Alison is a people person – she loves property and would say interior design is her most passionate interest, but it’s her place in the community which stirs her soul. She relates beautifully to others, listens to the needs of families with whom she’s working, and ends up counting many of them as friends. She also has many repeat clients who love her honest, calm and relaxed manner, as well as her perseverance when necessary and the fact that she’s simply always available.
Her goal in her work is to provide a service way beyond what clients expect, making a potentially stressful experience an enjoyable one with minimal disruption and an exciting end result. She has a deep-rooted desire to get it right for people, and therefore never loses her enthusiasm or willingness to work hard.
Born in the UK, Alison married there and together they literally sailed their way to New Zealand. Having worked mainly in the film industry, she then decided on a change in career around ’96 and hasn’t looked back. Her love of life and genuine approach allowed her to quickly find her feet in the Auckland real estate market. Having lived in Auckland for 20 years, in Remuera, Glendowie, and now Mission Bay, she and her family of four children proudly call New Zealand home.
Alison is supported by her husband, Robert Jackson-Mee, who has over 35 years experience in commercial photography advertising top international brands. He also has an in-depth knowledge of the building industry, is a licensed real estate salesperson, and having spent five years living in Hong Kong speaks pretty good Cantonese. Together they make a formidable team!
“In 2016 I decided after 14 successful years at Unlimited Potential that I would make a change to Ray White. However, after 2 years in the Bays I came to the conclusion that the Corporate style just wasn’t me. So I chose to ‘ go back to the future’ and re-join my lovely friends at UP....to be honest it felt like going home! The in-house design team do such a wonderful job of creating bespoke marketing solutions. I know the value of tailored solutions for each vendor. After all each property is unique. This together with hands on management and a team of experienced salespeople who meet three times per week to discuss in detail what we collectively need to do to create winning results for homeowners.”
