From the initial meeting we had requested that the selling of our home be discreet. Graeme respected this during the entire process even down to not parking his car outside our driveway. His communication style was easy and effective and only providing updates where needed. He backed us on not under selling our home and negotiated with the eventual purchasers to achieve the figure required.

Our thanks to Karen Tippett for the recent sale of our much loved family bach in Waihi Beach. From the beginning her assistance was invaluable, due to storms we were unable to get to Waihi Beach from the Waikato and she viewed the property and got it on the market with very little input from us. Karen kept us informed and followed through on everything she offered and was able to put our mind at ease from a distance, in fact we only met up with her in person to sign the Sale & Purchase Agreement. We would have no hesitation in recommending Karen as an agent.

Graeme listened to what we wanted and showed us several options including arranging a viewing of a home not open on the day we visited. He facilitated the paperwork efficiently and in a timely manner. He kept in touch well. He and Samantha made a great team.

Graeme’s suggestions were helpful - house, deck and driveway cleaning put the property in its best light. His painter did a great job touching up a few areas. The marketing package fairly reflected the property without being over the top; photos and descriptions were accurate and presented the property well. Graeme was readily contactable, and responsive to requests. The auction was run extremely well, and a good outcome achieved - value for all parties. Thank you.

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.
