Pat started her real estate sales career in 2005 in Remuera as she had returned to the suburb in 2001 after spending some years in Takapuna and Milford renovating her properties.
With 19 years-worth of property selling experience, Pat is straight-talking and has the ability to explain the process to provide a stress-free and successful outcome by keeping clients informed every step of the way. Always enthusiastic, friendly and helpful, she will go above and beyond what is expected of a real estate agent to offer the best service possible to both buyers and sellers.
After buying her first unit in Ellerslie at the age of 22, Pat has enjoyed many years buying and renovating her own properties throughout Auckland, doing most of the work herself. There’s nothing like having hands-on experience to relate to buyers and sellers, especially first home buyers who want to add value, helping them every step of the process with researching and purchasing what is often their biggest financial decision.
At the other end of the spectrum, with many seniors moving to retirement homes or downsizing, Pat has supported them greatly when selling and moving during this often very stressful time in their lives. Going the extra mile is natural for Pat as client satisfaction is her priority.
Prior to selling real estate, Pat spent 30 years working in insurance which provided excellent grounding in contracts and negotiations. Pat has also built up a team of trusted tradespeople and resources to assist property owners prepare for the sale of their homes and reach the best possible price outcome.
Pat has been part of Ray White Ellerslie & Mt Wellington, a family-owned office within Auckland’s largest real estate agency for 17 years. Her patience, understanding, knowledge and relationship management has resulted in her selling the same home up to 4 times over those 17 years.
Pat lived in Malaysia and England before coming to Auckland in her teens and has seen the city grow over that time into a vibrant cosmopolitan centre with a diversity reflected in the cuisine, festivals, arts and music and with many lifestyle options to choose from within New Zealand’s largest city.
