About Kris Brown

Top Medium Property Management Office, South Auckland Region, 6 months ending September 2022

I’ve been in the property management industry for 16 years and I still get a real kick out of matching the right tenant with the right house.

I’ve worked my way up through the ranks and for the last 13 of my 16 years, I’ve worked in South Auckland. Working for such a long period of time in the area really gives me an advantage. I learned very quickly that as a Property Manager I need to be able to see both sides of any situation. Add to that my problem solving skills, patience and an amazing sense of humour, and you have someone who will find you the home you’re looking for. This is true whether you are a landlord seeking the ideal tenants or a tenant wanting the perfect property.

The diversity of Manurewa makes it such a vibrant and lively area to make your home. Auckland Airport is located in South Auckland and for some interesting pastimes there’s Rainbow’s End, the Auckland Botanic Gardens and of course one of the oldest shopping malls in the country, Westfield Manukau City.

I have a husband, two dogs and a cat and I’m an avid movie buff. In the summer and on long weekends, we try to get away to as many of the beautiful camping sites as possible.

My personal philosophy of “don’t worry, we will sort it” provides many a happy moment for many of our clients.

If you’re a landlord or a tenant, our team has all the skills. Call me at Barfoot & Thompson Manurewa.

What my clients say

I would like to thank you and Barfoot & Thompson for managing my property since 2020, also Kate Gabriel and subsequently Crystal and now you. All of your agents were very professional dealing with various tenancy issues on the property, especially at the height of COVID-19, during the high rainy season, and while dealing with accidents, such as when my sleepout was exposed to a fire.

Now that the keys have been collected by the selling agent and the bond deposit has been credited. I simply wanted to thank you once again for all of Barfoot & Thompson's management.

You guys have gone absolutely above-and-beyond for me, and although it has been a tenancy I have had to terminate because I have an ill mother, it has been invaluable having a team behind me from the Barfoot & Thompson business unit. I trust you.

I was recommended by Sue Matete, who we have had a longstanding relationship with.

Kris, you have involved legal support, and advised Jerry, who has implemented your advice. You have great communication, and you obviously have a good team behind you.

Jerry is working strongly to ensure that my tenants are supported with relocating. This was my primary concern, as although they have been difficult they should not be neglected. This shows an unusual amount of compassion from a rental agent.

Your whole team should be commended for your compassion and support.
