About Lisa
#1 Sales Team 2025 - Barfoot & Thompson Coatesville Buying or selling your home can be an exciting yet somewhat stressful time - choosing the right person who understands your needs makes the process so much more enjoyable. My dedication and determination to find the right candidates to purchase your home - is what I do best. With an outgoing, empathetic nature, I am a focused salesperson and deliver results with care and competency. I have been a resident in North West Auckland for 30+ years and am astutely familiar with the area and strongly believe that Paremoremo, Riverhead and the surrounding suburbs offer the ultimate lifestyle, while remaining only 30 minutes’ drive to the Auckland CBD, and we’re surrounded by nature and the astounding rivers of the Upper Harbour. I am actively involved in the community and enjoy attending local karate and yoga classes. You will often find me walking in the area with one or all four of my children in tow and I’m always keen to stop and have a chat. Prior to my career in real estate, I studied business. Goal-orientated and results-driven roles as a debt collection agent, a personal trainer and an FMCG Sales Representative, reflect my love of working with people. Communication is key. All my client relationships begin in a relaxed environment over a coffee so I can listen to your needs. I strive to help people and pride myself on open and honest interaction. Let's meet for a chat– call or email to begin the process! An absolute specialist in the Paremoremo, Riverhead and surrounding suburbs, with results to back it up.

About Heather
Serving Torbay, Long Bay, Coatesville, Dairy Flat and the wider lifestyle community, I believe real estate is all about connection. I love meeting people, hearing the stories behind their homes and understanding what truly matters—whether you’re saying goodbye or starting your next chapter. Originally from the USA, I moved to New Zealand in 2000 and never looked back. My career has been wonderfully varied—from fine jewellery to super yachts to running my own clothing store—which means I’m comfortable connecting with people from all walks of life. I’ve spent over 12 years living on and managing lifestyle properties in Riverhead and Coatesville, giving me real insight into the day-to-day realities of land ownership. I understand the realities of rural living—mud, fencing, animals and all! Now based at Barfoot & Thompson Torbay, I’m proud to be part of a family-owned company with strong community values and a reputation for results. Outside of real estate, I’m passionate about horses and running—often seen out in Coatesville with my dog Enzo. Real estate with heart; professional, honest and always on your side. Call me at Barfoot & Thompson Torbay.

It is more than buy and sell property if you has the opportunity to buy or sell propery with Alan.

Working with Alan was more than just buying and selling a property. He was highly professional and guided us smoothly through both processes, which require very different strategies. With his experience and support, we achieved results beyond our expectations. If you are considering buying or selling, it is absolutely worth calling Alan. The journey at 11 Walter Crescent was truly unforgettable.

Top Notch Agent

We found Lisa to be an excellent agent, extremely helpful and professional with our dealings with her. We got to know her personally. She was highly motivated and exceptionally helpful, with an effective work ethic. She kept us up-do-date throughout the entire process, with a successful sale after a short marketing period. We would recommend her to anyone looking to sell their house, as our transaction went very smoothly, thanks to Lisa!
