I began my real estate career in 1991 as a salesperson and took up the opportunity to become one of the owners of the Tawa Harcourts franchise in 1996. Our philosophy for the business from day one was a team approach to both listing or selling, which means every client has the whole office working for them. Our team has consistently sold the most homes in Tawa every year and over the past 10 years we have also developed a property management division within the business which manages over 200 properties for our landlords.

For me the most rewarding aspect of real estate is helping people achieve their property ownership goals, whether they are buying, selling or investing. My aim has always been to create clients for life, and having been in the business so long, I am now happy to be selling properties to the children of my early clients! I am proud to own a business that gives so much back to the community through sponsorship of numerous sporting clubs, community groups and schools and grants through the Harcourts Foundation.

On a personal note, I’ve been married to my wife Jan since 1984 and we’ve enjoyed living in Tawa since 1990. It proved a great community to raise our three children who all attended the local schools and are now young adults, starting their own families. In my spare time I’m actively involved in the local squash club as well as being a serious rugby spectator in the winter. In summer I dust of my mountain bike and enjoy getting away in our campervan to hopefully indulge in a spot of fishing.
