We had an outstanding experience working with Kath Rose as both our buyers agent and property manager. From the very beginning, Kath took the time to really understand our goals and requirements. She shared her deep knowledge of the property market and different locations, which not only expanded our understanding but helped us make confident, informed decisions. Kath presented us with a range of thoughtful options, organised all the viewings, and met us at each one to share her insights. When we found the right property, her negotiation skills were exceptional — she handled everything with professionalism and secured the property for us at a great price. We always felt fully informed and in control of the process. Since the purchase, Kath has also managed the property for us, which has been invaluable. Her legal background, property expertise, and clear communication have saved us an enormous amount of time and effort. She’s incredibly responsive, proactive, and reliable. We can’t recommend Kath highly enough — she made every stage of the process seamless and stress-free.
Rebekah Mark · 3 months agoI cannot speak highly enough of my property manager. From the moment I moved in, she has been nothing short of amazing—always helpful, supportive, and incredibly professional. Any issue or concern is addressed promptly and efficiently, which truly shows how dedicated and skilled she is at her job. Kathryn is understanding, approachable, and genuinely cares about her tenants, which makes renting feel stress-free and supported. Her communication is excellent. Her appreciation and respect never go unnoticed. Without a doubt, she is the absolute best property manager I have ever had in all my years of renting.
Tammy Wells · 4 months agoKath has supported me over the last three years from purchase through to property management. She has an excellent strategy for sourcing the right kind of property in the right location with the ability to maximise return on investment. Kath is extremely responsive - often available out of hours when important things are happening such as changeover of tenants etc. She keeps me up to date and manages completion of jobs at the property. Her team understands the rental market and obligations of both landlord and tenant and provides strong guidance on what's expected of each party. Kath is knowledgeable, reliable, responsive and friendly and I enjoy working with her.
Sarah James · 3 months agoKath is the most dedicated and genuine buyer's agent and property manager you will meet. She loves what she does and it shows in every interaction. We have worked with Kath now for nearly a year, first to find and buy the exact investment property we were looking for, and then in finding a tenant and managing the property in an ongoing capacity. She is also now coordinating the build of a granny flat on the same site for us. If you are looking for someone who cares for the right outcome and will always go the extra mile, look no further. Highly recommended.
Phil Dark · 4 months agoI recently had the pleasure of working with Kathryn, and I can’t recommend her highly enough! With my knowledge of the real estate market, I knew securing an investment-grade apartment in Sydney would require expert help. After speaking with several buyer’s agents, it was clear from my very first conversation with Kathryn that she was the right person for the job. She exudes professionalism and expertise, but what really stood out was how easy it felt to talk to her—it was like chatting with a mate I’d known my whole life. As we got deeper into the search, it became evident how dedicated she was to finding the perfect property for me. Kathryn worked tirelessly, leaving no stone unturned. She was always there to ensure I fully understood the risks and rewards of each property. In fact, her guidance helped me avoid a couple of potential deals that would have turned into major mistakes! Sydney's apartment market is tough, with many buildings having significant issues. Just when I was starting to feel discouraged, Kathryn found a real gem. It hit the market on a Wednesday, she arranged a private viewing the next day, and by Friday, we had it under contract. The open house scheduled for the weekend was cancelled, a huge win for me and a big miss for the sellers! Negotiation is more than just numbers; it’s a strategic process that involves psychology, timing, and subtle leverage points. Kathryn understands this perfectly, using her skills to secure me this incredible apartment. I truly couldn’t have done this without her. If you’re looking for an expert who’s not only highly knowledgeable but also genuinely cares about your success, I highly recommend Kathryn!
