When Jen and her husband Shane decided to make a career change to real estate they had one burning desire: to be the agents people could trust. Years later this is still at the heart of everything they do as they work in partnership to help people to reach their property goals.

Jen had a strong interest in real estate before making it her profession. She bought her first home at the age of 21 and continued to buy and sell property in various regions of New Zealand together with her husband, Shane.  Together they have tackled projects involving do-uppers, bare sections, rural subdivisions, a house relocation and rebuild, rentals, coastal locations, a shell to complete, and a new build.  This wealth of experience as property owners has given them first-hand knowledge of both the stress and excitement of buying and selling property, along with an in-depth understanding of a wide variety of property transactions.

Having encountered many levels of proficiency in the agents they worked with, over that time, Shane and Jen decided they could make a positive difference in the way others experienced what can often be a stressful time handling the most significant investments of a lifetime.

Combined with a background as a successful business owner and post-graduate qualified physiotherapist, real estate fitted in perfectly with Jen’s desire to help others.

Jen is known as a strong but personable negotiator, always looking for a win-win result. Energetic, enthusiastic, and determined, she leaves no stone unturned to research your options and secure your best outcome.

Her experience and attention to detail mean she knows how to pinpoint the creative changes that elevate a home in the eyes of potential purchasers. She has a proven record for achieving better-than-expected results and loves nothing better than setting top, street records, and sale prices.

As a testament to her approach, Jen is regarded as a trusted advisor to many and is grateful that many of her clients have become firm friends, with repeat business and referrals featuring strongly.

Local to Long Bay and Torbay, Jen has lived in the area for over thirty years and is one of its greatest proponents. In her spare time, she can be found walking on the beach, gardening, taking Pilates classes (Jen is an instructor), and spending time with friends and family.

Positive and inspiring, Jen loves assisting people to buy and sell real estate. Together with Shane, she leads a team at Bayleys Long Bay, dedicated to over-delivering in helping clients achieve their coastal, residential, and lifestyle property dreams, and committed to maintaining their reputation as the agents you can trust.
