Rebecca is the best agents I have had the pleasure of working with in Christchurch. Their in-depth knowledge of investment properties, cap rates and what is happening the market is unparalleled in the City. Often with agents you feel like there is a hidden agenda this is not the case with Rebecca she is open, realistic and transparent. I feel like these are qualities that are hard to find in an agent. I would recommend Rebecca anyone looking to purchase their home or an investment property. I look forward to working with them again in the future.
