About Scott

When it comes to real estate sales, Scott brings an extraordinary set of skills to the table. As one of the top-rated real estate salespeople in New Zealand, Scott’s background puts him as a marketing expert for the Nelson / Tasman region. One of Scott’s main specialities is selling newly built homes. Buying a home that is new, or cannot be seen yet, is an art and requires expert knowledge to help buyers visualise themselves living in the home and take that great step with their own home or investment. However what’s even more impressive is that it is certainly not all Scott does, and he is well versed in selling other types of properties including existing or older homes, as well as sections – which he also holds an outstanding track record over. From producing and marketing to promoting properties, negotiating, and handling the fulfilment and technical aspects of a successful sale, Scott gets the job done. He has the ability to attract buyers from across the country and support them with a special sense of kindness and care that brings outstanding results, whether they are buying for an investment, themselves, their family, or with the goal of upsizing, downsizing, and so forth. Scott was also awarded the Individual Sales Consultant of the Year and was ranked as one of Rate My Agent’s top salespeople. He was also awarded the Chairman’s Elite Award at Ray White, which at the time put him in the top 3% of salespeople nationally. He earned these accolades through providing excellent service, being responsive, having the ability to sell a property for top dollar, and being an overall marketing expert for homes. His past clients would attest that he is extremely hard-working and goes the extra mile in facilitating the sale of the property. Furthermore, underpinning this sales and marketing knowledge further is his years of experience working in the building industry. This technical knowledge he holds provides him with valuable construction knowledge that supports the sale of homes. He worked both as a qualified builder and in sales development for a well-known building merchant, Carters. Outside of work, Scott spends quality time with his family and enjoys the outdoors and various forms of recreation. Active in the Nelson / Tasman community, Scott is a well-connected person who is also passionate about giving back.

Outstanding Service and Support from Scott and the Tall Poppy Team

Outstanding Service and Support from Scott and the Tall Poppy Team

We had an excellent experience working with Scott and the Tall Poppy team. Scott provided outstanding service throughout the entire process. He was professional, efficient, supportive, and kept us well informed every step of the way. His communication was always clear, prompt, and honest, which made what can be a stressful process feel straightforward and manageable. We were also incredibly grateful for the support of Loretta, who helped everything run smoothly behind the scenes. Together, they made a fantastic team and ensured that every detail was taken care of. We are very happy with the result and would highly recommend Scott and Tall Poppy Real Estate to anyone looking to sell their home. Thank you both for making the experience such a positive one.

Thoughtful, passionate, great communicator and amazing support. Scott is your guy--buying or selling

I first met Scott buying a house around 2018. He was open, honest and gave me great perspective from his experience having been a builder in the past. After the purchase, there were no surprises. I got what I paid for and ended up really happy. When coming to sell a house, I did my due diligence, but Scott still stood out among the other agencies. As it was when I was a buyer, Scott walked me through every step, gave me so much support and advice. It felt like a partnership to find the right buyer. There are ups and downs in all negotiations, but Scott's warmth, calm demeanor and transparent communication on the various options in front of me gave me peace of mind. Based on my experiences, I fully recommend Scott and his team at Tall Poppy Real Estate.

Scott was excellent - and put our minds at ease

Scott was excellent - and put our minds at ease

We can't recommend Scott Geary highly enough. From the very first conversation, it was clear we were working with someone who genuinely knew the market and had our best interests at heart, not just a sales pitch. What stood out most was how fast everything moved. We'd braced ourselves for the usual drawn-out house-hunting process, but Scott was on top of new listings the moment they hit the market, got us in for viewings quickly, and never let paperwork or scheduling become a bottleneck. Offers, counteroffers, inspections, financing coordination — he kept every piece moving without us ever feeling rushed or pressured. Buying a home is stressful by nature, and this was our first time going through it. Scott made a real point of explaining each step clearly before it happened, so we always knew what to expect next. Whenever we had questions (and we had a lot), he answered them patiently and honestly, even when the honest answer wasn't necessarily what we wanted to hear. That kind of straightforwardness built real trust fast. On top of all that, Scott was just easy and pleasant to work with. Calls and texts were returned quickly, he was upfront about timelines, and he had a calm, reassuring presence that made a genuinely nerve-wracking process feel manageable. There were a few bumps along the way, as there always are with real estate, but Scott handled each one calmly and competently, and kept us informed the whole time. Thanks to him, we closed on our house faster than we ever expected, at a price we felt good about, and with far less stress than we'd anticipated. If you're looking for a real estate agent who is knowledgeable, responsive, and genuinely on your side, we can't recommend Scott Geary enough. He turned what could have been an overwhelming experience into one we actually look back on positively. We'll absolutely be calling him again for any future real estate needs, and we've already started recommending him to friends and family.

Scott is more than a real estate agent

Scott is more than a real estate agent

Scott has been around a while and has also sold for our parents. He is a super nice person. As we were selling but we didn't live in the area Scott and his team went above and beyond doing little jobs for us that we couldn't do. He also gave us great advice. By getting a new valuation we achieved a great result in a challenging market. Scott always wears a smile and seems to genuinely enjoy his day. He is interested in people ...for who they are not just the transaction. He has a great team and Nathan I believe was instrumental in getting us a good buyer. Tall Poppy we do believe offers a great cost effective package. The marketing is easy and stress-free. I think especially if you are selling in Richmond area you cant go past Scott. He is well known and seems to have more than his fair share of the market. Scott's been alot of fun ....and thanks for climbing that ladder to prune that branch Scott....its definitely above and beyond....and we know your a busy chap. Also thanks to Loreena as I know she is the support behind the scene that gets the job done. Well done team. Craig and Cathy 2C Cautley St
