Selling a property can be stressful, but Rebecca made the entire process incredibly easy from start to finish. I had no worries throughout the sale, as I was kept informed, everything was handled professionally and efficiently. Rebecca's knowledge, communication, and dedication gave me complete confidence every step of the way. I'm extremely happy with the outcome and would highly recommend to anyone looking to sell their property.
Greg was great to deal with. He was patient and always quick to respond to questions in a clear and professional manner sharing his deep knowledge of the property market. This made the selling process smooth and as seamless as can be.
Purchasing this home was everything for us. We would like to say a huge thank you to Anjie, Khali and Alison. For all their behind the scenes work that helped us cement our future. We truly appreciate it.

Jackie went above and beyond to sell my property. Her patience and support has been outstanding through tough market times. Thank you so much Jackie
Smith + Bishops expertise and exceptional market knowledge in the local real estate market was evident from our first meeting with Alison. As a team these professionals truly went above and beyond to help sell Mum & Dads home, from their slick and personalised marketing and advertising of the property, to seeing them put the ‘sold sign’ up on the property advertising sign. They have been an absolute pleasure to work alongside and at all times we put our full trust in their hands and have felt supported and informed every inch of the way. One of their most outstanding skills was the communication via a ‘Messenger’ link, keeping all the family parties in the loop on daily / weekly progress and processes. This was both efficient and effective in keeping us all informed. They promptly answered calls and emails, keeping us informed about every development. Their ability to clearly explain complex contract details was invaluable. Alison, Anjie and Khali genuinely cared and supported us on every step of our journey and we can’t thank them enough. From that first meeting to the closing process, ‘Team Smith + Bishop’ were by our side, offering guidance and reassurance and most importantly genuine care and concern for us all as a family and always professional and reliable. As a family we would highly recommend them as a team to help you with any real estate needs. You won’t be disappointed. Thanks so much Alison, Anjie and Khali you really are ‘Superstars’ 🌟

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.
