Village Real Estate

Purchasing and selling homes can be a stressful process and my aim is to make the experience a smooth one for everyone concerned. With over two decades in the real estate industry since 2001, I bring experience, local knowledge, and genuine care to every property journey. Having built my business largely through repeat clients and referrals, I’m proud that so many people choose to work with me time and again — and trust me to look after their friends and family too. I know the Kāpiti market exceptionally well, particularly Waikanae, where I have lived for the past 30 years. Being part of this community gives me a great understanding of the area, its people, and what makes it such a special place to call home. One of the greatest privileges of my career has been the wonderful people I’ve met along the way — many of whom have become dear friends. Real estate is about more than property; it’s about relationships, trust, and helping people confidently move into their next chapter. Outside of work, I’m married to Bryan and am the very proud mum of three grown-up daughters — my greatest accomplishment. We love entertaining friends, spending time in the garden, renovating our home, and enjoying the occasional round of golf. I look forward to meeting you and helping you make your next move with confidence and ease. Follow me on Instagram moirasimpsonrealestate

What truly distinguishes Liam is the exceptional value he brings to his clients. His business ethos revolves around open communication, relentless dedication, and transparent dealings, all with a light-hearted friendly approach. With over 19 years of unwavering commitment in the real estate industry, Liam has established himself as a trusted authority in the Kapiti Coast property market. His intimate understanding of the local market's ebb and flow provides his clients with invaluable insights, ensuring their property journeys are well-guided. Perhaps it is growing up reading the likes of “Rich Dad, Poor Dad”, however Liam has always felt comfortable with real estate as a sound investment, because you have full control over it (not a board of directors), can add value to it, can leverage off it, it is easy to understand (unlike NFT’s, crypto etc) and you can create fond memories living in it of course! Liam’s spare time seems to be filled by chauffeuring his kids around, and enjoys playing most sports himself, when the opportunity arises. He is a passionate follower of Australian Rules Football (that crazy game no one understands over here) and will jump at any opportunity to travel overseas in the off-season. When inspired, he enjoys honing his culinary skills, sometimes attempting (with little success) to recreate a fantastic meal he's enjoyed whilst dining out locally. Prior to being an award-winning agent, Liam's background as a Chartered Accountant working for such companies as Ernst & Young in Australia where he grew up, and Credit Suisse, Bank Julius Bar & Deutsche Bank in the UK, has instilled in him a keen eye for detail, solid financial acumen and a strategic approach that has proven valuable in his real estate endeavours. Liam's journey in real estate has been enriched by further education, upgrading his Salesperson License to an Agents License, underlining his resolute devotion to delivering the highest level of professionalism and service. Clients can trust in Liam's ability to consistently surpass expectations, thanks to his commitment to delivering tangible and meaningful results. Reach out to him today to initiate a partnership that guarantees remarkable results, unwavering support, and a seamless experience from the outset, when selling your home. ---------------------------- “Liam Martin is professional, articulate, empathetic, flexible, sincere, organised, and friendly.

You would struggle to find anyone better. He’s not just there to get you a sold sign, he’s there to get you the best result. I Would definitely recommend Liam to anyone looking at selling their house, that’s wanting a top result.” Brett Smith “We bought AND sold through Liam and are so glad we did. Of all the agents we met he was the nicest, friendliest and most straight up- there was no hard sell, no fakeness and no BS, just total transparency all the way through for each transaction. It makes me think of the old advertising for Whittakers chocolate- 'just good, honest chocolate', well Liam is just good, honest real estate! We would def use him again but we love our new home so much we probably won't need to!” Aisling James

Hi, I’m Steph. I’ve found my calling in real estate. I take a considered approach to helping Kapiti Coast homeowners navigate one of life’s most significant decisions. With 15 years’ experience spanning sales, business ownership, and auctioneering, I’m known for my open-minded, client-centric style. My focus is on clear communication and tailored guidance, helping people understand their options and make informed decisions while stripping away unnecessary pressure. I particularly enjoy working with clients who value clarity, integrity, and a thoughtful approach. While I was Runner-Up in the Open Division of the 2025 REINZ National Auctioneering Championships, in practice I’m method-agnostic. I work confidently across tenders, pricing, and auctions to ensure the chosen strategy genuinely supports my client’s goals. I have a strong understanding of the selling process from start to finish, and I’m especially skilled at helping sellers navigate complexity with confidence. My work is practical, measured, and always shaped around what best supports each client’s situation. Outside of work, I value time with family, the outdoors, healthy living, and staying grounded. I’m probably better in person than on paper, so feel free to call me for a chat. I’d also love to hear about your situation and how I might be able to help. Let’s talk.
