We have worked with Blair Cranston. We have been searching for a property for more than a year and then we met Blair at an open home. Although this was not the property we bought and exactly what we were after he took the time to listen what we were after and went out of his way to help us find a home. He has been so supportive from day one through to this day. He was instrumental with his advice on the auction up to this day where we are already living in our house and still checking up. He is highly professional and caring, I would highly recommend him to anyone. Thanks Blair.

Chris Booysen

Blair acted for us on the sale of a family property in Red Beach. After 40 odd years in the property development and investment business you get to recognize the good and the bad and Blair represents the best. Ably supported by Lily they did an outstanding job on the marketing and sale of the property and always dealt with humility and understanding backed by good industry knowledge and a quiet professional determination to succeed with a good sale and a happy client. I would unreservedly recommend both Blair and Lily to anyone seeking an experienced and talented broker for their residential property sale.

As well as his calm and collected approach to all matters, he left prospective purchasers with the distinct belief that our property was worth the price tag. His approach was honest and sincere.

Nothing is too much for him and the results speak for themselves.

From Blair’s first contact with me, there was no pressure and I felt very comfortable with him. He was very realistic about the expectations of property sales in the current market and handled all communications required with the body corporate and lawyers. I was living out of Auckland while he handled the sale of our property in Orewa. Any bits of maintenance that he felt should be undertaken, he organised on our behalf and communicated all details accurately. Having Blair for your process was like dealing with an old family friend that we trusted implicitly. I would highly recommend Blair to anyone wishing to purchase or sell a property in that region. I have purchased over 40 properties in recent years and Blair has provided the best real estate experience I’ve ever had.

Ian James Wallace

Blair Cranston from Bayleys was a key player when we bought our first home. He took time to explain and elaborate every step of the way like a teacher and gave us ideas as a mentor. Communication was prompt and simple. Witnessing Blairs passion and valuable experience through the process gave us a transparent, confident and strong understanding of what decisions are we going to make. Before liaising with Blair we just couldn't make those decisions confidently, leaving a lot of potential risk and mistakes on the table that would keep us far back in the queue. Can't beat the combination of passion and experience. We cannot thank Blair Cranston enough.

Blair was knowledgeable about the house and surrounding area, and followed through quickly with any questions I had. He helped and explained the auction system and made it seem easy and straightforward. He was always most pleasant to deal with and I’d contact him first if I ever had need of a Real Estate Agent.

June Lamont

Blair has been great throughout the process. Our property had a number of issues with leaks. His knowledge was very helpful and on point. He is a great communicator and worked really hard to get a sale over the line. We would absolutely recommend him, especially to anyone who has a problematic property like ours. He was able to realistic about what was possible but optimistic and encouraging. His experience really helped to find the right buyers. He was professional and respectful at all times and we really felt we found the right person to work with during a trying time.

Karen and Brian Ferris

We have worked with Blair Cranston. We have been searching for a property for more than a year and then we met Blair at an open home. Although this was not the property we bought and exactly what we were after he took the time to listen what we were after and went out of his way to help us find a home. He has been so supportive from day one through to this day. He was instrumental with his advice on the auction up to this day where we are already living in our house and still checking up. He is highly professional and caring, I would highly recommend him to anyone. Thanks Blair.

Chris Booysen

Blair acted for us on the sale of a family property in Red Beach. After 40 odd years in the property development and investment business you get to recognize the good and the bad and Blair represents the best. Ably supported by Lily they did an outstanding job on the marketing and sale of the property and always dealt with humility and understanding backed by good industry knowledge and a quiet professional determination to succeed with a good sale and a happy client. I would unreservedly recommend both Blair and Lily to anyone seeking an experienced and talented broker for their residential property sale.

Colin Reynolds

Blair with his years of building experience took his time to really look at our property and understand it. As well as his calm and collected approach to all matters, he left prospective purchasers with the distinct belief that our property was worth the price tag. His approach was honest and sincere. He filled us with confidence. We are sure he did the same for our buyers. Blair, we truly have enjoyed working with you

From the start of the sale process Blair kept me fully informed and up to date with all aspects and progress of the sale. He regularly updated me regarding feedback from viewings. When the negotiation process took place Blair explained the pro's and cons of each offer and explained in detail the conditions of each offer and consequences of same. I actually did nothing to facilitate this sale, Blair took care of every detail, I didn't have to worry about anything at all. Blair made this a painless and easy process. Thank you.

As first home buyers going into this process of purchasing our first home was very daunting but once we met Blair he made the process very simple and easy for us.

I cannot speak highly enough of Blair Cranston and the work done for me in selling my house. I had dealings with him when I purchased the house over three years ago, and was impressed enough then to use his skills again. I have bought and sold houses in NZ and internationally over the past years and have never engaged such a diligent and professional person as Blair. Nothing is too much for him and the results speak for themselves.

J and D Lamont Trustee Limited

We had to quickly sell our house at a very difficult time in the year. Blair believed in us and without hesitation took up the challenge. The first open home we received an offer and was able to accept so we can move faster than we thought possible. His communication is key. We're still waiting to celebrate with him though.

Shirley Anne Robinson

From Blair’s first contact with me, there was no pressure and I felt very comfortable with him. He was very realistic about the expectations of property sales in the current market and handled all communications required with the body corporate and lawyers. I was living out of Auckland while he handled the sale of our property in Orewa. Any bits of maintenance that he felt should be undertaken, he organised on our behalf and communicated all details accurately. Having Blair for your process was like dealing with an old family friend that we trusted implicitly. I would highly recommend Blair to anyone wishing to purchase or sell a property in that region. I have purchased over 40 properties in recent years and Blair has provided the best real estate experience I’ve ever had.

Ian James Wallace

Blair Cranston from Bayleys was a key player when we bought our first home. He took time to explain and elaborate every step of the way like a teacher and gave us ideas as a mentor. Communication was prompt and simple. Witnessing Blairs passion and valuable experience through the process gave us a transparent, confident and strong understanding of what decisions are we going to make. Before liaising with Blair we just couldn't make those decisions confidently, leaving a lot of potential risk and mistakes on the table that would keep us far back in the queue. Can't beat the combination of passion and experience. We cannot thank Blair Cranston enough.

Tomislav and Michelle

Blair was very professional, having to deal with an estate sale. Extremely kind to my elderly parent, explaining the process the whole way through and to us. He literally travelled miles to get a positive and excellent result . Charleen Crutchley
