Purchas’ is an excellent name for a real estate professional, but Richard Purchas’ extent of knowledge and experience in helping buyers and sellers achieve their goals runs much deeper than his name alone.

Richard began his real estate career in 2001 at Harvey Coxon Real Estate in Havelock North and quickly became known for exceeding clients’ expectations, whether buying or selling. After a 15-year sabbatical, he has returned home to the village and looks forward to utilising his world of experience to once again provide exceptional real estate service in his home town.

Having left New Zealand to fulfil his dream of sailing around the world, Richard enjoyed a thriving sales career in the United States in luxury boat sales as well as real estate. His time in Omaha and Seattle has garnered him numerous sales awards including top listing agent in 2007 and he was in the top 1% of 600 agents winning a coveted ‘Outstanding Agent Award’.

Richard puts his sales success down to the simple truth that achieving outstanding results should not compromise honesty and integrity. Paying special attention to the details and listening to his clients are key to Richard. “Every property is unique and needs to be marketed in a special way. I take my cues from my sellers; they know their property best.”

Upon returning home, Richard had his choice of real estate brokerages and chose New Zealand Sotheby’s International Realty as the perfect fit. Without a doubt, the most professional company giving you the best result, and Richard is the real estate professional who will make sure you have the most exceptional experience.
