INTRODUCING
The Rushworths
After nearly four years in real estate, Brent is
excited to have Jayne join him, they are now a
formidable team that is able to cater to their
growing business and ensure quality service for
their clients.
“This means we can double our capacity and the
volume of business,” says Jayne, who is delighted
to be working in partnership with her husband.
As Brent puts it, “Our clients get two agents for
the price of one which is great for them and works
well for us too, it means we are always available”.
Jayne brings great skills to their business with her
creative talents, having previously owned and run
a florist business and a cake decorating business.
“I’ve always been interested in interior design
too, which means I can help clients when they
are preparing their properties for sale – having a
well-presented property makes a big difference,”
she says.
The couple are based at Ray White Bishopdale,
and love servicing the Northwest of Christchurch.
As they point out, the market is particularly
buoyant at present, with many properties selling
well above owners expectations. A recent
example was a three-bedroom family home in
Veitches Road, Casebrook, which Brent and Jayne
took to auction. “We had 160 groups through on
the open days and 18 registered bidders for the
auction. It sold well over our clients expectations
with competitive bidding in the room.”
“Unfortunately we now have 17 buyers who are
still searching for a home.” says Brent.
Living and working locally, Brent & Jayne are
a familiar face to residents which Brent says is
hugely beneficial for their business. “Having lots
of local contacts means we often get referrals
and leads through word of mouth. And people are
always keen to speak to us if they are wanting to
buy or sell a property – it seems we are the go to
agents in the Northwest by default.” Jayne says.
“We like the freedom of being able to plan our
day rather than having a set structure. And we
like meeting lots of different people. Every day is
different, and everyone’s situation is different.”
says Brent.
“We believe there is nothing more exciting than
being able to help people achieve their home
ownership and property investment dreams
every day of the week – it’s what gives us so much
energy and passion for what we do.” says Jayne.
Having both grown up on the north side of the
city the couple know the suburbs well and are
committed to bringing their knowledge and
expertise to the local real estate market.
“We are always available to provide property
appraisals or any other help people need when
they are thinking of buying or selling a property,”
says Brent.
