About Sam Gilchrist
With over a decade of experience in the real estate industry, I've had the privilege of helping countless clients achieve their property goals. My journey in real estate began long before I officially entered the profession, as I grew up with a deep fascination for the industry and learned from my father, Phil, a seasoned real estate professional. After completing high school here in Wanaka, I moved to further my education, studying Carpentry, Construction Management, and Quantity Surveying. Following a short stint in Australia, I returned to Wanaka determined to make my mark in real estate. Starting as an Assistant and Marketing Coordinator, I quickly realized my passion for the entire process—from listing and marketing properties to the thrill of closing a sale. Since earning my Real Estate Salesperson's license in 2012 and being part of the founding team at Prime Wanaka Real Estate, I've gained extensive experience across all facets of the industry. My role has evolved significantly, allowing me to grow both personally and professionally. I've developed a deep understanding of the market, and I take pride in the strong relationships I've built with my clients. Their positive feedback and successful outcomes are my greatest rewards. In addition to my career, my wife, Alice, and I are raising our young family here in the Wanaka area. This personal connection to the community gives me unique insights into the local market and a deep appreciation for what makes this region such a special place to live. I firmly believe that the key to real estate success lies in building trust and maintaining strong relationships. My approach is rooted in integrity, empathy, and a commitment to delivering exceptional service. With a wealth of knowledge, a passion for real estate, and a proven track record, I'm dedicated to ensuring that every transaction is as smooth and profitable as possible for my clients.
