About Sam

Sam is an experienced property expert who knows what it’s like to walk in your shoes. But it’s not just what Sam does in real estate; it’s how and why she does it. Breaking with sales tradition, her first interest is the person in front of her. She has a way of making people feel seen while understanding the path that brought them to her — and where they want to go. Sam has a background in international travel, working within first and business class for two of the best, Air New Zealand and Qantas. The spirit of excellence continued into property and Airbnb management, from which sales became a natural progression. Over the years, she’s shown what success looks like — blending market insights, clear communication, and results that echo throughout the Canterbury region. Arizto’s advanced tech is the wind beneath Sam’s wings, allowing her to guide clients through a headache-free process. For homeowners and first-home buyers especially, her approach is grounded and simplified, delivering the experience and care people came for. And the loyalty and friendships that develop in return is something she wouldn’t trade for the world. With a long history tied to Methven, Sam and her husband built their lives here together and simply put, love the place and the community. Around town, Sam cherishes family time with their son Patrick and fur babies, Wilson a Kelpie, and Elsie a West Highland Terrier, hiking in the hills, enjoying the squash courts, or pitching in on a local committee. She’s the tried-and-true choice for buying or selling in Mid Canterbury, with a refreshing way of doing things that show exactly why the locals love her.

An excellent professional performance throughout the purchase.

Sam was very helpful by responding in a timely manner to any of our questions, and there were plenty. She had lots of instant answers and went the extra mile to put our minds at rest through the stresses that naturally occur during this process. I highly commend her professional approach to the Real Estate profession.

Above and beyond!

Above and beyond!

We couldn’t recommend Sam and Andy highly enough! From start to finish, they went above and beyond to make the entire process as smooth and stress-free as possible. Their communication was faultless, they were incredibly proactive, knowledgeable and professional, while always being friendly, approachable and genuinely supportive. We always felt kept in the loop and knew we were in safe hands. What really stood out was the care and effort they put into everything. Nothing ever felt like too much trouble, and they consistently went the extra mile to get the best possible outcome for us. We were incredibly lucky to have Sam and Andy by our side throughout the process. They are not only fantastic at what they do, but genuinely wonderful people too. We’re so grateful for everything they have done and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to anyone looking for exceptional real estate agents! The absolute A team! Thank you both so much! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

A relaxed but totally supportive and informed experience that we recommend for anyone for anyone

A relaxed but totally supportive and informed experience that we recommend for anyone for anyone

Sam and Andy (the Gormans) invariably responded without delay throughout the whole process and on numerous occasions called to offer assistance or pass information and advice. Their market and procedural knowledge was strong and we found their relaxed, amiable approach to every aspect of the process, very appealing and reassuring. They maintained their professional responsibilities to the vendors at all times and quickly established an enjoyable rapport between us all. Communications were relaxed. In hindsight there is nothing we would suggest to improve our experience or their performance. We recommend the services of Sam and Andy to any prospective vendors or purchasers. We enjoyed their company.

Sam and Andy made a difficult journey so much easier with their unwavering support.

Sam and Andy made a difficult journey so much easier with their unwavering support.

We can't recommend Sam and Andy highly enough. From the very beginning, they have been incredibly patient, understanding, and supportive throughout what has been an extremely difficult journey for our family. We faced many unexpected hurdles due to issues with the builders, which put us in a very unfortunate and stressful situation. Despite the setbacks and uncertainty, Sam and Andy never gave up on us. They were always there to offer guidance, reassurance, and honest advice, keeping us informed every step of the way. Their professionalism, kindness, and genuine care made such a difference during one of the most challenging times we've experienced. We never felt like just another client, they truly cared about helping us achieve the best possible outcome. Thank you both for your patience, encouragement, and unwavering support. We are so grateful for everything you've done.

Me and my partner found it really easy dealing with Sam and Andy. They understood our needs and helped us into our first home. They were very friendly to deal with, always quick to respond and had all the information we needed.
