A look back at some of the homes I’ve had the pleasure of selling so far this year 🏡

Each one has been completely different, with its own story, its own challenges and, most importantly, people ready for their next chapter.

I’m very grateful to every vendor who has trusted me with their home this year, and to all the buyers I’ve met along the way.

There’s still plenty of 2026 to come. If a move has been on your mind, I’m always happy to have a chat about where things are at and what the next step could look like for you.

Interest rates are one of the biggest influences on the property market, but they're rarely the whole story.

Supply and demand, buyer confidence and the appeal of a particular suburb all play a part.

If you're wondering what today's market means for your next move, I'd be happy to help.

In this market, presentation really does matter.

Buyers have plenty of choice, so those little details can make a real difference to how a home feels when they first walk through the door.

That’s why I’m always there before an open home, fluffing the cushions, checking the garden, letting in the light and making sure everything feels welcoming and ready.

It’s all part of the service. When you sell with me, I’m hands-on with the details that help your home show at its best.

Some suburbs lose a little of their charm in winter. Mt Eden isn't one of them.

From cosy cafés and independent shops to weekend events and a real sense of community, it's one of those places that seems to become even more special at this time of year.

I'd love to know what you enjoy most about winter in Mt Eden 🤍

One thing that often surprises people is how quickly buyers make up their minds.

Before they've looked at the layout or started thinking about price, they're already getting a feel for the home.

It's usually the simple things that stick with them. A welcoming entrance, plenty of natural light, and a home that feels looked after can make a real difference.

Most people don't wake up one morning and decide to sell.

It's usually something that builds over time.

A home that once suited your family perfectly may no longer fit the way you live today. Or perhaps you've started wondering what the next chapter could look like.

If you've found yourself thinking about a move, even occasionally, it might be worth having a conversation about what's possible.

There's no obligation. Sometimes it's simply helpful to understand your options.
