About Kristian

After 14 years as a frontline police officer, I made the move into real estate in 2020, bringing with me a strong foundation in trust, negotiation, and people skills. Since then, I have helped sell over 70 properties across Christchurch and the wider Canterbury region, guiding buyers and sellers through what is often one of the biggest decisions of their lives. I am especially passionate about helping first home buyers take that important first step, as well as supporting vendors to achieve results that often exceed expectations. Having lived in Canterbury my entire life, and having bought my first property in 2003, I understand the uncertainty that can come with both buying and selling. That firsthand experience drives my belief in clear advice, honest communication, and a sales process that feels supportive rather than overwhelming. I am frequently trusted with properties that have proven challenging to sell. These campaigns sometimes require patience, creativity, and persistence, qualities I am known for. I focus on getting the fundamentals right, positioning property correctly, and staying committed until the right result is achieved, without charging the traditional hefty fees. My career has spanned a wide range of industries, including hospitality, the freezing works, and policing. This background allows me to relate easily to people from all walks of life. I am competitive by nature, having represented Canterbury in softball, and I do not shy away from hard work. My policing background sharpened my ability to negotiate under pressure, engage openly, and quickly understand what truly motivates people. Clients often tell me I am not the stereotypical real estate agent. My approach is friendly, straightforward, and focused on long term relationships rather than quick wins. I enjoy the grind, take pride in my work, and am committed to building a reputation based on results and trust. Outside of real estate, you will usually find me walking our dog at the local park or enjoying time with family and friends at cafes and restaurants around the city. I am a genuine foodie at heart and have planned much of my recent travel around great food experiences. If property is not your first topic of choice, I am always happy to talk food and travel over a coffee. I look forward to meeting with you and showing how experience, honesty, and hard work can turn conversations into successful sales stories.

Down-to-earth, dedicated, & genuinely hardworking agent committed to achieving best outcome for all

Kristian is a down-to-earth, dedicated, and genuinely hardworking agent. There is no shortage of time, effort, or commitment that he is willing to invest to achieve the best possible outcome for everyone involved. As our listing agent, I felt completely supported throughout the process and always knew that Kristian was working tirelessly in our corner. What also stood out to me was the way he approached buyers. He genuinely cares about people and wants everyone involved to have a positive experience, not just the vendor. What makes Kristian different is that his support doesn't stop once your property is sold. He has continued to be a sounding board, a source of advice, and someone willing to share his knowledge as we're navigating the buying side of the process. He celebrates your wins with you, but at the same time you know he'll be just as excited for a buyer who has found the right home. Kristian goes above and beyond what I would normally expect from an agent. He doesn't just provide a service, he builds relationships. His communication, honesty, and genuine investment in our journey gave me a huge amount of confidence, and I'm incredibly grateful to have had him by my side throughout this process. In an industry where it can be difficult to know who to trust, Kristian stands out because he genuinely cares about people, not just transactions. He is the kind of agent who will celebrate your success as a vendor, take the time to help you as a buyer, and remain invested long after the contract is signed. That level of care is hard to come by and is worth it's weight in gold.

Exceptional service and support from start to finish.

Kristian has been absolutely exceptional throughout the sale of our home. His communication was clear, consistent, and he made every step of the process feel effortless. He brings a mix of knowledge, professionalism and approachability, along with a genuine reassuring confidence that makes you feel fully supported from start to finish. Kristian guided the entire campaign with a calm presence, care and kindness, great momentum and real expertise. We are incredibly grateful for everything he did and have told him more than once how amazing he is at his job, and the results speak for themselves as our property went from listed to unconditional in just 38 days. If you’re looking for an agent who delivers results, communicates brilliantly and genuinely cares, Kristian is the one. We couldn’t recommend him more highly.

Great service from start to finish.

We were very pleased with Kristian's efforts in selling our house. Kristian worked hard throughout the entire process and was always motivated to get the best result for us. Great communication — we were kept in the loop at every stage and never left wondering what was happening next. Our sale wasn't straightforward, and there were some tricky aspects to navigate, but he handled these with professionalism and skill, always finding a way forward to obtain the best result for us. Thanks to his efforts and knowledge of the industry, we achieved an outcome we were genuinely happy with. We'd highly recommend Kristian to anyone looking to buy or sell.
