Make it Rain! - Team Rainmaker

Well known for his colourful identity as The Rainmaker Rain Diao joined Maguires One Team in early 2020. Rain has been getting results for his clients in the Auckland real estate marketplaces for over 6 years. In that time, he has been frequently acknowledged by vendors and buyers alike for his professionalism, sincerity and high-energy drive to succeed. Rain has a huge depth of knowledge and his area of focus is the Eastern Bays.

Growing up in China in a property development family, Rain came to New Zealand as a teenager and is multilingual in English, Mandarin, Cantonese and Hakkanese – a useful skill when dealing with a diversity of clients. Rain has a BCA from Auckland University and after graduating worked for almost four years as a Chartered accountant for Fletcher Building Products in the Laminex Group.

The gregarious Rain is passionate about his work and connects with people quickly, establishing rapport. This has engendered huge loyalty and trust with a high degree of repeat and referral business from those he deals with.

His real estate career is punctuated with achievement and results borne out of excellent negotiating expertise, a courage to push the envelope in his marketing campaigns and a great love of people. His former work as an accountant also comes in handy when a real estate deal requires analytical skills and a focus on the details of process and compliance.

With a young family, Rain loves being a Dad and involves himself in local community initiatives that enhance the residents’ lifestyle. He would welcome more time to play golf but his busy schedule with real estate and family makes this a challenge for now.

If you’re looking to hire an optimistic, engaging, experienced agent then – make it Rain.

Testimonials

"Dear Rain, I wanted to thank both of you for an excellent result in the April 2016 auction of our block of 4 flats. After many years of property attention through the B&T Panmure Rental Office, I wanted to understand the potential market value and strategies for a quick sale. I had not been familiar with yourself and Jessie prior to asking your manager Chris Swann for advice. He clearly pointed me in your direction and you did not disappoint with your advice to "go to auction" but also in the manner in which you maintained communication throughout the entire process from setting up the listing, to advising on missing details in my files, to gauging market expectations from the real estate community but even more important from potential buyers. You steered me through the first opportunistic proposal prior to auction and assured me of better results to come. I was somewhat skeptical but held my nerve. But then I was clearly impressed by the numbers of potential buyers you presented and it showed that you are well trusted amongst your peers and even better connected amongst the local and international investor community. You left nothing to chance and I am grateful for what you have achieved. The results support your nickname "The Rainmaker" and I wish I had known you earlier when I still had a larger property portfolio. All the best for your future endeavours; your clients can be rest assured of the best advice and results in the Auckland real estate market. Max Traeger - Managing Director of Tranzfer Ltd"
""The Best agents ever!! I sold a few houses with a few other agents before I came across Rain and Jessie to sell our property on Penrose Road, Mt Wellington. During the entire process, I was impressed by their professionalism and constant communication about the selling process. I will definitely keep in contact and use them again in the future."
