Choosing the right agent makes all the difference, and I couldn’t be happier with my decision to work with KellyO. From our very first meeting, Kelly and his team gave me complete confidence that my property was in capable hands. They took the time to understand my goals, developed a thoughtful marketing strategy, and remained persistent and proactive in finding the right buyer. Their dedication, professionalism, and hard work truly paid off, and I’m absolutely delighted with the outcome. I’m grateful for the care and commitment they brought to the entire process. I would wholeheartedly recommend Kelly and the KellyO team to anyone looking for a professional, trustworthy, and results driven real estate team.
Selling a property for the first time can feel quite stressful and overwhelming, but Adam and his whole team made the whole experience so much easier. From the very beginning, he was incredibly supportive, approachable and genuinely invested in getting the best outcome for me. As this was my first time selling a property, I really appreciated having Adam there with me every step of the way. His communication was excellent he was always easy to reach, kept me updated throughout and was always happy to answer my questions or explain things when I wasn’t sure. His knowledge of the market gave me a lot of confidence, and I always felt I was getting honest and well-informed advice. He was also a great negotiator and worked hard to achieve the best possible result. He was professional, reliable and went above and beyond throughout. I’m really grateful for all his help and would absolutely recommend Adam to anyone looking to sell their property.
Megan is an absolute expert and ultimate professional in her field. We live in Auckland and so finding someone who knows the local area and market, whilst being a clear, timely and frank communicator to do the best for us and our property was really important. We are so glad we found Megan. Having a previously tenanted property we required quite a few trades to go through to get it market ready and Megan was incredible as our go-to person on the ground to arrange access, provide feedback to us around progress and flag new issues. We had some challenges along the way and Megan flexed with us, providing solid counsel, whilst reminding us that we only need 'one buyer' and that rang totally true in the end with us (finally!) achieving our selling goals. Thankyou doesnt cover it. Trust and choose Megan.
We chose Nicholas to sell our house after reading all of his fantastic reviews, and from the get-go, we could see exactly why he comes so highly recommended. This man truly lives and breathes real estate and works incredibly hard. He was always available to answer our calls and questions personally, and it was clear throughout the whole process that he genuinely cared about us as sellers. We had a somewhat unusual selling experience. Unfortunately, due to the market, our house didn’t sell within the timeframe we needed, and it eventually came off the market. However, Nicholas had built such a good rapport with one of the interested buyers that, months later, the buyer contacted him again and a private sale was arranged. We are incredibly happy to have finally made the sale and are very grateful for all of Nicholas’s hard work, persistence and support along the way. We would have no hesitation in recommending him to anyone looking to sell their property.

Jason, Ben and the Oliver Road team were excellent to deal with. They know the local market intimately and were able to provide feedback, advice and answer any technical questions in a timely manner throughout. They were also respectful of the time required to get a large house ready for viewings and ensured we had a good level of notice. They even pushed back politely when some potential purchasers were being a little unreasonable! The marketing and photography/videography were exemplary and showed the house to its best advantage. Can't recommend them highly enough!
Glen was great in my trying times worked with me day and night he did more in two weeks than any agent did in three months I’m truely thankful for his expertise manner and kind approach many thanks to his team as well
We have recently worked with Brent, Andre, Katia and the team on the sale of my mother’s property in a market that was flat and changing negatively quite quickly. While the softer market meant we didn’t achieve the result we may have hoped for, we couldn’t be happier with the work the team put in to help us achieve the best possible outcome. Their advice to complete a building inspection early in the process was extremely valuable. It helped us properly understand the property, identify the key areas that required attention, and present a suitable product to the market with confidence. Throughout the campaign, communication was excellent. We were kept well informed about buyer activity, market feedback, and how the property was being received. That insight helped us make informed decisions around promotion, presentation, and pricing as the campaign progressed. We also received great guidance on the work required around the marketing campaign, which ultimately helped us sell the property under a multi-party offer. Given the market conditions, we felt this was a great result. We are very grateful for the professionalism, effort and care shown by Brent, Andre, Katia and the wider team, and will continue to recommend them to others considering selling their property.

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.
