Helen was an outstanding agent to work with. She’s a great negotiator with a very strong process behind her, and she follows up on every lead with genuine commitment. Helen is relatable to a wide range of people, brings great energy, and is clearly hungry to achieve the best result for her vendors. Her knowledge of the local market is excellent, and we always felt she had our best interests at heart. We highly recommend Helen to anyone looking to sell.

Kim is a consummate professional with a vast knowledge of property sales and the local market. It was a genuine pleasure to have Kim market our property. We went along with her suggested marketing strategy and it worked perfectly. We were kept informed about each open home and the feedback from the people viewing. Kim has a great team to support her and they work well together. I would not hesitate to thoroughly recommend Kim as your agent.

Our campaign could have gone a lot smoother had it not been for the changeover of brand name to BOWER_ and all that entailed; change of signage (less pictures, no address), disruption to internet listings. None of this was the responsibility of the agents That aside, we achieved a good result

Sue sold us our home and she and Jack have great local networks that ensured we had good attendance at our open homes. They bring different skills to the table and work well together as a team. They were hard-working, knowledgeable, helpful and professional in their interactions. Would recommend!
Great communication maintained through out the house buying process. Very helpful and easy to work with.
Working with Nathan Gill was an absolute pleasure. Their customer service was fantastic from start to finish - always approachable, helpful and genuinely invested in achieving the best outcome. Communication was clear and consistent, which made the whole process smooth and stress free. Professional, reliable, and a true team player, Nathan Gill went above and beyond to deliver excellent service. I would happily recommend them to anyone looking for a trusted and professional agent.
I can’t recommend Lee Stringer highly enough. From start to finish the service was first class. Professional in both approach and methodology, they made me feel reassured and confident throughout the entire process. Their ability to think outside the box really set them apart, and the results spoke for themselves. Customer service was truly outstanding - nothing was ever too much trouble, and I always felt well supported. If you’re looking for an agent who goes above and beyond, Lee Stringer is the one to call.

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.

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.
