Our company specialises in all areas of real estate from residential, northline and commercial sales and marketing, to leasing and investment. The record growth in market share by Metro Realty and its dominance in the Dunedin property scene has been the result of years of dedication and determination. Marketing innovations such as the Properties Today section of the Otago Daily Times, inhouse magazine and their mid-week open home service are evidence of this. Metro s outstanding track record includes achieving record prices in many Dunedin suburbs and consistently setting new benchmarks in our highly competitive market.

If you are considering selling the Metro team would love the opportunity to talk with you and show you why more Dunedin people choose Metro to sell their homes.

6 Personal testimonials In the last 5 years my wife and I have had 3 property dealings with Craig Palmer and Metro Realty. In 1999 when we first bought in Dunedin we were pleased that of all the real estate agents I contacted that Craig got the sale. He understood what we were looking for and in the brief time we had to look at houses he only showed us properties which were very close to our needs. As we visited each house we expressed our opinion and he was listening, refining the brief we have given him. With each property we were getting closer to the mark and within a dozen houses he found us a house we decided to buy (which wasn t even being advertised at the time). Once the sale was completed he introduced us to an architect who helped us modify the house. Two years later we employed Craig to sell my mothers house in what turned out to be a very difficult market. Nevertheless Craig was unfailingly courteous and optimistic no matter how demoralising it must have been to run open homes when nobody came. Eventually it was sold but Craig really worked for the commission on that one. We have now sold the house we bought in 1999 through Craig. Thankfully the market had changed for the better and he achieved a good price within 2 weeks of listing. Again we were impressed by the calm and efficient way in which the sale process was conducted by Craig and thrilled by the professional quality of the advertising put together by Craig and his wife Jill. So in the end a rapid sale was no surprise. While the real estate market in Dunedin seems to be fairly hot right now Craig remained calm and courteous throughout. He is well attuned to the state of the market and gave good advice regarding what to do to sell the house to improve it sale prospects and at price to sell. In the last 5 years we have also had 4 other property transactions outside Dunedin and while they didn t involve Craig, it does mean we do have experience of how other agents operate. Believe us Craig is very good at what he does. - Bill Hunter Craig has been involved in the sale of three of my family homes and sold us our last home in Wallace Street. I have referred Craig to numerous friends and businesses acquaintances over the years. I have no hesitation in recommending him to any prospective vendor. I am happy to confirm this by telephone. - Brian Foley My wife and I invited Craig Palmer from Metro Realty to market our Butler Street, Maori Hill property. We chose Craig to represent us as our real estate agent because we had observed over time Craig s success in the local residential market. We also believe that Craig had a well developed knowledge of the Maori Hill area. We found Craig to be a good communicator who kept us well informed at all time. - Bill Veitch

7 Personal testimonials To say we would highly recommend Craig Palmer would be a gross understatement. Throughout the sale and purchase of our homes Craig s professionalism was exceptional. We were kept well informed during the process. We believe without Craig Palmer as our real estate agent we simply would not be living in the house we fell in love with. Craig went out of his way to make the deal happen for us, eliminating us from the stress that normally goes with buying and selling property. We believe the measure of any salesperson is their conduct after the sale has been completed (after sales service) another in which Craig has excelled. - Chris & Cheree Henderson Craig gave me confidence and relieved me of stress as I faced the enormous decision to sell my much loved home. I shall always be grateful for the care and genuine professional manner in which the deal took place. - Beverley Reid Craig carries out all of his responsibilities with honesty, integrity and sincerity. His successful sales record is a very good reflection of this commitment and the professional manner in which he carries out his job. - Marion Hogg Craig has a sound knowledge of selling real estate, and is a good communicator, keeping the vendor well informed at all times. - Peter Dick Lynley and I were very impressed with the professional way in which you dealt with the sale of our old home and purchase of our new one. If I am asked in the future to recommend for any reason a real estate firm I would have no hesitation in suggesting Metro Realty. Thank you for your help, understanding, support and cooperation during our stressful time. - S J O Driscoll (Judge)
