Scotty brings a lifetime of real-world farming experience to his role in real estate, offering clients a level of insight that can’t be learned from textbooks. With over 40 years spent working across dairy, sheep, and beef operations, from Kaitaia to Wānaka. He has developed a deep understanding of the land, the people who work it, and the commercial realities that shape rural and lifestyle properties.

His background includes high country station management, where decision-making carries both operational and economic weight. This experience has given Scotty a sharp commercial mindset and a practical appreciation for how broader market forces impact farming businesses. Just as importantly, his success in farming has been built on strong people management, knowing how to lead teams, build relationships, and get the best out of those around him.

Farming is an industry defined by change, and Scotty has navigated decades of evolving conditions with resilience and adaptability. These qualities now underpin his approach to real estate, where he provides clear, grounded advice to clients navigating the rural and lifestyle property market.

Working alongside his wife, Jen, they take a team-focused approach to real estate, bringing together their complementary skills, experience, and knowledge to deliver a well-rounded service to clients. Together, they place strong emphasis on building relationships, communicating clearly, and developing a genuine understanding of each client’s needs.

His passion for farming extends beyond the farm gate. Scotty is an active and competitive dog trialist, reflecting his ongoing connection to the land and rural community. Outside of this, he’s a keen rugby supporter and enjoys all forms of sport.
