About Dermot

The Unitary Plan Man ® With my 25 years in the real estate business, I have completed hundreds of property transactions and have built up a wealth of knowledge about the Auckland property market. A multi-faceted understanding of this sometimes complex process, has earned me an impressive track record and the confidence of my clients. While working in the private sector, I developed a particular interest in the Auckland Unitary Plan. If you are looking to develop the potential of your property, I can help. I have exceptional knowledge in what is required. Prior to real estate I spent time building skills in the private sector. I co-founded and ran a company across two countries for fifteen years and during this time I spent three years as President of The New Zealand Direct Selling Association. Property is my passion and I am excited to be in my tenth year with Barfoot & Thompson. "It's the ultimate luxury to combine passion and contribution, it's also a very clear path to happiness." Sheryl Sandberg You’ll find me at Barfoot & Thompson Remuera branch. Call me, email me or call into the office for a chat.

Thank you, Dermot and Sarah,for your help and consideration while marketing and selling my property. The professional and detailed attention to the Tender Process was much appreciated and achieved a good variety of prospective buyers' offers to consider.

Excellent communicator with meticulous attention to detail who achieves results in a tricky market.

Dermot made a stressful time in an unpredictable market as easy as possible, exceeding my expectations in every aspect of the process. The marketing was outstanding. The presentation of the property was better than I could have imagined, and our open homes were very well attended. His clear, reliable communication and in-depth, up-to-date knowledge of the Auckland market meant he managed expectations honestly and thoughtfully. When negotiations appeared to have reached a standstill, Dermot's greatest strength became evident. He worked tirelessly to achieve an outcome both vendor and purchaser were happy with. His ability to navigate difficult negotiations while remaining calm, confident and focused was exceptional. I was also conscious of the outstanding work behind the scenes from his campaign manager, Sarah, and the wider Barfoot & Thompson Remuera team, whose support throughout the campaign was invaluable. I would not hesitate to recommend Dermot and his team to anyone looking for an exceptional real estate agent.

Dermot is honest, straightforward, and highly responsive—nothing was ever an issue.

Dermot was an absolute pleasure to work with throughout our sale. He is straightforward, honest, and communicates clearly, which made the entire process feel smooth and stress-free. He was incredibly responsive, and nothing ever felt like an issue - no matter the question or request, he handled everything promptly and professionally. We really valued his practical approach and transparency, which gave us confidence in every decision we made. Dermot made what could have been a complex process feel easy and well-managed. We would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable and trustworthy real estate agent, especially for those juggling the realities and pressures of selling a home with young kids in the mix.

Helpful, resourceful and pleasant at a stressful time

Helpful, resourceful and pleasant at a stressful time

Both Dermot and Sarah were responsive to my needs. They appeared to work well together to ensure the property was presented as well as could be expected . They were both very pleasant but not too sales talky orientated . I looked to them for advice and they gave good solid advice knowing the market in the area well. I went to the market with a realistic value of what the property is worth in the current market and got a pre auction sale.
