Lou and Matt have made our first home purchase an enjoyable experience from start to finish, from initial query to move-in. I will not hesitate to recommend them to any potential vendors, and any buyers can have the confidence that they're dealing with trustworthy and knowledgeable agents that look after their interest as well. I don't think we'd have made the wonderful decision to buy our first home if not for Lou and Matt.
From start to finish, Ryan and his whole team were exceptional to deal with. Communication was outstanding, with regular updates, quick responses, and clear advice throughout the entire process. But where Ryan really delivered was in the negotiation. They were proactive, persistent, and clearly focused on achieving the absolute best result for us. We always felt they were firmly in our corner and working hard to maximize the outcome. Professional, sharp, responsive, and very good at what they do. We wouldn’t hesitate to use Ryan again and would recommend them to anyone thinking about selling.
Carlie was very easy to work with as we went through the purchase process. She was always available to clarify any issues and we felt she had strong relationships with both ourselves and the vendor which made it easy to get information and clarity. She knows the market well and is a lovely person to deal with. We would not hesitate to recommend her and her team.
We enlisted the services of Team Rupert Kemeys due to us having dealt with them previously. Also, they had recently sold a neighboring property and had left their flyer at our property, which to us demonstrated their desire to obtain the listing. At our initial onsite appraisal we found Rupert very professional, beautifully presented and personable. We found his appraisal honest and accurate with him having very good market knowledge. Therefore we enlisted his services on the spot without the need to meet with other agents. We were provided with a detailed marketing plan which involved two open homes through to a deadline sale. At first we thought we would extend that to three open homes, however upon reflection we decided to remain with the initial plan which turned out to be absolutely the way to go. We were absolutely delighted with the photography and felt they had captured the true essence of the property. The video of Rupert and Scoota was cute ! After twelve days on the market, two open homes and numerous private viewings, we were presented with three offers at deadline. One of which we immediately accepted. Team Rupert Kemeys set up a group Whats App Chat which made our communication seamless. We really didn't require their more formal updates as we felt we were 'in the loop' throughout the entire process, therefore their communication style was brilliant and really suited us. With having recently sold a neighboring property, Team Rupert Kemeys brought with them their data base of prospective purchasers looking to purchase in the area, which could only have been advantageous to our sale. Therefore, in summary we could not speak more highly of Team Rupert Kemeys. We are more than happy to endorse their services and will most certainly entrust them with any future properties. Richard and Megan Lower Hutt
Thanks again to Des and his amazing team for helping me sell my property. Des went above and beyond to get this house sold and I couldn't have asked for anything else. You guys are amazing and I wouldn't trust anyone else with getting the job done :)

Nicky was excellent at communicating with us. From when we first decided to put an offer on she helped us through each step of the process. She kept reaching out to us to make sure things were going smoothly for us and even gave us a few solicitors to try which we were extremely grateful for. As someone who was learning a lot about the buying process it was nice to have support and patience from Nicky. Overall our experience with Nicky was great.
We asked for obligation free advice before deciding on whether to put house on the market- freely given. Enthusiastic yet realistic Good recommendations Listened well to what we wanted and why Delivered an unconditional sale in less than 2weeks Highly recommended
Rachel and Vanessa were terrific to work with. From the start we never felt like we were being pressured into anything - decisions were always made on our timeline. Their knowledge of our suburb, and the market broadly, were great assets. With a limited budget to get the house ready for sale, they were able to help us determine where best to spend it to make the most of what we had. During the open home process we were given regular updates on how many people were coming through and what the interest levels were. When it came time to reasses asking price, it always felt like we were being given good advice that empowered us to make good decisions. As first time home sellers, it was new territory for us to be on this side of the table. Having them working with us made it seem much less daunting and felt like we were in good hands. If we ever find ourselves selling again in the future, I wouldnt hesitate at all to call Rachel and Vanessa.
Rachel was great to deal with. Very responsive and I'm sure she is pleased to have reached the end goal with us and our home. If I sell again we will definitely be back. Thanks for helping me stay sane also Rachel. Oh do you help with the packing up and moving stage too lol.
