Choosing the right real estate agent is about more than selecting someone to market your property. It is about having an experienced adviser, skilled negotiator and clear communicator beside you from the first conversation through to settlement.
I am a well-established residential and lifestyle salesperson with Bayleys, helping property owners throughout Hamilton, Cambridge and the wider Waikato achieve the best possible result from their sale. During more than 12 years in real estate, I have successfully marketed and sold everything from investment properties and first homes through to lifestyle blocks, development opportunities and multi-million-dollar residences.
My approach is straightforward: provide honest advice, create a strategy tailored to the individual property and work relentlessly on behalf of my clients.
No two homes or selling situations are the same. I take the time to understand what matters to each owner, then develop a marketing and sales campaign designed to attract the right buyers and create genuine competition. I am particularly experienced in repositioning properties that have struggled to sell and finding practical, outside-the-box solutions when a conventional approach is not producing results.
Strong negotiation is central to what I do. My role is not simply to secure a sale, but to protect my client’s interests, manage the details carefully and negotiate the strongest possible outcome. Throughout the campaign, I place a high value on clear communication, honest feedback and dependable follow-through. My clients should always understand what is happening, what buyers are saying and what our next move should be.
Before entering real estate, I spent more than a decade in property development, designing, building and managing significant residential and commercial projects. This experience gave me valuable knowledge of construction, project management, resource consents, property values, architectural design and development potential. As a qualified lawyer, I also bring a strong understanding of contracts, legislation and the importance of handling every transaction with care and precision.
Earlier in my career, I worked for 16 winters as a high-level ski instructor, coach and manager. That experience taught me discipline, patience, adaptability and how to perform calmly under pressure - qualities that continue to serve my real estate clients today.
I am proud to be part of Bayleys, New Zealand’s largest full-service real estate agency, which gives my clients access to premium marketing, an extensive national and international network and specialist expertise across all property sectors.
Although experience and results matter, I believe the way clients feel throughout the process matters just as much. My goal is to make selling as clear, well-managed and stress-free as possible while ensuring no opportunity is missed.
Outside of real estate, I live in Cambridge and enjoy spending time with my family and friends, travelling, cycling, playing golf and making the most of the outdoors. I am a proud member of Tieke Golf Club in Tamahere.
If you are considering selling, would like an honest assessment of your property or simply want to understand your options, I would be pleased to help.
