What we love about Fiona is her passion balanced beautifully with her consideration for us! She wholeheartedly marketed well, gave us guidelines, and listened to our thoughts and feelings, and yet she always invited us to make our own decisions and think through outcomes. When we were selling our home she helped people see value, pointed out strengths of the property, as well as highlighting potential for future improvements, such as a space for a large shed to meet their requirements. She couldn't have been more helpful when we were purchasing a property. She believed with us that we would find the right place; it was such a delight to be connected with an agent that gave us inspiration, was always quick to respond to questions, and genuinely cares for people. Thank you so much Fiona.

Professional, superb marketing campaign great attendance at open homes, guidance through the auction process and negotiated with prospective purchasers to achieve solid sale price in a challenging market.
Outstanding service from start to finish. The marketing campaign was executed to a very high standard and attracted significant buyer attention, leading to excellent turnout at every open home. Their guidance through the auction process was invaluable, and their negotiation skills with interested buyers ultimately secured a strong sale price despite the tough market conditions. A true professional who delivers results.

Great communication, easy to contact about any queries. Very happy with our experience.
Craig and Carina, You were so helpful and informative from the outset, knowing that we had yet to put our home on the market, basically kept us in the loop as to potential interest. When we were in a position to make an offer (which luckily happened very quickly from our end) were happy to assist and easy to deal with in getting the agreement signed up. They did all the running around! Thank you both so much for your infectious positivity! Dealing with you felt more like a friendship, not a transaction. You're right, it did all come together and just felt like the right property for us.
We have now brought once and sold twice through Shane and I can guarantee that when the time comes to buy or sell again we will put our trust with Shane over and over again. More so Ben (Shane's prodigee) walking in established and experienced shoes these two make a unbreakable team for both sellers and buyers. I am so grateful for the professional yet personable approach offered with consistently under the Harcourts brand with high standards and service delivery. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts

Sandie did a great job of communicating and looking after the open homes when Rae was away thank you Sandie.
Rae is a friend of mine and only person I trusted to sell my property. She has great determination, on point marketing and desire to see success in everything she does. Thank you Rae for your consistency in communication, honesty and persistent in not giving up.
Initially we had a private sale on Trade Me. That turned out to be a waste of time and money. Kim phoned when she saw the 'For Sale' sign, as she knows the area and the present market. We decided to list with her and this was definitely the best decision. She suggested ways to enhance the home, as it was cluttered. Kim is compassionate, caring and honest. Without her commitment and loyalty, we would possibly still be on the market. She gives 100% and we are forever grateful for all Kim has achieved for us through this very emotional time. Kindest regards Jeanette
Kim was easy to work with and prompt at returning my calls. I would recommend her to anyone wishing to buy or sell real estate.

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.
