Richard was always available. He listened and responded totally professionally and appropriately. I chose him to sell my Whangarei property because I had previoulsy experienced his efficiency and courtesy when I bought it.
We've worked with Richard Lyon twice - first when we bought our home in Whangarei, and again this year when we needed to sell it in a pretty tough market. Both times he was fantastic to deal with. Despite the low market, Richard managed to get us a better price than we were expecting, which was a great outcome. He was always super responsive, even with us being 12 hours behind, and we really appreciated his honesty throughout the whole process. Overall, Richard is a reliable, professional, and genuinely great agent. We'd happily recommend him to anyone buying or selling in Whangarei.
