Susie’s real estate career commenced in Waimate in 1992 with an independent company which opened a new office to coincide with the first wave of dairy conversions in the area.

Following a move to Mid Canterbury she studied for the Branch Manager and Associate qualifications and upon purchasing a farm at Fairlie with Paul and their two sons formed a boutique compony in a partnership called Mackenzie Country Real Estate which serviced Fairlie, Tekapo and Twizel.

After selling that shareholding she was approached by a co-operative to establish a presence in South Canterbury, and subsequently their first stand alone office in Tekapo at a time of frenetic development in the area.

The opportunity to fill a new sales management role with PGG Wrightson arose in 2007, with responsibility for South, and ultimately Mid Canterbury.

After more than 10 years with PGGW and a brief “holiday” she made the move to Harcourts, Timaru and Ashbury offices. “Simply the best” – what a team, and an opportunity to work with over 20 of the top performing people in SC property!
