Lovely first impression when met Elaine in Makikihi, showed us around and told us about all of the local points of interest. Unfortunately at the time we were having trouble selling our previous home so we had to walk away. A few months later after we finally managed to get under contract and she was very helpful in assisting us in negotiations with her vendor. She was always pleasant and easy to work with and I wish her the best for the future.
Elaine kept in contact weekly and all the details of the property and sale which way were very grateful for and very impressive professional service we recommend Elaine for her perseverance and selling a property.
What a great experience, right from the first open home we attended, to the now exciting wait for settlement. Every step of the way Shey has been absolutely wonderful to deal with, fantastic communication, no questions to big or left unanswered! Keep up the fantastic work chick, thank you for helping this be so easy!
Highly recommend Red Hot real estate Waimate Great communication Very pleasant to deal with Thank you so much for selling our house
We found Christine to be very approachable and her knowledge of the market around our district was very well informed. We found Christine extremely easy to get along with and her sense of humor was awesome. Christine was always professional and did a great job in selling our property in a market that isn't easy at the moment. We would strongly recommend Christine to anyone looking for an agent who is up to date in the SC area and who will go the extra mile to get the job done.
Christine went out of her way to organise viewing properties at short notice and understood what we were looking for. She is honest in her dealings and her personality is easy going and down to earth, we felt we could trust her, which is a valuable asset in any sales environment.

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.
