Anna Findlay did an amazing job of selling our home. She has a wealth of real estate experience and local market knowledge. Very professional while also being friendly and approachable, she kept us well informed the whole way through. Anna has an easy, calm style and we felt like our home was in good hands. I loved that she even sorted someone to mow the lawns and a couple of outdoor pots to lift the entrance way. We have now bought and sold through Anna and both experiences have been fantastic, we couldn't recommend her highly enough. Thanks Anna!
Good professionalism and communication. Great negotiation skills and friendly agent.
Lisinda and Steph made selling our home easy and smooth. They comminccated well, and were honest and trustworthy. Thanks so much !
Great team and incredibly helpful throughout the entire process, especially as we were purchasing from overseas. They took the time to understand exactly what we were looking for and went above and beyond to accommodate us, arranging dedicated property walkthroughs via video calls. Steph was professional, attentive, and genuine from start to finish, making the experience smooth and stress-free. We would highly recommend LJ Hooker to anyone looking to buy or sell property.
Fiona and Hannah have sold for me before and once again delivered a great result. They’re hardworking, kept me informed throughout, and their My Tall Poppy system makes the process iery transparent and easy to follow. Highly recommend!

Whitefox - exceptional marketing, communication, market knowledge and vendor first approach. Sarah listens, explores and understood our requirements and personal needs, simply a pleasure to deal with and recommend Whitefox to anyone needing a Wanaka Queenstown property expert.
Communication was excellent and she has a vast knowledge of the market.The whole deal was very quick and hopefully both parties were happy - we certainly were.
Stephanie and Lisinda were fantastic from initial talks, to marketing, listing, open homes, sale negotiation, final sale and everything in-between. Sold out Wanaka home in recorded time and a more than acceptable offer. Would use them again 100%! Look no further, Wanaka's top real estate agents. Thanks!
Good to communicate with. Knowledgeable of the market. Looked into matters that arose quickly and found answers. Kept me up to date all the way. Always happy to help:)
All round helpful and considerate and successfully completed without any added stress on me Good communications Thank you both

The RateMyAgent Experience
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. All agents can request and collect reviews for free, and subscription status has no impact on rankings or award eligibility. Our Agent of the Year Awards and platform rankings are based solely on verified client feedback and performance.
