About Andrea Kent

Andrea has a passion for homes, an eye for potential and an absolute love for the diverse building styles available on Auckland's North Shore.

She has successfully completed a Business Diploma as well as some additional accounting papers, which have provided her with a great understanding of effective business management. She has experience in the accounting field, having worked for Tower Insurance, Rank Xerox and The York Group of companies, where she ran their accounts department and computerised accounting system for five years.

Having also helped to set up and run an automotive company with her husband, Andrea has learnt many skills which she applies to her real estate career – customer satisfaction, time management, communication skills, meeting deadlines, proactive thinking, listening, negotiating and people skills.

As an active person, Andrea has travelled overseas extensively. She is enthusiastic about netball, and has a Netball Coaching Certificate and a Senior Netball Umpiring Certificate. She is involved in the community through netball - coaching, managing and umpiring netball teams for her three children’s schools.

Over a period of 35 years, Andrea and her husband have bought, renovated and sold several houses, all through Barfoot & Thompson. She chose Barfoot & Thompson as a client, for similar reasons she chose to work for them as an employee – their values of honesty, integrity, ethics and family significance.

Andrea has a confident, outgoing personality and loves meeting, talking and dealing with people. She goes the 'extra mile' with both her clients and customers, working with them to achieve their real estate goals in a stress free manner.

She would love to hear from you.

What my clients say

Extremely Hardworking and Honest

Not only did Andrea and Celeste help us achieve our goal of selling our house (within a very challenging market) with four offers to consider on Day 6 of the property being on the market, they were invaluable with their knowledge and experience around all the legal documents and requirements, giving us clear instructions of what to do around open homes at Easter time and great guidance when dealing with other agents looking at the property. Both being extremely hardworking and honest through what can be a very anxious and nerve-wracking process, we also all managed to have a bit of fun and keep things lighthearted. Without a single doubt I would highly recommend Andrea and Celeste.

Perfect Result
Andrea and Celeste did a great job of selling our mother's house in a challenging market. They guided us through all the processes with confidence and showed us on many occasions an in-depth knowledge of the whole process.

Sale Made Easy
I just want to say thankyou for making the sale of our property easy and hassle-free. Your efforts in getting us a good price in what is a very tricky market is to be commended.

Thanks again.

More Than A Salesperson

I highly recommend Andrea and Celeste Kent. They were more than salespeople with my property transaction, personally tailoring my requirements, topped with huge house/market advice which saw my purchase as seamless and with the stress kept to an absolute minimum. Highly professional and constantly motivated while remaining caring and thoughtful to my personal situation. I can't thank them enough and will be recommending them to my friends, family and colleagues for future sales/purchases. Can't thank you enough Andrea and Celeste. Awesome team!

Helpful, Efficient & Knowledgeable

It concerns me that no matter what I write about Andrea and Celeste, it will fall far short of describing how amazingly helpful and approachable and how efficient and knowledgeable they were in the process of selling a house that was fraught with problems. In Andrea and Celeste's case, they went out of their way to help, to the point of physically lending a hand in preparing the property for an open home, as well as offering sound advice on what to do to make the property more appealing. They went far beyond the call of duty or what we expected of a salesperson. Their policy was to 'do as they would be done by' and this, in the face of a whole set of difficult circumstances for which we will always be grateful. In such circumstances they were a stabilising force and had the experience and knowledge to suggest solutions which we were only too relieved to adopt. All in all they guided us through the process of selling and in a way which made it fun. They kept us constantly informed of how the sale was progressing and what each person viewing the property thought. We were particularly impressed with their policy of transparency and honesty, their skills in communicating and establishing a friendly, trusting relationship with us as clients. In short, they were amazing. Having successfully sold the property we were left feeling that we had made two new friends.

Alan and Kathryn - Glen Road, Browns Bay

"Andrea's personality and ability to establish a rapport with people made an instant impact. Her professionalism and knowledge was first rate as she calmly coped with a wide range of questions from us. The follow up and regular contact during the selling of our property made the process seamless. I plan to recommend her to any of my friends and colleagues as I know she will always do her very best for her clients."

Jane Platts - Browns Bay Road

"Andrea Kent went beyond the call of her duties in selling our house. Andrea helped us find another property when the property that we wanted fell through even though the listing wasn't through Barfoot & Thompson. She acted on our behalf which we were thoroughly grateful for as we may not have secured the purchase without her negotiation skills. I would definitely recommend Andrea to friends who in the future may want to sell their homes."

Helen & Phil Ingram - Deverell Place

"What a huge journey we have had finding a new house!! Through all the stress, upsets, disappointments, etc Andrea has stuck with us and found us a fabulous home we are loving it :) Thank you so much Andrea for your professionalism, encouragement, amazing daily communication and advice. We looked in many suburbs and you were the only agent who went the extra mile for us and seemed to care. We will highly recommend your services to all."

Simon & Emily Carter - Bundoran Way

"We recnetly sold our property by auction with Barfoots using Andrea Kent as our agent. Even after helping us achieve our goal Andrea has continued to be absolutely superb and has worked with us to secure the purchase of a section from a Chinese client (even though she doesn't speak the language). She chased everything up for us to a sucessful conclusion and in our opinion went far beyond what we expected her to do. She has always made herself available to us, helping with our building plans and given ideas and used her professionalism to point out possible pitfalls and offered great advice. We cannot praise her highly enough for all she has done and she is a fantastic advert for your company. We highly recommend her to anyone considering buying or selling."
