    The first step is to run your site through a pagespeed test. So I did:

    http://tools.pingdom.com/fpt/#!/UwicF/http://www.rentorsell.co.nz/

    Your page is slow—almost a minute. That’s probably due to the large number of resources you have on that front page—225. That’s a lot.

    Take a look at that waterfall. You have two images loading that are over 500kb in size. That right there accounts for over 1MB of the 3.6MB in resources a browser is required to download to put your front page together.

    Also, you have 7 .bmp images on that front page. You should never use .bmp images on a webpage. Convert them to .jpg or .png.

    You appear to be running a large number of plugins. Try temporarily disabling them all and run a speedtest again. If it is significantly faster, try to weed out some that are not so essential.

    You might also want to check your file permissions. Your uploads folder is completely unprotected, and I can access it completely from the web. Could lead to being hacked, which you might also want to check for.
