Founded on happy clients and genuine referrals
Down to earth, very competent, reliable with great communication
Debbie was very easy to deal with and we felt that our house was in good hands. She has a realistic knowledge of the market and we trusted her to get our sale across the line, which she did for a great price. Thank you.
Great agent, would highly recommend
Debbie was the perfect agent to sell our property. She understood what we needed and managed to get the property under offer within 2 weeks. Very happy sellers.
Great communication, stress-free process
Libby was great to deal with and nothing was a hassle. Communicated well and was prompt with any questions I had during the sale of the house. Made the process of selling a property stress-free.
Proudly local
We are locals looking after locals. The Cooper Group is committed to supporting the region with ongoing connections to vital community organisations and networks. The Charitable organisations that we support receive no national or government funding, so the work we do within the region is a critical lifeline. It is our privilege to help.
As a small local business, you can also be 100% confident that the money you spend with us is going directly back in to the community that we serve. There are no wider franchise fees or departmental head office taking their cut outside of the Nelson Tasman Region. We genuinely are your local.
