In 1996 Heather entered the real estate industry bringing with her a wealth of experience from the "school of life"! An administrative background as a legal secretary and many years as a counsellor alongside her husband, Paul, provided Heather with some invaluable tools for a career in Real Estate.

Since establishing Norrish Realty in 2004 in partnership with Paul, Heather has completed the necessary study to obtain recognition as an Associate of the Real Estate Institute of New Zealand (AREINZ).

Over the years Heather's business has gone from strength to strength with most of her business returning to her from past clients and ongoing referrals.

Since day one, Paul and Heather have shared the value that "people matter most" and it's been tried and tested that "when people come first it's rewarding for everyone"!

Profile written by Heather Norrish:

It is my pleasure to introduce Jan King - my business partner.

Finding the right person to fill this role was not easy. Having spent over 10 years growing my business and establishing relationships of trust with my extensive client base it was essential to find a person of the highest character and integrity and with the necessary administrative and people skills. After giving the matter considerable thought I finally approached Jan whom I had known for a number of years and identified her as being just the person I needed. Jan has very high personal values and business ethics, a meticulous eye for detail and most importantly treats everybody she meets with “unconditional positive regard” – the most significant quality I was looking for in a business partner.

Happily married to Kevin for 29 years and the mother of two lovely daughters Jan brings to her position at Norrish a lifetime of experience in dealing with people. Her background has included office management and administration and in more recent years the establishment of a therapeutic massage clinic.

Jan works closely with me in all facets of my business but with a particular focus on service to buyers. Satisfying the needs of buyers can often be time consuming and this is an area where Jan has found her “niche”. She patiently persists in helping buyers to find the most suitable property for their requirements.

It is a privilege to have a partner of such a high caliber working alongside me in the business of providing our clients with the highest standard of service available in our industry.
