Consistency, commitment, and integrity are qualities which have elevated me to the highest level of personal success within the real estate industry over the past 36 years.
For many years I was involved in Real Estate Management but now enjoy listing and selling residential and lifestyle properties within the region. I took up the challenge of real estate after a distinguished 21 year career in the NZ Army. On my retirement in 1987 I held the appointment of Regimental Sergeant Major of Linton Army Camp. My discipline and leadership skills transferred well into the real estate world.
In 1997 I graduated from Massey University with a Diploma in Business Studies (endorsed in Real Estate). This qualification enabled me to gain Associate status within the Real Estate Institute of New Zealand (REINZ). I served for many years on the local REINZ Committee and as a Board Member on the Real Estate ITO. In 2009 I was elected by the local REINZ members to the position of REINZ Ambassador Palmerston North and spokesperson for the region, a position I still hold.
In 2022 I was admitted as a Fellow Member of the Real Estate Institute of New Zealand for my services to REINZ, which was a great honour. In November 2023 I was elected to the REINZ Board of Directors as the Director of Region 3 which covers Wellington, Wairarapa, Manawatu, Whanganui, New Plymouth and Hawkes Bay.
As an experienced professional I combine a wealth of knowledge with a caring, positive, and ethical attitude towards my clients which is recognised by the high level of personal referrals and repeat business I receive. Building a strong rapport with people from all walks of life on a basis of trust and fairness has resulted in hundreds of happy customers and numerous unsolicited testimonials.
Whether you are considering selling or buying a home, or a rental investment, my credentials speak for themselves. I will help you through the full process of property appraisal and marketing options available through the Professionals system, I will advise you on the best way to present your property for sale and give you a personal commitment and service second to none.
