Shannon Mackey

Russ Adams has looked after our property impeccably in these last three years. Communication is prompt and regular, issues are addressed immediately and the selection of tenants has been superb. My only recommendation is to keep doing what your team is doing.

Fiona

I can not speak highly enough of the service offered by the Raglan Rentals team. They are always extremely prompt with answering any questions, the inspection reports were comprehensive and any maintenance needed on the house was efficiently communicated with a range of quotes from which to expedite remedial repairs. Their knowledge of the rental law and regulations gave me confidence that we were meeting all requirements and I knew the property was in good hands. They went above and beyond to ensure things ran smoothly for us as homeowners including sourcing lightbulbs that were not locally available and hanging curtains. I can not recommend the team highly enough and if we are in the situation again to place our house on the rental market we will certainly be back to place in their professional care.

Rhys Donaldson

I would like to thank the team at Ray White Raglan and in particular Russ Adams for the management of my rental property at Raglan. Russ is an absolute professional. He immediately found and vetted quality long term tenants and had my place rented within 2 weeks of it being available. During the tenancy, I was regularly updated on any issues in a prompt manner and remedial items were addressed quickly with minimal input required from me. Rent was paid on time and inspections were conducted on a regular basis with an associated report and photo evidence for my records. Russ always makes himself available either by phone or email and promptly responds to any queries. If you have a rental property in Raglan, you should have it with Russ and his team at Ray White Raglan.

Te Aro Moxon & Rachael Bright

We've been using Ray White as our property manager since January 2019. We were impressed with Russ' genuine attitude and professionalism. He cares about maintaining our house to a high standard, both to protect our asset and for the benefit of our tenants. Russ made finding tenants a very smooth and simple process and has helped us stay ahead of changing rental property legislation. We are living overseas, and are so happy to have Ray White on the ground in Raglan, checking on our property and facilitating upkeep as needed. I can highly recommend Ray White as a property manager.

James Shelley and Dinah Arndt

We have rented properties in Australia, the UK and New Zealand over many, many years and can safely say that our experience with Russ & the team at Ray White, Raglan was by far the single best rental experience we have ever had. The team there are friendly, relatable and responsive. They take a genuine interest in making sure you are comfortable and happy. As a result, we settled in Raglan (as Australians) surprisingly quickly and felt at home in no time. We would highly recommend!

Helen Wylie

Ray White managed my rental property for a four-month period while I was travelling overseas. From the very first contact with Russ everything was handled professionally and expertly. There were no problems and any issue that did arise was dealt with quickly an effectively. The communication was excellent, the regular Inspections were very detailed and the photos included gave me complete peace of mind while I was travelling. Russ certainly went over and above the cause of duty to ensure I could relax and enjoy myself by attending to everything needed. The workman he utilised did a professional job and costs were very realistic. I really appreciated the seamless and painless experience renting my “precious new house” was. When I returned it was in perfect condition and Russ was around to welcome me back to this beautiful piece of Paradise. I would unequivocally recommend them as your next Property Manager. If you want the BEST the team at Ray White Rentals.

I​ ​Have​ ​used​ ​Ray​ ​White​ ​Property​ ​Management​ ​since​ ​owning​ ​my​ ​property.​ ​They​ ​have​ ​always​ ​performed​ ​very professionally​ ​and​ ​very​ ​efficiently.​ ​Routine​ ​inspections​ ​are​ ​always​ ​done​ ​on​ ​time​ ​and​ ​then​ ​emailed​ ​to​ ​you including​ ​photos​ ​and​ ​descriptions​ ​of​ ​the​ ​condition​ ​every​ ​room​ ​is​ ​in.​ ​Whenever​ ​something​ ​has​ ​come​ ​up​ ​they have​ ​contacted​ ​me​ ​immediately​ ​to​ ​find​ ​a​ ​remedy​ ​to​ ​whatever​ ​situation​ ​has​ ​arisen​ ​whether​ ​it​ ​be​ ​something faulty,​ ​or​ ​general​ ​maintenance​ ​required​ ​etc.​ ​If​ ​i​ ​have​ ​not​ ​been​ ​able​ ​to​ ​fix​ ​the​ ​situation​ ​myself​ ​(as​ ​I​ ​live​ ​in another​ ​town)​ ​then​ ​they​ ​have​ ​found​ ​me​ ​numerous​ ​quotes​ ​to​ ​fix​ ​the​ ​job​ ​(very​ ​appreciated).​ ​I​ ​would​ ​recommend this​ ​Team​ ​to​ ​anyone.Great​ ​Service.

Darren​ ​Kirkland - Property Owner

We​ ​used​ ​Ray​ ​White​ ​Rentals​ ​in​ ​Raglan​ ​over​ ​a​ ​period​ ​of​ ​two​ ​years.​ ​We​ ​had​ ​never​ ​owned​ ​a​ ​rental​ ​before​ ​so​ ​were reluctant​ ​to​ ​do​ ​it​ ​ourselves. Over​ ​this​ ​time​ ​we​ ​found​ ​Russ​ ​and​ ​his​ ​team​ ​great​ ​to​ ​deal​ ​with,​ ​they​ ​kept​ ​us​ ​in​ ​the​ ​loop​ ​with​ ​everything​ ​that​ ​was​ ​going on​ ​in​ ​the​ ​house. As​ ​we​ ​lived​ ​3​ ​hours​ ​away​ ​we​ ​couldn’t​ ​deal​ ​with​ ​the​ ​problems​ ​ourselves,​ ​if​ ​anything​ ​ever​ ​popped​ ​up​ ​Russ​ ​was​ ​straight onto​ ​it. We​ ​had​ ​very​ ​clear​ ​and​ ​detailed​ ​rental​ ​reports​ ​with​ ​photos​ ​attached​ ​which​ ​we​ ​found​ ​great. I​ ​wouldn’t​ ​hesitate​ ​to​ ​use​ ​Ray​ ​White​ ​rentals​ ​in​ ​raglan​ ​again​ ​if​ ​we​ ​get​ ​another​ ​rental.​ ​I​ ​would​ ​highly​ ​recommend anyone​ ​considering​ ​renting​ ​a​ ​property​ ​to​ ​give​ ​Russ​ ​and​ ​his​ ​team​ ​a​ ​call.

Rebekah​ ​Paddy - Property Owner

We​ ​bought​ ​our​ ​houses​ ​in​ ​Raglan​ ​3​ ​years​ ​ago.​ ​We​ ​did​ ​this​ ​through​ ​Blair​ ​at​ ​Ray​ ​Whites​ ​and​ ​the​ ​process​ ​for​ ​us​ ​first time​ ​buyers​ ​was​ ​as​ ​stress-free​ ​as​ ​it​ ​could​ ​be.​ ​We​ ​got​ ​more​ ​support​ ​than​ ​I​ ​would​ ​imagine​ ​most​ ​buyers​ ​get​ ​and​ ​we were​ ​guided​ ​step​ ​by​ ​step​ ​through​ ​the​ ​whole​ ​process. Unfortunately,​ ​we​ ​can’t​ ​live​ ​in​ ​Raglan​ ​at​ ​the​ ​moment,​ ​so​ ​have​ ​to​ ​rent​ ​out​ ​our​ ​property​ ​(which​ ​has​ ​two​ ​houses​ ​on​ ​it). We​ ​decided​ ​to​ ​have​ ​RW​ ​manage​ ​the​ ​property​ ​as​ ​alarm​ ​bells​ ​rang​ ​with​ ​distant​ ​land-lording​ ​and​ ​us​ ​being​ ​busy​ ​and​ ​not always​ ​available. Before​ ​renting​ ​out​ ​we​ ​needed​ ​to​ ​renovate​ ​areas​ ​of​ ​one​ ​of​ ​the​ ​houses​ ​and​ ​Russ-​ ​(Rental​ ​Manager​ ​from​ ​RW),​ ​was on-hand​ ​to​ ​watch​ ​over​ ​this​ ​for​ ​us​ ​and​ ​appoint​ ​and​ ​communicate​ ​with​ ​the​ ​various​ ​tradies​ ​until​ ​the​ ​job​ ​was​ ​done. Having​ ​Russ​ ​to​ ​choose​ ​the​ ​right​ ​tenants​ ​(which​ ​he​ ​has​ ​now​ ​done​ ​for​ ​us​ ​a​ ​few​ ​times)​ ​has​ ​been​ ​wonderful,​ ​he​ ​is​ ​great at​ ​finding​ ​the​ ​perfect​ ​matches​ ​each​ ​time.​ ​So​ ​that​ ​it​ ​is​ ​the​ ​right​ ​place​ ​for​ ​our​ ​tenants​ ​and​ ​the​ ​tenants​ ​are​ ​the​ ​right people​ ​for​ ​us.​ ​Everyone​ ​is​ ​happy! Communication​ ​from​ ​the​ ​team​ ​is​ ​second-to-​ ​none,​ ​texts​ ​and​ ​email​ ​are​ ​always​ ​detailed​ ​and​ ​helpful​ ​and​ ​no​ ​question from​ ​us​ ​is​ ​considered​ ​a​ ​silly​ ​one. Quotes​ ​are​ ​supplied​ ​for​ ​various​ ​maintenance​ ​and​ ​Russ​ ​knows​ ​all​ ​the​ ​tradies​ ​in​ ​the​ ​area​ ​so​ ​we​ ​get​ ​the​ ​job​ ​done​ ​fast and​ ​it​ ​is​ ​always​ ​done​ ​well​ ​at​ ​good​ ​prices. Inspections​ ​of​ ​the​ ​property​ ​are​ ​done​ ​regularly,​ ​and​ ​the​ ​reports​ ​are​ ​amazingly​ ​detailed​ ​with​ ​huge​ ​amounts​ ​of​ ​photos and​ ​suggestions​ ​of​ ​areas​ ​that​ ​need​ ​up​ ​keeping​ ​so​ ​that​ ​the​ ​property​ ​is​ ​well​ ​maintained.​ ​Russ,​ ​Lynley​ ​and​ ​Angela​ ​are always​ ​mindful​ ​of​ ​the​ ​fine​ ​balance​ ​needed​ ​to​ ​keep​ ​both​ ​tenant​ ​and​ ​landlord​ ​happy. Often​ ​little​ ​jobs​ ​that​ ​are​ ​needed​ ​have​ ​been​ ​done​ ​by​ ​Russ​ ​with​ ​a​ ​‘can​ ​do’​ ​attitude.​ ​He​ ​has​ ​been​ ​such​ ​a​ ​support​ ​and help​ ​in​ ​this​ ​way. Many​ ​people​ ​were​ ​quick​ ​to​ ​warn​ ​us​ ​off​ ​being​ ​distant​ ​landlords,​ ​but​ ​our​ ​experience​ ​has​ ​been​ ​nothing​ ​short​ ​of amazing.​ ​We​ ​still​ ​feel​ ​we​ ​are​ ​making​ ​decisions​ ​regards​ ​our​ ​property​ ​(and​ ​have​ ​been​ ​allowed​ ​to​ ​do​ ​regular​ ​gardening and​ ​little​ ​bits​ ​of​ ​maintenance​ ​whenever​ ​we​ ​are​ ​down),​ ​but​ ​the​ ​hard​ ​bit​ ​of​ ​choosing​ ​the​ ​tenant,​ ​communicating​ ​with them​ ​and​ ​maintaining​ ​the​ ​property​ ​has​ ​been​ ​taken​ ​care​ ​of​ ​making​ ​our​ ​experience​ ​a​ ​very​ ​happy​ ​one. The​ ​team​ ​at​ ​RW​ ​are​ ​always​ ​welcoming​ ​and​ ​friendly​ ​and​ ​we​ ​look​ ​forward​ ​to​ ​seeing​ ​them​ ​when​ ​we​ ​get​ ​to​ ​Raglan​ ​each time.​ ​I​ ​could​ ​not​ ​recommend​ ​the​ ​Rental​ ​management​ ​team​ ​more​ ​highly,​ ​they​ ​have​ ​been,​ ​and​ ​continue​ ​to​ ​be,​ ​brilliant.

Jasper​ ​Boer - Property Owner

Russ​ ​and​ ​the​ ​team​ ​at​ ​Ray​ ​White​ ​Raglan​ ​have​ ​been​ ​fantastic​ ​at​ ​looking​ ​after​ ​our​ ​two​ ​rental​ ​properties. They​ ​are​ ​always​ ​quick​ ​to​ ​respond​ ​and​ ​well​ ​on​ ​top​ ​of​ ​any​ ​maintenance​ ​and​ ​inspection​ ​requirements. Russ​ ​has​ ​a​ ​great​ ​network​ ​of​ ​local​ ​professionals​ ​and​ ​has​ ​often​ ​taken​ ​the​ ​initiative​ ​in​ ​organising​ ​repairs​ ​and providing​ ​us​ ​with​ ​quotes​ ​before​ ​going​ ​ahead. The​ ​search​ ​processes​ ​have​ ​been​ ​quick​ ​and​ ​stress​ ​free.​ ​They've​ ​managed​ ​to​ ​find​ ​wonderful​ ​tenants​ ​for​ ​us,​ ​who perfectly​ ​suited​ ​our​ ​requirements. Payments​ ​have​ ​always​ ​been​ ​on​ ​time​ ​and​ ​without​ ​any​ ​issues.​ ​The​ ​team​ ​keeps​ ​track​ ​of​ ​all​ ​income​ ​and​ ​expenses and​ ​were​ ​easily​ ​approachable​ ​whenever​ ​we​ ​had​ ​questions. We​ ​highly​ ​recommend​ ​Russ​ ​if​ ​you're​ ​looking​ ​for​ ​a​ ​professional​ ​and​ ​transparent​ ​property​ ​manager!

Therese​ ​Boyle - Property Owner

We​ ​dealt​ ​with​ ​Russ​ ​Adams​ ​for​ ​2​ ​years​ ​(2015-2017)​ ​while​ ​he​ ​managed​ ​our​ ​property​ ​for​ ​us. He​ ​did​ ​a​ ​fantastic​ ​job​ ​of​ ​finding​ ​us​ ​a​ ​trustworthy​ ​tenant​ ​for​ ​that​ ​whole​ ​period.​ ​If​ ​he​ ​noticed​ ​anything​ ​during​ ​his inspections​ ​he​ ​dealt​ ​with​ ​it​ ​with​ ​the​ ​tenant​ ​and​ ​let​ ​us​ ​know.​ ​​He​ ​was​ ​proactive​ ​in​ ​informing​ ​us​ ​regarding regulations​ ​for​ ​smoke​ ​alarms,​ ​insulation​ ​etc.​ ​He​ ​acted​ ​quickly​ ​when​ ​things​ ​needed​ ​repaired​ ​e.g.​ ​the​ ​hot​ ​water cylinder​ ​leaked.​ ​The​ ​financial​ ​statements​ ​were​ ​produced​ ​promptly​ ​and​ ​accurately. Russ​ ​was​ ​always​ ​responsive​ ​to​ ​calls​ ​we​ ​put​ ​into​ ​him. Communication​ ​was​ ​clear​ ​and​ ​straightforward. Additionally,​ ​when​ ​we​ ​were​ ​moving​ ​here​ ​to​ ​live​ ​he​ ​was​ ​very​ ​generous​ ​with​ ​his​ ​time​ ​in​ ​helping​ ​me​ ​find​ ​local, reliable​ ​tradespeople​ ​to​ ​do​ ​some​ ​of​ ​the​ ​jobs​ ​we​ ​wanted​ ​done. We​ ​have​ ​no​ ​hesitation​ ​in​ ​recommending​ ​the​ ​services​ ​of​ ​Ray​ ​White​ ​Rentals

I employed ​Russ​ ​of​ ​Ray​ ​White​ ​Raglan​ ​a​ ​few​ ​years​ ​ago​ ​to​ ​look​ ​after​ ​our​ ​investment​ ​properties​ ​in​ ​Raglan. From day​ ​one​ ​I​ ​was​ ​impressed​ ​with​ ​his​ ​professionalism,​ ​his​ ​energy​ ​and​ ​his​ ​knowledge​ ​of​ ​the​ ​market. Since​ ​then​ ​I have​ ​only​ ​been​ ​more​ ​impressed​ ​with​ ​his​ ​commitment​ ​to​ ​find​ ​quality​ ​tenants​,​ ​to​ ​follow​ ​through​ ​with​ ​updates and​ ​feedback.​ ​He​ ​has​ ​gone​ ​far​ ​and​ ​beyond​ ​by​ ​organising​ ​tradesmen​​,​ ​quotes​ ​and​ ​liaising​ ​with​ ​them,​ ​us​ ​and the​ ​tenants​ ​. I​ ​can​ ​assure​ ​you​ ​Russ​ ​will​ ​look​ ​after​ ​your​ ​property​ ​as​ ​well​ ​as​ ​his​ ​own.

Jackson Noble - Property Owner

Russ​ ​at​ ​Ray​ ​White​ ​Rentals​ ​has​ ​been​ ​a​ ​pleasure​ ​to​ ​deal​ ​with.​ ​All​ ​potential​ ​tenants​ ​have​ ​been​ ​comprehensively screened.​ ​Properties​ ​are​ ​regularly​ ​inspected,​ ​with​ ​a​ ​full​ ​report​ ​and​ ​pictures​ ​provided.​ ​If​ ​any​ ​issues​ ​do​ ​arise,​ ​we are​ ​notified​ ​quickly,​ ​and​ ​usually​ ​with​ ​a​ ​recommended​ ​solution.

Hereby I’d​ ​like​ ​to​ ​offer​ ​a​ ​general​ ​reference​ ​for​ ​Ray​ ​White​ ​Property​ ​Management​ ​in​ ​Raglan,​ ​under the management​ ​of​ ​Russ​ ​Adams. I’ve​ ​rented​ ​several​ ​properties​ ​through​ ​Ray​ ​White​ ​over​ ​the​ ​past​ ​6+​ ​years,​ ​and​ ​can​ ​truly​ ​say​ ​I​ ​have always​ ​been​ ​very​ ​happy​ ​with​ ​their​ ​service.​ ​They​ ​have​ ​been​ ​extremely​ ​helpful​ ​with​ ​finding​ ​pproperties for ​me​ ​when​ ​needed,​ ​and​ ​whilst​ ​I​ ​was​ ​renting​ ​they​ ​have​ ​always​ ​been​ ​courteous​ ​and​ ​polite​ ​with regular​ ​and​ ​final​ ​inspections,​ ​whilst​ ​offering​ ​clear​ ​instructions​ ​to​ ​what​ ​was​ ​expected​ ​from​ ​me.​ ​In case​ ​of​ ​any​ ​issues​ ​with​ ​properties​ ​they​ ​would​ ​take​ ​action​ ​immediately,​ ​and​ ​have​ ​always​ ​been​ ​very prompt​ ​in​ ​their​ ​communications​ ​and​ ​with​ ​responding​ ​to​ ​any​ ​enquiry.
