Harcourts Fendalton

As much as Zani’s youthful appearance contributes to her energy and excellence, after working for 2 decades both here and abroad in complementary industries (legal and sales) it made sense for Zani to join the real estate industry in 2016. Subsequently achieving a Top 20 Canterbury placement within 3 years of being a licensed agent, her enthusiasm and passion for her clients has been integral to her success. Along with her husband Richard, she is a proud Mum of two wonderful girls – Libby (13) and Lexie (10). Zani recognises that her success has been and is the direct result of the successful outcomes she has achieved for her clients, which has led to clients happily recommending her and the team to represent their clients and work with them on a one-to-one level. Zani is the first to acknowledge that you only have one “first chance” when selling and first impressions are the most important. That can be from presenting the property in its best light (staging), providing all the information from the start (availability of information), picking the right platforms to showcase on and targeting the text to the right demographic of buyers (marketing). She acknowledges that this can be one of your biggest assets and she doesn’t take this lightly and is honoured that you have picked her and the team to represent you and your home in the marketplace where the is so much choice. Zani understands the power of digital marketing having been award with the Top Video Marketer since its inception in 2021 to 2024 to promote property and bring together opportunities that may slip past an older generation. Her energy and commitment to real estate is exciting as it is productive. Perhaps it comes from her commitment to her clients that marks her out as a person who knows that while marketing is so critical, face to face conversations is what generate results. Zani is incredibly supportive when clients are making important decisions. Zani’s legal secretarial experience provides a deep appreciation of the complexities and pitfalls that can trip someone up in post-quake Christchurch. Of course, Zani is supported by the rest of the amazing Nichols | Polson & Co team, along with her manager – Hayden Broadbelt and her key Auctioneers at Holmwood to ensure that your property requirements are given the level of professional support all our clients expect. ‘Energy’, ‘excellence’ and ‘experience’ are three words many would use to describe Zani and for those seeking a consultant that will go the extra mile and deliver great results, it would be a great decision to give her a call.

Hi there! We’ll try to keep it brief (because we do love a good chat), but if you want to know more, just sing out. Jan and I have one aim in real estate, to make the process as stress-free as possible and hopefully even enjoyable. Simple on paper, a bit trickier in practice. When my dad, Steven Marshall, retired after 36 years with Harcourts, I wanted to carry on the same level of service that only a partnership can offer and knowing Jan shared my work ethic, moral compass, and (crucially) my sense of humour, made her an easy and obvious choice. Lucky for me, she felt the same! We’re also lucky to have Jill and Sam, our buyers' agents dedicated to find you your dream home, and Niamh, our personal assistant, working alongside us to ensure everything runs smoothly behind the scenes. Both of us are fortunate to have spent our whole careers working out of the multi award-winning Fendalton office alongside longstanding icons of the Christchurch real estate scene. We’ve been trained and raised in an environment which prioritises long-term relationships and advice over commission and sales. We’re immensely proud of the reputations and track records we’ve built individually, consistently ranking amongst Holmwood’s Top 20 agents, joining forces and now ranking 3rd in Holmwood, 10th in Canterbury and 26th in New Zealand for the 2025/26 year. Two heads, double the energy, and twice the results, proving elite performance can be achieved without the drama.

Buying her first home with her husband in Christchurch in 1996 ignited Jan’s interest in real estate. Her real estate career started in 2013 working as a personal assistant to a top performing agent which quickly progressed to gaining her own licence. With an ability to see what a home can become, and an ability to listen to her clients wants and needs, means Jan is becoming known for getting people what they want now, and what they may need in the future with many people finding their forever home. With a rental portfolio of her own Jan also specialises in purchasing the right rental property matching her client’s strengths and needs. She has a passionate and heartfelt drive to serve her clients’ best interests. Meeting new people and helping clients find the right house to call home is her absolute passion. Her client dedication and love of helping others are what motivate her most. Unparalleled customer service has resulted in a continuously expanding network of loyal clients and referrals.
