Working with Shey is an absolute pleasure. She’s incredibly friendly, so easy to communicate with, and always picks up the phone. She is always striving to better understand my criteria - making the whole buying process so much easier. Her work ethic is honestly unbelievable — she goes above and beyond to get things done, a genuine hard worker. Highly recommend!
Helpful and able to help out through various issues
From our first contact with Shey and Jeremy their energy and enthusiasm stood out. Their communication, commitment and professionalism were outstanding. A motivated team who worked hard to produce a sale. We would not hesitate in using team Kartola again. Thank you!!!

Carly is a great communicator who has exceptional market knowledge and negotiation skills. She exemplifies professionalism in the way she deals with both client and vendor.
Very professional even though we already knew him
We had a fantastic experience selling with Amanda from Arizto. She made the whole process easy and stress-free, keeping us informed every step of the way. The app was a game changer—we could track viewings, interest, and feedback in real time. We achieved a great sales result, and it proved that just because the sign wasn’t from a big agency, didn’t mean we didn’t get full, top-quality service. Not to mention the thousands we saved in commission fees! Amanda went above and beyond to deliver such a great outcome, and we couldn’t be happier. We’d absolutely recommend her to anyone looking to sell their home!
After selling in Australia we decided to move to Timaru and began searching for suitable homes. The only issue was that we were living in Nelson, so much of the work had to be done by remote control. Enter and Hannah and Julian. They presented a range of suitable properties and then supported us through the offer and negotiation process to make sure we got the one we wanted. They were proferssional, easy to deal with and important;ly helped get the deal we wanted across the line. After the sale, they also went the extra mile to help with details. Al from almost 600km away. We couldn't be happier and can't recommend Team Blanchard enough Ken & Nik
Joelle was excellent to work with, always helpful, available and great with communication. Thank you.
Rhonda did a great job at finding a buyer for our property in what was a challenging market. We were very very happy with the outcome at the end of the process!
Rhonda has lived in the area for many years and knows the market well. She is very professional. Rhonda has helped us during our viewing, purchase and is still helping us after we bought the property.

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.

By celebrating excellence fairly and transparently, we help consumers find the best agents with confidence.
