Exceptional service, trust, discipline and market knowledge. These are just some of the many qualities that make Claire Hutchinson an excellent real estate consultant.Claire understands all sides of the real estate dynamic, having purchased her first property at age 25. This journey has led her through buying and selling, renovation projects and new builds, as well as property management and property sales for over a decade in Auckland. “I love what real estate can create for people – with improvements and time, it offers incredible financial gains,” she says.As an East Auckland native, Claire moved to the central Auckland area where she fell in love with the character bungalows and villas of the greater area, and in particular Greenlane, where she has lived and raised her two sons for the last 10 years. Claire sought to perfect her adept visualizing skills while completing a Diploma in Journalism & Photography - something Claire has discovered is an advantage when it comes to selling your home. “I can see the potential of a property and what could be achieved,” she explains.Having also owned and operated two small businesses, while raising her family, Claire’s nature is that of great discipline and focus, and providing the very best service she can to her clients. Claire finds that being a great problem solver is extremely valuable when supporting home-owners to prepare their property ready for sale, marketing, working to conclude a sale, or find that property which is just right for purchase.
