Michelle was fantastic at helping us finding a property. We had some hiccups beyond Harcourt's control along the way and Michelle worked tirelessly to help us reach solutions and ultimately settle into our forever home. Michelle has local market knowledge and helps match properties to the needs of the client. She helped us make the process as smooth and stress-free as possible.
Selling our home with Jonathon was a great experience from start to finish. He was professional, approachable, and incredibly flexible throughout the entire process. Communication was clear and timely, and nothing ever felt like too much trouble. What really stood out was Jonathon's ability to keep momentum throughout the campaign. He stayed focused, kept us informed every step of the way, and worked hard to achieve a successful result. His knowledge of the market and calm, positive approach gave us confidence throughout what can often be a stressful process. We truly appreciated his dedication and commitment to getting the job done. We would happily recommend Jonathon to anyone looking for an agent who is reliable, proactive, and genuinely easy to work with.
Nick was an excellent agent to work with and made the sales process straightforward and relatively stress-free, which we especially appreciated as we were selling remotely. He maintained excellent communication throughout, keeping us informed every step of the way. We would highly recommend Nick to anyone looking to sell their property. Many thanks!
Jo was outstanding assisting us with the purchase of our property, her communication with us was very good and very knowledgeable of the market . A wonderful agent to work with, professional and very friendly. We highly recommend Jo to all. Thank you Jo 😊
Glenn has great interpersonal skills and we enjoyed dealing with him. Furthermore, he was very responsive and solution-oriented, which was especially important to us as we wanted to go through the purchasing process quickly.
Michael and Anton were both very friendly and helpful, they both had great market knowledge and their communication throughout the process was amazing. Their negotiation skills were much appreciated, gaining a great and fair outcome for myself and for the vendors. I am very grateful I had this team supporting me through this property purchase and will be strongly advising anybody that is selling or buying in the future to use this team to make the process as smooth and easy as mine.

Working with Samantha was an outstanding experience from start to finish. Her communication was exceptional as she kept us informed at every step of the process, always making sure we knew what was happening and what to expect next. That level of transparency made what can often be a stressful experience feel smooth and manageable. What really set Samantha apart was how genuine and human she was in every interaction. Nothing felt forced or transactional, instead, it felt like she truly cared about us and our situation. That authenticity made a huge difference and gave us complete confidence throughout the process. Samantha gave us the freedom of choice with every decision that was made, even down to the marketing material that was used and the wording of the house listing. That really kept us connected to the sale of our house, which meant we were up to date and informed right from the start. There were no surprises. We couldn’t recommend Samantha more. If you’re in the Marlborough region and are looking for someone who is not only highly professional but also genuinely invested in her clients, she’s the one to work with.

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.
