Renee is one of the best real estate agents i have dealt with over the past 3 years. She kept me in the loop through every step of the way and regularly checked in with me and provided advice. She is super invested in her clients and hardworking, ensuring i had multiple options lined up when needed and made the process seamless. She is a friendly, honest, positive and easily approachable agent who i would happily deal with again in the future. Highly recommended! A+++
Janet facilitated the buying of our property smoothly and as stress-free as possible. She was professional, easy to communicate with, and provided very comprehensive information compiled on the property, which showed her knowledge of the market and vast experience. She never pressured us, kept us up to date, (which was not easy as the vendors were overseas), and was there to answer any questions when we needed her. We would definitely recommend Janet's services. Thank you Janet!!
I had an issue regarding my house purchase and Renee helped in negotiations and keeping things under control and helped in getting quotes for some repairs which required. Renee does work out of the box whenever required. Really appreciate her support and overall experience.
Tina went above and beyond for our compassionate situation. We weren’t able to be in Whangarei so everything was done remotely. Her communication was excellent and she really worked hard to make things as smooth as possible for us. The photos were so great and marketing got the house so much attention. Thanks so much!!
Joy has been an absolutely amazing Agent, going out of her way to make sure we had all of the information we needed to purchase at auction. She was very friendly and personable making the whole process less stressful. Thanks Joy!
Good communication and her professionalism and knowledge helped us understand the sale marketing system and achieve a great result.
Tracy was professional, accommodating, and a pleasure to work with. She kept me informed throughout the sale of my house and made the entire process smooth and stress-free. I highly recommend her.

Honestly couldn’t have done it without Fiona, she had both our best interests and the sellers on her mind. She worked for both parties and had great communication. We had been looking for a while and Fiona really made the buying process easy and exciting! We are actually going to miss seeing Fiona, as she felt like more to us than just a real estate agent. Cannot recommend her enough.

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.

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.
