Never one to miss an opportunity, Maurice Heappey is now utilising his natural skills to help bring buyers and sellers of real estate together with Bayleys Turangi.

Maurice’s family has been part of the Turangi Community since 1966. His parents were one of the first milk vendors to service the Southern Lake Taupo area.

In 1974 Maurice’s father Jim, started selling real estate and the Heappey name has been synonymous with real estate in the area since then.

Educated firstly in Turangi, Maurice is also a proud Old Boy of Huntley School, Marton and Palmerston North Boys’ High School. Maurice has retained and strengthened his relationships from this era and in fact, many of these families have owned holiday homes in the Southern Lake area.

Having had experience in both the ski and boating industry, which affords him a broad spectrum of contacts, Maurice set up Turangi Boat Storage in 1984 and still runs this business today.

Maurice is married, has a teenage daughter and they enjoy living on an equestrian life style property. An avid snow skier, road and mountain biker, he loves living in the Central Plateau as it is ideal to pursue these interests.

He has an exceptional network of contacts and enjoys promoting the attributes that the Southern Lake Taupo region proudly offers.

Maurice is brimful of solid advice, expert local knowledge and a sound understanding of all things property – from Commercial Investments through to Lifestyle Blocks and Businesses to Residential.

He looks forward to meeting existing and new customers and assisting them in the next stage of their real estate life.
