Communications were clear and honest, we were guided yet supported and given time and space to make our own decisions. Mike has a deep knowledge of the Franklin area and market forces. He helps people to set realistic achievable prices and works alongside them to achieve their goals.

Very professional and fought for us to get the best price. I would highly recommend Mike and his team.

I was under severe anxiety, facing distressing personal circumstances, however Mike's professional and calm attitude helped me immensely. His practical advice on getting the house prepared for sale took a huge weight of my shoulders and everything fell into place smoothly without a hitch.

We really appreciate all the work you did for us. Your communication was amazing, letting us know what was going on at all times! You told us at the beginning to trust the process, and while we may have fallen off the wagon and been a bit unsure of it at times, the process absolutely worked in our favour! We would recommend you in a heartbeat, the same way we had three parties recommend you to us. You are a genuine person, keen to help however you can.

From the outset we could tell that the Murphy Team was a very well oiled machine. We had a communication channel set-up day one, and one of the team was always available to respond in a super timely manner. They kept us well informed and involved throughout the whole process. The major highlight for us was the sheer hard work and effort the team put in. We needed to sell our current house in order to buy our next house, and unfortunately a competing bid came in on the house we wanted to purchase. This meant we had an incredibly strict deadline (less than 5 days) in which to sell our house if we wanted to buy the next house we were interested in. The Murphy Team moved heaven and earth in order to drum up interest and find potential buyers, and thankfully they were able to do this for us. All in all, the team were amazing to deal with. Super communicative, always available and open to questions and helping guide us through the process.

Great team that anticipates every single obstacle and proactive in coming up with solutions tailored to unique challenges. Very professional and thoughtful, throughout the process I felt like they had exceptional market knowledge that led to a favourable outcome.

Excellent communication and excellent help. Strong market knowledge.

I feel incredibly grateful to have had support from Sharleen Buchanan alongside Team Murphy. Sharleen's experience, passion for real estate and encouragement empowered me as a first home buyer to know that I was making a well informed and smart purchase - a place to call home and an asset for the future. She was incredibly supportive and provided me with a wealth of solid advice. Alongside Sharleen, Spencer Menzies was also great to work with, prompt with replies to my questions and going the extra mile to liaise with the vendors to organise valuations/builders reports/additional viewings in a tight time frame. Without both of their support I may not have been in a position to bid on auction day. Buying your first home can be a stressful experience, but the professionalism, communication, and encouragement from Sharleen and from Team Murphy made the journey so much smoother. I'm so grateful for everything they did to help me achieve this milestone and would highly recommend them to anyone looking for an experienced, supportive, and trustworthy real estate team.

Mike and his team were great to work with. Organised, kept us up to date and quickly responded to any questions we had. We were thrown a few curveballs but this was taken in stride. Friendly, professional and knowledgeable. They also helped us secure a price for our new home.

They always return calls and texts, keep you informed through the process. Answer questions promptly regarding the property or the sale.

We had an exceptional experience working with Mike and the Murphy Team during the sale of our home. Mike demonstrated deep market knowledge and understanding, excellent communication, and absolute professionalism. It is clear that Mike leads a seamless operation, his team worked incredibly well alongside him to prepare our home for the market, providing invaluable guidance on landscaping, coordinated an innovative staging, and delivered high-quality photo and videography that truly made our property stand out. Mike and his team kept us informed at every step and delivered on all commitments. For a reliable, experienced agent backed by a stellar team, we highly recommend Team Murphy.

Knowledge: right from our initial meeting, Mike gave us confidence that he possessed the skills to achieve the very best result for us. He demonstrated excellent market knowledge and approaches to marketing. His marketing strategies worked perfectly, and we sold under the hammer on auction day. Communications: excellent both verbal and written. Immediate message updates following each Open Home, detailed written weekly reports and progress meetings with Mike and auctioneer. Relations with Mike's wider team were also excellent with a very effective communication process set up specifically for our sale. Negotiation Skills: Mike demonstrated a deep understanding of prevailing market conditions and employed excellent strategies. In very difficult market conditions Mike worked expertly with the auctioneer to produce an excellent outcome for us on auction day. Professionalism: It is very apparent that Mike has an in-depth understanding of all aspects of the Real Estate business and is a very experienced professional. Mike's advice and guidance through the marketing strategies and processes were extremely helpful and the true test was that they enabled a successful outcome on auction day.

Mike is very straight forward and very straight up. He will give you the good and the bad and help you to work out the best way forward. You can't ask for better than that in any house / section sale. 100% top person to go with.

We really enjoyed working with Mike and the team who are highly driven and and professional. We appreciated his upfront style and plenty of feedback during the campaign so we knew what to expect in relatively difficult market conditions.

Mike was the selling agent for a house we purchased in Pukekohe in May. Throughout the process he was professional, responsive, and easy to deal with. Communication was consistent, and he kept us updated regularly while we worked through the various conditions of the purchase. He also facilitated discussions with the vendor efficiently, helping to keep things moving along smoothly. As an experienced buyer, I didn't require a great deal of guidance, but Mike handled the process professionally and was always available when needed. The transaction progressed without any significant issues, and he was straightforward and pleasant to work with throughout. I would be happy to recommend Mike to anyone looking to buy or sell property in the area.

We found Patrick, Mike and the team to have an extraordinary ability to connect with people and were very impressed with their direct and honest communication style. They are a knowledgeable, energetic and efficient team, who achieved an amazing result for us. We would definitely recommend the team to others selling!

Selling a property can be both emotional and daunting, especially in a challenging market. Throughout the entire process, Mike Murphy and his team demonstrated exceptional patience, empathy, professionalism, and determination. Mike led the team with great professionalism and kept us well informed every step of the way. We greatly appreciated the consistent communication, which gave us complete confidence in both him and his team throughout the sale process. We have a great deal of respect for Mike and his team and would highly recommend them to anyone looking to sell their home. Their dedication, support, and service were truly outstanding.

Mike and Patrick showed excellent communication skills that were prompt and timely. Their local knowledge showed in listening to our requirements and finding a house suitable for our needs. We were treated very fairly and we were pleased with the ease of the transactions undertaken. Mike and Patrick were very professional in dress and manner. Thank you very much, it was a pleasure to work with yourselves.

Very professional with honest views and always available.

Although Mike's role was to act in the seller's best interest, he was exceptional to deal with. Professional, respectful and incredibly accommodating. A genuinely nice guy who goes above and beyond.

A great experience from start to finish. Great communication and an overall awesome team to deal with.

As first home buyers, this entire experience has been both exciting and daunting. Mike and his team have been very helpful throughout.

Very responsive and professional, good local knowledge of the market in our area. Helped us to achieve our goal in a timely manner.

Working with Mike and his team was an outstanding experience from start to finish. Their communication was exceptional-clear, prompt, and genuinely attentive. Every question was answered with patience and detail, and I always felt fully informed and supported throughout the entire process. Their market knowledge was equally impressive and gave me complete confidence in every decision we made. It was clear they weren't just knowledgeable-they were truly invested in achieving the best possible outcome. When it came to negotiation, they were absolutely top-tier, they advocated strongly on my behalf and secured a result that exceeded my expectations. Above all, their professionalism stood out. They were reliable, organised, and consistently went above and beyond to ensure everything ran smoothly. It's rare to find someone who combines expertise with such a high level of care and integrity. I couldn't recommend them more highly-an exceptional agent in every sense
