Sanjay is the best real estate agent anyone can have. He is very patient and doesn’t rush you to make a decision. With his extreme knowledge of the property market , the bank processes and legal requirements, he has been able to make us extremely comfortable in this journey of finding our home. He ensured that we view every property that we liked and then make an informed decision. Sanjay is always a call away and has answered our queries with a lot of patience. He never said a No to any request that we made. He has been clear and precise while providing information and we felt we could rely on him during this process. Thanks to Sanjay, we are extremely happy and delighted with the house that we have selected.
Chris was great at keeping me updated throughout this process, he goes the extra mile to make sure everyone understands what’s going on. Great job Thanks

It was very reassuring to have someone with Sandra's knowledge, credibility and professionalism guiding us.
We had an excellent experience working with Rachel Johnson from Ray White. Her communication throughout the process was outstanding. She was approachable, responsive and kept us consistently informed, making sure we understood every step along the way. Rachel demonstrated excellent market knowledge, providing valuable insights, realistic advice and a clear understanding of current market conditions. Her negotiation skills were particularly impressive. She approached discussions with confidence, professionalism and a strong focus on achieving the best possible outcome. What really stood out was Rachel’s professionalism and genuine commitment. She was approachable, honest, reliable and always willing to go the extra mile. We felt supported and confident knowing she was representing our interests. We would highly recommend Rachel Johnson to anyone looking to buy or sell property. She is a credit to Ray White and an excellent real estate professional.
As an agent, Sun is fully committed to provide sellers with a clear, easy-to-understand analysis of the current property market, along with viable alternatives, while working diligently to promptly resolve any challenges or concerns they may face. She provides a detailed analysis of the preferences and inclinations of the interested buyers visiting our open homes, and her calm, clear explanations were incredibly helpful.
From day one, Mike was a great communicator, he is very forthright and deals with factual information. We were kept well informed of the process at all times through Mike and his team and we had great faith and trust in him.

Charlotte was great to deal with she got the deal done! Thank you, Charlotte, for supporting both us and the vendor throughout the negotiation. We’re looking forward to moving into our new home.
We had an excellent experience with our real estate agent while purchasing our first home. Their communication was outstanding, and their knowledge of the property market was impressive. They were always available to answer our questions, provide guidance, and keep us updated throughout the process. What we appreciated most was their patience, determination, and never-give-up attitude. They worked hard during negotiations, understood our expectations, and helped us achieve a result we were genuinely happy with. Their professionalism, dedication, and genuine support made our home-buying journey much smoother. We highly recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable and hardworking real estate agent!
We did the open homes each weekend. Chris did advertising and followups. It was a system that worked well. We were never too busy and found we could easily answer visitors' questions. Chris followed up with a call after each open home. Chris also followed up with Auckland Council on a LIM report query and received a favourable answer to it. We could not have handled this without him. It precipitated the sale.

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.
