• We went to Eve's Real Estate to see if we could get someone to come and give us an appraisal on my father's house in June 2021, Carol was in the office, so she came to the house with Gordon and went through the property, they were both very helpful. Then lockdown came and everything came to a standstill, but Carol kept in touch with what was happening in the property market in Tauranga.
  In December when we were able to leave Auckland, we made contact with Carol and Gordon, their professionalism was really great, the house was well marketed and was sold with 2 days. Thank you Carol for all your enthusiasm and help in achieving the right price for the house.

  Paradise Place, Matua

• Carol was brilliant to work with. She supported us throughout the process of getting our house ready for sale. She genuinely listened and took on our needs and desires as vendors and buyers. Thank you so much Carol, for your excellent work.

  Jefferson Place, Brookfield

• Sold our second house in two years for top dollar. Always a pleasure to deal with and local knowledge second to none. Highly recommended.

  Freyberg Street, Otumoetai

• Carol took the time to assess my needs and desires, she was always professional and highly knowledgeable. Carol went through all possible options of properties with me and we viewed all relevant ones. Carol is a master of her business, she is supportive while keeping it real, she walked through the entire process with me and I am so pleased I took her invaluable advice. I would not have been able to buy my lovely house without her dedication, knowledge and excellent customer service. I can't recommend Carol highly enough. She is fabulous. Thank you so very much Carol for assisting me to purchase my lovely new home.

  Collingwood Street, Judea

• Carol helped make the purchasing of our 'perfect home' into a reality! She was with us every step of the way, taking us to home viewings on the weekends which was much easier then going to open homes and made it a lot less stressful as it allowed us to view the homes in our time.
  We gave Carol a long list of things that we wanted in a home and she listened and made sure that most, if not all of those things were covered in the houses she took us too.
  When we first viewed Christopher St and loved it, Carol told us to visualize 'Sold' on the sign and we will make this happen, and it did with much support and help from Carol.
  When we went to Auction Carol made sure we knew everything that was happening and negotiated and bid on our behalf, even though we were there. This made the auction process a lot less daunting and we ended up with the home we wanted.
  Carol was with us all the way from selling our home until buying and we now cant wait to move into our new home! Thank you again Carol for being such a great Real Estate agent!

  Christopher Street, Tauranga South

• We are the purchasers of a property that had been listed by Carol Dovey. Unfortunately there were issues with the property that became apparent during the conditional period. Fortunately Carol has had many years of experience in real estate and her ability to work through the process whilst keeping ourselves and the vendor informed and resolve this amicably is a testament to her competence, tireless effort and professionalism. I am certain that the purchase would not have been completed had a less experienced agent been dealing with the situation. We found Carol to be very personable, professional and would have no hesitation in recommending her.

  Solomon Street, Brookfield

• We definitely made the best decision choosing Carol to be our Estate Agent. Impressed by her enthusiasm, bubbly personality, honestly and hard work, nothing seems too hard or too much for Carol, no matter what time of the day or night it is!
  Carol has exceeded our expectations and always kept us fully informed and updated on the progress of our house. Due to her hard work and extra open homes our house was sold faster and easier than expected.
  We now consider Carol a friend and have already started recommending her to family and friends. Thank you so much Carol!

  Bethel Way, Judea

• This was our 3rd real estate deal with Carol Dovey who had previously sold our mums house and then ours. We asked her to show us properties to meet our specific requirements and we again received the benefit of her knowledge of the available properties. She showed us a new listing that went straight to multiple offers the day we saw it.
  Carol calmly lead us through the process and how to present the best offer to gain the vendors attention and approval. Ours wasn’t the highest number but had the best conditions. We won the multi-offer and secured the house. We have no hesitation in recommending her to both vendors and sellers. Meow.

  Parkvale Road, Otumoetai

• Carol didn’t waste any time, sending me detailed lists of all available properties according to my description. Any of those she chose would have been suitable purchases. With her support and advice I was able to narrow it down to one in particular after only two outings with her. With her advice and support I was able to secure the house at auction less than two weeks later. I can’t believe how easy she made the process, especially considering I live out of town.

  Bathurst Crescent, Pyes Pa

• Carol supported me as a buyer as well as representing the interests of the vendors. I had never met Carol, but she engaged with me at the open homes when I asked questions and she got back to me promptly with answers. She even liaised with another potential buyer for me to pay half the fee the other had already paid for a valuation required by the mortgagor, which would have helped me and assisted another potential bidder to come to the auction. She also advised me on auction procedure as a first time bidder. After I had purchased the property I made a request through Eves to go back to the property to measure the fridge space so I could buy one and have another look and measure up of the house. At this stage Carol was recovering from hip surgery and not working. The other agent I had made the request through was not helpful. Although incapacitated, Carol noticed my request as I had CC'd her in, and she contacted me to see if the agent had got back to me. She then followed up and arranged with the vendor to contact me and arrange a visit time. I am very impressed with her pre-sale and after sale care and professionalism.

  Waihi Road, Judea

• Carol and I have been friends for over twenty years and I am very familiar with the way she works so she was my obvious choice when choosing an agent to help with selling my property and re-purchasing. My property was in Gisborne so Carol recommended an agent there for me and assisted with all the paper-work which was a huge help to me as it’s certainly not something I do often. I was hoping for somewhere in the $7s but ended up with a whopping $................Once we knew I had the money coming Carol and I sat down and chose a hit list of properties to view while she eliminated a lot that I had considered by talking to other agents on my behalf. We viewed several properties and I fell in love with one. We decided to write up an offer but found out there were two already being presented to the vendors that day. All of a sudden the pressure was on as I was now in a blind multi-offer situation. Under Carol’s guidance I was the lucky purchaser! I am absolutely thrilled with my home and even more thrilled I got it as the amount of properties available has decreased while the prices have gone up. I would definitely recommend Carol as hard-working and trustworthy. She listens to what you want, has great intuition and gets the job done.

  Leander St, Mount Maunganui

• Carol was amazing from the outset. Excellent communication and marketing which culminated in outstanding results. I am more than happy to recommend Carol to my family and friends.
  Thank you Carol.

  Rimu Street, Gate Pa

• We chose Carol to be our listing agent after seeing her in action at an Open Home. She was friendly and informative about the house while still letting us absorb the atmosphere of the house itself. After the Open Home she kept in touch; periodically sending us listings in a personalised email and listening to our feedback about what we were looking for.
  She guided us through the listing process, meeting our need for the level of information that was appropriate for us. She listened to what we wanted and followed through.
  She gave us a price range that she thought our house would realistically sell within but recommended auction so that we could see what the market was achieving. This was good advice as we got a premium price on the day. The sales campaign was short but the house was viewed by a large number of people. Carol always rang first and verified a viewing time with us. She was flexible and always positive.
  From our experience with her I would recommend her to others who were thinking of selling.

  Windsor Road, Bellevue

• We were so impressed by Carol’s enthusiasm and professional manner. She guided us thoroughly through the process of listing and selling our home. She worked really hard for us to get a great price for our home. She vetted perspective purchasers really well and followed them up in a timely manner. Overall a really great experience.

  Princess Road, Bellevue

• Easy, friendly & quick process! She narrowed down the houses we would like quickly & simply. She made house visits work for us & our child’s needs. Good communication & happy to see us get into our new family home which made it feel special.

  Little John Drive, Bellevue

• Carol had sold a property of ours in 2018 so when we wanted recently to list our property on the market, Carol was the obvious choice for us.
  Carol has consistently shown competence, diligence, and knowledge of the market and has regularly kept in touch during the process which on all occasions provided excellent results for us.
  While they both were scheduled on three week campaigns to go to auction we were briefed on the process and walked through on the day.
  One sold after auction and the other resulted in a pre-auction offer that was handled professionally and discreetly resulting in a sale price we were happy with.
  Knowing that there was keen interest she held open homes both Saturday and Sunday resulting in a very high level of market exposure. Post auction follow through has been thorough also.
  Knowing we were also looking for a new property Carol helped us negotiate the purchase of an ideal property that met our brief, before the preferred property was exposed to the general market and this made for a smooth transition of our situation.
  Carol also sold our daughter a house after hunting for about 6 months, which has worked out extremely well regarding the strict criteria she was hoping for.

  Bell Street, Judea

• With Carol's expertise guidance and her ability to efficiently arrange multiple viewings, we were able to find a house that fit our very particular needs within just a matter of days. We wouldn’t have been able to do it without her help as she gave us the confidence we needed to make the decision – thank you Carol for all of your help and your dedication to our search.

  Coach Drive, Otumoetai

• We first met Carol Dovey on a wet & windy winter night when she knocked at our front door. “Have you seen my pussycat?” she asked as I opened the door. Errrr… No… I stuttered...
  She introduced herself by explaining that she was a neighbour & that “George” the cat had gone missing. We spent a few minutes chatting & enjoyed her easy going nature. I contacted her later requesting advice on selling a house in Matua that I had problems selling the previous year through another well respected rival company. Carol gave me her straight up opinion on what she thought we should do to get some interest in the property at the value we wanted to get. Some months later when I decided to put it on the market again, she fully explained our options for marketing, open houses & undertook a more in-depth property appraisal. Carol & her team understood our house’s unique attributes and issues. She conducted open homes & private viewings where the house was shown at its best. We had several interested parties & these were invited to the auction where it sold under the hammer on the day. Well done Carol.
  My old Mum also decided to sell her house & I was happy to suggest Carol at the Cherrywood Eves office.. My brother & I were charged with that task so met with Carol & her colleague where I was again impressed with the detailed market analysis presented to us. We were grateful for the house staging package she offered. They suggested ways to get the best result during the marketing period & the house sold at auction under the hammer on the day. Go Carol.
  We found Carol Dovey to be very helpful while looking for another property to purchase. She understood our budget & location requirements so able to find us one that ticked all the boxes. Yes. That’s three deals we were very happy with.
  Carol has the ability to bring sellers & buyers together using her knowledge, personal network & of course George the cat who I suspect may be very well fed.

  Cooneys Dr, Matua

• Fay had initially contacted me when I was selling real estate in Australia.
  Some years later she returned to Kapiti Coast and contacted me again with a view to settling in TGA.
  She had a varied but not unreasonable list of ‘must-haves’ and we proceeded to view what was available. I did eventually show Fay a property out of the ‘must have’ desired outcome to an ‘almost must-have’ property. She fell in love with it and proceeded to purchase.
  When it came to final inspection we had some dispute with the vendor as to chattels in working order. He refused to remedy the situation so myself and EVES came to the party to help. We didn’t have to, but we wanted to. It’s about honour and ethics ‘doing the right’ thing. We are now good friends.

  Maggie Place, Ohauiti

• In January 2021 we were approached by Carol Dovey , currently working for Eves Realty Re the marketing of our property at 101 Chadwick Road, Greerton. TAURANGA. While we didn’t know Carol at all, at the time we decided that the time might be right for us to sell, so Allowed her to proceed with the marketing. She put her all, into the marketing, open homes and follow up and within 5 weeks came to us With the offer we were looking for. During our time of marketing we were impressed with her efforts and communication but more so After settlement when a few problems arose with the “take over process” and because we had already moved to The South Island, we needed help to sort things. Carol and her Manager, Gordon Stewart rose to the occasion, hired the necessary help, fixed the issues that has arose, which allowed the property to “Settle”. This was invaluable to us and very worthy of our mention and huge Thanks. While Carol does a great job, she also has the backup and support of a wonderful Manager Gordon Steward, and Team at Eves Realty Tauranga. We would recommend them to anyone looking to Market their home in this current market where They are looking for top performers to ensure them the best possible outcome and price.

  Chadwick Road, Greerton

• Annette and Mario were moving from Auckland to settle closer to family.
  Unsure whether they wanted to live in Tauranga, Mount Maunganui or Papamoa we viewed a very wide spectrum of properties.
  I eventually found them a lovely unit in Pillans Point which they tell me they still adore living in.
  Mario loved exercise and I see him now in COVID lockdown out walking and relishing the many harbour and park walkways we both live by. Two years later they have now found their ‘forever home’.

  Myres Street, Otumoetai

• My purchaser had rather a long list of non-negotiables. Must have water view and a separate income.
  After much viewing and an unsuccessful offer I took Gael out of her comfort zone and quietly pleaded with her to view a specific property with me. She subsequently bought it and is very happy with her purchase. Canoeing around the harbour her property borders is the icing on the cake.
  We have become friends also...and now I have also sold her ex-partner a new home.

  Azores Way, Welcome Bay

• From the initial appraisal, through to planning a marketing a campaign, staging the house and organising the photography and advertising, Carol worked tirelessly to ensure I could achieve the best result possible in the sale of my property.
  I was kept informed through every stage of the process, getting viewer feedback regularly. Carol was amazing with following up after open homes which ultimately meant the people most serious about purchasing were in the auction room on sales day.
  My house sold under the hammer, providing a great result well in excess of what I imagined my property to be worth, after just a three week marketing campaign.
  Carol was also instrumental in helping me find my next long-term home. She listened to my requirements regarding property location, size and price point and arranged viewings of properties that were yet to come to market.
  Within a week of selling my home, Carol had shown me through my ideal next property and guided me through an incredibly competitive bidding process, allowing me to secure a great home in my dream location.
  As both a seller, then being a buyer I could not have asked for more professional yet personalised service where Carol worked extremely hard to ensure great outcomes in both homes transactions.
  I highly recommend Carol Dovey as an agent who listens, knows the market and always has your interests as her top priority. Thanks Carol.
  

  Carnie Street

• I would recommend Carol to anyone who wishes to sell their home.  If Carol wasn't available she always came back to me when she was free. I was happy to Auction my home and even though I didn't sell at Auction, after our next Open Home we had three contracts.  In two days time my house was sold. 
  Carol always kept in touch.
  The information I was given before and during our marketing was very satisfactory.  Even though Carol had many more listings to care for, she took it in her stride.
  I am certainly a happy Vendor.

  Mahoe Street, Matua

• Being a first home buyer and single mum Carol made my first home buying experience a memorable and smooth transition.
  With Carol's expertise and genuine knowledge for the market I was able to secure my first home.
  Her communication was clear and always quick to answer my queries no matter how often I'd phone throughout the process.
  Highly recommend Carol 

  Ngatai Riad, Bellevue

• We have had the privilege of having Carol Dovey as our real estate agent in the sale of our home and the purchase of a new home.
  Along with her professionalism we have been very grateful for her friendliness, and her care and empathy, throughout the process.
  We found ourselves in a very stressful situation over the sale of our property but Carol’s optimism, her perseverance, and her positive attitude helped immensely.
  Throughout the process her communication has been open, honest and informing, and Carol made herself available to answer any, and all, inquiries at any time. Carol has been generous with her time.
  In the process of purchasing a new property and preparing us for the auction process Carol has been first rate. We have been well-informed throughout, and this led us to a successful outcome.
  Carol is a part of a very effective real estate agency led by Gordon Stewart who was positively and empathetically involved.
  Carol’s bubbly personality and good humour have certainly been appreciated during this pretty stressful time. Her positive relationship building has been another aspect of Carol that has been substantially beneficial.
  We have no hesitation in recommending Carol as a proactive and trustworthy real estate agent.
  

  Stable Way, Brookfield

• What a pleasant easy ride we had selling our home in only 3 weeks involvement with Carol Dovey, whom Bob had meet earlier through friends readying themselves for their sale. 
  She is an absolute delight and made the process plain sailing for us. She felt like a family member, very bubbly, kind and efficient. We were totally relaxed and shared lots of laughs and scones for morning teas.
  Auction day both Carol and Gordon excelled themselves with the handling of things, us especially!  Encouraged us to keep things going and succeeded.
  We highly recommend Eves, especially Carol, in their expert involvement over those 3 weeks and on Auction Day and since

  Levers Road, Matua

• Carol Dovey is the perfect mix of tenacious and caring. When you’re making such a big financial, personal and emotional decision as buying or selling a house you want someone you know you can trust – Carol is that person.
  Being very particular finding a home to meet my requirements took several years but Carol stuck with me, keeping in contact about houses coming to the market that might suit and she was successful in finding me a home that exceeded my expectations, which was no mean feat!
  I recommend Carol to my family and friends without hesitation (she has now helped my parents buy/sell 2 houses) as finding a real estate agent you can trust, like Carol, is a rare thing.
  

  Upland Road, Brookfield

• Yes, thankyou Carol we have come back down to earth.
  What a massive result.
  We can't thankyou enough for successful sales of our two rental property's.
  Also huge thanks re your sound professional, logical advice, particularly around presentation of properties
  and staging, which helped with open homes and photos.
  We are both over the moon with results and have no hesitation in recommending you to all and sundry!!!.
  Whoop,Whoop!!

• Living in Australia and wanting to sell our NZ home we were referred to Carol at Eves Tauranga. Following initial discussions with Carol we decided to list our Papamoa home with Carol and Eves.
  We liked her honest, and upfront approach and decided to follow her recommendation to sell via Auction.
  Carol worked well with the tenants and no issues were raised during this time to complete a successful marketing campaign.
  Pre-Auction Carol was there to help us with every step and the information provided was informative and accurate.
  This property was in Papamoa so I worked with the Papamoa team in this instance. As it happened, another agent came up with the best buyer on auction day and we sold for a very ‘happy price for the vendor’.
  Team work is important.
  On Auction day, Carol and her team advised us how to get the best price possible, and they achieved a result which was extremely satisfying!!
  Having Carol working for us was a breeze, she is down to earth and easy to do business with and we are most appreciative of all the effort and hard work she put into achieving the “Best” price possible for us and our family.
  Many, many thanks!

• We met Carol when trying to purchase a property in Tauranga when we lived in the South Island. We found her friendly, efficient and forthright. We didn’t know the market in Tauranga at the time so appreciated her candid advice while entering the market. 
  When we decided to sell sometime later, Carol was the obvious choice. 
  Once again distance posed a barrier and we trusted Carol to keep us well informed which she did. We were unsure of how to price and market our property but Carol took care of that while giving us good honest feedback about our expectations and potential issues. We at all times felt fully informed and never bullshitted to.
  The marketing package provided showed our house in its best possible light and once again…
  Carol talked us through how to manage our tenants so that they felt involved and considered in the process and hence helped present the property to its fullest. 
  Our property not only sold quickly but we got a price well above what we had hoped for. We would highly recommend Carol to any potential vendor thinking of selling.
  

  Burrows Street, Tauranga South

• A local property management company I have affiliation with recommended me to these owners in Auckland
  wishing to sell up.
  The tenants were in the process of moving out and the property was looking rather tired and scruffy.
  There was also the difficulty of an extremely steep driveway to over-come.
  I recommended a few maintenance jobs be done, also home staging.
  The transformation was truly amazing!
  The professional photos and ensuing interest would never have reached the achieved price without these adjustments and attention to detail. I was over-run with buyers which resulted in a multi-offer far exceeding the owner’s expectations. Multiple offers in our company are always presented by our managers so everything is totally transparent.
  The staging company was Stage M

• Alex and Tina lived in Auckland and had their property in Jude Place rented.
  At one point I had a buyer specifically looking to purchase in this area so I did a mail drop to search for anybody contemplating selling. The tenant passed on my flier and Alex replied and though he wasn’t interested in selling at the time was happy to be added to my data base whereby I send out what is happening in the Tauranga property market monthly.
  They were keen to sell privately but after a few discussions realised they were better off using a professional. We agreed to stage the home to get the best possible outcome and proceeded with the sales process. On auction day, there was no cash interest in the auction room so we priced it at a ‘selling price’ not a negotiating price! Reserve was $700,000 and we achieved a sale within the week.
  The offer was actually with an agent from another company. Not all agents are happy to do this.
  ‘My personal belief is we work to get the best result for the vendor, wherever that interest comes from.’

• Grandma was now under pressure to secure a property to fit the new budget and the extended family of 3 adults and 8 children.
  This was no easy ask and there didn’t appear to be anything available. I sent an email out to my many fellow salespeople with an urgent need for help.
  The massive size of our team enables us to draw on huge resources. A Bayley’s PA saw my plea for help and suggested a potential property we had not yet considered. We quickly viewed the property and decided it was perfect and we then endeavoured to achieve finance to bring it all together.
  This was no easy task due to many circumstances. However, we managed to reach a successful conclusion and the family love their new home.
  Over this period at times I felt like the 12th member of this loving family.

  Inverness Drive, Pyes Pa

• I first met Carol, on a rainy day in May 2018 when I visited an open home she was hosting. As soon as I walked in the door I noticed how friendly and down to earth she was, including a few jokes and a great sense of humour!
  I was living in Auckland at the time and was visiting Tauranga on the weekends whilst looking for a house to buy.
  My circumstances were not the norm where I didn’t know the exact timeframe in which I was going to be in a position to purchase a property.
  Carol was very, very knowledgeable, patient and understanding and no question was to much for her to answer.
  I consider myself very lucky to have had an agent like Carol to work with as although I had owned properties previously, I hadn’t purchased a house on my own so it was a slightly daunting process for me.
  Carol kept in contact with me and touched base every now and then with properties that may have been of interest, she also went out of her way to show me through numerous properties.
  Finally in November 2018 I found a property I REALLY wanted to buy and it was going to sell at Auction. This whole process was also slightly daunting for me as I had never bought at auction before either.
  We had numerous conversations and Carol was always happy to listen and help me with any questions I had, and to get things all in order to bid at the auction.
  She went far beyond the call of duty and it was a pleasure to work with her – I ended up purchasing the property and it was a great experience for me, and I would definitely encourage buying at Auction as its so easy and straight forward too!
  Thanks so much Carol!

  Short Street, Otumoetai

• I have known Carol Dovey for 18+ years in both a professional capacity and as a friend.
  Carol and I worked as colleges in the Sales Industry 18 years ago which lead to a long time friendship of what we Class as “old friends”.
  Carol has acted for me both as a purchaser and  vendor and made the process work and arranged many viewings around my
  Hectic schedule making the sale and purchase very easy and stress free.
  When I was looking at purchasing a house 3 years ago in Tauranga Carol was the obvious choice for my Real Estate Agent.
  ‘ Carol makes the process very simple and is very proactive without being pushy as agents can often be.’
  Carol takes time to understand your desires, needs and of course budget taking the time to source a suitable property. Carol provides great feedback
  After hosting open homes and keeps you updated on all enquiries even if your property was discussed and not viewed.
  I could not speak highly enough of Carol’s work ethic and professionalism as a Real Estate Agent and would recommend Carol
  As your agent. If you want results you want Carol Dovey.

  Sue Dyke

• In 2019 I met Carol through an open home.  Since then she has helped me to sell my 2 bedroom home and buy a newer and larger home.  This process was complicated as I was combining extended family and a business and our needs were very specific.
  Carol both listened and understood my situation thoroughly.  She was very good at communicating and understanding, and kept me in the loop every step of the way.
  ‘Carol took the list of what was required and showed us appropriate houses instead of 'anything out there.'  This made the process simpler and personal.’
  Carol was friendly, approachable and dedicated to her job and mission at hand.
  I would personally recommend her to anyone for either buying or selling a house.
  P.S. Our new house is lovely and best decision I have made.

• A friend of mine referred me to her parents when they were wanting to sell their investment property. It was in a line of flats on a very busy road. We secured an excellent result from a multiple offer.
  Vanessa received a $500 Prezzie card for the referral. I have also made a new friend of the purchaser who was buying for her over-seas daughter.
