Marine was professional, approachable and an absolute pleasure to work with. Her communication was excellent, keeping us informed and reassured every step of the way. We would happily recommend Marine to anyone looking for a friendly, professional and dedicated agent. Thank you, Marine, for making the entire experience such a positive one!
The experience of selling our home with Wyatt has been very positive. We appreciated the honest, calm approach- he made the experience feel relaxed and easy. He has been so helpful and willing to share his knowledge to help during the entire selling and buying process. He went above and beyond to give us guidance. Wyatt was very easy to work with and we are happy with our choice to list with him
Regular followup and even after the listing was lost to another agent.
Roei and his team were fully committed throughout the whole marketing process. They never gave up.
Wyatt was very relaxed, straight forward, non-pushy, friendly. Did an excellent job helping us navigate the process and feel comfortable throughout. Appreciate and would recommend
Jilly was responsive and followed up on answers to questions. She was friendly and made the whole first time house buying easy.
Professional, knowledgeable, and always responsive. They made the process smooth and stress-free. Highly recommend!"
I can’t recommend Jilly more! She was supportive and clear throughout the process, and made sure we were kept up to date with everything that was going on. Some agents can feel a bit ‘salesy’ but that’s not the cast with Jilly, she is totally genuine. We love our house and don’t plan to move anytime soon, but would use her as our agent in a heartbeat. Highly recommended!
After selling our house receiving multiple offers by the hard work the Glen put in, of course we had to use him for our Mothers house. Which he got a contract on it at the first open home. Glen takes the stress out of selling one’s house and never fails to keep updating on progress. We have just recommended him to sell our neighbors house also 🤗
We had an exceptional experience working with Lana as first-time homebuyers, and we could not recommend her highly enough. From the very beginning, Lana was incredibly diligent, kind, communicative, and patient. She took the time to walk us through every step of the home-buying process, making what could have been an overwhelming experience feel clear, manageable, and even enjoyable. She was always available to answer our questions, and there was never a question too big or too small for her to take the time to investigate and provide us with a thoughtful, informed answer. What stood out most was how genuinely invested Lana was in helping us. She consistently went above and beyond, making sure we understood our options and felt confident and supported throughout the entire process. Her professionalism, attention to detail, and willingness to go the extra mile made such a positive difference for us. We have truly enjoyed working with Lana and are incredibly grateful to have had her by our side during such an important milestone. If you are looking for a real estate agent who is knowledgeable, responsive, patient, and genuinely cares about her clients, we wholeheartedly recommend Lana. She was fantastic to work with, and we would recommend her to anyone without hesitation. Thank you, Lana!

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.
