About Kathryn

I am a Whakatane local and I absolutely love the remarkable lifestyle we have here in the easrtern Bay of Plenty. I grew up in Ohope Beach and have lived rurally for nearly 20 years, first on our Kiwifruit Orchard in Otakiri and now on our lifestyle property in Onepu. I entered Real Estate after a 20 year career in RMA Planning and Policy, where I project managed the resource consenting process for large and small scale projects, I assisted in the development of national, regional and district policies and plans and attended Environment Court and Council mediation and hearings. I believe that my local connections and past work history has provided me with a unique set of skills. I am exceptional at providing clear communication and follow through for both sellers and buyers and have strong negotiation skills which achieve outstanding results for my clients. In addition I have a technical background in knowing how to interpret and what to look at in property files, records of title, LIM reports and regional and district plans so you can sell not just your home but your properties potential. Specialising in rural lifestyle properties, I have successfully marketed and sold a number of properties across the Eastern Bay over the last 15 months. I fully understand that for many, lifestyle properties are not just about bedrooms, kitchens and bathrooms, they are about so much more. Every lifestyle property is unique and therefore needs a tailored approach to marketing to maximise results. So, if your looking to make a property move anywhere within Whakatane or across the Eastern Bay of Plenty and want an agent who is truly local, knowledgeable and straight up, then let's have a chat about achieving your property goals.

Savina once again proved her tenacity, determination, and efficiency. My price within 6 weeks. SOLD

Everyone said you're asking too much. Everyone said nothing is selling. Sabina suggested cleaning, gardening, touching up the lawns, touching up paint work and staging the property. She refused to list the property till it was up to standard. Her suggestion of tender, with a set sale date worked perfectly. The marketing spiel she wrote couldn't have been worded better. She understoood the demographics of the area, she knew her target market. Regular 2pm Sunday open homes proved to bring the right people in. So, with my price in mind she made the sales process seem like a walk in the park. No stress whatsoever.

Kathryn was an absolute pleasure to work with throughout the purchase of our property at 112A Hallett Road, Otakiri. She was professional, knowledgeable, and kept us informed every step of the way, making the entire process smooth and stress-free. Kathryn was always approachable, quick to respond to any questions, and genuinely committed to achieving the best outcome. Her honesty, communication, and attention to detail gave us confidence from start to finish. We couldn't be happier with our new property and are grateful for Kathryn's support and guidance. We highly recommend Kathryn to anyone looking to buy or sell property. Thank you for making the experience such a positive one!
