Introducing
Wayne Rawson AREINZ Grad.Dip.Bus.Stud (Real Estate)
Rural & Lifestyle Sales

Wayne willingly admits that his life is driven by some major loves. He lists them as his wife and family, sailing and living and selling in Whitford.
It is his passion for Whitford and the surrounding districts, combined also with some solid experience in the real estate and advertising industries that makes him such an effective salesperson for Barfoot & Thompson.

It would be difficult to find a salesperson better qualified than Wayne. After previous roles as a dairy farmer and cartage contractor he came into the real estate industry in 1980. His initial employers were Beltons Real Estate. Wayne enjoyed selling real estate in Howick and the surrounding area but a career in the “fourth estate” beckoned him and he went to work for the New Zealand Herald in their advertising department. Wayne held a variety of positions and for 12 of his 18 years at the Herald was closely involved in real estate advertising.
So successful was he in the role that he became a presenter and tutor in the effective marketing and advertising of real estate. While working through the Real Estate Exam Centre in Milford and Massey University, Albany, he also trained hundreds of sales staff through corporate and office seminars.
Wayne is a past member of the Advertising Institute of New Zealand and is an Associate Fellow of the Institute.

In 1999 after 18 years with the Herald, a new challenge beckoned and Wayne took up a position on the sales team of a local real estate office. Four years earlier he had moved to Whitford after living for many years in Howick. “I moved to Whitford to enjoy peace and quiet of the country.” Wayne says. “I enjoy introducing others to our wonderful area and showing them the benefits of a rural lifestyle.”

In 2005 Wayne enrolled at Massey University to study for a business diploma, majoring in Real Estate.
2006 saw him qualify as a branch manager and he was voted an Associate of the Real Estate Institute in 2007.
He was thrilled to graduate from Massey in 2008.

Wayne in 2009, after 10 years with his previous agency (many of them award winning) joined the Whitford Barfoot & Thompson team.

Wayne calls on his background in marketing and advertising to ensure his vendors get the very best promotion of their properties. His abilities have given proven success as a top salesperson in the rural lifestyle environment.
