Rotorua

I started at Inspire Property Management as a part-time property manager’s assistant but am proud to have worked up to becoming a full-time letting consultant and inspection manager, building on a more than 14-year career in property management here in Rotorua. From vetting clients, viewing and filling properties through to bringing in new managements and dealing with property maintenance, I have done it all!

 

Originally from Rotorua, I spent a number of years living in Auckland, where I ran my own business before moving to Ohakune to set up a ski lodge. 

 

I believe one of the essential facets of property management is a relationship built on frequent, open and reliable communication with both tenants and landlords.

In my 13 years of property management, I have seen many changes in the industry. These have been challenging, significantly so when rules have changed. This can be a stressful time for investors, but I believe, by managing properties effectively I can help alleviate some of this pressure for them. I take good care of tenants and treat them with a firm but fair hand; I believe more flies are caught with honey than vinegar.

I was a property manager in Whakatane for four years and Rotorua for nine, and have a background in business management. As someone who has owned my own home, rented my property and been a tenant myself, I have seen all sides of the business, which only furthers my ability to understand the needs of investors.

My hobbies include diving, flying my plane, water and snow skiing, home decoration and building and, in my spare time, I love to do cryptic crosswords.
