About Richard
Such is the ‘pull’ of the Central Otago and Queenstown region that two of Harcourts’ most celebrated lifestyle property agents have returned to take up residence – like a good wine for which the region is renowned. After almost 30 years’ living in Queenstown and Arrowtown Richard and Sue Woerlee made the move to Christchurch way back in 2006. They’d played an important role in opening and successfully establishing the multi-award-winning Harcourts Arrowtown office, but Sue wanted to pursue her passion for equestrian dressage and their son was at boarding school in Christchurch. Sue admits she “didn’t make a good boarding school parent” and the move resolved that, while also enabling her to eventually compete at the NZ Dressage Championships. Their business flourished – spending several years in the top 5% of national salespeople and eventually specialising in lifestyle properties and quality residential homes in and around North Canterbury for Harcourts. Business success continued, recognised as Harcourts’ Top Lifestyle Property Sales Team in Canterbury and featuring in national awards from 2018 to 2024. And now they’re back down south. “We’ve been wanting to come back for quite some time but the Canterbury business had grown so much and there were so many referrals and repeat clients it was hard to leave!” says Sue. “But what brought us back is quite simply that this region is home. We couldn’t procrastinate any more, we just needed to do it. “We loved the idea of being closer to family and where we’re living in Queensberry means we have land for us and the horses and we’re handy to everything.”

An exceptional agent who understands the premium Wanaka property market

From our very first meeting with Kylie, it was clear she has a deep understanding of the premium and luxury property market in Wanaka, knowing exactly what discerning buyers are looking for and how to position a home of quality with high-end finishes to attract them. What set Kylie apart was her warmth and genuine care. She is a terrific listener and took the time to understand what we wanted rather than pushing her own agenda. She never once felt like an agent simply chasing a sale and genuinely wanted us to achieve a result that WE were happy with. Her negotiation skills are exceptional. Calm, firm, and strategic, Kylie navigated a difficult market with a steady hand. She was realistic and honest, but also incredibly hard-working and truly supported us emotionally through the uncertain process of selling. For us, the true mark of an exceptional agent is how they handle and support you through tough market conditions — and Kylie was outstanding. Combine that with her deep local knowledge, particularly of high-end homes with quality finishes, Kylie is an agent who is in a class of her own. Professional, personal, and absolutely committed to her clients, we couldn't imagine selling with anyone else!

Exceptional Performance

From our very first meeting with Kylie we were extremely impressed by her. Kylie responded immediately to the many questions that we had and always did so in a very respectful way to the Vendors. She made the process of us placing an offer and the negotiations that followed an enjoyable one, greatly assisted by her calm and confident way. We would highly recommend Kylie as a real estate agent for any potential seller in the Wanaka area and beyond.
