About Kinbou

For me, deciding to join the Barfoot & Thompson family was a spot-on decision. For almost a century it’s been a household name synonymous with service, integrity and honesty. No other company lists and sells more real estate in Auckland, a fact of which I’m particularly proud. Committed to doing what is fair and right by my clients, I've built a reputation for being a highly principled and structured real estate salesperson. With a background in mechanical structural design and project management, it’s not surprising that my customers benefit from a process-driven and best-practices approach to buying and selling houses. Property transactions can be a very challenging experience. The way I see it, my job is to get alongside my vendors and purchasers and remove all the stress. They need to be happy at the end of the process. Everything else falls into place after that. Fluent in Mandarin and English, and with excellent communication and negotiating skills, I have worked all over the world with a wide and diverse range of people. The secret is, that everyone wants the same thing - someone to look after them, give them great advice, and treat them with honesty and respect. It’s as simple as that. I enjoy working with people and thrive in an environment where there is no cap on success. In my spare time I enjoy reading, tramping, travelling and playing table tennis. I often swim in the sea on a summer’s day, and firmly believe that to operate at optimum efficiency there needs to be a perfect balance between life and work. I care about you and your property as much as you do. Whether you are buying or selling, I can help.

ETHICAL & GENUINE

Hans Kang sold our property in Orakei Auckland even though he is based on the Shore. Hans understood our needs and focused solely on getting our house sold and ensured that the sale went smoothly. Hans understood the current property market values and was extremely trustworthy, honest and ethical. Customer service was unmatched. Working with Hans was an absolute pleasure and we can't say enough positive things. Hans' genuine care and support provided us a totally reassuring experience. We wouldn't hesitate in recomming Hans to anyone. James and Gill

Trustworthy and dedicated agent

My husband and I had an excellent experience working with Hans Kang, and we would highly recommend to anyone looking for a trustworthy and genuinely committed real estate agent. What impressed us most was how thoroughly he took the time to understand what was important to us. Rather than simply showing us properties, he proactively researched the specific things we were interested in and looked into the details before presenting a property to us. He carefully considered both the advantages and potential concerns and explained everything Cleary, honestly, and in a way that helped us make an informed decision. We never felt that he was simply trying to make a sale. He was patient, attentive , and genuinely focused on finding the right property for us. His preparation, attention to detail, and willingness to investigate things thoroughly gave us a great deal of confidence throughout the process. Buying a property is a major decision, and having an agent you can trust makes a huge difference. We truely appreciated his professionalism, integrity, and dedication , and would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone looking for an agent who genuinely cares about his clients and does his homework.

From first sale to lasting connection with Andre

We first met Andre when he was our real estate agent back in 2014 when we bought our home. It was our first time buying a property through auction, so there were a lot of things we were unsure about. Andre was very accommodating whenever we had questions or concerns about the property and was always happy to explain things and give us advice on what we needed to prepare, especially leading up to the auction. He also gave us some helpful tips on what to expect and what we needed to do on the day of the auction, which made the whole process much easier for us. I believe our property was one of the first houses Andre sold when he started as an agent, and it has been great to see how much he has achieved since then. Over the years, we know he has helped many buyers and sellers and built a lot of success stories through his dedication and experience. What I also appreciate is that, even after more than 10 years, Andre has continued to keep in touch with us. He regularly keeps us updated on what is happening in the property market, particularly in our area, and he always makes an effort to stay connected. He even remembers to send me a birthday card every year, which is a small thing but shows the kind of personal relationship he builds with his clients. I would definitely recommend Andre to anyone looking to buy or sell a property. He is knowledgeable, approachable and genuinely cares about helping his clients. We are very happy that we had Andre as our agent and have stayed connected with him over the years.
