Latest reviews in Kew
I recently had the pleasure of working with Craig Heyrick from Harcourts to sell my property on Dunbeath Street in Invercargill, and I cannot recommend him highly enough. Having been involved in property investment for the past 11 years, I have dealt with many agents, and I can confidently say that Craig is among the absolute best. Throughout the entire process, he provided an exceptional experience that was both quick and completely hassle-free. What stood out most was Craig’s professionalism and integrity. His communication was fantastic—he kept me informed at every step, and there was never any misleading information. Furthermore, his advice on how to tidy up and present the property was A1 and clearly made a difference. Craig is an absolute professional who makes the selling process seamless. I would not hesitate to deal with him again in the future, and I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a top-tier real estate agent.
Adam was exceptional in helping us with our house purchase. Very responsive (not more than 5 minutes wait on most correspondence). Very knowledgeable of current market movements. We had a couple hurdles throughout the process that Adam helped to take care of and get it over the line. No question was ever a bad question for him! Well looked after.
Daryl was very helpful and knowledgeable.
We’ve had a great experience working with Adam. He is very responsible, attentive, and genuinely take the time to listen to their clients’ needs while offering professional and practical advice. We entrusted them with the management of all our rental properties, as well as the sale of two of our houses, and both Adam and Tracy handled everything with great care and attention to detail. Since we are not based in Invercargill, having them manage things for us has been incredibly reassuring and hassle-free. Highly recommended to anyone looking for reliable and trustworthy agents.
The Olivias were so easy to work with, great communication keeping us up to date with open homes, interest from buyers, sale progress etc., always available for questions and getting us into viewings. We really trusted them to get a great price and the right buyer for our property and they definitely delivered. Would 100% work with them again!
Max was fantastic to work with, went above and beyond and was easy to deal with. Would recommend to anyone.
Lara was amazing during the purchase of our new home. She was kind and fair and explained the process at each stage and what we needed to do. I would recommend Lara and would definitely go back to her in future
Travis took over the listing of our property from another salesperson. I found him to be communicative, and direct in his assessment of the property. He took time to explain the conditions contained in the two offers he presented, and made clear recommendations for me to consider. I would be happy to work with Travis again and I’m comfortable recommending him to others looking to buy or sell a property.

The RateMyAgent Experience
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. All agents can request and collect reviews for free, and subscription status has no impact on rankings or award eligibility. Our Agent of the Year Awards and platform rankings are based solely on verified client feedback and performance. By celebrating excellence fairly and transparently, we help consumers find the best agents with confidence.
