About Nicole
Early on in my career, it was clear that customer-centric roles were for me. I absolutely love being around people and helping them achieve their goals. Prior to real estate, I had a long and successful career with one of New Zealand’s leading life insurers, working in various departments but always with a focus on people. Growing up on Auckland’s North Shore, I have been very fortunate to get to know the area intimately but admittedly have a soft spot for the beautiful Bays. The lifestyle that the area offers with the beaches, family-friendly communities, amazing schools and cafes is sought after by many. Having bought and sold property myself, I understand the process can be stressful - but it doesn’t need to be! I will be there with you every step of the way with support and guidance; keeping you informed and alleviating some of the pressures. I am extremely driven and dedicated to achieving the best possible results for you. If you are thinking about selling or buying I would be honoured to help. Give me a call – we’ll have a meaningful discussion about your real estate needs.

Simply Outstanding

This is the second time I have worked with Raelene, and again I have to say that she is simply fantastic to work with. She provides very sound advice and is honest in her feedback and expectation setting. I would not hesitate to work with her again, and would highly recommend her to anyone wanting to sell a property.

Great first time Auction experience with Alan Chen on our side!

Great first time Auction experience with Alan Chen on our side!

We recently had the pleasure of working with Alan Chen during our first home auction purchase, and the experience couldn’t have gone more smoothly. From the outset, Alan was incredibly comprehensive with his information, making sure we understood each step of the process clearly and confidently. What really stood out was his calm and steady approach throughout what can be a very stressful experience. There was never any pressure, just clear guidance, honest communication, and genuine support, which made a huge difference for us as it was our first time at a home auction. Thanks to Alan, what could have been an overwhelming auction process felt manageable and well controlled. We walked away not only with a successful purchase in West Harbour, but also with real appreciation for the level of professionalism and care he brought to the journey. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a knowledgeable and reassuring agent.

We never felt judged they always treated us with respect

Our real estate agent Frank Li went out of his way to show us different properties so we could make a better informed decision. He was an excellent communicator and very efficient. Bob's negotiation skills were top notch. We would definately use them again with purchasing property. Throughout this whole process they never made any judgement or discriminated against us they were very respectful, straight up and welcoming. We loved using their service!

Proactive, Professional and Personable

I had a fantastic experience working with Bruce. From the first viewing, they were incredibly friendly and approachable, making what can be a stressful process feel much more manageable. He maintained a high level of professionalism throughout, providing clear, honest advice and ensuring every detail was handled correctly. What really stood out was his proactive approach; he didn’t wait for things to happen, but stayed ahead of the process, keeping me updated at every turn and resolving potential issues before they even arose. I couldn't recommend him highly enough
