Dirk Merwe
Residential Sales
Transparent and personable
Dirk is not just a regular real estate agent. His straight-talking authenticity combined with his strategic thinking, success, vibrant personality and unforgetable humour makes your real estate journey less stressful and, yes, more fun! This is why Dirk’s clients come back time after time to work with him – Dirk delivers.
Dirk’s success comes from his drive to get the best results for you - which in straight-up terms means the best result for him too. This means different things for different clients which is where Dirk’s exceptional communication works wonders. Whether selling or buying (or both) Dirk gets to know your unique circumstances so that he can execute the best sales and marketing strategy for you. He has expertise in selling a wide range of properties from smaller first-homes, vacant land to high-end high-spec homes, all with fantastic outcomes for his clients.
Dirk goes above and beyond to ensure you are 100% prepared to buy and sell so that you get the best result. His advice on how you can best prepare your property for sale, what to look for in a property and contacts for local, reliable trades people, valuers and brokers come as standard when you work with Dirk.
What isn’t standard is Dirk’s innovative perspective on real estate. One of his favourite sayings is “You can’t do the same thing over and over again and expect different results.” He takes different approaches for different situations and clients which is why he gets A+ outcomes.
When you meet Dirk, you might wonder from where he hails. His accent tells the story that he’s lived in different countries before finding his forever home in stunning Mount Maunganui back in 2005. Before Real Estate, Dirk worked in radio, BOP Rugby and RWC 2011 so is a familiar face to many in the area – if he doesn’t see someone (or 10) that he knows while out walking the Mount with his family, at the supermarket or enjoying the Mounts restaurants, it’s unusual!

You went above and beyond what we would have expected from an agent, in order to ensure that things happened quickly for us, as well as making the whole process as stress free as buying a house can be! Again, thank you, we have no hesitation in recommending your services to friends in the future.

Thank you for the effort you put in to selling our property. The sale price more than exceeded our expectations and we believe this was a direct reflection of all your hard work and enthusiasm. We also appreciated the follow up after open homes and regular communication along the way. We cannot recommend you strongly enough, you were a pleasure to deal with and we thoroughly enjoyed selling our property with you.

We were introduced to Charlotte and Dirk after a recommendation from one of their past customers. We invited them to make a pitch alongside another party and we are pleased to say their presentation was 'heads and shoulders' above what we have seen before and the manner in which they presented the facts, without the sugar coating, was refreshing. Engaging them from the initial contact and the listing proposal - the campaign started as it was meant to go on - and nothing altered throughout. As an out of towner, Charlotte and Dirk also offered and took care of everything, from home staging and professional photography, to liaising with our tenants - and their willingness to make the process as smooth as possible was evident right from the get-go. The three-week Auction campaign started strongly, the recommended advertising hitting the mark and their broad database clearly evident based on the strong numbers through the property via private viewings as well as the Open Homes. We received regular market feedback and this was delivered in a straight up, honest manner and we always felt we knew exactly where the program was tracking. It's therefore no coincidence that not only did the campaign produce a multi offer pre the auction, but also the outcome significantly exceeded our expectations. It is without hesitation that we recommend them.

Charlotte and Dirk were extremely professional throughout the process of selling our house. Phil and I were very impressed with their positive attitude and we appreciated their honesty in laying out exactly what we would expect. They are a great team and easy to deal with and have no hesitation recommending Charlotte and Dirk to anyone selling their property.

Charlotte and Dirk provided us with regular extensive market updates and things we should be considering prior to selling. Once our property was listed, the professional level of detail provided through communication and market knowledge reinforced that we had made the correct decision to entrust Charlotte and Dirk with the sale of our home. Within a week of listing we achieved multiple offers and our home was sold prior to the first scheduled open home. We would not hesitate to recommend them to any potential seller that requires a professional and superior service that achieves an outstanding sale result.

Charlotte and Dirk passionately worked for me and kept me up to date with all progress, good and bad. I felt they both genuinely cared about me and the outcome.

As a first time home seller, I was really sceptical about the process, so much so, that I even considered selling privately… what was I thinking?! These guys are down to earth, professional and true to their 'refreshingly different' marketing. They took care of the WHOLE process and 100% convinced me they had MY best interests in mind when it mattered.

First we must day thank you to Dirk for installing Trust in us to market and complete the sale of our Links Avenue Home. The level of detail provided by understanding our needs, clear communication with superior market knowledge provide an outstanding professional service. Within a week of listing we achieved multiple offers and our home was sold prior to the first scheduled open home. We would not hesitate to recommend Dirk to any potential seller that requires a professional and superior service that achieves an outstanding sale result.

We have recently bought a property through Eves Realty with Dirk Merwe as our agent and would highly recommend him to anyone who is in the process of, or thinking about buying a property. He is friendly and competent. Advice given was valuable and informative. Appointments were always kept with time to spare and he was around when needed.
Thank you Dirk. It was a pleasure doing business with you!

We just wanted to write to say thank you for the outstanding service that you recently provided us. When we were given notice on our rented property we really didn't think there was any chance of us being able to find a property within the 6 week notice period, so to have keys to our own home just 3 weeks later was beyond our dreams. You went above and beyond what we would have expected from an agent, in order to ensure that things happened quickly for us, as well as making the whole process as stress free as buying a house can be!
Again, thank you, and rest assured that we will have no hesitation in recommending your services to friends in the future - not something we would have expected to say about a Real Estate Agent!!!

Dirk Merwe listed and successfully sold our property at 121b Oceanview Road. Throughout the entire process he was open & transparent and ensured we were up to date on the property market and the auction process. We were informed on the day of Open Homes of the interest generated and this was followed up with a written report soon after. We considered this aspect of the service we received to be excellent. We appreciated the support and advice supplied by Dirk throughout our sale process and would readily recommend him to others.

Dirk is both diligent and professional, but it is his honesty and integrity that really impressed me. Through all of my time with Dirk I had 100% certainty that I was dealing with an truly honest, transparent, and ethical person. This gave me great confidence in all the information and advice Dirk provided me , that not only helped me find the best property for me, but also made the whole process enjoyable.
