Jenni was so helpful & hard working at finding us a suitable new home!!! We are a retired couple who wanted to downsize our choice of home & also wanted a pleasant & peaceful outlook after living for many years overlooking Lake Wakatipu- a hard act to follow! We also wanted proximity to shops & public transport. Jenni worked tirelessly to achieve such a property & she did it! Jenni also assisted us at the auction when we purchased. We thoroughly recommend Jenni as an agent - she is a lovely person with a great sense of humour.

Tom and Ryan kept in touch with us regularly to pain a picture of where things were at. When the unexpected happened they worked with us to get the best outcome. They also had some simple practicle tips to help us present the property in the best way possible.
Debbie did an outstanding job selling our home. She handled every detail, making the entire process as stress-free as possible. Her market knowledge and communication were excellent throughout, and we always felt informed. Most importantly, we trusted her completely and felt confident that our home was in safe hands.
If I am buying or selling realestate in Christchurch ever again I will definitely use Thomas and Guy. Their professionalism and knowledge of their chosen profession shows through right from the first meeting. We have known a large number of agents over the years. These people are the gold standard.

I had the absolute pleasure of working with Tom Hardy to sell my home, and I couldn’t recommend him more highly. From our first meeting, Tom set my mind at ease with his calm confidence, excellent communication, and genuine care. He ran an incredibly successful campaign for me and made the whole process feel easy and stress-free. Tom is exceptional at what he does—charismatic, professional, and backed by a fantastic team. He took the time to get to know me on a personal level, always kept in touch, and consistently went out of his way to support me through each step. The auction was incredible, and the result exceeded my expectations. I would strongly recommend Tom to friends, family, and anyone looking for a real estate agent with true star quality.

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.
