The Ray White Group are pleased to announce the replacement of the Goodwin Realty office located in Mt Albert to be opened within 14 days of that office being sold and settled to Bayleys Real Estate.

New franchise owners Martin Honey and Rohan Thompson have confirmed their location on Mt Albert Road to be part of the Video Ezy complex, which has one of the highest profiles in the area. The office takes 170 sq metres of space and will house 25 salespeople. The building is currently being re modeled for the pending arrival of the Ray White team.

Since the announcement by Goodwin Realty to sell out their business to Bayleys Real Estate, Ray White has welcomed several of Goodwin Realty staff to the new Ray White Mt Albert office. All of the following salespeople are remaining with Ray White Mt Albert Susan Woods-Markwick, Colin Nicholson, Susan Nicholson, Connie Wight, Eric Wu, Jackie McDermot, Rex Baddeley and Simon Lu. Other Goodwin Realty sales staff to remain with other Ray White offices include Heather Hannah, Diane Goer and Linda Breeze.

Carey Smith, Chief Executive of Ray White New Zealand, said that the sale of the Goodwin business was always going to unlock enormous opportunity for the Ray White Group.  He said he was delighted with the number of sales staff remaining with Ray White in total at this stage more than half of the Goodwin Realty active sales staff and we expect more to join in the coming week.

The new franchise owners, Martin Honey and Rohan Thompson, run one of our top 10 businesses in New Zealand and are both high performing salespeople and leaders in their own right. They have announced that high profile sales manager Lyn Beere will be managing the office.

Martin Honey said the Mt Albert venture is very exciting. He also said he started his business in the Mt Albert area and it’s great to be back with the Ray White name to continue to grow market share for the group.

The Ray White Mt Albert office is expected to open on 15^th September 2011.

The Goodwin Realty Group are proud to present edition 4 of the Community Spirit magazine, which features a reflection on Christmas 2010 and upcoming events, including a family carnival day and the SPCA adopt-a-thon. The magazine is a reflection of the high community involvement that Goodwin Realty continues to sponsor through their Community Spirit programme.

In her editorial message, General Manager of the Goodwin Realty Group, Catherine Goodwin, writes about the Pay It Forward movement, which is centred on doing favours for other people without the expectation of it being paid back.  This is based on a real life reaction to the release of Catherine Ryan-Hydes novel of the same name.  Catherine goes on to write about the purpose of the Community Spirit magazine and the local family events programme being modelled on the Pay It Forward concept.

The Community Spirit programme has a number of partners and for further information or for inclusion of events, please contact Catherine Goodwin at catherine.goodwin@raywhite.com.
