CUSTOMER STORIES
Our experience with Harwood Homes began after we had spent a few days looking at existing homes with a real estate agent in Papamoa. It was our hope to move from Auckland to Papamoa.
The first home we looked at with the real estate agent was an existing Harwood home, however, the style of the home was not what we had in mind, never-the-less we could see the good quality in the building of the home. The real estate agent did express to us whilst viewing this home that owning a Harwood Home was a real investment. |
After viewing many more existing homes with the agent and not having seen exactly what we had in mind, we decided to have a final look around Papamoa by ourselves before heading off back to Auckland the next day.
Quite by accident we came across a Harwood Show Home in Papamoa, after viewing this home we immediately knew that a new home was the only way we were going to get exactly what we wanted and once again we could see the quality in the building of this show home. The design of the show home was not exactly what we wanted either but we were shown other designs and we were informed by the sales person that Harwoods would make any alterations that we wanted providing it was viable, plus we could build a home to suit our budget. We chose a plan called “The Arlington” the design of this plan was just what we were looking for and with a few adjustments to make the bedrooms, lounge, and garage bigger, we decided it was what we wanted and it could be built within our budget. All we had to do then was to find a section that the house would fit on.
The next day we did find a section that we liked through a real estate agent that the sales lady from Harwoods had recommended and between the real estate agent and the sales person at Harwood Homes they worked upon seeing whether the plan we had chosen would fit on the section, the plan did fit on the section with no problems.
The benefits we got from working with the Harwoods team was fantastic, everything was made so easy for us especially the communication between them and us whilst we were still living in Auckland. Once our house was sold in Auckland we rented in Papamoa and still the communication and friendliness continued, we were treated with the utmost respect by everyone concerned with the actual building of our home whenever we visited the site.
As with most new homes that are built there were some problems, but, we were not overly concerned because we had every confidence in having the problems righted due to the reputation that Dave Harwood has, and, he did not let us down in any way. We found everyone in the Harwood’s team friendly and obliging and would not hesitate to build with Harwoods again.
