I would like to recommend Penelope Rollston our land agent.Her warm personality made this a positive experience. We chose her because of her high personal selling history and years of experience.Pen's photographer provided excellent photos of the house and Pen had open homes every week, plus appointments.Unfortunately, due to sickness and lack of EPOA, the sale was delayed.However Pen was a great support, answering my myriad of questions patiently.I got to know Pen better than one might in this business setting and found her ability to go the extra mile indispensable.I highly recommend her to anyone looking to sell.

We were in the market for a new house in Nelson, had seen numerous and dealt with many different real estate agents. We finally found our dream property and had the pleasure of dealing with Penelope Rollston throughout the purchase process. Pen was professional in her role with a genuine and down to earth approach. She offered great advice and suggestions, her communication was excellent and always followed up our questions. Buying a house can be stressful however our experience of this with Pen was extremely refreshing. We will definitely use Pen’s services if we plan to sell in the future and cannot recommend her highly enough. Darryl & Ange

Penelope was fantastic and went above and beyond to ensure the purchase of our new home was as smooth and as stress free as possible.
My previous experiences of selling two other houses in recent years had been somewhat stressful, so before listing my house, I looked carefully at the various real estate agents in my area. I chose to approach Penelope Rollston because she had recently had quick success in selling houses near my property, and I liked the fact that Tall Poppy offered a flat rate of commission. Immediately I met Penelope, I felt comfortable with her personality, energy and desire to get the best solution for me. She followed up on everything she had promised, speedily answered all my queries very competently, and sought my input and approval to proceed at each stage. The whole process was so swift and seamless, and I was very satisfied with the outcome. It took just three days from when the property was listed online until the couple who fell in love with my house had a signed unconditional offer for me to consider. Everything flowed so effortlessly for me, thanks to Penelope’s high standard of professionalism and expertise. Throughout she was helpful, knowledgeable, and sympathetically listened to my expectations. It is with the greatest of pleasure that I can unreservedly recommend Penelope to any prospective vendor, and I wish her well in her chosen career.
