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.

Well managed sale, achieved a good price.

Well managed sale, achieved a good price.

Harriet always responded promptly to emails. In retrospect, we should have applied for a LIM report before we put the house on the market, as there was an outstanding old consent issue that slowed down the sales process. Harriet assisted with encouragement in obtaining the required consent. She ensured that we got a fair and reasonable price for the house. Their advertising was successful, their judgement of the market seemed accurate ,and the tender process fair to buyer and seller.

Tom, Harriet and team have provided a friendly, professional service.

Leading us through the sales process, they have provided guidance on property preparation and advice on marketing strategy. Their recommendation to commission a builders report and LIM helped make it easier for potential buyers. Their estimate of property value aligned with the tenders we received, which was reassuring. They have been lovely to deal with, professional and courteous.

Grateful for Kylie!!!!!

Grateful for Kylie!!!!!

Man we first started our first home buyers journey in November 2024, so it’s been a long time coming!!! Couple of unsuccessful offers lead us to our new home that we are so proud of, and this wouldn’t have been possible without Kylie 🥰 we weren’t going to submit an offer because of the fear of it being too low and being rejected again but she nudged us in the right direction and gave us hope, so of course we had to stress her out and submit an offer literally 30mins before deadline 😂 she has been awesome, making us feel seen as one of many people who had walked in to the many home viewings at 19 Handyside Street! Very easy to talk too and everything just felt right. Her comms have been awesome, clear and consistent too 🥰 thank you for making us, two young Pacific Islander kids who a first time home buyers for both side of our families, feel at home!!!! If we were to ever sell, we would sure contact your real estate…. For Kylie in particular 😂

Tom & Harriet were highly professional and never pushy. They fitted around our family's needs - nothing was ever a problem. This meant we were able to sell our beloved house with minimal stress. Tom and Harriet's experience showed and they helped us feel confident about how we presented the property for a great outcome.
