We used Olivia due to her expert knowledge of the area. Every property on the market with Olivia was sold within days, a remarkable feat in this current market, and we were looking for a simple and fast sale, so Olivia and Team Atkins were the natural choice. Olivia kept us informed throughout the entire process, keeping it as straightforward as possible. I really admire the fact that she genuinely worked around our busy schedule, and this was a huge benefit for us. But most of all, I really admire Olivia's "no BS" style. She delivered on her promises, showed the right potential buyers around our property, and strove to get the maximum return as she could. I've had experience of over-promising and under-delivering, as well as poor market strategy, but Olivia gave us so much confidence in that her strategy was in our best interests, not hers. I can't recommend Olivia and Team Atkins any higher, especially if you are in the West Auckland area. True knowledge, expertise and guidance from Olivia!
Communication is first class, he follows through on what he says. He had great knowledge of the area and used great negotiation skills. He was very easy to deal with and I would highly recommend.
We recently purchased our first home through Olivia and couldn't be happier with the experience. She was friendly, knowledgeable, and kept us informed every step of the way. Her communication was excellent, and she made the buying process smooth and stress-free. Highly recommended.
We cannot recommend Olivia and her team highly enough! She came and met us where we were at, heard our goal and then got us there with ease. She was clear and prompt in all her communications and was incredibly respectful of the fact we are a busy young family. Olivia is the most knowledgeable agent in Waitakere by a mile, she knows her community and it shows.
Olivia’s communication was clear and friendly. We immediately felt at ease. She knows the area so well having been a local herself. She has such a strong eye for detail. She gets things done efficiently and confidently, and keeps everything running smoothly and well organised from start to finish — we felt confident trusting her with the sale of our home and would highly recommend her.
Gary knows the local market inside out, having worked in the area for years, and that depth of knowledge shows throughout the process. Communication is always clear and consistent, keeping things simple and stress-free, and guiding us through any uncertainties. He negotiates confidently with our best interest in mind. We’ve bought and sold with him three times now, and wouldn’t go anywhere else.
Alyshia has great market knowledge, The marketing was also above expectations!
Friendly receptive to communications and kept us up to date all the way
We had a great experience working with Emma and her team to sell our home at 15 Bethells Road. What started as a plan to sell and purchase another home in New Zealand evolved into a much bigger life change — relocating overseas — so it ended up being quite a long and complex process. We began the journey while still in NZ, but Emma supported us right through to the final stages while we were already living overseas. Despite the distance and changing circumstances, she made everything feel seamless and well managed. Her communication was clear, consistent, and reassuring, and she was always quick to step in and keep things moving when needed. Emma’s calm, solutions-focused approach made a real difference, especially navigating the challenges of managing a sale from another country. We felt supported every step of the way. We’re really grateful for the work Emma put in to achieve a great outcome for our family and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking to sell their home. Meitaki ma'ata! (Thanks so much!)
Emma and Abby were definitely the most genuine, no-bullshit agents we dealt with on our first home buyer journey. Emma was forthcoming with information and didn't beat around the bush like so many agents frustratingly do! We felt were treated with respect throughout and the communication was always fast. Following the purchase of our first home, Emma made the experience really special for us - we arrived to a huge bow on the front door, a welcome pack and even a nice note and gift 3 months later. We would definitely work with Emma again :)

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.
