Highly Recommend Les Mortimer as an Agent
Les was simply amazing to deal with during the process of listing and selling our investment property.
He treated us with respect and also our tenants who were understandably anxious about the property being sold - great outcome for them as they get to stay in the property once settlement is completed.
Everything went very smoothly and the property was sold very quickly - easiest sale of a property we have ever had ! which I strongly believe is due to Les and his knowledge and professionalism.
Anyone in Dunedin or surrounding areas who are looking for a great agent to either list or buy through - definitely get in touch with Les !

A quick and easy sale
We asked two separate agents to give us there thoughts on selling our property in Mosgiel. We decided on Les as i'd heard good things from others at work who had sold through him. His costs were appox 60% of the oppositions, his communication and guidance through out the process was made very simple and easy to understand. Very early on we given a offer however Les indicated clearly that we need to hold on as we could do better, thankfully we took his advice. Our property was listed on Friday and by Tuesday we were given a firm offer which we accepted and was 20k over the the first offer. All in all Les was terrific to deal with handled the entire process and was always available to us. We have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Les as an agent.

Les is very professional in everything he does.
From the moment I met with Les regarding the sale of property he put me at ease. From checking the property out, getting everything right with marketing etc and advice to present the property to prospective buyers. Les has gone the extra mile for us and we really appreciate the highest level of service that he provided, therefore I have no hesitation in recommending Les to anyone selling or buying real estate.

Professional, knowledgeable, helpful, friendly

We recently sold our house with Les Mortimer and we were thrilled with the entire process. Les was not only professional but also incredibly knowledgeable about the local real estate scene. He guided us through every step, answering all our questions and keeping us updated consistently. Thanks to his efforts, our house sold quickly. Les also demonstrated strong negotiation skills, ensuring we got a fair deal. Besides his professional competence, Les was transparent, honest, and a pleasure to work with. Selling a home can be stressful, but Les made it easy and straightforward. We wholeheartedly recommend Les to anyone seeking a reliable and knowledgeable real estate agent. His dedication, friendliness, and results-driven approach made us very satisfied customers. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend or work with Les again in the future.

All three brilliant

This is the second experience with Les and, on both occasions, his service and professionalism was exemplary. We were made well aware of the process from day one, clearly understood the fee structure, and were kept up to date through constant text messaging. We would use him again and have already recommended his services to another acquaintance looking to sell. Thanks Heaps Les. Rob & Di Hollebon

Amazing Agent
Les has an in depth understanding of the market and from start to finish has gone above and beyond of what was required of him. Excellent communication and always kept in the picture as to progress of sale. Les has shown professionalism and capabilities that are an asset to anybody who is wanting to sell a house. Highly recommended and if we were to sell again there would only be one Estate Agent for us and that would be Les. Thank you again Les for being a guide in the selling of our home and for showing such dedication and making the whole process so much more understandable.

Professional, genuine and got the job done!
Les is an outstanding real estate agent with extensive experience that leads to great results. He was upfront and clear as he patiently walked us through the process, both when we purchased our house from him and then when we sold the same house four years later. He gave excellent advice, regular updates and was able to sell our house in 10 days! Thanks Les!

Superb diligence in meeting my every expectation.
Les listened to all my suggestions & concerns, and attended to my every need - nothing was too much trouble. Les has a detailed knowledge, and experience, of the Mosgiel market, and importantly the trends in the market at this time. This lead to a satisfactory and timely sale of my house. I am very pleased.

Honesty and Integrity
Les is a very honest and genuine person . We could not fault his professionalism - he always presented himself immaculately and followed through on everything he said he would do, and very promptly. His friendly manner put you at ease and Les kept us informed about processes and developments as they occurred. Despite the market being in decline, Les was able to achieve an excellent result for us. We appreciate his service driven approach where people were important. The flat fee was a particular appeal to us, and we would use this company again.

Professional, Competent, Reliable, Trustworthy.
Our experience with Les Mortimer was one of a man who knew what he was doing and did it well. He kept us informed at all times from start to finish, and we can confidently recommend him. Review submitted by James.

Les was great to deal with. He felt relatable and an honest real estate agent. We had our house on the market with another realtor to begin with, it had little to no movement for 6 months. We then heard about Les Mortimer and decided to change, best decision as les had it sold in a matter of weeks for us. Review submitted by Kelly.

This is the 4th house we have sold and the service was extraordinary, and I would recommend Les as a top professional and honest real estate agent. Review submitted by David and Judith (Vendor).

Going the Extra Mile

Les is a great agent to have on your side when selling your property. It took a little longer to sell our dad's home than anticipated but Les persevered and stayed positive throughout. He always went the extra mile to help us and showed great knowledge, professionalism and enthusiasm. His communication skills are outstanding. Always keeping us updated with what was going on. Thanks Les for all your hard work. We would recommend you 100%.

I cannot recommend Les more if you are looking at selling your property. The advise he gave us and marketing provided allowed us to get to the very best price for our renovated property. We will definitely be asking Les to sell any future houses.

Les was straightforward, easy to work with and super helpful. Couldn't have asked for a better service. Highly recommended!

Excellent Service

Les has excellent market knowledge, communication skills and was very professional in our dealings with him. We feel he went above and beyond what was required and what we expected during the processes of both purchasing and selling property. Arizto’s low fee structure is exceptional. We have no hesitation in recommending both Les and Arizto and would use both again without hesitation.

Shane and Nichola

We wanted to thank you for the work you did for us in selling our home. We were really happy with how things went and the way you guided us through the process.
We won't hesitate in recommending you to others.
Dave & Megan

Thanks very much for your help through out this process. It has been a pleasure working with you.
Thanks, Julia

We have now been through the property transaction process twice with Les; firstly as purchasers and more recently as vendors, and in both cases we were very happy with the process and end result. Les is professional, knowledgeable and experienced in the real estate industry of the greater Dunedin area, but he is simultaneously down-to-earth and approachable. We found the process from both sides of the transaction to be smooth, stress-free and straightforward, with Les's transparency and good communication playing a primary role in that.

In short, our experience with Les has been great, and we wouldn't hesitate to recommend him to anyone looking to sell their property.
S & R

Hi Les, thank you for your work selling the flat and also looking after the lease etc. It made things very painless for us, so is much appreciated. We have actually just been singing your praises to friends who were looking at selling here in Geraldine, but I guess that's a bit out of your area.
Thanks once again Les.
Regards
Ray and Margaret

WOW!!! That's really exciting. Thank you so much Les!!! You have been wonderful to deal with. I won't hesitate to recommend you!! Lauren

Thank you so much Les. We are so very stoked with our beautiful new home. You have been amazing to deal with and hope to work with you again. Becks

Hi Les, That was the smoothest house transaction I've ever been involved with, so a massive thank you and big congrats on how you managed this sale. Shirley and I are stoked with the ends you went to, and we're extremely happy with the outcome all round.

Firstly, many thanks for all your effort Les, and diplomatic negotiations. Mum feeling comfortable with the agent we had for the sale process was of upmost importance and I wish to thank you most of all for your good old southern manner. I also wish to thank you on your intercommunication with mum as most people are unsure and struggle to communicate with a deaf person, but you made her feel human and included, so a big thank you.

Les Mortimer provided exceptional service during the sale of our property. He conducted regular open homes for longer duration than previous agents. An example of the extra service was demonstrated when, while we were away, Les cut the lawns prior to an open home. We would happily recommend Les Mortimer.

I felt sad leaving, but also pleased a great couple has our home. Thanks again Les, you are tops!

With our deepest gratitude and thanks for a superb job done selling our property.

Thank you again for everything you did for us. You went above & beyond & we cannot express how grateful we are for your help & support. Regards,

With Les’ extensive experience, astute analysis of the market, and clear communication skills, we were very well informed and found the marketing/selling process to be a very positive experience. Les demonstrated a high level of professionalism and integrity and he always provided comprehensive feedback and answers to any questions we had.

Les was outstanding, great to deal with, kept us right up to date. Went the extra 2 miles. Turned negatives into positives. Good to have a happy person to deal with. Just the “TOPS” We have been spreading the word.

Without a doubt Les is the most dedicated & knowledgeable salesperson I have ever dealt with. From this day forward, Les will be my “Go to” man when I need to buy or sell another property. I have no hesitation in recommending Les for fast, efficient results.

I found Les to be easy to work with. Friendly, honest. I would definitely recommend him to other people who are wanting to sell.

Les kept me well informed at all times, I wouldn’t hesitate to use him again and have recommended him to friends and family. I found your rates realistic, thanks a lot.

Hello Les, I would like to thank you very much for your professionalism in the speedy and easy sale of the house and for your patience during the probate. I will be more than happy to recommend or use you myself in the future.

Dear Les, thank you so much for getting the sale over the line, and being so good to deal with, it means a lot to us. Thanks!!

Yay!!! That's great news, thank you so much Les! U have been amazing, made our first experience selling a house easy :)

We found Les to be a breath of fresh air when it comes to Real Estate people. He is always very professional, kept us up to date with everything that was happening. A very pleasant man to deal with and we would without hesitation go with Les in the future. We highly recommend Les to our friends and family.

Les sold us our property; and when listing it to sell, it was a no competition decision to have Les do just that for us.

Hi Les ... our appreciation for going that extra mile to help us through the entire buying and selling process, you made the journey so stress-less. We are enjoying our new home...

Les is a great agent, he is personable and has integrity and works really hard. We are delighted with the result he has achieved for us and the time frame in which he has done this.

Our experience with Les Mortimer has been one of trust & honesty. At all times we felt our salesperson was working for us to achieve the sale of our property. Les is a very positive people person and made the whole process easy.

Thank You So Very Much! You are amazing at what you do. The whole process of selling my house was stress free and a pleasure. This was due to you Les. Thank you so much.

That's fantastic news, thanks so much Les, great work!

Les, I thank you for your courtesy and professionalism.

Les was very professional in all his dealings with me. He kept me informed about any interest in the house and about what a builder had to say about the house. Very honest.

We were amazed at his presentation, attention to detail, care & overall knowledge of the Real Estate industry. His communication skills were first rate, he contacted us frequently during this period so we knew exactly where we were at all times. We recommend Les to everyone. He was a model agent who worked for us & we really enjoyed dealing with him. Where other agents were negative, Les was so enthusiastic and positive. He is friendly, professional, approachable, fun with a great sense of humour. That dedicated we watched him “padding the pavement” in the rain. Our property was sold in 6 days. Thanks Les.
