For someone who had not purchased a house in 20 years it was great to work with Debra in the purchase of my new pad. She was honest and provided guidance through the process working with both myself and the seller for the best outcome. It was also pleasing to have feedback from others in the market from agents to lending providers espouse the virtues of Debra lending more weight to the opinions and confidence he had in her.

It has been an absolute pleasure dealing with Debra and the Smart Real estate team, thank you very much for all of your hard work - much appreciated! Sandi & Scott

Debra was onto selling my property straight away even though I’d emailed in the evening I still received a call that night. Easy to deal with and exceeded my expectations. Would 100% recommend.

Immediate assessment of what was required,followed by appropriate marketing package,signage,staging and critical reporting of progress,culminating in the presentation of all offers and recommendations. Property sold without any hassles and most of all without the usual EXORBITANT fees charged by her competitors. Smart Real Estate is exactly what the name suggests but could be renamed Very Smart Real Estate. Thoroughly recommend Debra Hakaraia and Smart Real Estate for your next Real Estate project.

The best real estate company I have ever dealt with. Debra Very professional, experienced and helpful agents and brokers. Highly recommend.

I found my experience with buying my first home rather stressful and I did not feel the support or comfort with this agent even though she informed me she was there to support me as well. It is clear this is a very small and new company luckily I found support in buying this lovely home which I just love elsewhere. In the post expection I noticed carpet stains that were obviously hidden when dressed for viewings when told it was new carpet. Excited to get into my new home I asked agent if I needed to clean down before moving in her response was depends how clean you like things. I initially gave it a clean anyway and found more dirt n grime which should of been wiped down prior to selling. She advised she had emptied the bins which was fine till I opened them and the smell of horse manure or something really off ranked the bins out and cleaning them wasn't pleasant. My heatpump needed the filter cleaned a few weeks ago after only been in the property 4 weeks it looked like it had never been cleaned. I suggest some improvements to be made with this company if you wish to survive in this economy and thanks very much for the sale I am really enjoying my new home.

We had great communication with debra through the hole thing even when we went into lockdown for the 2 weeks made things really simple and easy.

Prompt,Efficient and did EXACTLY what she said she would whilst coordinating with two owner parties,the purchaser and 3 solicitors. Why you would bother with those agents who charge 4% plus for the privilege of charging you $10,000 more is beyond my comprehension. This lady is the consumate professional who achieves maximum results.

Debra was very professional in all she did. My husband says excellent and I totally agree. We couldnt be happier

We found Debra professional, friendly and knowledgeable. We achieved a realistic price for our rental property given the market conditions. We are happy to recommend her services.

I found Debra very easy to work with. She was professional and kept me up to date at all times. She worked hard on my behalf and achieved a very good result.

As buyers Debra was informative, helpful and professional. She kept us in the loop and was genuinely excited for us when the house was ours. A great result for everyone. Thanks again.
