I believe that every client is an individual. I spend time listening to the needs and only then can provide options/marketing strategies that will be tailored to suit their needs. I make sure that the process of selling or buying is as smooth & as positive as it can be and that clients are fully informed of all activity along the way.
One of my early testimonials stated that "they were so impressed with the service and the great results that they were just “Sold on Jude."
My brand has grown as has my business and continues to be renowned here in the Wairarapa and internationally.
My 23 years’ experience as a kindergarten teacher in the Wairarapa has helped me considerably. Parents and families trusting & respecting my professionalism making them feel empowered, secure & confident - they know I am honest, ethical & principled. These attributes are expected in the Real Estate profession.

"This piece of history" offers a perfect blend of comfort, style, and convenience.
One of, if not THE oldest house (c1875) in Masterton located in the historic precinct amongst other charming character homes.
The careful restoration by successive owners makes this home a must see if you appreciate quality workmanship and romance.
This 110m2 settlers cottage set on a 1037m2 section has 3 bedrooms, cute front porch, updated country kitchen with a walk in larder all warmed by a compliant free standing wood burner.Updated bathroom, typical front room warmed by a heat pump making this home comfortable to live in.
Be pleasantly energized by the old pleasures of time: native timbers, 9' stud, original Byford Brothers concept fireplaces, a central hall, dado rails and sash windows.
Step out the back door onto the porch and be uplifted at the existence of the heirloom garden with its roses, fruit trees, two huge walnut trees, cherry, pears, apple and feijoa. Also fruit canes, and a potager vege garden, all originally designed around seasonality to yield year-round fresh produce.
'Expol' under floor, as much as humanly possible, and ceiling insulation. Gas hot water always a good option.
Then there is a motor shed - the garage and a secure back garden safe for children and pets.
Convenient: 700m an easy walk to the centre of town and a hefty 800m to the railway station - offering a comfortable commute into the capital. Excellent schooling options all levels, the local Old Bakery at the end of the street, library, recreational centre QE parks making this property so appealing.
