About Mel
Since joining the Barfoot & Thompson Manukau branch I have engaged in my local area – I now have an intimate knowledge of the area and community. One of the main reasons I joined the real estate industry was the culture and longstanding reputation of the Barfoot & Thompson brand – a family-owned and managed company has been thriving for over 100 years. And guess what? I wanted to be a part of this! Before diving into the wonderful world of real estate, I had a successful career as a department manager and assistant store manager in the retail industry. But my true adventure began in 2015 when I took to the skies as an international flight attendant for seven years. Making customers happy and ensuring they felt well taken care of was my top priority, just like it is in the real estate business. Let's talk about Auckland, the multicultural metropolis that's growing at lightning speed. It's a city where everything you desire is right at your fingertips - from stunning beaches to mouth-watering food, cultural events, and vibrant arts scenes. When I'm not assisting clients on their real estate journeys, you'll find me cherishing special moments with my loved ones and friends. As a food enthusiast, I love to cook and try new recipes. Oh, and let me spill a little secret - I have an undeniable passion for fashion! Finding that one-of-a-kind piece that screams "must-have" is my guilty pleasure. With my outgoing personality and unwavering passion for what I do, I exude positive energy and a can-do attitude. Get in touch with me today and let's turn your dreams into a reality. An adventure awaits!

Exceptional experience with genuine care and support

Exceptional experience with genuine care and support

My experience with Krish Malik was excellent. From the beginning, Krish was very supportive, professional, and easy to communicate with. His knowledge of the market, negotiation skills, and guidance throughout the process were outstanding. He always made us feel valued and treated us like family rather than just clients. Even after everything was completed, he continues to be there to help whenever needed. I truly appreciate his honesty, dedication, and the effort he put in to make the whole experience smooth and stress-free.

We are very grateful for everything Ayesha has done for us throughout this process. She has been patient, kind, and always willing to answer our questions and communicate with the vendor. We could genuinely feel that she wanted to help us find a solution and make things work. Buying a home can be stressful, but her support and professionalism made the experience much easier. Thank you so much, and we highly recommend her to anyone looking to buy a home.

Happy First home buyer - trustable experience

Happy First home buyer - trustable experience

We wanted to share how happy we are that we chose Sanjay Pradhan as our real estate agent for our first home purchase. As first-home buyers, trust was the most important factor for us throughout the process. Sanjay made that easy from day one. He provided honest, straightforward advice without any pressure, and took the time to explain each step clearly. That transparency gave us the confidence to make decisions without second-guessing ourselves. His knowledge of the market and genuine approach made what can be an overwhelming process feel manageable and reassuring. We felt supported, informed, and in control the entire way. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Sanjay to any first-home buyer looking for an agent they can truly rely on.
