Rory has really gone above
and beyond to help us, twice.
He is kind, quick to respond
and made the whole process
easy. I lost my job and had
to re apply for a second visa
when I got a new job, I could
only think of Rory to help with
my mess. I highly recommend
him. Professional, effective and
affordable.

The decision to move to NZ was daunting, but Rory was by far the most accomodating and professional consultant that my husband and I had come across. His services made the process feel a lot more ‘do-able’ and helped us to stay focused on the end goal. In the process, Rory has shown to be far more than just a supplier, but a partner and friend, helping us to achieve a future that sometimes felt like an inacessible dream.
