Sam Rathod

My decision to choose Lowe & Co was influenced by my previous role at Consumer NZ, where I was privy to the feedback behind the Consumer NZ People’s Choice Awards. Lowe & Co received outstanding feedback from both vendors and buyers, so I already had a strong sense of the reputation they had earned. My own experience has absolutely reinforced why. Sam is exceptional. She is incredibly genuine, honest and personable, and combines that with an impressive level of focus, market knowledge and determination to achieve the best possible result. What stands out most for me is the level of trust she creates. Sam is straight with you, genuinely has your best interests at heart, and you can rely on her judgement and advice. She understands the market, communicates exceptionally well and is incredibly results driven, without ever losing the personal element that matters so much when you are selling your home. Sam operates at a very high level of professionalism and integrity, while remaining warm, approachable and genuinely invested in the people she works with. I have already recommended her to others and will continue to do so without hesitation. I couldn’t have asked for a better person to sell my home.

Sam was exceptional. She was professional, knowledgeable, kind and incredibly helpful throughout the whole process. Her communication was excellent, she was always responsive and clear, and she went well beyond what I would ever expect from an estate agent to help me. What really stood out was how genuine and supportive Sam was. She made what can be a stressful process feel so much easier and I always felt I could trust her advice and approach. I wouldn’t hesitate to work with Sam again and would recommend her to anyone looking for an agent who is professional, capable and genuinely cares about the people she is working with.

Joh and I had an incredible experience selling with Sam and Murray. We originally purchased our property through them and had such a great experience we listed with them. From day one, they were incredibly helpful and genuinely invested in getting us the best possible result. We also really appreciated the male/female team dynamic. You get two different personalities, perspectives and energies, which we felt worked really well. Their advice before going to market was exceptional. They were upfront about what maintenance was needed, what could put buyers off, and what was actually worth spending money on. We trusted their advice and followed it to the letter. The staging company they recommended was fantastic and completely transformed the house. Their pricing strategy for our Deadline Sale was incredibly well thought out. In a “not so flash” market, the result was more than we could have hoped for. We had the most popular first open home across Lowe & Co, with around 50 groups through in the first week, and the house sold in less than two weeks for a price we were ecstatic with. What really stood out was just how hard they worked. They were doing private viewings before the first open home, constantly following up with buyers and making sure no potential buyer slipped through the cracks. They were incredibly responsive, even sending buyer questions through in the evenings so we could get answers back quickly. Sam has a real talent for being completely upfront and telling you how it is. We found that incredibly refreshing and it gave us a huge amount of trust in her advice. We also felt that same honesty helped build trust with buyers. Ultimately, we put a huge amount of trust in Sam and Murray and followed their advice, and it really paid off. The whole process was strategic, proactive and incredibly well managed from start to finish. We highly recommend them. Trust their advice, let them do what they do best, and your property is in very good hands.

Sam was fantastic to deal with throughout our first home purchase. We had been looking for over 18 months and crossed paths with Sam and her business partner Murray at quite a few open homes along the way. This purchase moved really quickly from listing to settlement and Sam was incredibly responsive at every step. She was thorough in walking us through the Sale and Purchase Agreement, making sure we understood every clause, and guided us through the process with care and never any pressure. Murray was also quick to respond when needed. Sam knew this was our first home and treated the whole purchase with a level of care that made it feel genuinely special, not just another transaction. Sam has excellent communication skills and is genuine, transparent and very easy to deal with. We'd happily recommend her to anyone buying looking for an agent to buy or sell. Thank you Sam and Murray!

We found Sam excellent to deal with. Her communication and professionalism made the process of purchasing our home smooth and stress free.

We’re incredibly grateful to Sam for her professionalism, honesty, and genuine approach. We had been looking for a new home for over 12 months and met Sam while viewing a property. Although it wasn’t right for us, Sam listened to what we after and kept in touch. Months later we finally found our new home through Sam as well as sold our existing one. From start to finish, we had complete confidence in Sam to sell our home. Sam kept us well‑prepared and fully informed at every stage, making the entire process smooth and stress‑free. We would recommend Sam without hesitation to anyone looking for an agent they can truly rely on and trust.
