About Tom

I have been a consistently top-selling agent since 2008 but my love of real estate is virtually lifelong. I grew up in a suburb renowned for its character homes, Mount Victoria, and as a qualified builder I used to renovate my own houses. This hands-on knowledge and experience inspired me to sell other people’s homes with the same passion — one that I can balance with both practicality and professionalism. I have built up a large, diverse network of clients by successfully marketing houses, apartments and investment properties Wellington-wide. Whether buying or selling, you can have confidence in me when making your next real estate move. With two young children, a background in childcare and a love of community, my focus is on client care. Having grown up on a farm, I know real estate means more than just having a roof over your head. It’s often our biggest asset — and one that can have a huge impact on the quality of our lives. That’s why I work tirelessly to optimise a home’s presentation to buyers, update sellers on every step of the process so they feel assured and comfortable with the progress, and negotiate every sale as if it was my own home I was selling. I will always advocate for my vendors’ best interests while helping buyers to make the best choices. We love our work so much we’re literally married to it. As well as being husband and wife, proud parents of Tui and Ruby, and happy residents of Island Bay, we are part-owners of Lowe & Co. It is Wellington’s most progressive agency and we are among its top performing agents. Our close relationship, complementary skills and years of experience guarantee clients a level of service and expertise that’s second-to-none. Testament to this is the fact that repeat business and referrals account for more than half of our sales! We pride ourselves on being honest, hard-working and hard to beat.

Harriet and Tom always kept me in the loop. They were very informative and knew the market well. I feel like they have become friends.

Fantastic communication, steady guidance, and an excellent result in a tough market.

Team Culy were fantastic to work with. As first-time sellers, we really appreciated their clear communication, calm guidance and professionalism throughout the whole process. They were always easy to reach when we needed them, kept us well informed, and helped us stay steady whenever the inevitable doubts or nerves crept in. Their market knowledge was excellent, especially in what felt like a tough and uncertain market. They kept our spirits up, gave practical advice, and worked hard to keep momentum going right through to the end. They were organised, punctual, on time with everything they promised, and handled the process with real care. We were really happy with the final result and would absolutely use Team Culy again.

Kylie is an absolute star!

Kylie is an absolute star!

Working with Kylie has been an absolute pleasure and she has been so supportive through the whole process. As a first home buyer I had nervousness around understanding the process and ensuring I have covered my due diligence. She has been quick to respond all questions and concerns and has truly been the star in making this a smooth process. Thank you so much!

Excellent communication and everyone was kept in the loop using WhatsApp

Excellent communication and everyone was kept in the loop using WhatsApp

From my first decision to sell my property to finding a buyer that offered a price I was happy with was very stress free. All of the team at Lowe and Co Wellington were very professional and the process was easy. It didn’t take long to find a buyer because they all have many contacts to call on. Everything can be sorted on line these days and as I live in a different town from the property I was selling it made life simple. Thank you to all involved at Lowe and Co Wellington and I highly recommend this company for your next sale or purchase.
