We look forward to being of service.
Pat was transparent, honest, trustworthy and kept his word. Thank you for what you have done for us; you made the process truly quite fun. We appreciated your approach; it was never rushed or stressful. We were overseas for the sale period and Pat managed all of the ins and outs including organising contractors on our behalf. Everything was done that we expected (and to our high standards!!)...nothing was a problem. Pat also came with a wealth of knowledge - that in the end achieved a result that only experience can do.
Thanks again, it is true what people say!! Best house sale process we have had.
Dan
Pat has done a fantastic job. Very relatable and top knowledge of the market. Was able to deal with any issues quickly and efficiently. Highly recommended and would not hesitate to use Pat and his team again.
Jill & Paul Barron
Pat and Amy were absolutely brilliant to work with. They were professional, responsive, and really easy to deal with throughout the whole process. Nothing was ever a problem, and they were always on hand to answer questions and keep things moving. They clearly know their stuff, but more than that, they genuinely cared about making things as smooth and straightforward as possible for us. We’re really grateful for their help and would absolutely recommend them to anyone.
Morwenna & Sam Vye
Pat was acting for the selling agent, and I was not using an agent. He was very quick to respond to my questions (or to find answers if he did not have them) and to get me access to the apartment as needed. He was very friendly and made me and my family who were looking with me feel comfortable in the viewing process.
Susan Ranger
He was an absolute pleasure to work with—he really listened to what we were aiming to achieve and never pressured us to deviate from our goals. His communication was always clear and concise, and we truly appreciated his honest and constructive feedback throughout the process. Thanks again, and I’m looking forward to working with you all again in the future.
Darren Merrick
Awesome service, nothing was a problem. Pat's market knowledge and advice on selling our house and standing with us on the purchase of our new home at auction was invaluable.
Glenn Nightingale
Pat was very easy to deal with. His appraisal was accurate, dealing with him is so easy and nothing is ever a problem for him. His relaxed approach to selling helps take the edge of what can be a very stressful time. We were very happy with the outcome of our sale and would definitely recommend Pat to anyone.
Rebecca
Pat was great to work with, very knowledgeable and helpful. Would recommend to anyone looking for an 'on to it agent'.
Denise Cheese
We really enjoyed working with Pat. He was a breath of fresh air compared to the usual pushy real estate agents we had come across previously. We appreciated his relaxed but honest approach to selling the house.
Todd Halliday
Pat and his team were organised and easy to deal with. They arranged staging for our property and kept us informed via weekly updates. Decided to sell via auction (as Pat advised) and were very happy with the result!
Liz
Pat made the purchasing process really smooth. He was very accommodating whenever I wanted to view the property a couple of times before the auction.
Hillary Entwistle
Pat King is an intelligent, highly capable, and relatable real estate professional. He understood our specific needs, and he assisted us beautifully to find unique solutions to technical issues we encountered. Pat used his networking strengths to not only assist us with a property sale, but he also sourced the perfect new property for us to move to. Despite tight timeframes and a difficult market, we were successful in our sale and new purchase with Pat leading the way. Thanks mate. If you choose him, you'll be looked after professionally, yet feel like you've made an old friend.
Kaye Maree van der Straten
Pat was the epitome of professionalism, ensuring the house-selling process went smoothly for us. He offered a clear and realistic perspective on the market and was always quick to communicate throughout the open home process. Additionally, Pat went the extra mile in assisting us with securing our future home.
Jeet Raval
Was kept informed about everything that was going on. Pat made the whole experience as easy as possible.
Michael Bowker
We had a great experience selling our home with Pat and his team]! Their professionalism, clear communication, and genuine care made the entire process stress-free and smooth. They went above and beyond to ensure everything was handled perfectly, and their knowledge of the market was spot on. We felt truly supported every step of the way. Highly recommend Pat and the team to anyone looking to sell their home with confidence!
Sandy Toner
Pat and Yolande took us through every step of the selling process, consulting with us as to how we wanted to market our property, whilst giving us their expert advice as to the best ways of presenting and offering the property to fit our prospective buyer. It has been a tough market, and their communication was open and honest, and they went above and beyond to get us a great result in the end. Professional and personable we recommend them 100%.
Gavin and Karlie Morrow
We had met Pat many times over the last 2-3 years as we were looking to buy in the Mount area. Regardless of the numerous open homes we went to he was always friendly, answered all our questions and followed up, we probably seemed to be the ultimate tyre kickers, but Pat was helpful and transparent through the entire purchase process when we finally found our new home. He has superb knowledge of the local area real estate history. Great to deal with and highly recommended.
Colin Sinton
Pat was easy to deal with and made the process of buying very smooth. After the sale he went beyond his job and took the time to meet my trades, I needed estimates from into the property for me, so I didn't have to travel from the Waikato. I highly rate pat.
Brad Hancock
We had an amazing experience selling our home with Pat and Yolande from King + Co. Their communication was clear and consistent throughout the process, and they offered advice at every stage. Thanks to their expertise, we achieved a fantastic result. We couldn’t be happier and highly recommend them to anyone looking to sell their property!
Nicole and Bronson Tuporo
Pat was a very safe and efficient pair of hands. Excellent salesperson that gets the job done with no stress.
Kate Coombridge
Pat was very knowledgeable and helpful. His communication with us and the vendor was excellent.
Will and Zoe
Pat was very knowledgeable - he assisted us immensely with comparable data stats, other options and negotiations all the way through.
Nathan
Pat did a great job selling our property. He did open homes rain or shine even though the market was tough. He is good at his job cheerful friendly and communicated well.
Graeme
I found my dealings with Pat to be excellent in all aspects - written & verbal communication he went above and beyond; Pat knew the market extremely well and I could not fault the professional manner he conducted himself at all times. Pat worked to a tight time frame when marketing my home and did that with the utmost integrity. Huge thanks you to Pat and his team.
Frances
3 week campaign. Deadline sale with 8 offers on the day. Fantastic price!! Pat is professional, warm and caring and really knows his stuff. He is trustworthy and great at building relationships. The BEST!!
Jo and Phil
Very happy with the result. The whole process was simple and went smoothly and the service was great. Thanks for all your work!
Jane Williams
My house in Mt Maunganui was sold by Pat King recently with the minimum of fuss. Pat's advice was given in a professional but friendly manner, and his knowledge of the local market was excellent. It was a pleasure to deal with Pat, and I would certainly deal with him again.
Mia Huymans
Great service and follow up
Sam Elliot
The seller was on a deadline, and I was waiting on funds to arrive. Pat found a way to get it sorted. I believe all parties were very happy with the outcome.
Jeroen van der Beek
I have engaged Pat several times over the years to sell my properties, always with success. Pat's friendly and helpful approach, together with his support crew effort, is what I want from an agent. Great job Pat and thanks again.
Brent Bourgeois
Was really great to have Pat and his team sell our home for us. We moved cities so huge move for our family. Pat was really awesome to deal with. He knew exactly what we needed to market our home and gave good advice for anything we asked. And nothing was a silly question. He definitely made the whole process much more easier. Just a real genuine guy too. Thanks so much Pat for all your work. We very much appreciate it
Shaun and Mell Lyes
We had a positive experience working with Pat during our home purchase. His personal approach made the process relatively stress free given the complexity of the sale process.
Amiel & Stephanie Bougen
Pat was great to deal with in the purchase of our home, he made the process feel easy and stress-free while ensuring everything was completed professionally and in a timely manner. We would absolutely seek Pat out for any property dealings we have in future.
Paul and Sass Innes
We really enjoyed working with Pat, it was a difficult time selling our Dad's house and he was empathetic and genuine through the whole process. Gave us great advice and we were very happy with the result. We'll go back to Pat in the future if we were looking to sell it again.
Tim Searle
Pat has an excellent knowledge of the local area/market. My home needed work done - deck painted, bathroom painted, carpet stretched/cleaned, windows cleaned etc. He knew tradesmen and it was all completed within a week, and the house was on the market. I was kept in constant touch re: people shown through both ad HOC and at open homes. I felt very fortunate to have such a quick sale as it was just at the beginning of the downturn. At that time Pat also had a great secretary who too was really helpful helping an older lady with the vagaries of selling her home. I have no hesitation in recommending Pat (and his team) to other vendors for the sale of their biggest asset.
Carol Butler
Pat & Nicole were fantastic from start to finish. Awesome communication, great advertising and an all-round fast sale. Thanks again 🙂
Rebecca Sutcliffe
Great working with Pat and the team to achieve a successful sale. Being out of town, we appreciated the extra effort Pat put in to ensure the property was ready for the market. Pat’s excellent negotiating skills and great customer service ensured the process achieved the desired outcome. Totally recommend, 5 stars.
Craig and Debbie Trent
Thank you to team King – Pat, Yolande & Tara for selling our property in Papamoa Beach. Your professionalism, courtesy, advice and honesty were first class, you kept us informed every step of the way.
We were delighted with the way our property was presented to the market which clearly attracted the right buyers and resulted in a sale at Auction. The Open Homes were well managed and the feedback we received from potential buyers was thorough & consistent. We received a high level of service at all times thus ensuring that the sale proceeded as smoothly as possible.
We were particularly impressed with great communication between yourselves & fellow Eves agents who presented our property to potential buyers outside of the open home viewings. Notification was always well organised with swift feedback after each viewing.
We would happily recommend to anyone wanting to sell their property in the Bay.
Christopher & Evelyn
As you know, you came highly recommended to us from a close family member. It would be the best advice that we could have taken.
The whole time you kept us fully up to date, especially since one of us resides overseas. You have listened to us, and without pressure, guided us through the whole experience.
Thank you for your excellent Marketing Plan and your commitment to getting the result we achieved. I would recommend Pat to anyone buying or selling their home.
Well done and thank you both.
Sandy Bowers and Janet Kingsford
Pat was recommended by several people before we choose to use him as our agent, and I would recommend him again. Being both organised and professional as well as relaxed and totally approachable made Pat a pleasure to deal with. The buyers even commented to us what a nice agent he was.
Thanks so much.
Philippa and Ben
Damon & I would like to thank Pat & Yolande for selling our house.
Pat was committed, very professional and easy to deal with. Excellent communication and Pat went the extra mile to assist us with the land we wanted to purchase. We really appreciated this.
We were very happy with the outcome from the sale of our home and we would certainly not hesitate in recommending Pat & Yolande in the future.
Thanks again.
Phillippa Hall & Damon Page
Peter and I found Pat King extremely helpful and knowledgeable. Pat's guidance as to how and when to market our property was much appreciated. As we don't live at the Mount, Pat was our eyes and ears there and we quickly built up a high level of trust with Pat. We were both pleased and surprised that Pat did everything he said he would and in the timeframe he said he would.
Peter and Lynne Hemsley
Dear Yolande, Thank you so much for your dedication and commitment in your efforts to sell our home. I had my home overpriced (because it means so much to me) and the market was very flat and getting worse by the day. You did not give up and achieved the desired result - that SOLD sign we were hanging out to see. Thank you again. I will recommend you highly to my friends if needed.
279 Range Road
We mainly dealt with Pat and have found him friendly, honest, patient, timely, and easy to deal with. Any requests we made of him were always completed quickly and without us feeling like we were of a burden to him. He always responded quickly to phone calls, emails and texts. His feedback from potential purchasers was always done quickly and left us knowing where things were at, whether it was what we wanted to hear or not. In the end Pat secured a sale for us which was in line with the pricing expectations he had initially discussed with us. He also took the time to take us to various houses to view to buy and helped us secure our new house. In our dealings with Yolande, she was always very friendly and interested in our property, and we were left with the feeling that she was completely up to speed with the sale process even though Pat was primarily dealing with it. We would have no hesitation in recommending Pat and Yolande to anyone.
Gavin Goodjohn and Catherine Morley
Right from the onset/first time we met both Pat and Yolande we felt at ease. They both listened carefully and gave us the time we needed - with no pressure or commitment required. We have taken our time in purchasing a property due to many personal reasons and have probably let a few opportunities pass us by, but Pat and Yolande never let that bother them, they were patient and forgiving! We believe that the help we received, impartial advice and patience we were shown is second to none. Thanks Pat and Yolande.
59C Concord Ave
What a nice guy Pat King is. Always polite, down-to-earth, reliable and did what he said, making selling our house a pleasure. I would recommend Pat to anyone buying or selling their home.
Malcolm Hogg
My wife and I have sold a number of apartments through Pat King and Yolande and I would not go anywhere else. What can I say - they have a very high degree of professionalism in their field - had a very good rapport with tenants during the marketing phase, kept us informed during all stages of the sales process and both are a great young couple to work with. In the current environment selling property can be hard work but they both showed the commitment necessary to achieve an outcome that was close to expectation.
Well done and thank you both.
Geoff Mathis
Pat and Yolande King were nothing short of outstanding in their efforts to source a new home for us, negotiate a fair purchase price and guide us throughout the whole process. The gift from them at the end was somewhat embarrassing, as we should have been the ones saying thanks with a gift.
We have no hesitation in recommending Pat and Yolande to sellers and purchasers. They are totally honest, reliable, not the slightest bit 'pushy' and just so nice to deal with.
Brent and Tracey Bourgeois, Mt Maunganui
We would like to express our sincere appreciation to Yolande and Pat for the way in which they handled the selling of our holiday apartment at Mt Maunganui.
We live in Auckland and the thought of selling from a distance seemed overwhelming. However, we need not have had any concerns, from the moment we decided to sell, having discussed with Yolande various options available, we left the selling process in their very capable hands.
From advertising, open homes and the auction, they took control. They consulted with us at every step ensuring we not only understood the process, but were happy with what was taking place, giving us feedback on a regular basis from their meetings and open homes. We always felt Yolande and Pat were working for us.
Both Yolande and Pat were happy to answer any questions we put to them. Due to their commitment and professionalism our property sold in a matter of weeks. Our thanks to you both.
Val and John Fullard, Auckland
Hello Pat and Yolande
Just wanted to thank you so much for the great work you did selling our home at 350 Ocean beach Road.
You helped us understand the local market place and greatly assisted with structuring an advertising campaign to keep our property top-of-mind. This factor, I believe, turned out to be to be the catalyst that delivered the perfect purchaser.
Your professionalism and generous attendance at the weekly open homes created the urgency that ensured our purchaser made a fair and immediate decision. I look forward to you helping us again when the opportunity arises.
Top marks.
Bruce McCutcheon
When I sold my property at Mount Maunganui recently, Pat King was my agent. I found him to be very professional, helpful and honest. He communicated well with me, keeping me informed of progress and giving me regular feedback from open homes. I have pleasure in recommending Pat as a Real Estate agent.
Bev Kirk, Katikati
We would like to commend pat and Yolande on their dedication to their clients. It isn't always easy to sell your home, particularly in this market, but they kept the faith. Pat worked mainly on our sale, and he was dedicated, always sending back feedback quickly and made the whole stressful time, so much easier.
A huge thank you from us.
Raewyne & Harry Tawa (August 2012)
Her incredible professionalism and expertise meant that we could narrow down what we wanted quickly - she just got it - and her approachability enabled us to gain access to properties that met our requirements in a very short time frame.
She kept us informed of options at all times and it is because of her efforts that we got the house at the top of our list - which is now proudly our family home.
When it came to selling our parents home we wanted an agent that would tell us the reality of the market situation vs trying to get the listing - so we went to Pat and Yolande. Having purchased our house through them and seeing how hard they work for their clients we knew they would help us through the process. Whilst the area wasn't within their direct selling territory - they introduced us to John Rose who was just great - and they kept across things at all time - even coming to the auction.
If you want an agent that does what they say they will with a refreshing level of integrity and professionalism we couldn't recommend Pat and Yolande more highly. Thank you.
Tania Bui
Dear Yolande,
Thank you for marketing and selling our property. Both Ann and myself appreciate your friendly and professional manner and the extra effort we know you put into the selling of our home of 33 years. I particularly liked the home and gardens. Thank you and the Eves team for your assistance to a successful sale.
Yours faithfully
Ann and Calvin Law

We were so pleased we chose Pat & Yolande to market & sell our property. We appreciated their enthusiasm & nothing is too hard attitude as different problems arose. They work so well as a team & kept us up to date on all the activity. We have no hesitation in highly recommending them.
J Ritchie
Our family were all involved in the decision making regarding an agent. We all agreed on Patrick and what a good choice we made. He kept us informed regularly and professionally throughout the marketing period. He stood with us through the auction and we were delighted with the outcome. We would certainly refer Patrick to our friends and colleagues.
Iris and Garth Hewetson (December 2012)
We recently bought a property at Auction which Pat King was marketing. Even though we have had experience in the industry we still required a salesperson to represent us with the buying process.
Pat ticked all the box's we required including supplying us with all necessary documentation to allow us to bid. He had a sound knowledge of the area and was able to answer all our concerns. He was professional with his dealings both before and after the auction process. We have no hesitation in recommending him as your Salesperson.
Jan Wilson and Robert Skelton (December 2012)
When I sold my property at Mount Maunganui recently, Pat King was my agent. I found him to be very professional, helpful and honest. He communicated well with me, keeping me informed of progress and giving me regular feedback from open homes. I have pleasure in recommending Pat.
Bev Kirk (January 2013)
We were referred to Pat Z& Yolande King, we found them extremely professional and great communicators. We set them the task to find potential investment properties to add to our portfolio. They were attentive to our needs and provided us with some excellent investment opportunities. We successfully purchased three good investments, thanks to the effort and support from both of them. We will continue working with them in the future.
Mt Mauao Investments Limited (January 2013)
Peter & I found Pat extremely helpful and knowledgeable. Pat's guidance with regard to how and when to market our property was much appreciated, as we don't live in the Mount we quickly built a high level of trust with Pat. We were both pleased and surprise that Pat did everything he said he would an in the time frame he said he would. This is our third property we have sold in the last 12 months & this was not the experience with the other properties.

Val and John Fullard (July 2013)
Both buying and selling was made easy by working with Pat and Yolande King. They knew we were considering selling, but we weren't even on the market when they approached us with a buyer that they knew was a good match for our home. After selling they helped us find our next home in quick time what was exactly what we were after. They were incredibly helpful throughout the whole process, which went seamlessly and couldn't have been easier. I recommend them highly
