In the fast-paced world of commercial real estate, success demands a rare blend of skills — deep local knowledge, sharp instincts, strong analytical ability, and outstanding negotiation. Mike Hook brings all of these, and more. Armed with a Bachelor of Commerce (Valuation and Property Management), Mike’s analytical expertise gives his clients a unique edge. His ability to interpret data and identify hidden value ensures opportunities are uncovered that others might miss. Before entering real estate, Mike spent over six years with the New Zealand Police, serving primarily in South Auckland. That experience honed his ability to connect with people from all walks of life and negotiate effectively in complex situations — skills that now serve his clients exceptionally well. Mike’s philosophy centres on personal service and meaningful results. He takes the time to understand each client’s goals, providing tailored advice and focused attention throughout every stage of the process. By limiting the number of listings he manages, Mike ensures every client receives his full commitment — resulting in stronger relationships, smoother transactions, and better outcomes. Having lived in the Franklin area for close to 40 years, Mike has an exceptional understanding of the region and its potential for growth, particularly across the commercial, retail, office, and industrial sectors. Outside of work, you’ll often find Mike coaching and playing hockey for Waiau Pa Hockey Club, where his leadership and team-first approach mirror the qualities he brings to his professional life.
