Hi I’m Jeff Davison and have lived in Waitara for the last 38 years. I left school at the age of 15 and went to work at the Farmers Co-op in
Waitara until 1975. I then went to work in the office at Thos Borthwick & Son’s Waitara Freezing Works and after 3 years, in 1978, I was promoted to the position of Freezer Foreman responsible for the cold storage and
shipment of product to
overseas markets. I held this position until AFFCO closed the plant in 1998. In 1999 my wife (Margaret) and I
purchased the KowhaiBookshop, in partnership with another couple, and it was here I worked until July 2003 when we sold our share to the other partners.
Jeff has been involved in the local community in many ways over a number of years including NZ Fire Service as a volunteer Fireman in:

The Waitara Brigade for 10 years.
Waitara Cricket Club as a player for 25 years and held most committee positions during that time.
Tikorangi Cricket Club and Jubilee Committee.
Taranaki Cricket Association.
Clifton Rugby Club as a player and administrator for over 20 years.
Waitara East School Committee.
North Taranaki Deerstalkers Association.
Member of Rotary for 12 years.

Margaret and I have been married for 32 years, we have two children, Michael and Tracey and our beautiful granddaughter Annja. I still like to do a bit of duck shooting, but the only other hunting I do is in the fridge for the cheese and crackers so Annja and I can sit and watch the rugby. The hills are just too big for any other kind of hunting these days.
I enjoy doing the family thing, especially with Annja, she is now 4yrs old and has complete control over Grandma and Morrow.

I have been selling real estate for 10 years now and enjoy every minute of it. I have met a lot of wonderful people in this time and will no doubt meet many more for a wee while yet. I am committed to providing my clients with the best service possible. It’s all about getting the best results, but only with professionalism, honesty and integrity.

Sheryl is a total Taranakian and more importantly a total Waitarian. She grew up on a farm in Brixton going to school at Waitara Central and then on to Waitara High School. On leaving school Sheryl took up a job at the
Waitara Branch of The Bank of New Zealand where she worked for six years until she started her family. Sheryl and David have a strong belief in one parent being home with the children (if possible) so while Marnie and Spencer grew up she did part time work, fitting it around school hours. These were Motel cleaning and relieving
and home help work through Plunket/Karitane and six years as caretaker at Waitara East School. Before taking up her career in Real Estate Sheryl spent six months back at the Bank of New Zealand on a part time basis. Sheryl also spent a considerable amount of time on Home and School and Plunket committees over the years. This year Sheryl is President of the Waitara Rotary club.

Sheryl joined Harcourts in 1990 working from the Fitzroy Office servicing the Waitara area. In August 1990 the Waitara Office was opened with Trevor Hooker as Manager. When Sheryl
completed her Branch Managers papers Trevor moved back to New Plymouth Office and Sheryl took over the Waitara Branch and was instrumental in the expansion of the office and the creation of a Property Management Division, which is administered by
her daughter Marnie Page. Her Husband David has now joined her in the office and manages the administration. Sheryl places great importance on
the servicing of valued
clients, and to this end has appointed a Personal Assistant.

Sheryl attained the full qualification to licensee level as distinguished by
the letters AREINZ (Associate of the Real Estate Institute of NZ.) and has to her credit over 100 million dollars in settled sales. Sheryl is proud to be a part of the Harcourts Team, which now spans 22 years.

In January 1996 Sheryl was also given the honour of being appointed a Justice of the Peace of New Zealand and is also a Marriage Celebrant.
Sheryl and David realised in 2005 why they had children! The Arrival of their first grandchild Finn that year was a delight and in 2008 Lily arrived, double delight! Both grandchildren love spending time with their grandparents
and of course being cousins they love spending time together. Needless to say the grandparents love having them both. Holidays away with the families are great times, not to be missed. Sheryl still enjoys her career with
Harcourts and is not ready to retire yet!
