Selling or purchasing a home can be one of the biggest decisions you've ever made. You are entrusting a stranger with one of your most valuable assets and can only hope that they have the appropriate priorities, goals, and foresight to achieve your objectives. So how does this affect your choice of real estate agent? Well it means you don't want someone who cuts corners. You don't want someone who just sees you as their next sale. You want the best. You want someone who understands the market inside and out, and someone with the experience to make the right calls for the best result. That's where I come in. I'm no stranger to the long hours and hard work necessary to achieve the best result for my clients. Prior to real estate, I ran a successful business for over 24 years within the construction industry in Auckland. I've worked with a large amount of Auckland houses and I'm experienced with evaluating the various strengths of every house I sell. This allows my creative team to construct a custom marketing strategy for your home, giving it the competitive edge that it needs in this challenging housing market. In addition, I treat every new client and property with the same respect, honesty and integrity that have consistently founded every success

Jen Anderson comes from a professional background and has lived locally on the North Shore for over 25 years. Jen is married to Shane and together they have raised four boys, while running separate businesses. With a high level of experience, she understands the importance of a professional approach, of goal-setting, enthusiasm, hard work and perseverance in order to succeed, and of encouraging others to do the same.

Jen has bought and sold her own properties since age 21, and has continued to develop her interest in property alongside Shane. Together they have tackled projects involving do-uppers, bare sections, a rural subdivision, a house relocation and rebuild, rentals coastal locations, a shell to complete and a new build.

More recently, Jen has worked closely with Shane in real estate sales, bringing her passion for creative marketing, home presentation and her own personal touch into the partnership. Together Jen and Shane have worked tirelessly, to achieve top prices for home owners, and can boast numerous street records. They are both committed to pursuing the best options for their clients, marketing widely across multi-media, social and mass media platforms, and making the most of Barfoot & Thompson's unequalled power of reach. For this reason, both Shane and Jen are successful team players, having built longstanding relationships and wide connections with other members of Barfoot & Thompson's sales team, across their many branches.

Jen is known for her attention to detail, creative writing skills, genuine interest in people from all walks of life, and her determination to 'go the extra mile' for her clients. Jen and Shane love to combine their giftings, and work hard together to help you achieve your dreams of maximising and selling your valuable lifestyle, coastal or residential property.

Some Testimonials-

As well as being easy to work with over a few months, one of the key success factors and strengths that stood out with Shane and Jen was super-strong marketing and continually lifting the presentation. The marketing focus with them is super-strong to put your house on point, targeted to the right audience and continually looking to lift it's profile or trying different avenues. Presentation really matters and with plenty of ideas they continue, even after listing to look for little improvements, tweaking little things to maximise the presentation and finally the result.

Shane and Jen were excellent salespeople and we were so glad we chose them. Their knowledge of the area and communication was excellent and their attention to detail in marketing and staging the house was far beyond what I think other real estate salespeople would do. Their good work is what sold the house so quickly. If ever I do buy another house, Shane and Jen will be the first real estate salespeople I will call and I will highly recommend them to family and friends. Its been a pleasure working with you both.

I just wanted to email you to let you know directly, how impressed I’ve been with Jen and Shane Anderson as I feel they deserve the recognition. I would not do this normally, but I was blown away with them and the result with my house demonstrates their amazing support and professionalism. Jen and Shane went the extra mile for me. They instilled trust in me, that my house was in good experienced hands. I felt supported by them both throughout the whole journey, and we have formed a solid friendship from the experience. Their assessment and guidance about how to get the best possible result was amazing. Also their constant caring communication was so helpful and supportive. We got the best possible financial benefit after all their emotional and practical guidance in preparing the house for auction. I think you get the message of how I feel. Words cannot fully express my gratitude. I will always recommend them to anyone as well as Barfoot &Thompson.

Kept his Promise--Having bought and sold properties previously, I really wanted an salesperson who wasn’t going to switch persona once signed up and put pressure on pre and during auction. When I met Shane I believed he was honourable and he demonstrated this throughout our engagement.He went beyond my expectations on advice and recommendations for sale prep, as well as respecting my wishes when deciding on finer auction details. He was consistent and supportive right to completion.

"After almost 40 years living in a villa on a large section in Mt Albert, my wife and I decided it was time to move into a brand new, low maintenance home.Having been involved in subdivisional infrastructure work, we decided that a new build ticked most boxes, and started our search for a three bedroomed house in our chosen area.We found a suitable house on TradeMe, and contacted the agent, Shane Anderson, of Barfoot & Thompson.After dealing with Agents from other agencies, with mostly negative results, dealing with Shane was a breath of fresh air. Here was an agent who was enthusiastic and energetic, and not only did we decide to purchase the house from him, but we also engaged hime to sell our old house in Mt Albert, which he did (so). He was in constant contact with us throughout the whole process, and nothing was too much for him. Thanks to Shane the whole exercise was relatively stress free.Since our shift to the new home, Shane has been in regular contact with us, and often pops in for a chat to find out how we are going and if there are any problems that need sorting out.I would have no hesitation in recommending Shane to anyone wanting the services of a first class real estate agent."

We initially tried to sell our property privately because of some very unpleasant dealings with other real estate agents in the past. After 3 weeks of open homes and no leads, we discovered Shane selling a house up the road. We were impressed with his direct, honest approach. He had our place on the market 2 days after we signed him up, with a beautifully crafted ad. He reached out to the Barfoot's network and found a buyer through another agent - something I know a lot of listing agents try to avoid because it cuts their commission. It was sold after 10 days on the market for an exceptional price. Shane put us first every step of the way. It was a real pleasure having him sell our house."
