Latest reviews in Otaua
We engaged Emily to sell our property while living overseas, and the experience was excellent. Her communication was clear, timely and proactive, despite being in different time zones. She went above and beyond to assist with a seamless transition and co-ordinated all the on-the-ground details (including tenants, stagers, marketing and various trades). We highly recommend Emily to any owners looking for a trustworthy, capable and professional real estate agent. She will meet all your expectations and more.
Emily was a great help with purchasing my first property, made the process simple and run smoothly!
Great person to deal with very professional
We had a great experience with Jo. Jo had great market knowledge, negotiation skills and she was very dedicated to help. We appreciated her patience and support during our negotiation process.
We reached out to Gary to sell our property on our behalf as we had the pleasure of working with Gary on a previous property of ours. Gary is very professional with high standards and expects the very best for his clients. He always kept us informed with every open home, viewing, potential buyer and guided us through our sale yet still leaving us feeling in control, it was a great balance (well done Gary) Thank you Gary for working with us, we really do appreciate all your hard work that got the result we asked for.
Deborah is warm and friendly and communicated very well. She is very professional with a very high level of market knowledge.. We are very happy with her services and would not hesitate to contact her again . We would like to thank her very much for everything that she has done.

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.
