He is a local as he has lived in Tauranga most of his life and has an extensive knowledge of the wider rural community, together with a wealth of experience in all aspects of rural sales.
Richard has a particular interest in the horticultural sector, having completed an Orchard cadetship after leaving school followed by owning a contracting business in the fruit packing industry. Further experience was gained farming in the UK and also completing a business diploma.
Professional integrity and providing a high standard of personal service is always his prime focus.
We worked with Richard Hubbard who successfully sold our property for us. Richard's customer service was outstanding, easy to liaise with, always replied promptly and kept us well informed throughout the whole process. An absolute pleasure to work with.
Richard Hubbard covered every aspect of the sales process and expertly walked us through it, meaning we had absolutely no stress despite the fact it's the first time we've ever sold property and we'd been there for 44 years. At every step of the way we had all the information and support we needed. The auction team at the Tauranga office were professional, friendly, and very helpful. We cannot recommend the team, and Richard in particular, highly enough.
When it came time for Shaun and I to sell our lifestyle property in Tauranga, we both agreed that Richard Hubbard of Harcourts was going to be the agent for us. We had met Richard a number of years ago when we were initially looking to purchase a lifestyle property and we were very impressed with the service and attention we received at that time. Richard was with us every step of the way when it came for us to sell our lifestyle property – he was very easy to communicate with and kept us well informed throughout the entire process. If you are looking for a real estate agent to sell your property, we would highly recommend Richard. -Shaun and Briar Hutchings
Hi Richard, just wanted to say what a fantastic auction campaign you ran on my husbands property. It's difficult putting your biggest asset in the hands of someone else and I get that being a Harcourts rep too. However whilst we're in Perth your communication has been outstanding all the way through the process and the result better than we could of hoped for. It's great to see the Harcourts values are the same across the world. Thanks again to you, Graham and Nigel, awesome team work!

It was a totally great process from start to finish. You have reinstated our faith in the Real estate industry! A really good out come for us. We would not hesitate to highly recommend you both to anyone looking to sell their property. Thank you both again for a job well done and a big pat on the back from us both. > Kindest regards John and Raewyn Dower
From the moment Richard and Graham viewed our property they provided the utmost professional service. Backed by the Harcourts team, Richard and Graham took the time to understand our needs and situation. Harcourts provided excellent value for money with their promotional package, which worked. At every open home we had a good response, even in the middle of winter in the pouring rain! They worked with the potential purchasers to understand their needs to ensure that buyer and seller matched. Nigel, the auctioneer, took the time to visit our property, walk the boundaries and get a feel of the place. The auction process was nerve racking but from start to finish the Harcourts team were completely supportive and totally professional. In a difficult market they got the sale. I thoroughly recommend Harcourts without reservation.
