About Scott
Hi, I'm Scott. If you're here, you're probably thinking about buying, selling, or simply wondering what your next move looks like. Whatever stage you're at, welcome. I believe people choose a real estate agent for one simple reason - they trust them. And trust starts with being genuine. For me, real estate has never been just about property. It's about people. Every home has a story, and every move marks a new chapter in someone's life. I never lose sight of that. Why work with me? Because you'll always get the real me. I'll give you honest advice, even if it's not always what you were hoping to hear. I'll keep you informed, return your calls, and make sure you always know what's happening. No pressure. No sales talk. Just clear communication and a commitment to achieving the best result possible. Marketing that makes people feel something. Anyone can upload photos to a website. My job is to make buyers stop scrolling. I love creating marketing that tells a story and helps people imagine themselves living in your home. Every property is different, so every campaign should be too. Home is here. Papamoa isn't just where I work - it's where I live, where I spend time with family and friends, and where I'm proud to help people build their future. Being local means I understand not only the market but the lifestyle that makes this community such a special place to call home. A little about me. Outside of real estate, you'll usually find me near the beach, catching up with friends over coffee, or thinking about the next creative marketing idea. I'm a proud Gemini, which probably explains why my mind is always working on new ways to help my clients stand out. I take my work seriously, but I don't believe selling your home has to be stressful. A little humour, honest conversations and great communication go a long way. My promise to you. I'll be honest. I'll work hard. I'll communicate with you every step of the way. I'll treat your home with the same care and respect I'd expect for my own. Most importantly, I'll remember that I'm not just helping you sell a house - I'm helping you through one of life's biggest moments. If you're looking for someone who's approachable, genuine, and committed to getting the best outcome, I'd love to have a chat. No pressure. Just a conversation. Real estate is about people. Property just happens to be what we talk about. What others say.... Exceptional, Effervescent Scotts in-debt knowledge of the market, and his bubbly, friendly and warm personality are infectious and still, he was professional. He made me feel like he was a long-time friend, was excited for me, and was experiencing the same excitement I was. He wasn't pushy and treated me with respect. I loved Scott's whole attitude, he is a consummate professional yet makes you feel very special - SL Scott is a true Professional - Following an unsuccessful listing with another real estate agent, Scott was like a breath of fresh air. He was very professional, full of enthusiasm, had great ideas, and a positive attitude to our particular property features. He presented two offers at full asking price within 2 weeks of listing and one is unconditional as I write this. After 8 months with the previous agent, this was a fabulous result, Well done Scott - R & L Cleaver Great Agent, Great Results - If you are looking for a rising star in real estate who is hardworking, proactive, totally professional and keeps you informed at every stage, then Scott Symes is the man for you. He understands the value of communication, and to say he went above and beyond for us is an understatement. We cannot recommend him highly enough - J & B

Alan was great. Kept me informed throughout the process. Never wavered in his enthusiasm for the house, which was reassuring for me and kept me on track for the open homes. He was very kind and my son and I appreciated every thing he did to get a brilliant result.
