I’m Kim Watt, a leading sales consultant with Ray White Tauranga, and I’m proud to be the top-performing agent in the office. I’ve also achieved Elite status, placing me in the top 3% of Ray White agents across New Zealand and Australia — a reflection of consistently strong results, trusted advice, and happy clients.

Originally from Yorkshire, UK, Tash followed her adventurous spirit to New Zealand in 2013 and happily settled in the beautiful Bay of Plenty. Tash is defined by her vibrant and approachable personality. She brings fun and positivity to every interaction, creating an environment where clients feel valued, supported, and completely at ease. Loyalty runs deep, and she sees her clients as far more than just business relationships. With a down-to-earth, outgoing nature, Tash’s mantra is simple yet powerful: Communication, Dedication, Persistence, Trust, and Adaptability. She’s proud to break the stereotype — proving that real estate agents can be both friendly and effective while achieving outstanding results. Being a former New Zealand Police Officer, strengthened her people skills, resilience, and ability to navigate challenges - all of which she uses to guide clients confidently through their property journey. When she’s not helping clients, you’ll find Tash outdoors — mountain biking, hiking, roller skating, snowboarding, or spending time with her horses. A country girl at heart, she’s just as happy in her scruffs and gumboots as she is in the office. Real estate doesn’t have to be stressful or complicated. With Tash, it isn’t just a transaction - it’s an experience you can trust and enjoy.
