Francine ran an impeccable and highly successful campaign to sell our home in Palm Beach. From start to finish we received outstanding communication, excellent guidance on strategy (led by the kind of instinct you are born with and cannot learn) and generosity beyond the call of duty. Witnessing the dedication she has to doing her job in the best possible way was truly inspiring. I always felt I was in the best hands and very grateful that she was the woman we had chosen to get the job done. An outstanding campaign with beyond exceptional results. I wholeheartedly and highly recommend Francine to anyone.
Vendors
Francine was everything we would want someone entrusted to sell our property and more. She was trustworthy, empathetic and we felt understood our needs and was flexible enough to accommodate them. If we ever sold a house again I would come and hunt her out, she was marvelous.
Sian and Murray Burgess
A willingness to work with a client who lives in a different time zone in another hemisphere. Sale closed without need to travel. Excellent relationships with lawyers, tenant, and potential buyer. Francine made use of email and phone to keep me updated at all times during the complex marketing process in a challenging market. Her determination became the major factor in marketing of the property.

Francine sold our house for a price we were extremely happy with. She is a fabulous salesperson- hard-working, knowledgeable and connected and the icing on the cake is her warm and fun personality. We loved working with her.

''Francine was wonderful, helpful, always available for any questions or support, experienced, diligent and knowledgeable. She is a five-star agent in my opinion''.
S.A Kippenberger
''It was a pleasure working with Francine Sweet on the sale of our property on Waiheke Island. Francine's tireless professional service and commitment was second to none. Her drive, attention to detail and going the extra mile to obtain information for both parties gave her the X factor that few people have. It made her stand out from many of the other agents I have dealt with over the years. I will undoubtedly recommend her to friends and family and I would like to pass on my thanks to her for doing such a great job''
M. Van Der Walt
''Malcolm and I thought we would just like to comment on the terrific service provided by Francine Sweet for us on both 32 Cory Road and 31 Tiri View Road. She was professional throughout and provided us with great verbal and written feedback. She was helpful and proactive during the marketing of both properties. She was totally honest and upfront during negotiations and we knew she was looking after our best interests. As an agent myself of 20 years I was really pleased to have confidence in the agent of our choice and both Malcolm and I would certainly recommend her to vendors and buyers alike''
J. Deighton
"My wife & I had been considering selling our Waiheke Island home, but held back from facing up to finding a suitable agent, the appraisal, the cost of marketing and the disruption of what could be a long sales campaign. By chance, we were contacted by Francine Sweet. We were amazed with her dedication, energy and results. Using her database and personal contacts alone, she achieved a four party multi offer on our property over a 3-4 week period resulting in a successful sale. Her hard work and attention to detail combined with honest and effective negotiation means we can thoroughly recommend her services."
