About Gareth

Gareth Heard is an award-winning real estate professional known for running structured, high-performance sales campaigns across Levin, Waitārere Beach and the wider Horowhenua region. His business is built on trust, transparency and execution — not guesswork. With nearly 9 years in real estate and more than 18 years in residential construction, Gareth brings a depth of practical property knowledge that most agents simply do not have. He understands how homes are built, how they present, and where buyers see risk or value. That insight allows him to position properties strategically, pre-empt objections and negotiate from a position of strength. Gareth does not “list and hope.” He runs campaigns. Every property is treated as a project with a clear plan. From the appraisal stage, vendors are given honest, evidence-based advice about price positioning, market conditions and buyer behaviour. Once on the market, each campaign is supported by premium marketing tools — high-resolution photography, cinematic video, 3D Matterport virtual tours with laser measurement, floorplans, social media campaigns and database distribution. Buyers are often walking through the home virtually before they ever book a viewing, increasing enquiry quality and reducing wasted inspections. His database includes over 2,000 contacts, and he actively collaborates across the Professionals network and the wider region. Properties are exposed locally, nationally and internationally. Vendors receive structured weekly feedback, clear reporting and regular strategy reviews so they always know exactly where they stand. Negotiation is where Gareth excels. He understands that selling is not about chasing signatures — it is about creating leverage. By managing information, timing and competition carefully, he works to ensure vendors retain control and buyers engage seriously. Throughout his career, Gareth has achieved multiple regional and national awards, including Rookie of the Year, Top Residential Salesperson rankings and consistent Millionaire Club recognition. However, he believes awards are a by-product of process. The real focus is delivering outcomes that protect his clients’ financial position. Ranked in RateMyAgent Top 5% Nationwide (3 badges acquired) - RateMyAgent Price Expert - RateMyAgent Trusted Agent - RateMyAgent Top 20% Nationwide His philosophy is simple: Love people. Use money. Never get it backwards. Real estate is emotional. The result is financial. If you are looking for premium presentation, straight advice and a disciplined strategy designed to maximise your position in the market, Gareth Heard is ready to represent you.

Just a genuine straight up guy who will give his all for your property!

Specifically chose Gareth due to his excellent reputation and local knowledge. He did not disappoint and was communicative and respectful during open homes, specific booked viewings and some really challenging personal changes of circumstances. Highly recommended by myself.

Outstanding service from a true local

If you're buying or selling in Waitarere, Gareth Heard is the salesperson you want by your side. As a local resident, Gareth is deeply connected to the community and has a strong understanding of the local property market and the wider area. He is honest, approachable, and straightforward, always willing to answer questions and provide helpful advice whenever needed. What impressed us most was Gareth’s dedication and flexibility. Because he lives locally, he was happy to arrange property viewings after hours, which proved invaluable and ultimately helped us secure the sale. We would not hesitate to recommend Gareth to anyone seeking a knowledgeable, hardworking, and genuine real estate professional in Waitarere.
