Latest reviews in Portobello
Julie gave us amazing support at every step of selling our house. She made an effort to listen to us as we work through things, giving professional, succinct and knowledgeable advice and direction. She gave us a lot of confidence through the whole listing and selling process, and made it easy to work with her. She responds quickly to all communications. We are very pleased with how she managed everything! Thank you Julie for a great experience!
We were delighted with Carissa's easy-going, friendly, approach, putting us totally at ease right from when we met her at the first open home. Not pushy at all, she was a good communicator throughout and - as we hadn't ever been through the auction process before - the way she patiently ran over it beforehand was extremely helpful on the day. I can't recommend her enough. Cheers Carissa, Ian
Great personality, professional, on to it!
Not only did Julie have an excellent knowledge of the local market, she knew exactly what the target market was and delivered two great offers in record time. She went the extra mile on all front even delivering a care package when I was unwell! What a star, easy to relate to, professional and hard working. A definite must if you're selling.
My partner and I were very fortunate to buy our first house in working with Julie - we bought the house while not being in the same region, but Julie kept us informed at every step of the process and went above and beyond in providing helpful recommendations and talking us through how it all works. We loved the special touches like getting a photo of the sign with a 'sold' sticker on it! Julie is great at what she does and we are so appreciative! :)

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.
