About Arron
Backed by years of experience in the Nelson and Tasman real estate market, I’ve had the privilege of helping a wide range of clients successfully buy and sell homes—ranging from investment properties and first homes to lifestyle blocks and high-end residences. My approach is built on trust, straight-up communication, and a deep understanding of what matters most to my clients. Whether you're stepping onto the property ladder or selling a prestigious home, I bring calm, confidence, and proven negotiation skills to the table—always with your goals at the forefront. Prior to real estate, I spent over three decades in sales, marketing, and leadership roles. That background helps me craft effective strategies tailored to each property and client, ensuring every campaign is targeted, polished, and results-driven. Now with Bayleys, I’m proud to align with a brand known for quality, reach, and service. If you're thinking of making a move—whether buying or selling—I’d love to help guide you through your next step. Outside of work, you’ll likely find me with family, out on the water fishing, playing a round of golf, or enjoying good music and downtime.

About Lydia
My Life ..... You may ask why have I been in real estate for so many years – the truth is that I really enjoy meeting people and pulling all of the real estate pieces together to conclude a sale. It is very satisfying. I am a country girl from the Murchison area, bought up to understand that hard work doesn’t hurt you and that having a straight forward and uncomplicated approach to life works best. My husband and I live on a 40 hectare rural property just outside of Richmond where we enjoy all things rural. Being able to share my vast real estate knowledge in a way that helps people, brings me great pleasure. You are welcome to call me at any time.

Licensed Real Estate Agent / Lifestyle and Rural Sales Consultant

About Sharyn
With a background in the sheep and agri industries of 30 years, Sharyn found the transition to rural real estate to be an easy and natural one. Originally studying at Lincoln University, Sharyn went on to work as a wool buyer for a New Zealand wool exporting company for 14 years, purchasing wool on behalf of high-end Italian and Japanese spinning mills and liaising with farmers. Through her exposure to the rural industry, Sharyn says she gained a great understanding of the people she dealt with on a daily basis. “I learnt to understand rural people and what was important to them,” she says. This knowledge proved useful when she went on to work for The New Zealand Merino Company as an area manager for 13 years working with her High Country farming clients in Central Otago, Mackenzie Country and then later in the greater Canterbury region. “ I wish I had of thought about Rural Real Estate as a career a long time ago as it is such an exciting and challenging industry, the people we meet and the very cool places we get to visit and bring to the market is a highlight for me,” Sharyn says. Nelson and Tasman’s diverse and interesting rural landscape has always been a drawcard for Sharyn and with the varied nature of the rural real estate industry, she says no two days are the same – Sheep, Beef, Horticulture, Dairy, Lifestyle all in one day!

He had what we wanted before we even knew

Arron was selling our home and in the process he asked us what were we looking for, when we gave him our list he said I think I know of one that might be of interest to you and it wasn’t even on the market at that time but was going to be going on the market within the next year, but with his knowledge and experience he had it across the line within weeks and it was pretty much exactly what we said we were looking for. It couldn’t have worked out any better no house hunting at open homes or price wars just us and Arron it was so good.

Couldn’t as for more

Although Stephanie was fairly new to the real estate game I couldn’t speak more highly of the service she provided. What she may have lacked in experience Stephanie more than made up for in her show of commitment and communication to get me a result beyond what I expected. I unfortunately didn’t make things easy but the whole time Stephanie remained composed and positive to achieve a great outcome. A true example of what the right attitude can achieve. Highly recommend Stephanie in taking care of getting the best result in selling possibly your biggest asset. 11/10👍

Willing to go the extra kilometre

Steve was an absolute pleasure to work with. He is personable, knowledgeable, and an excellent communicator, but what really stood out was how incredibly hard he worked for us. He ran at least three open homes each week, along with multiple follow-up visits for interested buyers, and kept us fully informed every step of the way. He negotiated with integrity, professionalism, and genuine care, and managed to sell our very large home in under three weeks. By the end of the process, we felt like we hadn’t just worked with a great agent — we’d made a friend. We cannot recommend him highly enough.
