Rental Testimonials
Recently needing to find accommodation in the coast I was terrified that I wouldn’t find a home.
From the first contact with Narelle I felt like I might have a chance of securing a rental property, she was so professional but always very down to earth and moved a few mountains to actually find me a property to inspect.

Great work and thank you Katherine and Laylah for your extremely efficient and beautiful care and respect for my property (and my Dad 😉). I would definitely recommend you and use again if we lease the property out.
