Since joining the industry in 2005 Karl has sold over $1 billion dollars of country property throughout the diverse, picturesque and productive North Waikato and Thames Valley regions.

Karl’s success is the result of a sincere interest in country property and the ability to think laterally on behalf of his clients, employing his broad knowledge and wide experience to consistently achieve excellent results whatever the market conditions. Karl’s marketing background enhances the service he offers. His upfront and honest manner combined with a good-natured approach and genuine enjoyment of people makes for sound client relationships.

The Davis family lives in Ngatea, near the area where Karl grew up on a dairy farm. Prior to finding his niche in country real estate Karl gained a Bachelor of Leisure Studies degree with the focus on marketing and computer science, and worked for Microsoft as an engineer, sales manager and trainer. Karl supports schools and sports clubs in his regions and his self-run annual Charity Golf Tournament has raised over $219,000 for The Bayleys Foundation, New Zealand Guide Dog Services, Make a Wish Foundation and local non-profit organisations. He has played rugby for Hauraki North Rugby Club for over 25 years and has enjoyed coaching both youth rugby and hockey.

Testimonials

Mizen | Miranda

"I have no hesitation in recommending Karl and his team at Bayleys to sell your property. Karl is very professional, a skilled realtor and very personable. His local knowledge and communication is invaluable. We were well informed about the Deadline sale process and our weekly meetings and booklets kept us informed about interested parties and how things were progressing. In all my dealings with Karl he has achieved over and above my expectations. It really was a team effort. Many thanks to all."

"When it came to selling our lifestyle block, there was no-one else we would want representing us than Karl and Lee from Bayleys.  Their professionalism is next level, while their down-to-earth approach makes the entire process easy, comfortable and as stress-free as possible. With an unprecedented amount of interest in our property, Karl and Lee worked tirelessly to make sure all potential buyers were contacted and, when we got a pre-auction offer, worked to ensure all interested parties were there on the day. The auction went perfectly, giving us the result we wanted.  I can't recommend the Bayleys team highly enough."
