How we loved helping these families on their journey.......
“My husband and I have bought and sold a lot of real estate over the years and I must say, when I met Lisa and Wayne, “Team Parfitt”, I was very impressed. We don’t live in Auckland, but my mother does and I needed to find a company and a salesperson that I felt comfortable with - well Lisa and Wayne ticked all the boxes. They complement each other very well as a couple, are very professional, have integrity, passion, and are so driven from start to finish at achieving results. They both had so much respect and were so caring towards my mother as I couldn’t always be there. Lisa and Wayne just took over - amazing people. They know exactly what they're doing, are very informative and I trusted their suggestions which achieved the ultimate result on auction day. I would recommend Lisa and Wayne to anyone looking for the ultimate experience. Well done to you both. Lots of luck and best wishes for the future - I’ll never forget you.”

“We recently had the pleasure of engaging Lisa and Wayne to sell our family home in Eastern Beach, Auckland. From our initial meeting at which they presented their marketing proposal and explained the process that the sales campaign would follow, they filled us with confidence and put us in a relaxed mode in what could otherwise have been a stressful experience.
It can be an emotional time selling a family home, the Parfitt’s treated our home as if was their own property. Lisa and Wayne kept us informed through every step including weekly progress reports plus phone updates after each open home. Prior to and during the auction they explained their strategy and how the auction might progress. The price achieved at auction was well above our expectations. This could only have been achieved with a highly energised, motivated, and passionate sales team, the Parfitt’s.
We were very impressed with Lisa and Wayne and found them a pleasure to work with. Nothing was too much trouble. If you are looking for a real estate salesperson with a point of difference, we would highly recommend Lisa and Wayne.”

DOC is rolling out a new tool to help figure out what to tackle first when it comes to protecting our threatened species and the things putting them at risk.
Why does this matter? As Nikki Macdonald from The Post points out, we’re a country with around 4,400 threatened species. With limited time and funding, conservation has always meant making tough calls about what gets attention first.
For the first time, DOC has put real numbers around what it would take to do everything needed to properly safeguard our unique natural environment. The new BioInvest tool shows the scale of the challenge: 310,177 actions across 28,007 sites.
Now that we can see the full picture, it brings the big question into focus: how much do we, as Kiwis, truly value protecting nature — and what are we prepared to invest to make it happen?
We hope this brings a smile!
