I moved into real estate selling in 1992 and have never looked back. With over 29 years in local real estate I have a wealth of knowledge and experience to share with my clients. I take great care to give first class service and follow through and this has resulted in a strong repeat and referral business.

Outside of real estate I had ten years as Chairman of the Whakatane Community Patrol where I was instrumental in setting up the CCTV cameras to monitor the activities around the town and my main interest is all forms of motor racing.

A lifelong resident of the Bay of Plenty means Phillip has an in-depth knowledge of the region as well as strong ties with the rural community.

Raised on the family farm at Reporoa, Phillip attended both Reporoa Primary and Secondary Schools.

Phillip began his working life as a farm cadet and progressed right through every stage of the NZ Dairy Industry to eventually own his own 450 cow Dairy Farm.

During this time, he held numerous representative positions within Federated Farmers, New Zealand Dairy Group and Fonterra. He also spent 7 years on the Board of Trustees at Reporoa Primary School. The last 2 years as board chair.

Phillips interest in Real Estate began with being involved in the buying and selling of several commercial properties during the late 1990’s and into the early 2000’s period. It was this experience that gave Phillip a significant insight into the workings of the Real Estate Industry and spurred him to gain his Real Estate Licence in 2005.

Phillip is committed to providing owners of Farms, Lifestyle Blocks and all other rural land with a no nonsense, highly professional real estate service. His high level of motivation and helpful, friendly manner along with his commitment to provide every client with the same advice as he would a close friend or family member ensure that your property is in safe and very capable hands while being listed with Phillip.
