Trusted real estate firm comes to Hornby<br />
When buying or selling a home you want<br />
assurance you are dealing with a competent<br />
and reliable agent and one who will work in<br />
your best interest.<br />
Mike Pero Real Estate is a trusted brand and<br />
the team at the new sales office in Hornby,<br />
experts in real estate with local knowledge,<br />
ensuring you receive reliable advice and an<br />
accurate assessment of your property.<br />
“Hornby was crying out for another real estate<br />
agency so when the right shop became<br />
available, we jumped at the chance to locate<br />
there,” advises Ken Sharplin, franchise owner<br />
of Mike Pero Real Estate Hornby.<br />
Mike Pero is the only brand that features<br />
listed homes on prime time television, at no<br />
expense to the owner and their fee structure<br />
can save a seller thousands of dollars. While<br />
some other real estate agents charge around<br />
3.95% or higher, the Mike Pero fee is much less<br />
at only 2.95%.<br />
“Mike Pero Real Estate is a strong brand so<br />
it’s not surprising we’ve had tremendous<br />
response from the local community with<br />
many people calling in and asking us to list<br />
their properties,” adds Ken who admits to<br />
enjoying a busy and stimulating life.<br />
• Ken is known to many in the area from his<br />
days playing senior rugby for Hornby and<br />
as a Canterbury rugby and rugby league<br />
representative. He has worked in real estate<br />
for 35 years, selling and managing branches,<br />
something he says he has always enjoyed.<br />
Ken’s enthusiasm is shared by a competent<br />
and enthusiastic team that includes:<br />
• Dee Knowles who has over 10 years’<br />
experience in real estate sales and<br />
administration.<br />
• Ian Falconer who joined real estate<br />
four years ago after a successful career<br />
establishing and managing supermarkets<br />
around Christchurch.<br />
• Stevie Golding whose great success during<br />
his time in the industry, follows on from his<br />
success as a standard bred horse racing<br />
driver of nearly 100 winners and senior<br />
cricket player for Halswell.<br />
• Lee Allison whose positive and committed<br />
attitude is a reflection of his background in<br />
sales, and who recently moved into real estate.<br />
In addition to a quality line-up of sales agents,<br />
a full-time mortgage broker, Chris Downes is<br />
based at Mike Pero Real Estate Hornby. He<br />

having worked in the finance sector for<br />
