Darrell and his team were fantastic throughout the entire sales process. Darrell was an excellent communicator from start to finish — always professional, approachable, and supportive. He even made himself available during his holiday in Japan to assist with the settlement process, which truly showed his dedication and commitment to his clients. What could have been a stressful experience turned into a smooth and enjoyable one. I especially appreciated the genuine care, guidance, and reassurance Darrell provided throughout the journey. He was a great middleman between the vendor and purchaser, helping both parties feel heard and happy with the outcome. Wishing Darrell and The Move team all the very best moving forward. Highly recommend!

Paige’s kind and professional nature made her a pleasure to deal with . She had great communication skills and kept us informed throughout the whole process . She certainly knowledgeable and went the extra mile .
Paige was honest and genuine in her approach; she is an engaging communicator and has the ability to connect and balance both parties in an empowering way. She communicated well throughout the whole process, and I was very aware of what was happening and when. Nothing was ever an issue to address, and it was very easy to arrange meetings with her even with little notice. It is not an easy ability to attend to people's needs - I know I am an experienced Social Worker however she did this in an incredibly smooth way it was impressive. After MANY fruitless open homes and interacting with many real estate agents Paige was definitely the best, gentle & kind, non-invasive, prompt, great communication, no pressure and genuine.

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.
