EXCELLENT Based on 24 reviews Posted on Janine Morice26. March, 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had an extensive internal renovation project completed by Paola and the Realzar team in 2024. The experience was quite seamless, even when we hit the inevitable building challenges, Paola and the team were able to quickly and effectively manage any situation that arose. Their communication was spot on through the process, and we were supported by Realzar to live in the renovation as it happened (they worked around us and our needs). Realzar were even accommodating of us sourcing our own products, such as the timber vanities made by my son (Matt from Barku.com.au). I would highly recommend Realzar to anyone wanting to do a makeover of their home. The result was beautiful and we couldn't be happier.Posted on Pat Wilson18.

They transformed our home from an old/dated 1970s property into a modern masterpiece. Their communication through the project was outstanding, with weekly updates and photos. If you’re looking to renovate and want a company to manage it from start to finish, Paola and the team at Realzar should be your first call!Posted on Paul John29. October, 2024Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We would definitely recommend RealZar. Paola was professional, knowledgeable and managed the project in a well and timely manner. Claire, the interior designer, was excellent with her overall ideas, but also took into consideration our suggestions. The tradespeople were punctual and respectful of our home and completed the work to a high standard- in that Paola came every couple of days to make sure everything was perfect and on task. From the initial meeting, the mood boards, the payments and the rigorous schedule the process went smoothly, and we are delighted with the improvement that have been made. Overall, the experience was excellent, and we are grateful for Paola's dedication and good humor.Posted on Cathy Christopher29. May, 2024Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We worked with Paola and her team to clean up a large house on an acre in preparation for sale. The house, a deceased estate, had had no loving for a few decades. It was filled with clutter and needed a lot work to get it ready for sale. Finding Paola through a real estate friend turned out to be a godsend. She did all the planning, organised all the quotes and tradespeople and all payments went through her. Paola is very easy to work with. She provided a very detailed plan to begin with, a mood board with all the design choices and kept us apprised every step of the way. She sourced appliances, light fittings and contacts for every job. She also planned and sourced all the furniture & fittings to stage the house. It was amazing, a complete overhaul. We went from being very stressed and not knowing where to start to very relieved at handing over the reins to someone else who did a great job. I highly recommend Realzar and have already engaged them for another project.Posted on Kiara Beinart7. April, 2024Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had a great experience working with the Realzar team on my interior design project. Their creative ideas and vision transformed my small space into something special. I am loving living in my new home; the layout is so functional and it looks amazing. Claire and Paola's dedication to enhancing every detail ensured a result that exceeded my expectations and increased the value of my home.Posted on James Bakis20.

We had very good communication between both sides and the interior design concepts were brilliant. We felt very comfortable with Realzar throughout our whole renovation progress.Posted on R DC19. December, 2023Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Paola and her team successfully transformed our tired 3 bedroom 1 bathroom property into a modern 4 bedroom 2 bathroom property. We were very happy with their attention to detail and how they co-ordinated the trades. They completed the project well within the timeframe allocated. We have increased our rent by 50% which is a great result.Posted on Shakti Sharma4. August, 2023Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Poala and her team went above and beyond when it came to transforming our property in melbourne. She was kind and courteous throughout the whole process and their transformation really helped us when it came to the sale of the property and making it look nice. Would recommend anyone local to go to her and her team in the futurePosted on R T24. July, 2023Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
