Before joining Bayleys, he spent eight very successful years as the leading salesperson for Waikato, Bay of Plenty and South Auckland with bulk fuel company northfuels.co.nz, clients were typically transport companies, earthmoving contractors and large-scale farming businesses.

Slide 1 of 14

Willem we were both delighted with your efforts on our behalf - the market was a difficult one and you achieved a good result for us - kept us informed all the way and we benefited from your advice throughout the process.

Karen & Bev, Matamata

I was so lucky to have a great team to guide me through the selling experience. I can't speak highly enough of your services Willem, you made it so much easier for me with your expertise. So a huge thank you for your assistance.

Barbara Hastie

Willem's communication at every level in the negotiations was perfect. He followed the project through from beginning to end with constant commitment.

Felicity McGrath

We found Willem a breath of fresh air in selling our properties. He was very focussed, meticulous with detail, prompt and very reliable with all aspects of the process. Willem was in constant contract during the campaign. Along with Jane they kept us up to date with every piece of information, promptly and effectively. Although our auctions were badly affected by COVID 19 lockdowns, we still achieved a good result by the teams efforts to minimise the problems.

Brian & Elsie Croy

Willem was very professional and informative and we respected his guidance and manner in selling our property. A real delightful person to deal with and a credit to him for making the call to ask if we were interested in selling. Willem was in touch with us frequently, keeping us informed with potential leads and enquiries on our property - his involvement & salesmanship were second to none! It was a little daunting as had never been to an auction, but the final result was excellent.

Kevin & Dianne McGovern

Willem was always so courteous in addressing both my daughter and me in every discussion we had, and always made sure that we understood before continuing. Never having attended an Auction before, we were not sure of what we were meant to do, but again, we were welcomed and made comfortable, and constantly informed of discussions.

Eve & Hazel Kiff

To whom it may concern, We chose Bayleys with their beautiful marketing that we felt stood out amongst the rest. They also had a strong presence of success within the community. We chose agents - Catherine Hayward and Willem Brown together, with their friendliness and knowledge and professionalism - they were both able to present the facts and didn’t fail to disappoint throughout the whole listing, marketing and sales process of our property. They took what generally is a stressful time - and were able to make us feel at ease and their level of communication was outstanding. I highly recommended them both for the whole process as they won’t disappoint and should we go through the process again, they will be our first agents we would call.

Brian & Ally Jack

I found Willem and Catherine both very warm and professional when dealing with Bayleys for my purchase. I really appreciated Willem's energy, his knowledge of the area, and the regular follow up/follow through over the weeks in regards to two properties. Bayleys ran an outstanding auction that I was proud to be a part of.

Hannah Myers

Positive & proactive agent who kept us well informed through the tender process.

Matt Crosby

I was satisfied with the level of communication. Willem kept me up to date regularly. I found Willem to be honest & created a high level of trust.

Helen Aston

I found Willem knowledgeable about the region & he regularly sent us information about other properties for sale & his listings & selling success, I found him professional in his approach & he was easy to communicate with. What impressed me was his consideration for my tenant & how the sale impacted on their business. The marketing of the property was directed to potential buyers & Bayleys knowledge & contacts were an advantage. The auction day was well advertised & was well attended. Willem gave me updates about the interested parties & the results were beyond my expectations. I would recommend Willem as an agent & would be happy to use him again. From a very satisfied client.

Maria

I was happy with the way the marketing and selling the property was done, Willem showed professionalism in every step. Auction day was a nervous time, as it always is for both sides, but the support was excellent. Willem had very good communication right through the exercise. Very happy with the outcome and will use Bayleys again.

Derek Hoyle

We got hold of Bayleys Cambridge which was the best thing we did. Willem was on board with his lovely PA Jane straight away. We mentioned to Willem what we wanted, he listened to us and we then left it with him. Willem communicated with us every Monday and within 3 months had got us a great tenant. Thank you Willem.

Chrissie B
