What I love about most real estate is the chance to help people achieve their dreams. Everyone deserves their own slice of Kiwi paradise, and whether it’s a family home, lifestyle block or investment property, I’m here to help make that happen. My clients describe me as easy, practical and down-to-earth. With a lifetime of experience in the rural sector - born and bred on a dairy farm, working as a livestock agent and then, over the past five and a half years, selling residential and rural property with Barfoot & Thompson’s Waiuku team - I bring hands-on knowledge and a personable approach to my sales role. Having recently moved from the Auckland region down to the Bay, I’m now proud to be part of the Barfoot & Thompson Mount Maunganui office, serving the greater Mount Maunganui and Papamoa areas. Relocating to this fantastic part of the country marks an exciting new chapter for my wife Heather and I – we’re both beach lovers, we enjoy walking up to 10km a day and soaking up everything this wonderful area has to offer. Also, staying with Barfoot & Thompson during this move has been an added bonus, as the company’s family values and strong community focus align closely with my own. Family is all-important to me – Heather and I are thrilled to now have seven grandchildren to keep us on our toes! I’m a long-term supporter of the Heart Foundation, the Red Cross and the Cancer Society. More recently, I’ve become a supporter of The Neonatal Trust, after my daughter had a little girl at just 25 weeks. Whether you’re looking at a tiny unit or a sprawling lifestyle property, I believe there’s no such thing as a silly question in real estate. If it’s important to you, it’s important to me – my goal is to provide honest advice, valuable insights, and a steady hand throughout your journey. Call me at Barfoot & Thompson Mount Maunganui, I’d love to put my experience to work for you.
