When my father had to go into a care home it was up to me to clear and sell his house. I had no idea where to start selling a house , Ive never sold one. But my husband, whilst cleaning outside the house, met up with Daemon out on the street and got chatting, and from there we started our journey of selling the house. We allowed ourselves to be fully guided by Daemon as it was clear from the start that although he is a young man, Daemon is at the top of his field with his knowledge and expertise in relation to selling houses. Daemon met with us regularly , set up a whats app chat group where he posted updates of the sale progress such as number of viewers , feedback, etc. He was always available for our phone calls where he dealt with our million questions, guided us in all the right directions and was generally a pleasure to deal with. We will definitely go with Daemon again if we ever need to sell another house , and will be highly recommending him to our friends and family. The result we got from the sale of the house was also 100% above expectation so we are very happy costumers.

Hard work pays off
I have no reservation in recommending Daemon to anyone in need of a first class service in marketing their home. His knowledge and experience of both the market and the processes were reassuring to my wife and I as he was terrific in leading us sensitively through what we considered to be a daunting process of selling our home. We were very much aware of every step being taken through the process as his communication was frequent, honest and therefore we were very comfortable. He worked very well in unison with his Ray White team members and this further demonstrated that he was a well respected member of that organization - we definitely had the right guy on our side. When the time is right we have no reservation in working with Daemon once more.

We had the privilege to have Daemon look after the sale of our family property and he was amazing and very patient in his dealings with all parties involved. With the nature of my work where I'm dealing with high stress and pressure levels, Daemon, was able to relieve the pressure and take on full responsibility. A very trustworthy, kind and humble attitude which he has in abundance. I wish Daemon and the team at Ray White the very best in future.

Professional
Daemon was a key part in achieving the successful sale of our home, and we’re very grateful for the dedication and professionalism he brought to the process. He took the lead in negotiations and was calm, clear, and focused throughout — even during some very challenging moments. He also worked tirelessly to manage a particularly difficult potential buyer, putting in a huge amount of effort to keep things moving and maintain communication on all sides. His ability to stay level-headed under pressure, combined with his clear and respectful communication, made a real difference and helped us navigate a process that wasn’t always easy. Thank you, Daemon — your hard work, persistence, and support helped us get a great result in the end. We also want to thank the team at Ray White for making it possible to sell our house and move on to our next chapter.

Daemon was an amazing agent through what was a difficult sale. He went above and beyond to ensure that the sale process was as stress free as it could be. Daemon was completely professional but also cared about us as clients. Daemon achieved the results we were looking for from the sale and worked for us during the process. Daemon was the ultimate professional and our experience during our time with him proved that. Very highly recommended

Daemon is professional and knows how to adapt to different situations.
Daemon contacted me 4 years ago regarding our rental property to see if we were interested in selling. I told him we weren't at that stage but I would contact him when the time came around. He continually contacted me every year just to see where we were at. This year was the year 2025 and he got the job done for us. We are so happy with the result and his patience but also his persistence and expertise. We can' thank him enough and would recommend him to anyone without hesitation. Thank you, thank you, thank you.

Mr Honesty
We recently had the opportunity to take Daemon’s services to buy our first house, and we absolutely appreciate his professionalism, market knowledge, and patience. Being an immigrant can sometimes scare you to put your foot in the property market, but we are heartily thankful to Daemon for making the process transparent, well- explained, and seamless. He was extremely accommodating regarding scheduling the viewings on a short notice and went above and beyond to help us get exactly what we needed. Truly appreciate and highly recommended!
Buyer
Daemon is really good.
Daemon was always very professional and helpful with people who weren't familiar with the process of selling a property. He always kept his sense of humour even when dealing with uncooperative tenants. If we're ever in the situation of selling a property again we will definitely contact Daemon.

Paul Housiaux
5 star agent
I wanted someone to handle the sale of an investment property - to give advice on timing the sale and doing it in such a way as to not upset tenants. Daemon provided clear and precise advice on how to manage this, did so expertly and without any fuss. We achieved a good sale and I am very pleased with the outcome.

In safe hands
I would recommend Daemon to anyone who is looking for an excellent real estate agent. He is very aware of current market trends and communicates this in a very relaxed non pushy manner. He was in regular contact with us as the vendor either through face to face meetings or through messages on Whats App. He responds quickly to any queries. Although he is happy at advising he listens to what the vendor wants and will respond accordingly. He is totally professional even down to his sock choice!! Thoroughly recommended him
Peter Rout
Excellent real estate agent

No Wahs fans here but Fan of Daemons work
Selling a major asset was a little daunting as the market was very competitive when I decided to sell. Having to deal with a legal binding process and combing through details trying to understand what’s involved was not a welcome thought. Especially I was time poor. Daemon took me through every single step of the process to make sure that I fully understood the details involved; he also provided in depth analysis of my options so I could make an informed decision. Throughout the selling process Daemon was frequently in touch to keep my updated; he prompted me with all the actions that required considerations or attentions, and ensured all the decisions were made based on my full understanding. He executed every single task with great efficiency, (However he would never rush a decision if I was not really to make a call). Daemon was a delight to work with- he was down to earth, reliable, respectful and also very conscientious towards both vendor and purchasers. His attention to details was definitely second to none. I will highly recommend Daemon Van Riele to manage your property sale or purchase- If you want a professional, resourceful, high energy, focused, honest, and highly organised individual who understands the market to guide you through a sale and purchase process and to yield the best result.

It was a privilege to work with Daemon. highly recommended
We could not have asked for a better real estate agent to sell our South Auckland property. Daemon van Riele from Ray White Manurewa was persistent in getting the listing, diligent in organising open homes and viewings (while keeping our tenant happy and agreeable), great at communicating with prospective buyers resulting in a large number of bidder registrations, and then achieving an amazing result in trying times for the real estate market. He kept us up to date right the way along the process and we would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone buying or selling in South Auckland

Daemon managed the sale of my Dad's property in Weymouth a few months back. It was an extremely stressful and distressing time for our family as Dad's health deteriorated quite suddenly and we needed sound advice and clear guidance. Daemon was so kind, courteous and diligent. He proved to be a conscientious and knowledgeable sales person. Not only did he negotiate our sale within 2 days of going to market he secured a price far in excess of what we had been expecting, thereby securing Dad's ongoing care. I would totally recommend Daemon van Riel to manage your property sale or purchase.

Great team of agents, provide clear and concise communication and are always transparent. I know Daemon van Riele well, and his work ethic never ceases to amaze me. A highly diligent and reliable individual. In a market that is over-saturated with agents, Daemon has qualities and attributes that are very difficult to come by. Put your trust into Ray White Manurewa, and they will take care of the rest.
