When it comes to selling your home – one of your biggest assets – you want to know you’re in safe, experienced, and proactive hands. That’s where I come in.
I’ve been with EVES Papamoa for almost 14 years and consistently rank in the top tier of salespeople across the entire network. From first homes to family baches, investment properties to beachfront stunners, I’ve helped more than 400 families move on – and move forward.
My journey in real estate began when my twin boys were just three years old. Fast forward to today and they’re seventeen. The market has shifted plenty over the years, but my love for the job hasn’t. I still get a buzz from helping people step into their next chapter, and I’m known for straight talking advice, smart strategy, and genuine client care.
Behind every great agent is a great team. I’m backed by Sade, my powerhouse Production Assistant of seven years, who keeps everything running like a well oiled machine – so your campaign is slick, seamless, and stress free.
I also work closely alongside a number of other salespeople within our EVES network who speak a range of languages, including Punjabi, Hindi, and Mandarin. This means your property benefits from wider buyer reach and culturally attuned communication, helping buyers and sellers connect with confidence and move through the process in a way that feels familiar and respectful to them.
I’ve marketed and negotiated through every kind of market cycle. Auctions, priced campaigns, first home buyers, investors – I’ve done the lot. What stays constant is clear, honest communication. You’ll always know where things stand and what the next smart move is, without the guesswork.
If you’re thinking about selling near the beach, local schools, village shops, cafés, or coastal walkways, you want someone who knows Papamoa like the back of their hand and knows how to create momentum in today’s market.
Let’s have a proper chat about your plans and what your property could really achieve.
Your next move starts here – give me a call and let’s make it happen.
The Secret Garden
Step through the gates and the world changes. The noise drops away, the palms rise up around you, and suddenly you’re standing in what feels like a private slice of Bali, right here in Papamoa Beach. This is not your standard backyard. This is a resort style sanctuary, lovingly curated over the past four years to create total privacy, layered greenery, and that rare “are we still in Papamoa?” feeling. Front and centre sits the solar heated 8x3 saltwater swimming pool with waterfall feature, perfect for long summer afternoons, evening swims under the stars, and hosting friends who will absolutely overstay their welcome. The garden wraps around you with lush planting, sheltered pockets to relax in, and a peaceful, secluded vibe that makes everyday life feel like a holiday. There’s even a strip of lawn for kids or pets, so you get the tropical indulgence without sacrificing practicality. This is one of those homes you simply cannot judge from the street. You don’t drive past it. You walk through the gates and instantly get it. And then there’s the house, which more than holds its own. Inside, the home has undergone a substantial renovation, delivering modern comfort with real style. Think double glazing, a beautifully custom designed kitchen with feature penny tile, a full repaint, and modernised bathrooms. Bespoke lighting and plantation shutters and custom made drapes set the tone of quality and finish the spaces beautifully, giving the home a cohesive, high end feel without being showy. The kind of upgrades that make day to day living feel effortless. The layout is family friendly and flexible with three bedrooms, two bathrooms, and two separate living areas. If you need more sleeping space, that second living could easily become a fourth bedroom, media room, or teenage retreat. It future proofs your lifestyle as your family grows or changes. All of this sits in a sought after Papamoa Beach pocket with an easy stroll to Tahatai Primary School and the beach beyond. Morning drop offs, sunset walks, and salty swims become part of your daily rhythm. This is not just a home. It is a feeling. If you have been waiting for something that genuinely stands out, something with soul and sanctuary, come through the gates and experience it for yourself.

Dual living. Home and Income.
From the moment you step inside, it's immediately clear this is a home that's been thoughtfully curated with the future in mind. Everything feels fresh, refined and finished. The kind of place where you don't have to lift a finger, wait for a builder, or budget for the "one day we'll get to that" list. This home is like new. Your opportunity is now. The main residence is light, bright and beautifully balanced, offering three generous bedrooms plus a dedicated study, and two separate living zones that give you space to breathe, entertain, and spread out without ever feeling disconnected. Large windows draw in the sun, while two heat pump air conditioning units in the main living spaces keep things comfortable year round - cool in summer, cosy in winter, no negotiations required. There's a real sense of quality here too. Bespoke tiling crafted by a highly regarded local builder adds texture and character, elevating the home beyond the standard new build feel. It's modern, but with soul - the sort of detail you notice, admire, and quietly feel smug about owning. Now for the clever part. Tucked discreetly to the rear of the property is a fully self contained, legally consented two bedroom flat with its own single garage and excellent separation from the main home. It also has its own heat pump air conditioning unit, so comfort is sorted on both sides of the property. Whether you're blending generations, welcoming extended family, hosting teenagers who like their independence, or simply wanting an income stream to soften the edges of the mortgage, this setup gives you options. It has previously returned $650 per week, which in today's climate is nothing to sneeze at. Passive income with privacy intact? Yes please. The layout has been designed so both dwellings enjoy their own space and autonomy - no awkward window to window moments, just smart planning that works in real life. It's a home that adapts as your life does, whether that's growing families, changing circumstances, or future proofing your finances. And the setting? Quiet, settled and surrounded by good company in Palm Springs, Papamoa. You're handy to reserves for your daily walk, local cafés and everyday shopping, and close enough to the beach for spontaneous evening strolls when the mood strikes. It's the kind of neighbourhood where people stay, not just pass through. This is a home for the discerning buyer. Someone who values quality, flexibility, and smart property choices. A home that gives you options now and options later - without the wait, without the hassle, and without the compromise. Dual living homes like this don't sit around waiting for indecision. If you want a near new home with income in one of Papamoa's most settled pockets, you'll want to see this sooner rather than later. Get in touch today and come and experience just how well this one works.

Easy Living with a Little Extra
A home that proves practical doesn’t have to mean predictable. Built by Generation Homes and still covered by a building guarantee, this three bedroom home is all about easy living with a bit of personality. Perfect for busy lives, frequent travellers, or anyone who would rather spend weekends at the beach than behind a lawnmower. The kitchen punches above its weight. It’s larger than expected and centred around a generous island bench that naturally becomes the social hub. Morning coffees, evening wines, friends hovering while you cook, it all feels effortless. The living area flows straight out to a sun facing courtyard, giving you that indoor outdoor connection without the upkeep. Three bedrooms keep things flexible, the main bathroom is modern and tidy, and the extra toilet is one of those features you’ll quickly realise you can’t live without. Internal access garaging keeps life practical, with off street parking available for an additional vehicle. At the end of the lane, the swale opens up as your unofficial backyard. It’s ideal for kids to burn off energy or pets to roam, without adding to your maintenance list. And when the coffee craving hits or the fridge is looking bare, The Sands Town Centre is just a short walk away. This is lock and leave living done right. Sunny, smart, and refreshingly easy. If you’re looking for a home that fits your lifestyle rather than tying you down, 5 Haka Way is well worth your attention. Get in touch and come and feel the vibe for yourself.
