Advising us on market conditions supported our decision making. We are very thankful and privileged to have worked with Pat and really appreciate his work ethics and humor."

Jack Watson Lupeni Siulua

"Pat was amazing from the first moment we met him with consistent help to settlement and beyond. Pat pushed the buyer to pay more than the original offer. Pat came out to the airport to collect house keys. Pat remained positive, professional and friendly from the moment we engaged his services. An exceptional man with extraordinary expertise. So grateful to him for looking after us."

Ilona Maria Brown

"Helpful, organised, friendly and professional. Right from the get-go, Pat portrayed professionalism in taking the extra time to break down everything he and his team do to manage the campaign to sell our home. Live updates and weekly debriefs gave us peace of mind. He handled auction day incredibly well, especially when we had a setback post-auction. Pat went the extra mile, putting in long days and late nights to get things completed. He raised the bar with his organisation and attention to detail. You and your team are certainly an asset to Ray White and we are forever grateful!"

Leigh, Florinda, Craig & Adelene

"We selected Pat to sell our property after careful consideration, being particularly impressed by his strong sales record and ability to connect with a wide cross-section of potential purchasers. Pat’s highly professional demeanour, coupled with his positive energy and realistic market appraisal, were highly appreciated – particularly because we were selling during a time of considerable market change and turbulence. We will not hesitate to recommend Pat to others: he is absolutely first-rate."

Mark Guest Ebery

"Pat Lapalapa was instrumental in the sale of my nephew’s house. Pat is Samoan, a local boy, and he understands the nature of selling the ‘Family Home’ and the emotional attachment. He is honest, funny, and warm, with an approachable manner. I highly recommend him."

Elizabeth Maria Bourke

"Pat is hands down the best agent we’ve dealt with. He went the extra mile to ensure that our experience was a successful one. Pat always communicated what the market was doing and informed us on customer feedback. We felt that he was truly in our corner rather than just trying to sell for commission. Forever grateful to Pat and the team and will recommend him to anyone thinking of selling their property."

Augustino & Regina

"Wholeheartedly we recommend Pat's services. We were nervous and unsure about a lot of things. Pat made sure that we were well informed with texts, calls, emails, google meetings and that there were no surprises, we trusted him easily. He did an amazing job with showcasing our modest home. There are not enough words to express our gratitude and appreciation for your services Pat. Thank You Fetuao and Leisha"

He kept us in the loop after every open home and emailed regularly with any other information we needed. We felt in very safe hands as he worked hard to get the best price for us."
