About Carl

It's an exciting time to be working in the real estate industry where rewards come from initiative, skill and experience. I developed these qualities from my previous career in sales and marketing, advertising, new business development and building brands. Building a new FMCG (Fast-moving Consumer Goods) brand from scratch and taking it to a $1M turnover in 15 months without commercial finance, is something of which I am particularly proud. I've learned to listen, build rapport, set goals and find solutions to problems, all of which I believe will strengthen my ability to achieve mutual and agreed outcomes for my clients. Mairangi Bay and its surrounding suburbs are a great mix of old and new properties with access to schools, university and transport making it a very popular area for families looking for those facilities. I have always had an interest in property – my wife and I are continuously upgrading our family home, with the next project being the renovation of our bathrooms. Playing cricket used to take up a lot of my time in the summer, bowling being my forte, but now, administering the game keeps me engaged with our community as the club president of Takapuna District Cricket Club since 2007. Listening to you and persevering to achieve the best result possible is my primary objective. My straight-talking style with clear communication will give you confidence that I'm someone who you can trust, and my actions will back that up. Give me a ring or call in for a chat.

Honest, Committed, Knowledgeable, Genuine, Excellent Communication

We had an excellent experience selling our rental property with Carl Howey from Barfoot and Thompson Mairangi Bay. From start to finish, Carl was highly professional, knowledgeable, responsive, honest and genuinely committed to helping us achieve the best possible outcome. He made the entire process smooth and stress-free, kept us informed every step of the way, and was always available to answer any questions we had. Carl’s attention to detail, excellent communication, and dedication to supporting us throughout the process went well above and beyond our expectations. We truly appreciated his honesty, hard work, and personal approach. 30 +years, we have dealt with many real estate agents and none have come close to the level of honest service, support and commitment we received from Carl. We would highly recommend Carl to anyone looking to buy or sell a property. An outstanding experience from beginning to end — thank you, Carl.

Exceptional agent, exceeds expectations

Carl is a professional through and through. He did his research, created a phenomenal marketing plan, helped with presentation, stepped in to meet contractors when I couldn't (I live in Perth, my property is in Auckland). Carl was available to chat at any hour, allaying my anxiety. He is a blessing and I am very grateful for his exceptional communication and being a friend throughout the process. I highly recommend Carl as, no doubt, the buyers do too. 10 star rating!

Great experience!

Carl did an excellent job throughout the whole process. He was understanding, patient, and always responded quickly to any questions we had. Nothing ever felt like too much trouble, and he made the experience as smooth as buying a house can be. We really appreciated his support and would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a great estate agent.

Really knowleadgable and very enthusiastic

Carl did an excellent job of running us through the sales process and the different options we could choose. He worked hard to get plenty of people through the door and we were impressed with the level of detail in our weekly vendor reports. Carl is really approachable and helps to keep everything understandable. I would highly recommend Carl to anyone wanting a super-engaged agent.

**5 Stars for Carl - The Ultimate House-Selling Machine!**

From the moment we met Carl, we knew we were in good hands! If there’s one thing Carl excels at, it’s communication. Whether you’re a prospective buyer or the seller (like us), Carl keeps you in the loop every step of the way. He has a knack for making you feel like you’re the only one that matters—and we’re pretty sure he could sell sand to a desert with how well he handles every situation. We recently sold our house at 31B John Court Street, and honestly, the whole experience was as smooth as silk. Carl didn’t just “communicate,” he practically held a conversation with every buyer who walked through the door. We’re convinced he must have been born with a headset and a clipboard in hand, because this guy was always on top of it! Carl was never too busy to take our calls, answer questions, or just reassure us when the process seemed overwhelming. He kept things simple and stress-free, which is a rare feat in the wild world of property sales. To top it all off, Carl was a total pro at balancing the needs of the buyers while making sure we, the sellers, were kept in the loop and confident through the entire process. If you're looking for a real estate agent who can juggle multiple offers, keep buyers engaged, and make you feel like the most important person in the room, Carl is your guy. We can't recommend him enough! *10/10 would sell with him again (but hopefully not too soon... we love our new place!)*
