Carl and UK-born wife Vanessa are a professional partnership who deliver no-nonsense facts. Having worked together for two decades, experience has proven that this is simply the most effective way to do business. Their results speak for themselves with repeat clients and referrals making up the majority of their business. Originally from Dunedin, Carl spent five years in the UK where he met Vanessa and formed this energetic and efficient team. Carl and Vanessa have both always worked in Sales and Marketing roles from retail, recruitment, radio, TV, equestrian, hospitality, agriculture and real estate since 2009. This experience coupled with their own involvement in property investment has made them top performers for New Zealand Sotheby’s International Realty. Carl and Vanessa opened the New Zealand Sotheby's International Realty Arrowtown office in 2013 and have enjoyed recruiting and being instrumental in growing the Arrowtown team to where it is today. Their ability to market a property through images and video is second to none. Their focus lies in getting the best results for their vendors and they are known to go the extra mile with a particularly hands-on approach. The journey with a client never ends and many have become lifelong friends. Their specialty areas are high-end properties, prestige locations and acreage. With Vanessa’s attention to detail, and Carl’s affable nature, their solid teamwork is guaranteed to exceed their client’s expectations. Currently living on a farm at Arrow Junction, Carl and Vanessa are community driven and their combined market knowledge and approachability ensure that there are always people stopping by the Arrowtown office, where “the atmosphere is really relaxed and the fridge is always stocked.”
