Passionate About Property, Dedicated to You

Real estate is more than a job to me - it’s a lifelong passion. At just 22, I embarked on a journey of building, buying, renovating and selling property, gaining invaluable experience that set the foundation for my career. Now, with over 20 years in the industry specialising in residential and lifestyle properties, I’m thrilled to be part of the team at Barfoot & Thompson.

I take pride in delivering exceptional service, ensuring every client feels valued and supported throughout their property journey. Helping people find that perfect place to call home - or facilitating a seamless sale - is what makes my work so rewarding.

Beyond real estate, I have a deep connection to the land, having owned 80 hectares and managed an additional 500 hectares for dry stock. Living in the Bay of Plenty for the past 16 years has only strengthened my love for this region, with its breath-taking landscapes and welcoming rural communities, including Te Puna, Whakamarama, Pahoia, Aongatete and Bethlehem.

Outside of work, I enjoy traveling with my teenagers and embracing New Zealand’s great outdoors - whether it’s fishing, swimming, or staying active at the gym.

If you’re looking for a dedicated, experienced professional to help you achieve your property goals, give me a call at Barfoot & Thompson. I look forward to making your real estate journey a seamless and successful one!

What my clients say

A true professional with a wealth of experience. - We were keen to meet with Janelle as we bought our home through her 10 years ago and saw that she is now part of the Barfoot & Thompson brand which we knew and trusted. Janelle came to our first meeting with all the information we needed to hear and gave us good advice to present our home in the best way for buyers. After only three weeks of open homes, Janelle bought us an acceptable offer. Thank you Janelle for your honesty and professionalism.

Great Communicator and Salesperson
Janelle was highly recommended by friends after she successfully sold their property. She did not disappoint. A delightful person, very professional and respectful of boundaries. Our late parents' house was sold two weeks after going on the market and we were very happy with the price.

Linda

I originally engaged Janelle Cairns to sell my property because she had sold a house three doors along from me. She was also working for Barfoot & Thompson, who are my preferred real estate company. Upon meeting Janelle, her economical communication style and strong work ethic, was encouraging. The confidence and positivity with which Janelle discussed real estate was enough to give any vendor confidence that they can expect a good result. Janelle was punctual to Open Homes and gave timely feedback on Open Homes and booked viewings. As such, I can totally recommend Janelle Cairns to anyone selling property in Tauranga and surrounding areas.

We probably couldn't have picked a worse market to sell in, but we were impressed with Janelle. We went with her when she changed agency's as we were impressed with the way she kept on seeking a buyer. While we got less than we had hoped for, Janelle worked hard to get us the best deal available in the difficult market. Thank you Janelle. 10/10

Neil

Janelle Cairns was attentive and listened to our needs as a seller. There was no pressure on listing price, no pressure on “have to do this or that”. Instead, Janelle offered sensible suggestions around decluttering, a little maintenance, and practicalities like keeping the lawns mown. Promotional signs were displayed quickly and a professional marketing plan designed. We were more than happy with the extra effort provided by Janelle. She’s a skilled salesperson who is committed to getting a sale. It felt that she was clearly working hard for us. We liked the photos, the advertisements, and regular update meetings and most of all Janelle’s determination to keep her customer happy. She is genuine, friendly, and loyal. Naturally, she sold our house.

Paul & Shirley

Janelle was always on time to Open Homes; even a little bit early. She's positive, relatable and has a strong work ethic from what I've observed. She answers texts and emails quickly.

Linda Woods - Brookefield

Hey, I've known Janelle for a while now and told her that when I decided to sell she would get my approval. She's professional and honest so thanks Janelle..and a great real estate salesperson.

Billy Barnes Lifestyle

I just wanted to say how impressed we were with buying our recent property through Barfoot & Thompson. Janelle Cairns was the salesperson and she made it a very seamless and an easy purchase process. Janelle was always quick to reply and get us an answer and made things happen in a very swift manner. Nothing was ever a problem and she always offered more of her time if we needed it to look through the property again before it was settled. Thank you Janelle, you were 10/10 in our opinion.
