About Geraldine

Thirty-two years in Dunedin real estate, and Geraldine still approaches every property listing the same way she did on day one - with genuine care for the people on the other side of the deal. Alongside Peter, Amelia and the wider team at The Hermens Group | LJ Hooker Dunedin, she's built a reputation on doing the fundamentals well: clear communication, sharp negotiation, and a calm head when things get stressful, because for most clients, selling their home can be overwhelming. That combination has made her one of the most sought-after advisers in the region, and it shows in the results: multiple years as LJ Hooker Dunedin's No.1 salesperson, and New Zealand's top auction marketer since 2014. What sets Geraldine apart isn't just the numbers, though there are plenty of those. It's a straightforward belief that real estate should be handled with the same rigour and respect regardless of the property's size or price point - and a team around her that shares it.

Seller review
 Walked with us very professionally throughout the whole process.

Walked with us very professionally throughout the whole process.

Geraldine helped us and gave us good advice from beginning to end. From having a good gauge on whether it was a good time to put on the market, through to final sale, Geraldine guided us through what can often be an intense time of marketing and selling a house with minimal stress. Her professional knowledge is superb. And her regular communication with us of what was happening at each stage was reassuring and clear. Geraldine guided and informed but did not push. We were very grateful for her steady hand, and expertise in her job.
