I am looking forward to getting to know you and being the 'gold star' that assists you to buy or sell your property with all the professionalism that I offer. I have a genuine interest in understanding people and listening to their needs and wants. I gained my real estate ticket in June 2017 and have sold over 20 million dollars of property in Thames. I have achieved top placings in our company of 4 branches and Central Region awards. I love all aspects about property and bring a variety of experience, mostly customer service including sales in the building supplies industry, plus hands on renovating of my own homes. Living in Thames since 2016 and my hobbies include photography, bird care (I have a parrot, a naughty Galah called Georgie) fishing (and like a good coaster I have my own ‘tinny’ boat), cycling, pub quiz and bush walking. And I can share ideas about diverse income streams in Thames as I have hosted Airbnb guests and international students for over 3 years. Integrity, attention to detail, prompt follow up and trust are very important to me, and you will find I am a straight talker with a happy nature.

Real estate is a genuine passion, meeting all different people and helping them meet their dreams with new lifestyles. While enjoying a game of golf, playing bridge, enjoying bush walks and the lifestyle that Thames and the Coromandel offers, I have previously been the Treasurer of the Te Puru Bowling Club and have been involved with Age Concern as a volunteer visitor. I’ve been taught that hard work and premium customer service are paramount values of the business. I couple these with sharp attention to detail, honesty and an unwavering commitment to my clients. I can offer you a quality of service that will be of value to you whether buying or selling.

Tahlia brings genuine enthusiasm, energy and a down-to-earth approach to real estate.

She takes the time to understand what is important to her clients and builds genuine relationships along the way. Friendly, approachable and easy to deal with, Tahlia keeps things simple, communicates openly and is there to support her clients from start to finish. Born and raised in the Thames–Coromandel/Hauraki region, Tahlia has a genuine connection to the area and the lifestyle it offers. From the coast and native bush to the rural way of life, she has a genuine love for the area and the lifestyle it offers and enjoys helping others find their place here. Working alongside Nicola Hudson as Hudson & Co, Tahlia enjoys the team dynamic they have created and the different strengths they each bring. They share a genuine passion for property and people, working closely together to provide a personal, approachable and well-supported experience for their clients.
