Ngaio was fantastic from the get go. We interviewed and ranked estate agents first. She worked with us to come up with a viable plan to sell the place, and was willing to make changes that we requested even though at the time they seemed a bit bizarre. We found her to be very approachable and she worked really well with potential buyers, working through the process with one of them to bring a sale that was satisfactory for both parties. I would engage her again and recommend her wholeheartedly.
Great person to deal with. Understands the ins and outs when purchasing a home. Certainly helped out more than she probably should have. Thanks Ngaio
Scott was great at keeping in touch from our first viewing of the property and checked in on our position up until we were ready to make an offer. He kept us informed throughout the process, especially with the property initially under another contract. The team were prompt at sending through information & agreements. We just had a slight miscommunication around our pre-settlement check date but otherwise Scott and the team were great to deal with!
As a first home buyer, honestly couldn’t have asked for a better run. I felt pretty confident Sam & Scott were keeping things fair on both sides, looking after my interests while still doing right by the vendor. Cracking mix of integrity and business know-how. It’s that kind of approach that actually helps people get into their first home, which is huge. Sam was awesome! always kept things moving and made sure I had the info when I needed it. That made a massive difference. Also have to say, her ability to keep me focused on this place when I was just about ready to keep house hunting was seriously impressive, not an easy job! I’ve gone with 4 out of 5 stars cause there’s always room to grow. But overall, I’d definitely recommend Sam and Scott good, honest people to deal with 👍
The first time I looked at the property Scott was not pushy and just happy to show me though. He was very helpful about the area and let the whole process work at my pace. I looked at property a couple of time and this was no bother as I felt he wanted this to be right for me . I would highly recommend Scot and his team to any body.
I approached Lee -Anne to view a unit in putaruru, she arranged a viewing with the tenants in a timely manner and communicated clearly as to what would be done to the property once the tenants leave. We turned on taps , lights , opened cupboards and wardrobes . We had a thorough viewing . She also showed me another property to compare with and I felt she had listened to my needs in a home . We talked about the currant buying market I felt reassured in my decision to buy at that time . We negotiated on a price and I liked that she was clear as to the vendors expectations. I would highly recommend Lee-Ann Stuart her professionalism is top notch, she also called to see how I was at times as she understood my situation. She goes above and beyond for clients .
We had a great experience working with this real estate team. They were professional throughout the process and worked closely with us to achieve the best possible outcome. Communication was great, with regular updates that kept us informed every step of the way. Highly recommend their services.
Scott was very helpful and accommodating throughout the process.
Scott was confident and worked with me, even though the didn't sell at the auction, I think by the end of the day it did and he came over about 7pm or 7.30pm with 2 offers ,this really made ,not just my day, but gave me a chance to move forward with my life and I will never forget that, incredible feeling, unreal, and his team were also great and helped me through this difficult period of my life
This is our second time working with Scott, and can’t fault him, I’d rung and talked with him about what we were after and within a week he had rung with a perfect property for us and we didn’t hesitate. It shows that a good, ongoing relationship is essential for great outcomes and Scott does this perfectly. Thank you Scott!

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.
