In 2020 I moved to Real Estate after working as a frontline police officer for 14 years, and I've loved working with so many great clients and customers since then. It's been amazing able to help people sell their homes and offer value for money.

In 2020 I moved to Real Estate after working as a frontline police officer for 14 years, and I've loved working with so many great clients and customers since then. It's been amazing being able to help young people into their first home, and vendors achieve results above their expectations. I’ve lived in Canterbury all my life, and remember what it was like purchasing my first property back in 2003.

I also remember the feeling of uncertainty I experienced the first time I sold a property and know the impact a good salesperson can make in guiding clients through the sales process. I really believe in the Tall Poppy model and look forward to providing great service to my clients, without the traditional hefty fee.

I’ve worked in a variety of industries over the years with a broad range of people, from the freezing works, to hospitality and as a police officer. I’m competitive by nature, having represented Canterbury in Softball, and don’t shy away from a hard day’s work. I am familiar with relating to a wide range of people and my police background has helped me develop a breadth of soft skills: tough negotiation, engaging people in dialogue, and getting to the heart of determining what people really want and what their motivations are.

The service I provide is friendly and unique, and as many past clients have mentioned I am "not the stereotypical real estate agent.I really enjoy the grind and am working hard to build my business and create long lasting relationships in the process. In my spare time you will see me walking our fur baby at the closest dog park and out spending time with family and friends at cafes and restaurants. A fun fact about me - I am a foodie at heart and have organised a lot of travel over the last few years around food. If you don’t want to talk property, lets talk food and travel! I look forward to sitting down over a coffee with you to discuss how we can turn better work stories into successful sales stories.

Testimonials

Manisha

""Kristian was absolutely wonderful to deal with. I was new to the property game and was often discouraged when attending open homes due to the agents that were presenting them. I think his personality definitely helped my decision to put in an offer on the property, as he followed up regularly, answered any questions, if he didn't know the answer, he went back and asked the vendors. There were a few hiccups with my finance and he was super positive and helpful throughout that and would check in to see if everything was moving forward. Kristian went above his duties and offered to lend me a lawnmower for when I moved in and everything! Sometimes it can be a bit daunting because you know that the agent is working for the seller and not you but he didn't make it feel this way at all and I found the whole process to be smooth and he was extremely detailed with his paperwork and explanations. Thank you Kristian for being so accommodating, I really hope you go far in your real estate career as you definitely have the right attitude and people skills for it.""

""We 100% Highly Recommend Kristian and found him to be on the ball through the whole process of selling our rental property. When dealing with us and buyers he did this in a very considerate, trustworthy and honest way, along with treating our tenants with respect. His communication with us was awesome making selling the property a lot easier. Going with Tall Poppy we knew what the fees would be with NO hidden costs!""
