When you’ve built a life on trust and protecting others, that badge stays with you no matter what comes next.
Nigel spent over three decades in the police force, serving in the UK and New Zealand, finishing his UK career as a detective sergeant. It was in 2006 that a call to New Zealand saw him, his wife, and their children relocate. They built a home on a quiet Oropi street and set up life in the beautiful Bay of Plenty.
While his uniform has changed, the meaningful community work is not too dissimilar from doing real estate. It centres on emotional intelligence, listening, and communicating, all the skills that build trust and friendship and deliver results.
For Nigel, it’s never just about the property, it’s about doing right by the people. Whether it’s a first-time buyer feeling overwhelmed or a homeowner unsure about selling, Nigel’s intuition and integrity guide every conversation accordingly. He’s seen nerves, doubts, and decision fatigue and knows when to lean in or ease off. The joy in handing over those keys; he’d bottle it if he could.
Nitty gritty details aren’t for everyone, but Nigel gets a kick out of handling the fine print. It means peace of mind across each step of the journey.
Good agents don’t work alone but as a unit. And it’s this team spirit that Nigel places high value on within The Northern Group—sharing stories, insights, and perspectives, all to bring more to the table for homeowners and buyers.
