I was first introduced to real estate at just five years of age. My father, Brian Reid was both a salesperson and sales manager at Barfoot & Thompson for over 30 years. At the age of 19, I made the decision to follow in his footsteps, and 20 years of real estate success later, I’ve never looked back. When you are passionate about property as I am, it is not just a job, it is a lifestyle which I thrive on.

I specialise in lifestyle and residential property as well as special projects including subdivisions and multi-unit developments. Having had my own personal experience in project management, I understand the importance of strategic planning and deadlines. Real estate can be extremely demanding and sometimes complex.

Over the years, I have consistently won business on the basis that I listen, understand and relate to my clients’ needs to ensure they achieve the most successful outcome. I pride myself on my honesty, integrity and efficiency and I am always 100% committed to my clients. Add to this bespoke marketing, communication and expert negotiating skills and you can be sure your property will reach all the right channels to achieve the best possible outcome.

Outside of real estate I like to keep fit as well as taking part in the competitive sport of show jumping. I live near the beach at Papamoa with my partner and my daughter on our lifestyle property.

I look forward to working with you.

We first met Carlene at a house viewing and we were so impressed with her professional demeanour, we asked Carlene to sell our property, which she sold within four weeks. Carlene worked hard to achieve whilst communicating every step of the process, which made our sale easy and stress free. We would recommend Carlene to anyone.

Alan & Lesley Ball

Carlene was professional and great at communicating.

Logan Delamere

Great agent to work with, very friendly and not pushy. Very professional and welcoming even when they were busy. Could answer all of my questions and if not found out quickly. I would recommend Carlene to any vendor or purchaser. Made everything easy and made the sale work.

Donna Youngman

"Stress Free"
Carlene was fabulous to work with. She was always positive and enthusiastic and very knowledgeable and up to date with the changing house market, which is really helpful and important with the rapid changes in the market at this time.

I would highly recommend Carlene, when selling your home and looking for your next one. Thanks Team CR.

Donna Rendel

"Takes the time to get to know you"
Under contract within one week after receiving a three way multi-offer and sold five days later. Carlene is very professional in her duties, but also takes the time to get to know more about you as a person (family). She remembers discussions and ideas that have come out of these discussions and is happy to point you in the right direction. I think the best testimonial for someone is that you would use them again and this is definitely the case with Carlene. Happy to use her in any house dealings and to give positive feedback to anyone inquiring.

Dianne & Reynar Hodge

"Resulted in a premium sale price which we were extremely happy with!"
We engaged Carlene Reid to market our property after receiving a handwritten letter, indicating that people had expressed interest in our property. We had previously been on the market twice with other companies and had not achieved the desired result. The time was right for us, and a short time after listing, we had multi-offers presented to us which resulted in a premium sale price which we were extremely happy with.

Lynne Wright

"Outstanding job!"
“Thank you, Carlene, for the outstanding job you did selling our property. You succeeded where others had failed with our unique site. We sincerely appreciated your expert advice and professionalism and most importantly your confidence in getting the job done. We would recommend you to everyone looking to market their property and look forward to working with you again in the future.”

Tony & Michele Green

"A pleasure to work with"
We wanted to write and thank you for your professional approach to all your dealings with Elaine and I, during our recent successful house sale. We selected you as our agent after our marketing research and are so pleased that we did. Right from our first meeting you were proactive, going over and above to put us in touch with various contractors we needed to help put the finishing touches in presenting our home to buyers. We were reliably updated with the open home results and other information to fully inform us during the marketing campaign. You were always a pleasure to work with.

We would thoroughly recommend Carlene as a top agent and we really appreciate that we can now commence a new chapter in our lives with our home sold.

"Team CR - Leaders In the Market "
What a wonderful experience we had with Carlene Reid. After our house had been on the market with a previous agency for months, we listed with Carlene and our house sold within weeks! Carlene provided the utmost professional service, with a great understanding of the current market, smooth communication and the ability to negotiate effectively between the vendors and purchasers, which is very rare to find. We are so pleased we were recommended Carlene and will continue to recommend to all our friends and family.

Shannon Henry

Carlene is honest and hardworking! She achieved an amazing result for us in a short time period in a very difficult market. Would highly recommend.

S L Doake & G R Doake

"Extremely impressed"
We first used Carlene Reid to help us buy a section in Mount Maunganui. Her knowledge of the market was exceptional and she was able to give us excellent advice all the way through the purchase. We were extremely impressed by her level of professionalism and clear communication skills when helping us secure our section.

As a result of our buying experience it was very easy to choose Carlene to help us sell our house in Tauranga. The result we achieved was far greater than we expected and we were extremely happy with the whole experience from start to finish. We will definitely use Carlene again in the future and will highly recommend her to any family or friends seeking an agent.

Tom & Anna

"Highly professional and very personable"
Carlene was exceptional in selling my property. I can't say enough about the professionalism of Carlene and her handling of the sale of my house. She would always get back to me answering any questions or concerns about the sale of the property.

Her knowledge of the market place and how it would affect the sale was up to date and relevant. Carlene's presentation was always immaculate and once again extremely professional. Her kindness and understanding of my situation was very much appreciated and certainly helped to ease the stress in selling the house. I would recommend Carlene to anyone wanting a top professional agent to sell their property.

Stephanie Wyrsch

"First-class Real Estate Agent"|
Carlene made herself available at any hour of the day with a smile, to give advice or information about property-related business. Nothing was too much trouble for Carlene, she was always friendly, always knowledgeable, and always efficient in her role. Hence her success.

Carol & Lawrie Chandler

"Kind and caring"
My husband and I had been searching to purchase our first home for over 18 months. We had dealt with dozens of agents in the region when we meet Carlene Reid. We felt like she was the first agent that actually gave a damn about our story and wanted to help. Even though we were the buyers, Carlene went out of her way to give us solid, unbiased advice on our offer. She was a huge part of the reason we had our offer accepted and after 18 months we finally have a home. Carlene was so lovely to deal with and I would highly recommend her above any other agent we've experienced. Thank you Carlene for all your help!

Zoe & David Beaver

"Amazing agent"
Carlene was absolutely amazing, every time we have dealt with her, with selling my dad’s home and then going on to sell our home. She was very understanding and super helpful making the whole process a breeze. Cannot recommend Carlene enough.

Taryn & Kirk Fisher

"Highly capable, dedicated and caring Real Estate Agent"
I recently worked with Carlene Reid to sell my lifestyle property, and I cannot recommend her highly enough. She was professional, knowledgeable, and supportive from the beginning to the end. Carlene went above and beyond to ensure that the sale of my property was a success. She provided me with valuable insights and expert advice and knew exactly the right marketing angle to market my property and kept me informed throughout the entire process. As I was in a different city throughout the campaign it was tough, but she made it work and was always willing to help.

Carlene's commitment to selling my property was unwavering, and she was always available to address any questions or concerns I had. Even if it was outside of office hours! Her attention to detail and excellent communication skills made the entire process seamless. I would highly recommend Carlene to anyone looking to sell their home. She is an outstanding real estate agent who truly cares about her clients and their needs.

Cat & Alex Broome
