Clients who have experienced Kareema's approach

Don’t just take my word for it

Overseas Relocation
Our first interaction with Kareema far exceeded our expectations and we have the ultimate confidence that she can get the job done.

Sawtell – Tree + Sea Changers
“Kareema knew Sawtell street by street and steered us away from places that looked good online but weren’t right in real life. As a fully licensed agent, she had access and insight we never would’ve had on our own.”

Nambucca Heads – Retirees Downsizing
“We were overwhelmed and close to settling for the wrong property. Kareema’s local knowledge of Nambucca Heads saved us from that mistake. She understood council quirks, flood zones, and resale — things only a licensed local agent would flag.”

Bellingen – Families Relocating
“Kareema found us a home in Bellingen that never even hit the main portals. Her connections and licensing made all the difference, especially moving a family from interstate. She knows this region inside out.”

Port Macquarie – Holiday Home Investors
“We wanted something that worked as an Airbnb and somewhere we’d actually want to stay. Kareema’s knowledge of Port Macquarie’s short-term rental pockets was invaluable. She thinks like an agent and an investor.”

Urunga – Sea Change Buyers
“After months of dead ends, Kareema spotted an Urunga property we’d overlooked completely. Her understanding of the local market — plus the fact she’s fully licensed — gave us confidence we were making a smart move, not an emotional one.”
