Latest reviews in Oamaru
Stephen is a very professional and hard working agent. He is friendly helpful and caring and relates so well to people of all ages. I found him to be understanding and ready to offer advice and his expertise in the property market is outstanding. I valued his honesty and integrity, his personal and caring approach.
Good at communicating and returning calls/txt.Was never over powering and a nice casual demeanor,and also offered other private services after the possession date. Our only disappointment whether it being agent issue or lawyers was at time of deposit failing to understand insurance information to deposit on due date.
Pip was understanding as market was sluggish with very little interest but once we had interested buyers the sale moved very quickly

Communication was fast and efficient, which assisted in a smooth and stress free process. We would certainly consider engaging Leona for any future sale and purchase we may undertake.
Pip was great to deal with. She was honest, accommodating and made the whole purchasing process stress free. We wish we had asked her to sell our property instead of the Agent we chose. We would highly recommend Pip to anyone looking to sell or purchase a property. Thanks again Pip.
Jan was great at keeping in touch and keeping me appraised of situations as they arose and/or evolved. She is well versed in the market and offering ideas to improve selling experience. She is quite low key in approach but onto all opportunities. I appreciate all her help and advice.
We had no real idea of how the whole process worked but Erin guided us all the way
Helped us with a recent purchase, with an older property. What more can you ask for..... responsive, friendly and helpful. The best attributes in an agent.
Sam was the most professional, friendly agent . Was a smooth easy process from start to finish. We felt very at ease in his presence and with him in our home for open homes. It was a quick process and he exceeded our expectations. Highly recommend Sam. Very happy
They do a great job to assist the property and helpful

The RateMyAgent Experience
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. Our Agent of the Year Awards and platform rankings are based solely on verified client feedback and performance. By celebrating excellence fairly and transparently, we help consumers find the best agents with confidence.
