“I just want to say I am absolutely wrapped with my new house, you were awesome to deal with at every point through it. You mentioned I would be sent a review for you after the fact, I never saw anything like that? The only thing I saw was for the branch as a whole.”

Great job!”

“The team at Braziers are the best agents I have had the pleasure of working with in Christchurch. Their in-depth knowledge of investment properties, cap rates and what’s happening in the market is unparalleled in the City.
Often with agents you feel like there is a hidden agenda this is not the case with my consultant. She is open, realistic and transparent. I feel like these are qualities that are hard to find in an agent.
I would recommend Braziers to anyone looking to purchase their home or an investment property. I look forward to working with them again in the future.”
Hamish C (Property Investor)
“We were fortunate to meet one of Braziers professional real estate agents in 2000 when property was in the doldrums. That encounter, invaluable advice followed by an awesome purchase put our property investing future on track. Today when we receive a Braziers newsletter everything else is put aside until each piece of information is digested. Braziers statistical and analytical data is second to none. Thanks Braziers for your ongoing support.”
Val and John Cotton (Property Investors)
“We have dealt with Braziers since 2001 as both purchasers and vendors. What has been invaluable to us is the ongoing technical support in the form of the quarterly detailed investment newsletter, and the excellent regular sales person contact. Both of these factors have been key ingredients in the growth of our portfolio.
The fact that our family now enjoy financial independence and no longer need to work, is largely due to our relationship with Braziers. We thoroughly recommend Braziers in the handling of both the sale or purchase of your property assets.”
Zane and Jasmine Adam (Professional Landlords)
“My wife and I have been residential property investors in the Christchurch market for many years. During that time, Tony Brazier and his team have provided much valuable advice and service. In our view, particular strengths of Braziers are their website and the very informative newsletter. We always look forward to the newsletter for its overview of the market together with specific data and often also a relevant article by an outside commentator. At the time of writing we are marketing one of our properties through Braziers, and can recommend them with confidence to other investors.”
Christopher Seeley, PhD (Investor)
“I first used Braziers in 2003 and in the years since then I have bought and sold a number of properties through them. I have always found them to be extremely knowledgeable. No matter whether I am selling or buying their level of expertise is second to none. I run the property development arm of a charitable company here in Christchurch. I have always found Tony Brazier and his team to be extremely sympathetic to our needs and only happy to help us in any way they can. I greatly appreciate their professional manner and will continue to go to them first for my property requirements in the future.”
Ross Gilray (Director, CLR Developments)
“We have enjoyed the services of Braziers since 1999. Why do we like having business with them? In addition to their spotless professionalism and integrity, they possess profound knowledge of the local residential investment market and always give us an unbiased opinion on market situations and trends. We remember discussions with them, some seven-eight years ago, about future changes and developments in the residential investment business. It is amazing to see, from todays position, how correct their medium and long-term arguments and predictions were. Having their good advice and doing business with Braziers made a very positive and significant impact on our investment career.”
Leonid and Lena Itskovich (Dr. of Engineering)
“After our inquiring about a particular property Braziers sent us the Newsletter and after reading the first one we looked forward to continuing to receive these. This is most unusual for us to actually read, (and read thoroughly) an advertising newsletter. The fact based articles, the graphs, the sales and rent tables for all suburbs and the no excuses type statements of opinion articles were all good. When we had enough of being landlords (in a very small way), Braziers advice was to hang on for another year, then before that year was up, to hold on for a bit longer. Then a few months later, the advice was to now sell because we would certainly now make a good capital gain. We took the advice and within days excellent offers came in, the pros and cons of each offer were discussed with a Braziers rep and a satisfactory sale was made. Further, we have had no regrets. Thank you.”
Ian E Wilson (Private Investor)
“Over the years we have purchased several investment properties from Braziers Ltd. As we were new to purchasing investment properties we were most grateful for their expertise, knowledge, professionalism and negotiation skills. We enjoy their extensive property portfolio, (making them the market leaders in investment property in Christchurch) and regular market updates which we find interesting and particularly useful when setting our rental levels inline with those in our local area. We therefore will continue to utilize the excellent services of Braziers Ltd in the future for all of our property investment needs.”
Brett Smith (Company Manager)
“Over the past 11 years I have had an on going business relationship with Braziers. I have found their representatives and agents to be co-operative and professional at all times in our dealings. They have always been able to keep me updated with respective property sales of my properties and have always dealt with me with the ethos “I am acting for the vendor at all times”. On many occasions Brazier staff have gone the extra distance and provided expert opinion and service beyond their normal business requirements. I have no hesitation in recommending their professional services.”
Tim McCardle (Estate Manager)
“As a client of Braziers I have had a number of transactions both buying and, most recently, selling. I have found Braziers to be very professional and found it reassuring to deal with people who have a good understanding of investment property. I recently sold a property in a difficult market, however I was happy with the price achieved and the whole process went very smoothly.
The Brazier Property Management division have also managed my property for about 5 years and I have found vacancies have been low, tenant’s happy and good communication when it comes time to get the cheque book out.”
Hamish Galletly
“I recently decided to sell my home in Woodend, North Canterbury, and was recommended to choose Braziers. This I duly did and signed a contract with Braziers and one of their sales consultants. The listing period was for 60 days and during that time I must commend Braziers on their attention to detail regarding marketing strategy for this property, their attentiveness to my request and opinions and the delightful way they treated my wife and I, and their clients during inspections of my home.
The resulting outcome was a very positive cash sale within the prescribed period. I would therefore highly recommend Braziers to any prospective property purchaser or seller.”
Ian Brooklands
“I found my sales consultant and Braziers very professional, and a pleasure to deal with throughout the whole transaction. If buying or selling in the future it is likely I will want to use my Braziers sales consultant to market or purchase a property and recommend Braziers and the selling team.”
Stephen Dyer (Company Director)
“Brazier’s honest and straight-up professional manner was something that we really appreciated. Our sales consultant talked us through the process and advised us of the right time to sell, which we followed and reaped the benefits of his advice. I will certainly return to Braziers.”
Paul Collings (Branch Manager)
“We would like to thank our sales consultant formally for the wonderful job she did selling our property. Prior to listing with Braziers we employed one of the supposedly leading real estate firms in Christchurch. Unfortunately the formulaic approach taken by this agent did not meet the needs of our unique property.
Thank goodness we met the team at Braziers!! The market research and marketing strategy they employed was thorough and had flare, freshness and creativity, and our agent never stopped believing she would find someone who loved our property as much as we did.
As we live in Hong Kong we relied on our agent to keep us updated regularly and to present our property in the best possible light. Our sales agent at Braziers performed way beyond our expectations and went that extra mile by lighting fires, providing afternoon teas and live music to create the right ambience during open days. Braziers communicated with us regularly and was incredibly easy to relate to.
At all times through out the sales process Braziers demonstrated enthusiasm, commitment, professionalism and tenacity. You couldn’t ask for anything more!
We recommend Braziers highly and would not hesitate to employ their services again.”
Brendan and Kathy Oliver-Kerby
“I have used Brazier Properties for the past 10 years and have always been more than impressed with the services of their friendly and approachable sales consultants. I have found that Braziers provide a no-hassle transaction with easy communication throughout the whole process. Braziers and the selling team are a pleasure to deal with.”
Vicki Smith
“Braziers constantly stayed in touch with us throughout the whole process. Perhaps most importantly, they provided sound unbiased advice and guidance with regards to our property investment. We would thoroughly recommend Braziers to anyone looking to invest or purchase a property in the future.”
I Walker
“We were very happy with the professionalism of our sales consultant and the Braziers property investment team. They were approachable and always very responsive to any needs and questions we had. We would recommend them as specialists in property investment with pleasure.”
Anne and Chris Wildey (Property Investors)
“Their knowledge of the real estate market and close associations with key players in the Christchurch property industry mean they are able to streamline their service, minimise time wasting clients and disruption to tenants and stakeholders. They get straight to the point and don’t muck around. They understand I don’t want a hard sell and they make the whole process – I would use them again”
Zane Adam ( Investor)
“I cannot speak highly enough of Graeme’s manner and expertise. We were selling on behalf of our elderly mum who had just gone into care.
Graeme gained our trust and confidence immediately and was more than happy to work with family out of town.
Graeme obviously enjoys people and is dedicated to working toward the best outcome for all. He offered sound advice and gave his honest opinion as to how to best prepare the house for sale. He was very thorough and could be relied upon to always follow through. This was a real relief at a busy and stressful time.
The house sold for a great price within a few days with no surprises or costly delays. A wonderful outcome!”
Frances Kelcher
“We chose Ian Hood to be our Real Estate agent on the recommendation of a friend. We have been thoroughly satisfied with the professional service we have received. Ian has worked very hard to help us get a great price and to ensure a straight forward transfer process. Thank you.”
Lisa Tatterson
“I have worked with Graeme Kerr several times over the years and he is always professional. He is a great communicator and kept us informed and up to date on what was happening with the sale of property. His friendly and engaging manner is appreciated and makes him very easy to deal with. All the properties he has sold for me including the most recent have sold quite promptly and this is because Graeme has amazing follow through with interested clients and always makes you feel like you are a priority, despite his busy workload. Thank you Graeme, it has been a pleasure to work with you again.”
Stephanie Cook
“Braziers team of Graeme and Matt sold my house in Cashmere, Christchurch this month. I could not have expected better or more experienced committed service. Unreservedly recommended.”
Jack Watt
“Braziers were really good to work with. They worked hard to understand our property and get it in shape ready for a quick sale. Price by negotiation took a bit of stress out of the process which was great. Would happily recommend.”
