From the very first meet we were comfortable with Anna, her friendly approach and knowledge of the market made it an easy decision to go with her for the sale of our home. Anna and her assistant Bel were always available throughout the sale process and ensured we were comfortable with how it was going. Nothing was too much trouble, and we would be more than happy to recommend this fantastic duo to anyone wanting to buy or sell their property.

Working with Anna Straathof has been an absolute delight — she truly is the Betty White of Real Estate in Taranaki! Warm, witty, and full of experience, Anna makes the entire buying and selling process feel easy and even enjoyable. She brings both professionalism and heart to the table, making sure every detail is handled with care, and every client feels supported. Her PA, Belinda Schumacher, is equally fantastic — efficient, approachable, and always one step ahead. Together, Anna and Belinda are a dream team who go above and beyond to deliver not only great results but also a positive, stress-free experience. If you want expertise with a personal touch (and a smile), you can’t go wrong with Anna and Belinda.

Outstanding service, communication from Anna and her team. There is a reason its worth going with the best - they get the job done and meet the targets with a professionalism which is second to none. Cannot recommend, review or rate Anna highly enough. From start to finish, she delivered exceptionally.

Friends had used Anna previously and they recommended her integrity and knowledge of the market. Anna understood the emotional attachment to our family home. We trusted Anna's experience and followed her advice on the best way to market the property. With regular updates from Anna and Belinda, all 3 of us knew what was happening. Thank you Anna and Belinda for making this difficult task of selling the family home as smooth as could be expected.

I had researched agents and I chose Anna as the most likely to achieve my desired result in my required time frame, and she exceeded my expectations. She managed to obtain multiple offers on my unique property in what I think was a difficult market, resulting in a satisfactory unconditional offer. I am very pleased with the outcome thanks to the excellent agent and her team.

Anna was really easy to deal with and provided some helpful insights. Fast communication ensured the ball kept rolling towards a successful purchase

Anna was lovely to deal with and made everything easy to understand. The process was seamless. We would recommend her to anyone needing a Real Estate Agent.

Anna was fabulous to deal with on the sale of our property earlier this year. While I have known for Anna sometime what blows me away about her is her professionalism and commitment to her clients.

She's made the process feel easy and has communicated very well throughout the process. I'll be giving Anna a call the next time I'm looking for an agent.

We recently purchased a home with Anna as the agent. She was relaxed and friendly, a clear and concise communicator and always got back to us quickly. Were we to sell a property we would definitely engage Anna.

Her communication is amazing, keeping in touch every step of the way. Anna and her team are so professional, and the sales result really reflects that. Would work with Anna again in a heartbeat!

There is a reason why Anna is a top rated agent…we found her to be sincere in all of her comments, positive in feedback, thorough and professional, following through in all that she undertook to do, instilling confidence in us that our interests were respected. Kudos also to PA Belinda.

We sold our house through Anna at Bayleys and found her very helpful. She kept us well informed and nothing was too much trouble.
