Rob was great to work with, very timely & helpful.
She knew my needs and responded swiftly, with the market knowledge and professional ability to close a quick deal to the satisfaction of both sides.
Shannan was the best we could ask for in any way. His communication, rapport and genuine love for what he does goes far beyond that of his role as a real estate agent. We walked away with so much more than just our dream property. We walked away feeling so lucky and we had Shannon to share in that. I would highly recommend Shannon to anyone in future.
Paula was a joy to work with. Our property had some challenges but she dealt with it so well and got it sold after another agency couldn’t get any interest on it! Will absolutely be dealing with Paula again!
I initially found Tess online and was drawn to her exceptional sales record. From start to finish, she and her team turned a potentially stressful selling process into a smooth, effortless experience. Her market knowledge, sharp strategy, and constant communication delivered an outstanding outcome. Thank you, Tess, for going above and beyond to get this across the finish line. I can’t recommend Tess and her team highly enough to anyone buying or selling!
When I first met Rob, I straight away felt comfortable with him. Call it a gut feeling or whatever, but I knew Rob would sell our property....and he did, in quick-smart time. In fact, Rob achieved a sale price for us at 30% higher than any other Whanganui agent/real estate company had previously presented to us. Rob made the whole process seamless with his jovial nature and friendly communication style. Hassle-free and drama-free. After listening to many other recommendations of which agent to run with, and dare I say it, wasting too much time with those other recommended agents, we chose Rob. The best choice by far in Whanganui. Rob's solid local knowledge and strong negotiation skills resulted in the best deal possible for us. So, save yourself some time and hop on the 'Rob Train' to sales success. ROB BENNETT - SIMPLY THE BEST !!!
Paula's communication was excellent throughout the entire process, and she was always friendly, approachable, and incredibly helpful whenever we requested additional information. We really appreciated Dom's patience when visiting the property a second time for measurements etc. The responses were consistently prompt, making the purchase feel smooth and stress-free. We would highly recommend Paula and Dom to anyone looking for professional, responsive, and genuinely supportive real estate agents. Five stars!
I couldn’t have imagined working with a better agent for the sale of my property. Shannon constantly went above and beyond for us and I couldn’t recommend him enough. He is extremely knowledgeable, kind and caring. He made the most stressful time of my life an enjoyable one.
Many thanks to Debbie Payne at Harcourts. Debbie is not afraid of a challenge and is very professional.
We have been lucky to have known Tess and her team for many years, so when it came to selling our first home there was no question who our agent would be. There were never any questions of commission, and who was the cheapest, because we knew regardless of that we would have the best care and service from Tess, Scarlett and Caitlin. From the outset, the communication has been top tier. A group chat to keep track of open homes and updates, reminders from the team when needed, so many good chats and positive vibes. Beautiful marketing, tailoring the sale to meet the market whatever that meant. We settled on the sale of what was our first home today, and the purchase of our next step - we walked into our new home to a beautiful photo book dedicated to our children and their first home, filled with photos. A big bow on the front door that will no doubt litter our home for many weeks haha. We cannot express how grateful we are to the team for making the sale and purchase of our homes so easy, exciting, and personal. The care and effort that has gone in to every interaction and meeting has been the best, and if we ever find ourselves in need of a real estate agent again, they will of course be our first call. Thank you ladies, for all that you do. We appreciate 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.

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.
