We had a great experience with Sally at Irelands throughout our tenancy. She was friendly, professional and helpful whenever we needed assistance. Communication was smooth and we really appreciated her support and understanding during our time at the property. Thank you, Sally, for making our tenancy a pleasant experience. We would happily recommend Sally and Irelands to others looking for a reliable and professional property management team.

Dear Melissa, I want to take a moment to recognize the excellent property management service you, Shiek, and the rest of the team at Irelands have provided for the home we're currently renting in Ashburton. What stands out most is your consistency on all the issues and concerns with the house are always addressed promptly, without us having to follow up repeatedly. You are also very responsive on every inquiry we've sent has been answered in a timely manner, which makes a real difference as tenants. On top of that, you've been a great liaison between us and the property owner, keeping communication clear and concise on both ends. We really appreciate the professionalism and care you and your team bring to managing this property, and we're grateful to have you handling it. Thank you, Melissa.

We had a wonderful experience with Irelands for our rental journey. Mikaela was our property manager and was always efficient, warm and welcoming. If there was ever a maintenance issue it was resolved quickly and always easy communication with the management. We regret having to move but definitely a great agency to rent from.

I have been with Irelands for 6 years with our rental property. A cple of issues were sorted straight away. Was charged with something I believe was unfair. Lisa yesterday saw my issue emailed me instantly. Within one day charge was waived and sorted.Will stay with Irelands long term because of this well done Paul and Grace

I have been a tenant with Ireland’s for a year and during this period I have had no problems. Whenever I have contacted my wonderful friendly Property Manager Felicity she has dealt with the matter swiftly and very professionally. I highly recommend renting from her. Michael Baker.

Honest and reliable he goes the extra mile to get the job done. As a vendor, I have nothing but praise for our agent Steve. Most importantly, he got us a good price in a very short time. My partner and I liked his old school style, warm and friendly with plenty of time to hear our views and modify the marketing or any other issue to match our thoughts. On several occasions he would say "you know I will look after your place don't you" and he certainly did after we had vacated and right up to settlement. This was a big point of difference with his opposition and was greatly appreciated. My partner enjoyed being involved as an equal, another of Steve's strengths. So I have no hesitation in recommending Steve as your agent and find myself nodding agreement when reading all the other glowing reviews. Thank you Steve.

I’ve always had a great experience with Irelands as a tenant. I’ve been with Irelands for about 8 years across 2 properties and I will note that my current property manager Sally is fantastic! Very approachable, always smiling and on the ball when it comes to resolving any issues. Thanks team for making things easy and hassle free.

Easy to book a viewing, even on the same day. Viewed a lovely place. Application process was easy and the whole process went pretty smooth. We've been in our new home for a month now. We have no complaints, our neighbors are friendly and easy to get along with. Thanks for making the whole house hunting and application so quick and easy.

We've had a fantastic experience working with Irelands while carrying out multiple renovations & upgrades on our rental property in Salisbury Street. From the beginning, they've been organised, proactive and across every aspect of the process, nothing felt like it was too much trouble, and kept the progress moving, keeping us informed along the way. What could have been a stressful time turned into a postive experience and we wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable and professional property management team.

We had a really great experience with this property management team. After having a difficult time with other agencies who required us to attend viewings, even after we explained that we were moving from Gore to Christchurch with a 2-year-old child, they were understanding and considerate of our situation. We truly appreciate that they gave us the opportunity to secure a rental, after checking our rental history and references which made a huge difference for our family during a stressful move. Mikaela was especially wonderful to deal with. Even though we moved in on a Sunday, she came into the office to make sure we received the keys. She also provided helpful leaflets and the property condition report, making the whole process smooth and organized. She has been very pleasant, approachable, and quick to respond whenever we need assistance. Her support has made settling into our new home much easier. Highly recommend their service!

Always willing to help. Shiek @ Irelands was great to deal with, always able to help with questions and point us in the right direction. His knowledge of property and his clear communication was so helpful, he helped make the process of buying our first home feel very straightforward and not complicated. Thank you Shiek!

I've had the displeasure of renting from now three property management companies in Christchurch and I can confidently say Irelands is the only one I would willingly rent from again. Reasons: they never tried to squeeze me. After our lease term ended, we went to a month-to-month agreement. No pressure to sign on to a long term thing, no attempt to raise our rents. They did inspections regularly, but if they couldn't get in for one reason or another, they never made a big deal of it. I'm from the US where these regular apartment inspections are unheard of and I was appalled arriving to New Zealand and experiencing these regular incursions into my personal living spaces. But Irelands appears like they aren't that big on drilling down into your living space anymore than you are interested in opening up your living spaces to your property manager. They were so chill, that after leaving and experiencing all the nonsense other property managers put you through, I want to rent from Irelands again 😭.

I stayed in a student flat in Riccarton during 2025. The property manager was Sally. They were very polite and quick to respond ti email queries. Good communication made flat viewings and inspections go smoothly.

Ireland’s Property Management has shown a shocking lack of empathy, common sense, and respect for the very residents who live in the areas they manage. Despite having plenty of reserved car parks available to them, their staff regularly choose to park on a public street with extremely limited parking in the Christchurch CBD, taking spaces that local residents rely on. This is not a one-off incident, but a repeated and conscious choice. For a property management company operating in a city-centre location, this behaviour speaks volumes. It demonstrates a complete disregard for the surrounding community and raises serious questions about how tenants and residents are treated more broadly. If something as basic as considerate parking is beyond them, it’s hard to trust them with anything more important. Based on this experience alone, I would not recommend doing business with this company. Professionalism isn’t just about contracts and paperwork — it’s about basic respect for others, and that is clearly lacking here.

We got given our 90 day notice at the place we in now I looked on trademe and it had a place to rent near my brother's place, I rang Krystal the property manager and she made a viewing . Saw the house was perfect for my family , I applied the process was so easy, and fast and a day or 2 after got a ph call from her saying we got the house. The amount of stress that has lifted off my shoulders , especially in these times as it's very hard to find a house in Christchurch. So thank you from my daughter and partner we won't be homeless and now don't have to worry about moving .

Marked lack of respect for human decency and respect; showed total indifference and non- respect to their tenants – 'just renters, what do you know?' They do not care about their tenants, health or safety and they will find ways to pay extra money. They are threatening for the future reference.

I have met many people in a professional context, however, there are very few who truly leave a positive impact behind. Sally from Irelands is one such person, she is not just passionate about the properties she looks after but will go out of her way to assist the tenants needs as well. As a first time tenant in Christchurch, I never had to run around for any issues relating to the property, Sally always lended a helping hand. I highly recommend Sally for your rental property needs. Thank you Sally for everything you have done for me.

HAPPY CUSTOMER 🙂 . Erin was great! Right from the get go she made this a really seamless and enjoyable experience. She was always contactable and would respond super fast. She was only as involved as I wanted her to be (i.e not overbearing and pushy) which I loved. Her comms were great and she was really easy to get on with. I would highly reccommend Erin. Thank you again Erin for all your help throughout this journey 🙂

The worst PMs I've ever had. I've never been treated so poorly by a company, ever. Lisa Quist is quite happy to ignore tenants request for proof of payment by just not answering. Absolute liers who bully and dont look after their tenants. No maintenance done in 15 months I.e. heatpump, gutters etc. If you're a tenant do yourself a favor and look for somewhere else.

Irelands have been absolutely incredible to work with to get our house on the market! Working closely with Fauzan, the process has been seamless and that is predominantly due to his outstanding communication and his knowledge. We completely trusted him to find the right tenant and he has not disappointed. If you are looking for a kind, respectful, mannerly agent who doesn’t miss a beat, then I would highly recommend working with Fauzan – he is a weapon! Thanks Irelands, I feel so much peace leaving our property in your care, Tracy

My daughter and her friend rented a property from this company for 2.5 years. Never missed a payment, kept a beautiful home and was all organised with the paperwork. I helper her move out and clean, the place was beautiful. The rental manager was very unhelpful and difficult throughout the entire process and fabricated a ridiculous reason to get a cleaner at the end of the tenancy. They are taking this from the bond. Very unfair and dishonest, would not recommend as an agency. No wonder landlords get a bed rapnwith this sort of unscrupulous treatment of hard working young people. Shame.

Our time spent in a house managed by Irelands was awesome. Every person we dealt with was very professional. Whenever any problems arose with the property, they were dealt with extremely quickly. Irelands is a fantastic property management company and it was a pleasure dealing with them for the 8 years we had them looking after the property we lived in. I would have no hesitation going through Irelands if I ever have to rent again.

Secured a wonderful apartment in 2023 thanks to the diligence of their property managers. The administration involved and the flat inspections, co-ordination of maintenance and ending the lease early were all very easy, quick and helpful. No stress or angst was felt communicating with the team at Irelands and I had no idea renting with a property management organisation could be this positive. Special mention to Nicola, thank you very much for all your help! Irelands will be my first port of call for locating a new rental property in Christchurch should the need ever arise for me again. It would be something I would look forward to.

Notice the 5 star reviews are all from property owners, not tenants and the tenants reviews have more likes. That's because Irelands are horrible to tenants. If you're a Tenant looking for a room/property go find it at a different property managers. Save yourself some time, money and stress.

Several years ago we switched to using Irelands to manage our properties, and we quickly realized we should have done it years earlier. We are very happy with the service we receive and the tenants they have found to stay in our houses. They ensure everything is well looked after and quickly respond to any issues.

Irelands helped me out of a really bad renting situation, both mentally and physically. They gave me a chance (being a young male renting alone) and treated me like a human being and respected me. The opportunity they gave me to rent a place through them, helped me more than they probably realised. If i ever had property to rent out or had to rent again. Irelands would definitely be my first option for renting. Thank you Irelands for everything and the chance you gave me

I have always found Irelands very reliable, responsible and systematic. They take care to advise owners of new regulations etc and then work through what is required. Always pleasant to deal with and the regular inspections and reports give me security. I feel my property is safe and in good hands. I would not hesitate to recommend them as a Property Manager.
