13 years ago we bought our Kohimarama home through Peter Cleave and chose The Cleaves to sell it recently. They were professional and made the whole process easy. Their knowledge of the local market and clear communication delivered a great result. We highly recommend them.

Selling a home is often one of life’s most stressful moments, so having the experience and professionalism of The Cleaves team beside us made all the difference. Their approach to marketing and sales highlighted our property’s best features and brought out its unique appeal. At every stage, The Cleaves kept us well-informed and supported, ensuring we felt confident and at ease throughout the process. For anyone considering selling their property, we wholeheartedly recommend The Cleaves for their expertise, responsiveness, and genuine care.

I had an outstanding experience working with The Cleaves. From the very beginning, they were professional, reliable, and genuinely committed to getting the best result. Their communication was excellent - they kept me updated at every stage and always took the time to explain things clearly. What really impressed me was their attention to detail and how smoothly they managed the entire process. Nothing was ever too much trouble, and their knowledge of the market was spot on. Thanks to their hard work, everything felt effortless and the outcome exceeded my expectations. I would highly recommend The Cleaves to anyone looking to buy or sell. They truly go above and beyond.

We recently engaged with The Cleave's to sell our family home, and can absolutely attest to the highest level of professionalism and outcome for the successful sale of our property. We considered multiple agents, including ‘local’ agents however The Cleave’s were by far the most professional throughout the entire process and delivered results that aligned with their initial appraisal. Throughout the sale process, communication was clear, open homes very well run leaving us with the highest of impressions of The Cleave’s. We would only consider their services in future should we look to list again.

We were very impressed by the Cleave teams' approach to selling our home - they were honest, pragmatic and hard working, resulting in a good outcome. With great communication and input throughout the process, we always felt like their views were valuable and that we knew exactly where we were at at each stage. The Cleaves are the best agents we have used and were excellent to deal with, including deep knowledge of the local market. We would absolutely recommend using them to sell a property.

With the superb support and efficient service provided by Peter, Lisa and Myles, we have recently purchased a permanent home and sold our holiday home (both in Kohimarama). During the process, we were based in Tauranga and valued the excellent communication and superb efforts by Peter, Lisa and Myles to ensure that everything ran smoothly. The Cleaves operate calmly and effectively, and have the clever ability to keep up traction without any pressure. Peter is a smart negotiator bringing deals together, Lisa is a perfect organiser, and Myles is an enthusiastic, hard-. working Property Guru. We were also impressed with their honesty and integrity and would highly recommend The Cleaves as a team that takes real estate marketing to the next level.

very easy to work with and truly understands our needs

The Cleaves team are a pleasure to work with - very friendly, professional, and thorough who get great results. Very impressed with the whole Bayleys experience from signing up to auction day.

We have had the privilege of both purchasing and selling property in Parnell with the assistance of the Cleaves. Both campaigns were undertaken during soft market conditions and involved property-specific challenges. Despite these factors, the Cleaves demonstrated professionalism and unwavering commitment to achieving outcomes. Their clear communication and persistence throughout the processes gave us confidence and ultimately delivered successful results. We hold them in high regard and are pleased to recommend their services.

We’re so grateful to Peter, Myles & Lisa Cleave for helping us sell our home in what was definitely a tricky market. From day one, their communication was excellent - clear, honest and always reassuring. They were calm, positive and genuinely supportive throughout the whole process. Thanks to their persistence and smart approach, we got the result we were hoping for. We’re very happy vendors and would absolutely recommend The Cleaves to anyone thinking of selling.

Working with The Cleaves to sell our home was a seamless and stress free process. Selling a home can be such a challenge, but The Cleaves made what could have been a tremendously stressful experience an absolute breeze. We were very grateful for the regular, clear and thorough communication we received at every step of the process. We always felt The Cleaves had our best interest in mind and we always felt we knew where we stood. We had a fantastic result selling our home and this is fully a credit to the hard work of Peter, Lisa and Myles! For any of our future buying or selling needs, our first stop will be The Cleave family.

Highly recommended. Selling a property in a falling market is not for the faint hearted. Thankfully we had Team Cleave on our side! The expertise, experience and energy of Myles, Peter and Lisa was fantastic. We got great advice on how to prepare our house for sale, an excellent marketing campaign that saw our listing outperform the market, and a dedicated team that ultimately delivered the result on auction day. 55a Baddeley Ave, Kohimarama

Heartfelt thanks to Peter & his team Peter, Lisa & Myles sold our home of over 16 years at the end of 2020. Thanks to their professionalism and open communication, we knew what was happening at every step in the process. They were able to assist us with recommendations for preparing the house for sale and were always prompt to reply to our queries. We felt we were in good hands and remain very thankful that they were working with us.

Excellent Performance Throughout a Challenging Sale Process. Peter, Lisa and Myles delivered a good result for us. Our house was a high value property that required significant remedial works, ( which were fully disclosed ). This reduced the number of interested buyers and created real challenges for the agent in a rapidly cooling market. Peter and the Cleaves' perseverance and problem solving skills got a difficult sale over the finish line. Any agent can sell a perfect house in a hot market, but now that it's a buyers' market again, experience like Peter, Lisa and Myles' really counts.

Excellent team. Team Cleave did a great job selling our St Heliers home right from the paperwork and administration through to the marketing mix and the management of open homes and potential buyers through to the auction itself. We were very happy with the outcome and professionalism of Peter Lisa and Myles. I would recommend them to anyone looking for a hassle free sales process with absolute professionals. 9 Challenger St, St Heliers

I recently sold my house with Peter, Lisa & Myles Cleave. They were professional, knowledgeable, friendly and quick to communicate at every stage. They worked seamlessly as a team with Lisa in the open home/marketing phase, Myles bringing potential buyers through, and Peter driving the negotiation phase. They made the whole process as stress free as possible in what could have been a very stressful pre-Christmas time. I appreciated their care and thorough, organised approach. I would not hesitate to recommend them to other vendors. Excellent job and result – thank you to the Cleaves! Victoria 11 Woodside Cres

After making the decision to sell the next most important decision is the appointment of the agent. What was key to us was identifying an agent that could demonstrate superior results in our local beachside market, but with a broader track record across nearby suburbs of Remuera, Epsom and Parnell. We wanted an agent that recognises value and their thinking is not be constrained by the price achieved in the last “local” sale. This is especially important when dealing with higher priced and more unique properties, as the buyer can come from anywhere. The other important feature we discovered was the strength in having the 3 family members on the team. Peter, with his deep experience, Lisa-super efficient, organised and made my partner really comfortable having a women’s perspective, and Myles, who can connect to the younger buyer- in fact all buyers with his high EQ and empathy. Needless to say we picked the right agents; the assistance in helping to prepare the house, the professionalism and the result they achieved. Many thanks; Lisa and Andrew

Lisa, Peter and Myles Cleave each bring their own professional expertise to the team that is Team Cleave. We have known Peter and Lisa for many years, as they had sold a home for us previously, so we had no hesitation in selecting them a second time. We appreciated the respect they showed us in believing in our property and felt at all times they were acting in our best interest, being honest and open, yet professional regarding potential purchasers. We were impressed by the professionalism within the UP office too, where we were able to be fully engaged in choosing photos for the marketing material. We opted for Sale by Negotiation with this particular property , so without open homes, they brought interested parties through the house for viewing by appointment. This meant they were alongside each prospective purchaser for every viewing. Lisa and Peter made suggestions as to staging options to enhance the home without over dressing it. They gave constructive feedback after each viewing. Their team skills meant either one or two of their team were prepared to be on hand to open up the home which was viewed many times during the week as well as the weekends. We recommend Lisa, Peter and Myles Cleave as agents because of their open honesty, professionalism, communication skills, and ability to effect a sale. Aside from that they are genuinely caring people. Property sold in August 2021 2 Karori Crescent, Orakei

The decision to sell our beautiful home in St Heliers was the hardest part of the sale process. However the marketing and sale procedure was made easy thanks to the professional and personable expertise of Peter & Lisa Cleave and Jo Johnstone from UP. We were impressed with their attention to detail, clear communication with both us and potential buyers. The team worked extremely well together exemplifying a high standard of professionalism, business integrity and experience, resulting n a successful online auction. We were delighted with the outcome and would definitely use them again in the future! Enormous thanks to all of the team at Unlimited Potential! Kind Regards Leanne & Patrick. 66 Speight Road

We purchased our new house in St Heliers via the listing agents Myles Cleave and the whole Cleave team including Lisa and Peter. In-turn they listed and sold our existing home. Great people, knowledgeable and very personable. We enjoyed dealing with them and the UP team. Highly recommend them. 3 Yattendon Rd, St Heliers

Lisa, Myles and Peter Cleave sold our house at 71 Bassett Road on 30 June 2021. We had met the Cleaves a number of times over the years at open homes and had always been impressed by their professionalism and how they personally interact with buyers. When we decided to sell our family home, we knew the Cleaves would be the best people for the job - and we were proven right. They are quite simply, exceptional. The Cleaves work fantastically both as individuals and as a team, and we felt fully supported by them at all times. The auction process itself was managed expertly with full support from the UP team. Lisa, Myles and Peter were fantastic at engaging and informing buyers throughout the auction process, with a fantastic result on the day. The reporting and availability to get updates was excellent and always forthcoming. Lisa, Myles and Peter always made themselves available to us, giving us their time to answer any questions we had, or just to chat through the process in general. The entire UP Realty office style and approach was excellent. Do not underestimate their skills and expertise in preparing your home for the market. Everything is done in-house and you are fully engaged and consulted throughout the process - they really do focus on making sure you are happy with everything, but also bring decades of experience to support you all the way through. We highly recommend Lisa, Myles and Peter - be assured you will be in expert hands. David & Heather Carr 71 Bassett Road
