About Liz
Success is the Result of Hard Work Figure skating is one of the most difficult disciplines to master on the ice. It requires years of practice, discipline and passion to succeed and, as an ex New Zealand Ice Figure Skating representative, Liz knows just how challenging this can be. Now her focus is real estate and this effervescent university graduate will bring those same qualities that made her an Ice Figure Skating champion, and make her a success in her chosen career. Liz knows all too well that success is not about her, but about hard work, meaningful communication and forming positive relationships with her clients to achieve the property outcomes they want. Her experience in sales and marketing in the construction industry has given her a solid understanding of the value of research and the minefields of property legislation that are ever more complex and important, so she can deliver top quality results to her clients. Passion, loyalty to her clients and doing ‘the right thing’ are a few of the attributes that Liz embodies. She knows only too well that success is the by-product of hard work, and those that have met her will know how energised she is. Choosing to work with Liz is a smart move – she has the commitment to achieve, the understanding to deliver great results and the desire to listen to her clients. She understands that behind every property transaction is a very important set of decisions which must be respected and supported. Deciding to engage with Liz about a sale or purchase of a home is a great call and she would love to talk to you today.

The best in the business!

The best in the business!

On the very first day of looking at houses figuring out what we’d like for our first home, my fiancée and I came across Logan at one of his home showings. We had been to 8 different open homes that day and Logan was far and away the most down to earth, kind, and respectful real estate agent we had the pleasure to meet. When we got home that afternoon we both agreed we’d love for Logan to be our buying agent to help us through the process. Ever since then, Logan was our go to guy whether it was talking about potential houses, or questions about the actual process of buying our first home. Logan was attentive, friendly, easy going, and above all, very professional the entire time. After 4 months of Logan being our agent (we are incredibly picky, which he put up with!) we’ve purchased our dream home. Logan played a huge part in our journey and we are forever grateful. From start to finish, nothing was too much or too hard of an ask for Logan. We have, and will continue to recommend him as an agent to others going through the buying process as having someone like Logan by your side makes life so much easier, and fun!

Outstanding communication, professionalism and an amazing result!

We couldn't be happier with the service Jono provided throughout the sale of our home. Jono has excellent communication skills and always explained everything clearly, giving us honest advice on what was best for us. The process was quite stressful for us at times, but Jono was always understanding, patient and supportive, helping us get through everything calmly. The result was amazing! He helped us successfully sell our home and get everything finalised within just two weeks, which exceeded our expectations. His professionalism made the whole process seamless, and we really appreciated the genuine connection and great working relationship we built along the way. We are truly grateful for all his hard work and would happily recommend Jono to anyone looking to sell their home. Thank you, Jono!

Great result in a challenging market

Great result in a challenging market

Clarence did a great job selling my property. The market wasn’t necessarily hot but we managed to achieve a price where everyone was happy. The property was presented so well that it almost made me want to buy the house again! Nonetheless, I’m happy to have this chapter closed with the support of Clarence and the team at Harcourts. Top marks!
