Ray White Hamilton City officially opened last week to a gathering of close on 150 people, who celebrated Sue Hall and her business partner Richard Jacobsen opening their new Ray White office on Mill Street. During the evening there were a number of speeches held which reflected on where the business was today in such a short period of time.

The Ray White Hamilton City office now has over 40 listings and has completed eight sales in its first month of trading.

Sue Hall, the co-owner of the new Hamilton City office, said that it was a proud moment for her to have many of her friends and clients attend the opening of the new office. She went on to say there has been great confidence from her existing clients to support the business and this has resulted in a new property listing being taken every day for the office. She also commented that to have the support of her business partner and six experienced salespeople already was ahead of her expectations.

Carey Smith, Chief Executive of Ray White New Zealand, said that the new Hamilton City office was a watershed moment for the Group. “Sue Hall is one of the highest achieving individual salespeople in New Zealand and to have her on board with Ray White will not only give a great lift to our company but also to her new office.”

On 1^st July 2011 Re/Max Leaders in Christchurch became Ray White Unlimited Christchurch.  In a time of considerable upheaval in the Christchurch property market, the move by Re/Max Leaders to rebrand their leading South Island agency to Ray White has seen the Ray White Group grow in Canterbury by an additional 26 salespeople.

Rod Corbett, director of the new Ray White Unlimited Christchurch office said that the move away from Re/Max was undertaken in the best interests of the sales team.   He said “The commitment to continue in Christchurch was unquestioned and that the future for the office to be part of a vibrant business to provide a platform to the next level and also to be part of the number one agency throughout Australasia were key reasons for their decision to change to Ray White.”

The business located on Stanmore Road in Linwood has always had a considerable advantage.  The individual salespeople are dedicated professionals who have, particularly during the past period, taken on the challenges of the marketplace and been able to assist the community to move forward with confidence in their real estate making decisions.

Carey Smith, Chief Executive of Ray White New Zealand, said that the new Ray White Unlimited team, headed up by Mike Wilson, sales manager, will provide Ray White with additional marketplace strength and credibility.  “Our Group is positioned as one of the market leaders in Christchurch and the vote of confidence of the management team to join Ray White has allowed the Group to consolidate its position in Christchurch and the broader Canterbury region. With the team coming on board, it will add a large amount of current listings which will give clients and customers of Ray White more choice in their property considerations.”
