About Peter Vink

Peter's wealth of local knowledge and his strong affinity to the community makes him the obvious candidate when considering buying or selling in the Tutukaka region.

Peter's successful real estate journey commenced in 2004, quickly gaining a solid reputation.  First awarded the Company’s Coastal Salesperson of the Year in 2006 Peter has held the title ever since.  In 2016 he attained Overall Salesperson of the Year for Ray White Whangarei and Tutukaka and he continues to grow his business and receive recognition for his dedication to coastal real estate and supreme service year after year.

Having owned property on the Tutukaka coast since 1985, Peter’s most memorable endeavours include establishing the world renowned Schnappa Rock Restaurant and Bar on the Tutukaka Marina in 1992, and being a founding member of the Tutukaka Coast Promotions Inc where he served as president for the first three years, playing a major role in developing Tutukaka as the Diving Capital of New Zealand.  During this time they organised the purchase and dismantling of two large ex-navy ships and saw them successfully scuttled on our coast to create artificial reefs for all to enjoy. Today, he is still a strong supporter of any community initiatives and spends his free time fishing his favourite spots or travelling abroad to relax and recharge with family. 

With a calm energy and personable manner, Peter has a natural ability to relate and connect well with people of all ages, cultures and backgrounds.  He is relaxed and takes everything in his stride throughout negotiations, walking you through the most complex of sale with honesty and heart. Rest assured Peter is authentic and builds strong trusted relationships using a level-headed approach with genuine respect and empathy, which continues well after your move.

Consistently the leading agent on the coast, marketing and selling more world class coastal real estate than any other in Tutukaka, and having been involved with the sale of over 300 properties with a value in excess of $317 Million - he is the Tutukaka real estate specialist.

Testimonials
Have a strong market knowledge in the Ngunguru and Tutukaka area.- F & I Scotland
A final note to say how amazing both Pete and Dina have been through this process. They have been ready, able, willing, and extremely present. With a remote owner, and a plethora of items, and an emotive sale, they have done extremely well. I am super grateful for their support, their compassion, and their understanding and translation of all the complex messages and personalities involved. Thank you. - Anonymous
We really valued Peter's calm, competent and professional approach all through the sale process. From start to finish we felt well informed, supported and encouraged. We would not hesitate to recommend his services to others.- Anonymous
Peter knowing the market combined with us asking a fair price meant that an offer came after 3 weeks. Be reasonable in your price or stay on the market for much longer.- Anonymous
