We happen to met Sheree by chance in one of her open homes. I believe it’s an answered prayer for us. We were looking to buy a house, but we don’t know where to start. We were a bit hesitant to contact an agent to assist us with our planned purchase, because from our previous experience we felt a bit of a nuisance if we ask for private viewings. However, Sheree is different. She’s very friendly, approachable and patient. We can call her anytime during the day, to arrange private viewings. She always keeps us in the loop from day one. Her communication skills are great, easy to talk to and she LISTENS. Sheree has a great local insight, who knows the neighbourhood, and the market inside and out. She gives a spot on advice if we asked her. Our journey was not easy, there were lots of hiccups along the way, but Sheree was with us all throughout. At the end, we achieved a result that exceeded our expectations, we will definitely contact her in the future and will be highly recommended to my friends and relatives. Will not trust anyone else with our home. She is a Gem in this industry. Honest, clear and values her clients well.

We have worked with Sue and Donna previously when both purchasing and selling other properties. We sought their assistance again with this sale because we trust their commitment, advice, market knowledge and determination to achieve realistic outcomes. They communicate it a timely and professional manner to provide clear updates as well as wider sector reports. They don't overpromise but always find ways to engage potential purchasers and the vendor towards win-win solutions. Our property was a difficult house to sell because there were some building defects that were revealed as builders' reports were submitted. Sue offered realistic advice to meet the changed circumstances and provided factual advice to potential buyers and us as vendors that built confidence despite the unforseen defect hurdles. We have no hesitation in recommending Sue and Donna to potential vendors.
We engaged Sandra as our agent due to previous excellent advice and service with another purchase transaction. Sandra gave good advice re selling our property and what we needed to do to achieve a satisfactory result. Team Treloar (Sandra & Craig) set us on the right path with their dedication and advice. Would certainly recommend them to any future clients.

We couldn't be happier with the outcome of selling our property. After refining our marketing strategy with the team, we received a strong offer within just one week of going to market! Throughout the process, the team proved to be exceptionally professional, highly responsive, and clear in their advice. From navigating complex compliance details to cost-effective advertising and listing arrangements, they handled everything seamlessly and put our minds at ease. If you’re looking for real estate agents who truly listen, act fast, and deliver incredible results, we highly recommend them! Thank you so much for the fantastic work!

Stephen (along with his wife Simone) was a pleasure to work with. He kept us well informed on a regular basis and achieved a good result in a fairly flat market. He negotiated well on our behalf, networked well with the other Agent involved and displayed true professionalism at all times.

We can’t thank Chase and his wonderful team enough for helping us sell our home! From the very beginning, Chase brought an incredible level of knowledge, expertise and professionalism, guiding us through every decision with confidence and making what could have been a stressful process feel seamless. His advice and dedication played such a huge part in achieving a quick and successful sale, which ultimately allowed us to secure our beautiful future home. We are incredibly grateful for all the hard work, support and care Chase and his team put into the entire process. We couldn’t recommend Chase highly enough — if you’re looking for someone who knows the market and goes above and beyond for his clients, he’s your guy! Thank you again, Chase!

Every verified review on RateMyAgent is linked to a specific property transaction, ensuring that the feedback comes from real buyers and sellers. This also allows you to view key property details - such as location and number of bedrooms - so you can find reviews relevant to your own real estate journey. With our verification process, you can trust that the experiences shared are real, reliable, and helpful.
Integrity is at the core of what we do. We conduct rigorous daily integrity checks on all reviews, using multi-stage verification to analyse submission data and behavioural patterns for potential anomalies. Suspicious reviews may be rejected outright or escalated for further scrutiny by our internal team.
Transparency and fairness are core to how RateMyAgent works. While it’s sometimes assumed that only positive reviews appear on our platform, that’s not the case.
Only clients involved in an actual transaction with an agent can leave a review. This helps ensure authenticity and prevents fake or anonymous feedback. Agent's have no control over what’s written - every review, whether positive or critical, is published and remains visible.
Through verified reviews and price satisfaction insights, we highlight top-performing agents who consistently exceed client expectations.
