About Lydia Deakin
Born and bred in Wellington, I’ve spent my entire career immersed in the people, properties and communities that make this region such an incredible place to live. My journey began on Lambton Quay, where I spent 10 years working in a leading pharmacy while studying at Victoria University, completing a Bachelor of Arts in Sociology. This early experience taught me the foundations of exceptional service, communication, and care—skills that have shaped my approach to real estate ever since.
I first entered the property world in the 2000s with Leaders Real Estate in Kilbirnie, later becoming a personal assistant to highly respected agent Tony Crammond. After gaining invaluable insight into high-level real estate practice, I trained as a professional real estate photographer, working with agents across the entire Wellington region. This unique skill set has given me a strong eye for presentation, marketing and detail—key strengths I bring to every home I represent.
Alongside this, I launched Royal Property Management in 2009, successfully growing it for over a decade before selling. After a short break, I established Avery Rental Management, which I continue to operate. With over 15 years’ experience managing investment properties across Wellington and Kapiti, I offer clients deep understanding and practical knowledge that adds real value to both buyers and sellers.
In recent years, I made the decision to return to real estate sales so I can support clients across their entire property journey—from purchasing and marketing to long-term investment strategy. Now living on a lifestyle block in Kapiti, I also bring firsthand experience of lifestyle and rural-edge properties, understanding exactly what buyers in this market look for.
As part of Inspire Real Estate, my commitment is simple: to provide honest guidance, clear communication, and a level of service that genuinely supports your goals. Whether you’re selling a cherished famil
