Jake Stevens

Attended our 1st ever house auction and all the staff at BK were very welcoming towards us. Thoroughly enjoyed our 1st auction, well run and bit of fun along the way - Jake was awesome!

I recommend Bronwyn Kay Agency 100%+

I would like to thank Bronwyn for the very good advice to sell our property.  Also Jenny and Mandy for all they did; very stress free.  Last but very important, Jake - a top man.

Thank you.

We have had a previous positive experience with Jake at Bronwyn Kay Agency.  However, this time the sale/purchase far exceeded our expectations!

Have already recommended Jake many times over and will continue to do so!  We will definately be back when we sell again.

Being an agent myself I felt that Jake did a great job for the Purchaser (me) and also worked very well and fair for the Vendor.  He achieved two very satisfied people in reaching a fair deal for both.  Well done Jake.  Merry Christmas to All.

I would highly recommend Jake Stevens if you're looking for a highly knowledgeable real estate agent you can trust for an excellent and competent purchase/sale. Extremely Professional.

Jake went out of his way to make things easy for us and was very pleasant to deal with.

This sale was a stress free process and we appreciated the way Jake managed the Auction.

Many thanks to Jake & the BK crew for making this a smooth purchase.

Jake our Salesperson did great work.  Bronwyn Kay has a great team, friendly and very helpful  :)

Fantastic process.  Really appreciated the support & guidance from Jake.  The entire BK Team were amazing throughout the process.

Much appreciated.  We could not have aked for a better result and always a smile from the incredible team at BK.

Jake was very easy to communicate with and made me feel at ease each step of the way.  Laid back but professional approach, I would definitely recommend him to friends and family.

Jake was my Salesperson, he was excellent and thought outside the square. Jake also listened to my way of thinking, I asked for no contact unless something positive was happening.  We developed a plan together, Jake was totally onto it.  Now my daughter has listed her house with Jake.

We are happy with our agent, he was helpful, approachable and always available if needed.  We appreciated the service we were given.  Awesome!!!

I would recommend people to go through Jake Stevens as he is a top man. Cheers Jake!

Dear Jake - I would like to thank you very much for your assistance with the marketing and sales of a number of properties in the Gisborne region under the mortgagee auction process.  The delicate nature of mortgagee sales often requires a level of skill and sensitivity which goes beyond the usual real estate transaction.  Your experience and communication skills were certainly up to that task.  Your calm and fair-minded liaison with all parties no doubt resulted in the successful end results.  It’s always a pleasure to work with you Jake and I would have no hesitation in recommending your professionalism to anyone looking to buy or sell real estate.

I highly recommend Jake Stevens and the Bronwyn Kay Agency Real Estate Team. Over the past 2 years Jake has successfully sold 5 rental properties for me. As I live in a foreign country, it fell to Jake to work with the property manager and the tenants to arrange presentation of the property to potential buyers. In this Jake truly excelled. His strong rapport with tenants and local tradesmen made a dramatic difference in the outcome of these sales. Jake made arrangements with the property manager and tenants to ensure that the properties were in the best shape possible for the sale.

Jake's ability to bring in offers is remarkable. Even in a slow real estate market, Jake was able to pull in multiple offers on most of the sales and was able to leverage the multiple offers in order to obtain a higher selling price.

Lastly I must commend the team at Bronwyn Kay Agency on their technological capabilities. As a foreign investor I rely heavily on electronic communication. With Bronwyn Kay Agency I was able to do so with minimal effort.

“Thanks Jake, Really appreciated your enthusiasm and attitude to get us sold, you are fantastic at what you do, but even better was a genuine person who took care of us all the way through this journey.  Muriwai Beach Road here we come!”

"I have been dealing in both commercial and residential property throughout New Zealand for the past 8 years. I have dealt with many Real Estate agents, both in selling and purchasing. When I made the decision to invest in Gisborne I dealt with Jake Stevens of the Bronwyn Kay Agency. I encountered a smooth transaction, I found Jake Stevens to be both professional and knowledgeable when it came to dealing with the property. I would have no hesitation in recommending him to others seeking to invest within Gisborne."

“My real estate agent Jake was professional, he was reliable and efficient”

"Jake impressed me with his lovely manner with tenants/owners of houses we looked at. I felt supported, but not pressured when viewing homes and this is the reason I chose BK to manage my rental once purchased. I also really appreciated the ‘taxi’ service and the after-sales service, including checking the tenant’s wellbeing has been superb!"

“We recently sold our home after making the decision to relocate to America. We were working to deadlines and really required a result in a rather short time frame. Not only did Jake achieve a great price in a very good time frame, he was instrumental in advising us on any improvements which we believe helped achieve a great price. He even came over on a Friday evening and helped us pressure wash and clean the home!  Thanks for all your help Jake!”

“Over the years I’ve engaged Jake Stevens to sell several homes on my behalf and most recently bought through him I have found him to be a good, honest and reliable agent. I would have no hesitation in recommending him if you are considering buying or selling a home. Thanks Jake!

The sale went hitch free at our end. We were well informed throughout the sale and we felt that we were given the best advice about where our property stood value wise in the current market for its location and as a result all parties were happy in the end.

 Correct pricing and marketing, plus the advice and enthusiasm of the sales team ensured a quick and seamless sale of my property

Jake was enthusiastic about Mum's place as soon as we met him.

We found Jake to be professional, friendly and very good at his job, guiding us through a tough time in our lives as we had recently lost our Mum and it was her home that was being sold.  Jake has made it very easy, going through this process.

If we were buying or selling we would go through Jake and the Bronwyn Kay Agency for the professionalism and dedication that is shown to clients.s
