffan was refreshingly honest, genuine and did not just tell tell us what we wanted to hear to get the listing, he told us his opinion, which ultimately proved to be very accurate. He knows his market well and achieved a result, and a price, which we were very happy with. Steffan did go the extra mile and looked after our family home when we had relocated offshore before the property had settled. We would recommend Steffan Eden for the reasons that he knows the Nelson/Tasman region property market inside out, but above all you can trust him to take personal care and responsibility for the process and communicate both seamlessly and with the utmost integrity.

Dr Gillian and Oliver

The process of selling my home, even through lockdown was made easy and painless due to the work and commitment of Steffan Eden. Steffan kept me informed right throughout the listing period and it was so great to know that he was working behind the scenes to keep things ticking over. He attended all of the open homes and appointments himself, which was very reassuring and I completely trusted in his friendly and professional manner to bring me an offer that I would be very happy with. Even after the sale had been and gone, Steffan went beyond the call of duty to answer any questions the new owners had, nothing was too much trouble. I will continue to recommend Steffan to my friends and family.

Rosalee

Steffan was thoroughly professional and acted with complete integrity. I would be very comfortable either selling or purchasing through Steffan again in the future. He is committed to ensuring the process is fair and equitable for both parties. We were kept in contact at all times. We found Steffan to be honest, proactive and we would recommend him as an agent.

Grant

Thank you so much to Steffan Eden for helping us through the process of buying our first home! It was a bit tricky trying to navigate our way through everything while still maintaining social distancing but Steffan was so patient and supportive, and made sure we understood all the the ins and outs of everything. He really went the extra mile for us! Thank you to Steffan and Bayleys from Esther and Tamas. Thanks again so much, we are super excited to start moving in and making it our home! Take care.

Esther and Tamas (and little Eric)

Steffan's experience with us was amazing. We appreciated everything that he has done for us. Sold our home within 7 days, kept us fully informed of procedures. Steffan is confident and it was a pleasure working with him.

Peter & Carolyn

Steffan was brilliant at knowing exactly what we were looking to buy and found the perfect home for us. Professional to deal with in every aspect, Steffan made the whole process feel easy by keeping us in the loop all along. We appreciated his proactive, yet human, approach. We highly recommend Steffan when it comes to buying and wouldn’t hesitate to sell with him too. Thanks a bunch.

Dee

Steffan came highly recommended by someone we respect. We have known Steffan for only a short while, but in that time he has exceeded our expectations. Steffan thinks outside the square - of creative options to get a house marketed successfully. Steffan makes promises about what he will do and he delivers. Steffan's best attribute as far as we are concerned is his communication. He always kept us informed of progress and were never left wondering what was happening. If we ever needed to sell our house in the future, Steffan would be our 1st choice. We are happy to be contacted if you need any further details.

Ray and Sally Scott

Hey Steffan. I just wanted to quickly message you and say how happy I am with the work you put in personally into the quick sale of my house. It's allowed me to shift focus onto other projects and has also restored faith in real estate agents. So cheers mate. I owe you a beer.

Sam

Steffan sold my home with the minimum of fuss and was thoroughly professional in his approach. He made the whole process easy and obtained a very good price for my home. He went above and beyond what I expected from a real estate agent. I would have no hesitation in recommending Steffan to anyone looking to sell their home.

Susan

We recently had the good fortune to sell our house with Steffan who made the process very easy, he kept in contact regularly and we were well informed at all times. We found Steffan to be a genuinely friendly person to deal with, absolutely professional, courteous & punctual at all times. He has great communication skills and we believe he actually cares about his clients.

John & Cheryl

I recently purchased a house in Richmond through Steffan. Prior to that I had viewed several other properties in the area with him. Throughout I found Steffan to be wholly honest, hard-working, accommodating and a genuine pleasure to work with. He also has a wealth of local real estate knowledge which is a huge bonus to anyone new to the Nelson region. I would highly recommend Steffan to anyone thinking of buying or selling their property.

Methods of sale

There are several methods of selling property in New Zealand. It is important that you understand the process for the property you are selling.

Auctions are a public process where a property is sold to the highest bidder at a level pre-determined by you, the seller.

  • Auctions are the most transparent sales process, putting all qualified purchasers together in one room, increasing competition to aid determination of fair market value
  • A sale under the auction hammer is cash unconditional, providing sellers with certainty to plan their next move
  • The deadline timeframe of the auction process creates urgency and a window for buyers to complete due diligence

Usually set over a specific four-or-five week timeframe, the tender process leverages the timeframe element to invite buyers to submit a formal offer. After this, you can negotiate the terms of the sale with your preferred purchaser.

Expressions of interest invite all offers from interested parties, allowing flexibility and the option to choose who you want to negotiate with.

Properties offered for sale by negotiation leave value to be determined by the market. This is where the advice and experience of your qualified Bayleys salesperson can assist in determining where you see value for the property and are comfortable accepting an offer. Sales by negotiation are generally open-ended, with the absence of time pressure on both buyers and sellers.
