Who We Are
Papillon specialises in helping inner city Auckland suburb property owners maximise the appeal and saleability of their homes.
Homeowners will either work with us:
- before selecting a real estate agent and going on the market or
- if their property has been on the market for more than 35 days and remains unsold
Papillon is French for butterfly – our butterfly logo represents the beautiful transformation
