While the services of a real estate agent mightn't be needed in twelve months or even ten years' time, life has nevertheless taught me our needs change as time passes and our circumstances can change with little more than a heartbeat's notice.
So when the time comes to find a larger home for a growing family or downsize to a smaller more practical one, it would be a privilege to help.
I'm proud to say I come from a working-class background, the son of Greek migrants who came to this country for a better life in the earlier part of the twentieth century.
My father was employed as a process worker at a local motor vehicle componentry factory in the eastern suburbs while my mother was the home-maker for our family.
The work ethic I inherited from my parents combined with my experience in sales and advertising at Television New Zealand will provide confidence in working with me.
I've had the responsibility of marketing a wide range of properties across many price bands, with career achievements extending to multiple awards for customer satisfaction.
Outside of real-estate, part of my spare time is spent in volunteer work for the Samaritans organisation supporting their 24/7 helpline, 0800 726 666.
Samples of unprompted customer feedback: - “I must say I am impressed Stan, with your clear, direct answer. I have been writing with a similar information request to some other agents including those managing properties that are to be auctioned shortly. None have yet given an answer, let alone a transparent answer. Congrats to you.” - “Once again Stan, we are so grateful for your chauffeuring and your contacts.” - “Very professional and very helpful." - “We owe you a big thanks.” - “… no pressure, great advice.” - “… you have been very honest and helpful.” - “Given how supportive of me you have been in the search for the right place …” - “… we will use you because we trust you.” - “… you are a straight shooter with an ethical outlook.” - “Hi Stan. Thanks for the update. And thank you, thank you, thank you for your amazing support. I don’t know how we would get through this without it.”
