We commissioned Sandy Warren and Haven Realty to sell the property adjoining our own.


The result we achieved was truly outstanding and far exceeded our expectations. We couldn’t have been happier. Sandy worked extremely hard on our behalf – the strategy she recommended worked like a dream. She negotiated very skilfully with the tenants in the house to ensure maximum exposure. This could have been a very fraught situation but she handled it beautifully.


We can’t speak highly enough of her skill, experience, wisdom and integrity. In 7 days we had a sale.


Thanks Sandy and team Haven. Would thoroughly recommend you to anyone selling their house. You made it very easy for us.

Tash is Brilliant!

Tash has been absolutely brilliant throughout the whole house buying experience (as we are new to the NZ ways). She has been in touch daily to let us know what’s going on and where we were every step of the way. Tash has gone out of her way to let me look at the house again after the earthquake and has been very informative. Tash makes the UK realestate agents look like amateurs and from us both we would like to say a very big THANK YOU.

Hello Haven Realty


Now that the sale of our property has been finalised, settled and “paid for”, we wish to thank the whole team at Haven Realty for a superb job. Your sales campaign and communication has been excellent and we would have no hesitation in recommending Haven Realty to anyone looking for a real estate agent.


We do, however, want to single out Sandy Warren for her friendly and professional service. She is the main reason we returned to Haven Realty to sell Tasman Street, because she helped us through the initial buying process.


Thank you again – if we do buy another property in Nelson, you will be our first port of call.


Kind regards

We were very pleased with our dealings with Glenda.  She was very professional and helpful throughout the whole process of us looking for and purchasing a home.  She was the first agent we visited when we started out and amazingly she said she had the perfect home for us but it wouldn’t be on the market for another two weeks.


She obviously has a good eye for what fits different people because she was so right, we purchased it!  Thank you so much Glenda.

Having recently sold our property using Haven Realty as our agents we wish to make the following comments:


Firstly your agent Glenda Buschl was “spot on” in all aspects of the sale procedure.  A short sharp campaign using the “Deadline Sale” method produced an outstanding result.  Having 5 open days in only 3 weeks resulted in an above average number of viewers.


During this period Glenda gave us fantastic service and always the feeling that we were the only couple she was working for.  She was always able to discuss any questions we had and kept us informed about open day visits.


We would have no hesitation in recommending Glenda as a hard working, reliable and ‘switched on’ salesperson.

There is never an easy time to leave your home. And our situation was no exception as we were both unwell and needed to go into a rest home. The thought of it was daunting with all the paperwork, legalities and the move itself.


Together we chose Haven Realty and our agent Sandy Warren. And then things just fell into place. Sandy worked closely with our daughter, always with a smile and exceptionally efficiently. There was nothing for us to worry about as everything was in hand. The outcome of the sale couldn’t have been better.

Without her advice the sale would probably not have proceeded.  We are grateful for her support and would not hesitate to recommend Glenda to any prospective home buyer in the future.

Sandy Warren is definitely the saleswoman to sell your home. After interviewing a few agents I chose Sandy. Over the three week selling period she was extremely focused and very enthusiastic about choosing the very best solution for any situation.


She was considerate in bringing buyers, in groups, by appointment to view my home on the riverbank.


She was always cheerful, always punctual, and kept me informed all the time.


The deadline sale brought five offers. I was delighted with the winning offer encouraged all the way by Sandy.

We first met Tanea when we were looking as prospective purchasers and I was taken with her friendly, helpful but non “pushy” approach. When we came to sell I initially hesitated wondering if Tanea’s apparent low key personable manner might not suit our property but how she proved me wrong! Tanea ended up selling not only our property but a neighbouring property as well and also secured the sale of our purchasers’ property enabling our sale to proceed. Even though we had a good contract which seemed likely to proceed Tanea wasn’t happy to rest on her laurels and secured a backup just in case.


I will certainly recommend Tanea to friends and contacts as a fantastic agent with a ready smile and helpful manner which endears her to vendors and purchasers alike.

This is the first property I have ever owned apart from one other property a couple of months before was the only other property I looked at with an open home.  The contrast was amazing.  Glenda was extremely helpful answering my questions, she was honest about the property and possible problems ie the other open home when there were clearly issues with the home the agent (different company) pretended there was nothing wrong when it clearly had dampness issues and other foundation issues!  Glenda was prompt in replying to emails or getting back to phone messages.  She was friendly and I would highly recommend her and use her if I ever thought of selling.  (I’ve already been telling people about her.)  I was really impressed with her ‘go the extra mile’ attitude.  Altogether a great experience!
