About Simon Hart

Having lived in Kerikeri since 1974, I have accumulated a large network of contacts within the Bay of Islands area. I have also learned that selling real estate today requires knowledge, dedication, honesty and patience, as well as outstanding marketing and negotiating skills. With this in mind, you can have complete confidence in my ability to help you sell or purchase your property.

Some may remember me from my time at Kerikeri High School, where I followed in my father’s footsteps. As a trained Chef tutor, I was Coach of the Senior Hospitality team that won ‘Top New Zealand School’ at the National Secondary Schools Championships in 2009 and 2014. It was an accolade of which I am particularly proud, not just for me but also for Kerikeri High.

Rest and relaxation for me usually involves family time and exercise. I like to get out and about with my wife Vicky, our three kids and Whiskey the family pooch. I’m goalkeeper for the Kerikeri Football Masters, play Reserve Grade for Kerikeri Cricket Club, and am on the Kerikeri High School PTA.

I know that buying or selling a property is never easy - I've been there myself several times. However, with the right person by your side it can be an exciting, smooth and rewarding journey. My expertise together with the Barfoot & Thompson brand is a powerful combination that will work for you.

Testimonials
We found the whole experience of buying a house to be smooth, well-informed and a very personal experience with Simon. We have bought several houses before and this deal was signed, sealed and delivered very quickly. Communication was clear and timely... Simon was so great, he even brought his son over to help us move in!- Chris & Bernadette
Simon Hart from Barfoot & Thompson was THE BEST real estate salesperson we have ever had. He is highly professional, efficient, has high integrity and honesty, has extremely fantastic communication and we never had to wait for an answer to our queries no matter how busy he was. He was always empathetic, kind and when the time came, he got down to it and got the job done! (even to the point of changing his trousers to work shorts in our driveway to help us with the final gardening for the photos!!) We were able to sell for the exact price we wanted and it was a pleasure to have him do this for us. He took all the stress out of the process, and his easy-going style also helped when things were a bit stressful. He also had a fantastic team at Barfoot & Thompson, and I could tell they were all team players with their advice and discussions. Thank you Simon for helping us realise our dream and we would not have done that if you had not worked so hard to get us the right price at the right time-
We have been delighted with the process and result of selling our property, with Simon Hart as our salesperson. He is very personable and enthusiastic in his approach, explained the process clearly, and provided us with a thoroughly realistic appraisal of the property. Simon was highly professional in achieving an excellent result in a short space of time. We are happy to recommend him.- William Poore & Dinah Lawrence
We were barely looking, but a whisper of encouragement, the ever so lighthearted nudge over the dotted line, and a month in, we find ourselves in paradise. Life changing...the journey could not have been easier with you, assisting us every step of the way, attending to each phone call or email with top priority. No purchase is ever easy but you made it feel possible. From the uncertainty to the possibility you not only helped us buy a house, you showed us the dream! We, the Dudek family, thank you from the bottom of our hearts!- Eric & Lilly Dudek
