Hayley Dunn manages both my properties, and I honestly couldn’t ask for a better property manager. She is extremely hard working, prompt and super responsive. Her attention to detail is outstanding. She always provides clear and timely responses to my questions. I am extremely pleased with the level of service she has provided so far. She is doing an amazing job. Show reply
Hayley is excellent to deal with. She responds to enquires is a timely manner and is positive and professional. White Rhino is a great fit for me as I live interstate and I’m always kept updated on my property. Thank you. Show reply

Hayden approaches the management of my Unit in a most professional manner and with a total customer service perspective. I feel most confident in his ability to be looking out for my interests. Show reply
I never provide a rating of 5/5 or 10/10. IMO, this indicates perfect and no service, product or anything is perfect. However, I'm more than willing to provide White Rhino Property a rating of 4 stars for their exceptionally reliable and friendly management of my rental property matters. I have had an association with White Rhino for well over five years and am more than willing to continue my association with them. Show reply
I wish to compliment Louise Smith of White Rhino Property on the exceptional service that she has provided for us. Regularly we have asked her advice and always Louise has given practical, knowledgeable and useful information. When tenants have made requests, she has passed them forward and been able to put solutions into action. When we have had… Read more · 1
a change of tenant, Louise has given outstanding and helpful suggestions and organised the professionals necessary to improve our ability to re-lease. We have always been dealt with in a pleasant and timely manner. Thank you Louise for your excellent work.

An honest review: Utterly incompetent and a complete embarrassment to the real estate industry. White Rhino is the most disorganised, careless, and unprofessional agency I’ve ever had the misfortune of dealing with — a clown show masquerading as a business. From day one, it was chaos. Property managers changed more often than the weather, and… Read more
every new one was just as clueless as the last. No one knew what was going on. We had to repeat the same basic information over and over like a broken record just to get anything done — and even then, we were met with blank stares and radio silence.
[Name Removed] is a perfect example of the dysfunction. One email from her said we wouldn’t be charged for a carpet replacement. A few days later? She sent an invoice demanding 30% of the cost. Make up your mind, [Name Removed] — or at least read your own emails before contradicting yourself.
They also tried to charge us for “items left behind” — despite having it in writing that we would collect them, and we did. That message was ignored, and they still pushed for the charge. That’s not just sloppy — that’s dishonest.
And here’s the kicker: they increased our rent twice in one week via two separate emails, tacking on an extra $30 — illegally. We later found out that not a single person at the agency knew this had happened. That’s how disjointed and reckless this place is. No oversight, no checks, no clue. They’re literally breaking tenancy law without even realising it.
This agency isn’t a business — it’s a mess in heels. No professionalism. No accountability. Just a bunch of people more concerned with looking good online than doing their actual jobs. The owners should be ashamed, but judging by how this circus is run, they probably think this is all acceptable.
We’ll be taking this disaster to NCAT — and if you’ve been mistreated too, I strongly suggest you do the same. Don’t let them get away with it.
Avoid White Rhino at all costs. I wouldn’t recommend them to my own worst enemy.
(And now, cue the condescending, accountability-dodging response - we all know is coming.)
A nightmare experience – I cannot stress enough how awful an experience it was having White Rhino attempt to sell our property. We were constantly given poor advice and on one occasion an offer was not even communicated with us. White Rhino are attempting to keep prices inflated to the detriment of buyers AND sellers. We needed our house sold but we were told our house… Read more
could sell at a much higher price than it was worth. Instead it sat on the market costing us money only to be sold at a much later date at a price much less than what we paid for (because the market dropped in the time we wasted with White Rhino). It was never priced accurately and we were told incorrect information throughout the process. We never felt like we were a priority and our agent constantly blamed other factors. Our north facing house was a beautiful house which should have sold within a reasonable time frame (White Rhino had it listed as facing in a different direction. We didn’t realise until our new agent pointed it out it! It certainly explained why there were always so many concerns about the light from potential buyers). We lost an incredible amount of money listing with White Rhino and the stress of the experience affected our family negatively in so many ways. We had to change agents to move our property and this is when we witnessed another unprofessional side to White Rhino. Engaging White Rhino to sell our property is up there as being one of the most disastrous decisions of our lives.
Poor communication and unauthorised expenses – Terrible communication with tenants and landlord. Multiple unauthorised expenses without approval or prior communication. Frequent turnover of staff resulting in confusion and poor management. Significantly higher fees than other agencies.

Hayden Gribbin We are happy with Hayden’s overall management of our property.

is up to date with all relevant new legislation and training in the industry. Im highly impressed that when I've needed landlord support, to navigate the advertising, placement of tenants, lodging of bonds, she has the information at hand and the backing of her business operations for all aspects of property portfolio navigation. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend my property manager and White Rhino Property.

flagged and managed smoothly, with no last-minute surprises. When work is needed on the property, he arranges for it to be carried out quickly and efficiently, and he keeps us clearly informed of costs every step of the way.
His communication is prompt, transparent, and reliable, and it’s clear he genuinely cares about looking after our property as if it were his own. It’s rare to find a property manager who combines this level of foresight, efficiency, and honesty — Hayden ticks every box, and we’re grateful to have him managing our property.

I've had a fantastic experience with White Rhino Property over the years, and I can’t speak highly enough of their professionalism. I’ve rented through them across three different properties, and each time the process has been seamless. A special shoutout to Tammy Brown, who has been my agent throughout. Tammy is incredibly responsive, friendly, and always goes the extra mile to ensure everything runs smoothly. Show reply
Pushy, demanding, and rude – I will never rent a property if the managing real estate agent is White Rhino Real Estate in Queanbeyan/Googong. The agent managing the property was unreasonable, placed undue demands upon my family, and was unrealistic in her expectations. Combined with the failure to repair reported faults our experience with the company was not pleasurable.
Never – My very strong advice is to steer well clear of White Rhino Property Queanbeyan.
Terrible. We will never use agaon – Lease was terminated and we were only told after the date. Released bond without providing us the opportunity to inspect or keeping us informed through the process.
Highly professional property management - I would recommend White Rhino without hesitation – Stacey Nagel has capably and diligently managed my property for over two years, always being highly professional, very responsive to any communications and always thinking and planning ahead, so I didn’t need to. Throw a global pandemic into the mix with border restrictions and added stresses, and Stacey’s exceptional standard of service has been a breath of fresh air!
Not worth one star - get what u pay for – As a property manager they leave A LOT to be desired. Visited an apartment complex they manage at Xmas and the front lawn was knee high - tenants advised last "gardener" who visited (two months ago) only laid waste to the well established shubbery which is now replaced by hyndreds of weeds growing through the stone covered garden beds. Suppose uf u pay peanuts u get monkeys :/
