I am an experienced salesperson who cares. Attracting the best buyers and negotiating great prices are my greatest skills.

I am so delighted to be back working with Barfoot & Thompson having worked with the Company for just over 20 years in Auckland before moving to the Bay of Plenty. It’s the family culture, excellent systems and the size and power of the network that brings something exceptional to sellers, buyers and us as salespeople.

I’ve sold over 350 properties, often at exceptional prices well above clients’ expectations, and I’m about ensuring clients are delighted with their final result. All achieved by friendly hard work, honesty, integrity and enthusiasm.

I grew up on an 88-hectare farm at Stanway, north of Feilding in the Manawatu and have worked on some iconic sheep & beef properties and love the rural and lifestyle real estate space.

Through Massey University I’ve completed two diplomas in Business Studies: Real Estate and Dispute Resolution, and I’m an associate of the Real Estate Institute of New Zealand (AREINZ), which add to my skills and experience.

Carol and I currently live on a lifestyle property in the Matata Hills, not far from a bunch of grandkids at Te Puke.

I look forward to being of service to you!

Testimonials

Janice & Don Carter

"Robert is just the sort of Real Estate Agent you want - Knowledgeable, very helpful, no question is too small or difficult, friendly, understanding. We would definitely use Robert as our agent again. He gave us all the time we needed to research the property and yet was able to move like lightning when things had to be accomplished quickly. He was able to help us secure the property he knew we really wanted and walked along side us through the stress of buying and selling a house. Robert is an agent we can highly recommend."

John & Joyce Batten

"We first had dealings with Robert when viewing a property that had attracted our interest. We asked the questions and felt satisfied we got the truthful answers. No pressure was put on us by him. Due to a drastic change in our circumstances Robert helped us through a very stressful period. This was done not by phone calls or email, but by personal visits, taking up much of his (I’m sure) work time and creating extra travel for him to meet with us. He guided us expertly through our found situation, resolving the problems we had created. We would recommend his caring expertise and service to any future client, and yes we would certainly use his services again."
