I am a fourth generation Katikati boy with vast local knowledge and a passion for the Western Bay. I am fortunate to have grown up in a family of builders spanning generations in the Katikati area, which at times gives me a level of home-grown insight that is second to none. After leaving school, I worked in the transport and agricultural industries before earning an Advanced Trade Certificate in Farm Business Management in 1993. This led to a rewarding career managing and overseeing farms across the Bay of Plenty and Waikato, further deepening my understanding of rural life – including all its advantages and challenges. Moving into real estate felt like a natural progression for me, as it combined my affinity for people with my connection to the land. Specialising in rural and lifestyle sales, I bring a professional approach and practical expertise to help my clients navigate the current property market with confidence. I know that buying or selling property can be a stressful process, especially when it involves family and significant life changes. My goal is to be there 100% for my clients; to make the journey as smooth as possible, offering not only exceptional service but also valuable local knowledge and experience. If you’re looking to buy or sell in the Bay of Plenty, I’m your local expert and would love to help. Get in touch today.
