We have used Tim over the years and have always had an efficient and positive experience. This sale was especially emotional for our whānau, as we were selling Mum’s home after her passing while supporting Dad to move back north. Tim and the team showed genuine kindness, understanding, and professionalism throughout the entire process. Communication was clear and timely, and we always felt supported and informed. Tim’s market knowledge and calm approach helped make a difficult situation feel much more manageable. We truly appreciated the care and respect shown to our family during such an important transition and would happily recommend Tim to others.
Tim and Nat did an amazing job for us, we were able to sell our home and purchase our new home , the process for us was super easy and we are super grateful
Mel truly goes the extra mile to achieve the best possible outcome for you. Her advice is always practical and transparent, with no hidden agenda. She communicates exceptionally well, keeping me informed at every stage of the process. Whenever I called or messaged, she responded promptly, and I always felt confident that everything was being handled efficiently. Mel also goes above and beyond by helping present your home at its best — even taking care of details like lawns and general presentation. Her knowledge of the market is outstanding. I would absolutely use her again and highly recommend her to anyone considering selling their property.
Mel was a proactive and engaged realtor. She worked with her colleagues to successfully sell our mother's house. Mel communicated with our whānau in a positive and approachable manner. She was organised and efficient. Mel continued her involvement till the sale reached final settlement. As a whānau we would endorse Mel as an excellent realtor,even in a difficult market. As she says on her billboard 'sell with Mel'.
As first-time homebuyers, we were unfamiliar with the process, but the agent was highly supportive, providing clear guidance and reassurance throughout, making the experience smooth and manageable. They demonstrated strong support, maintained clear communication, and was consistently easy to work with. A positive and professional experience overall.
Knows his stuff. Good communication and got the job done...sale done and dusted cheers Tim😁
We found Mel very knowledgeable through out the whole process. A fee price drops and challenges along the way. She asked us to trust her with the purchaser she had lined up and assured us she would make it happen and get enough $$$ for us to purchase our dream home through Property Brokers. It was touch and go and we had no time to waste, but Mel managed to get the Sale done in perfect timing to secure our forever home. Thanks again Mel!
As a first home buyer Nat provided great advice to help us navigate our way through the process into home ownership.Always happy to show us a range of options and prices so that we could better understand the market and make informed decisions,it's been great to work with Tall poppy and I would highly recommend them to anybody looking to purchase a home
They responded quickly and help with anything I needed
Tim and Nat were an amazing team full of knowledge, great communication and excellent in every way to deal with, going above and beyond Would highly recommend them to anyone

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.
