Grant Matthews is a local South Auckland boy through and through. Joining Ray White Manukau in mid-2020 to kick off his real estate career as a licensed salesperson, Grant has spent pretty much his entire working and personal life living in around this part of Auckland.
His first job as a trainee technician position maintaining and installing telephone exchanges with New Zealand Post Office set the course most of his working life. As the government department metamorphosed into Telecom, Grant stayed with the new company and was promoted to a Project Coordinator role acquiring a Diploma in Business and a Diploma in Management from AUT along the way. He moved on up into corporate sales with Telecom’s Gen-i as Service Delivery Manager for 4 years. He loved the people contact and problem-solving aspects of this role. He then moved to Waitemata Hydraulics where he stayed for 5 years. In the meantime, Grant had been buying and developing residential property all around central and south Auckland, so it came as no surprise to friends and family when he decided in early 2020 to join the real estate industry as a salesperson.
Grant is a gregarious and likable communicator with an analytical mind and a great love of solving problems. This is the ideal combination of attributes for success in real estate. He has a vast knowledge of IT, a strong sense of community and these, combined with his significant sales background equips him well for the running of campaigns to sell residential homes and to guide the buyers that his listings attract. He is enthusiastic, diligent, details-oriented and competitive with an excellent network of local contacts.
You don't have to be a Shakespearean scholar to appreciate the value of this sturdy 2 bedroom, 1 bathroom apartment which is constructed from steel and concrete. It comes with an open plan living area that flows out onto a 13sqm north-facing balcony, a dedicated car park and an allowance for 4 guest car parks. With a little refurbishment, you could truly make this 66sqm apartment your own.
Situated on the 2nd floor, this property is in easy walking distance to Panmure's train and bus transportation hubs, Sylvia Park and Panmure shopping precincts and Bill McKinlay Park. This area is very much a part of the central eastern suburbs and close to the Tamaki Regeneration programme which is rejuvenating Glen Innes, Panmure, Point England and the AMETI Eastern Busway initiative, which bolsters this corridor to Pakuranga, Botany and Howick. This property lends itself to professionals wanting an easy carless, commute to the CBD, the first home buyer looking to get into the property market or an investor looking to increase their portfolio.
