Frank Dowling, Shelley Dewar, Matthew Smith, Andy Roke and Renzo in ‘t Veld give Surfdale homeowners a range of people to consider for their sale. Frank offers a clear, down-to-earth manner, Shelley brings advertising and communications experience, Matthew combines creative marketing with negotiation, Andy focuses on practical solutions and Renzo contributes a design perspective. Each provides a distinct starting point for choosing your representative.
Adelaide Tong and Leon Tong add complementary strengths as a working partnership. Adelaide brings organisation and commercial experience from contract administration and engineering project coordination. Leon brings third-generation island roots, local building experience and the people skills behind his fishing charter business. Their story is grounded in raising a family and running a business on Waiheke, a relevant starting point for discussing the everyday appeal of a Surfdale home.
Surfdale’s shops, cafés and foreshore give a campaign useful everyday context. The Esplanade’s coastal connection with Blackpool adds another way to understand the setting. For a seller, the opportunity is to show how the house, garden, parking and local connections fit together as a place to live.
Shelley Dewar brings media strategy experience to presenting a home’s message clearly. Renzo in ‘t Veld, a Dutch-trained architect, adds a way of looking at circulation, space and the relationship between indoors and outdoors. These are useful conversations when a property’s strongest selling points lie in its practical layout or the way it accommodates family and guests.
Frank Dowling draws on sales and management experience and a property-investment background. His emphasis on communication gives sellers a straightforward basis for discussing feedback and negotiation. Matthew Smith treats each property as an individual project, linking marketing decisions with the campaign’s direction and the seller’s goals.
Andy Roke brings experience, resilience and a commitment to finding solutions, with confidentiality an important part of his approach. Whether you are moving within Waiheke or making a larger life change, the working relationship matters. Agree who will conduct viewings, how information will be followed up and when you will discuss progress. Your Surfdale sale should feel organised and personal from the outset.
