About Leo Chen

I’m passionate about property investment and I believe that by using the right financial and investment strategies, it’s possible for you to achieve your home ownership dreams.  My formal qualifications enable me to help you with that goal.  Working for Barfoot & Thompson, a company with the number one share in Auckland and a good network and systems, gives each salesperson the opportunity to achieve success for their vendors, whether buying or selling.

I completed a Bachelor of Commerce majoring in Economics and also a Certificate in Liaison Interpreting.  This certificate enables me to effortlessly convert spoken statements from one language to another.

Following my studies at university, I worked as a business development manager in finance, a mortgage adviser and I served as a senior customs officer for eight years.  Being ranked in the top 10 mortgage advisers in 2017 was a particularly proud moment.

The attraction of central Auckland suburbs for me is the convenient location, vibrant communities and all the amenities you could want from schools, shopping and entertainment.  I’ve lived in various suburbs and am currently living in Mt Eden, so I know the wider area.  I’ve been a property investor myself and I understand first-hand the concerns and anxieties that local and migrant home buyers may be facing.

When I’m not working I play badminton twice a week in different clubs, I love to travel and walking my toy dog is always fun.  I’m also a youth leader for 8 to 11 year-olds at Sea Scouts.

I think you could say I’m a friendly, easy-going, action-oriented kind of guy who’s able to think outside the box.  My personal philosophy is “if a tick doesn’t fit the box, I will try to change the box”.

I’m fluent in Mandarin and Cantonese and I’m looking forward to hearing your story.   Call me at the Barfoot & Thompson Epsom branch.

What my clients say

Reliable, Efficient, Hardworking

Leo possesses a reliable work ethic. He is very hardworking and always avalable for his clients, even during non-office hours. Leo makes a strong effort to understand the needs of his clients and achieve a win-win result for both the owner and buyer.

I would highly recommend Leo to any buyers and he is definitely an important and great asset to the company.

Buyer

An exceptional agent and trusted adviser.
Leo Chen's involvement in renovating and staging our properties was nothing short of remarkable. His sophisticated knowledge and expertise were evident in every detail of the process, and his advice always added a unique personal touch that left us feeling sentimental and grateful.

We were especially impressed by Leo's talent for negotiation, which was a key factor in closing the sale of our property. His dedication to achieving the best possible outcome for us was evident in every conversation we had with him and we felt truly fortunate to have him as our listing salesperson.

In today's tough market, Leo's professionalism and relentless hard work had a significant impact on how quickly we were able to sell our property with outstanding results. We cannot thank him enough for his contribution to our success, and we eagerly look forward to working with him again in the near future. Leo is not only an exceptional agent but also true friend and trusted adviser.

Seller

"I highly recommend Leo Chen to be your real estate salesperson, either from a buyer's or a vendor's perspective. Matching the needs of vendors and buyers is always challenging, especially when the market is on a downtrend. Leo managed to foresee the market development months before the property was put on the market, and accurately targeted the potential buyers through his own and the Barfoot & Thompson's networks. Leo's can-do attitude and responsive working style made the difference. "

Dear David and Betty,

We are writing to thank your Leo Chen for being our real estate salesperson. From the months before we started thinking of selling our house on Stamford Park Road, then on the day the sign hit the yard, to the day we signed the papers, Leo has completely exceeded all our expectations in everyway, and we are just amazed at his knowledge and experience, and his personal warmth and interest in us took all the trepidation out.

He is full of passion for his job. His expertise and guidance have meant so much to us and played an enormous part in the sale of our home. Thank you for making this a positive and struggle-free experience.

Leo sold our home in only a week with a price much higher than our expectation at nearly 36% on top of the CV. We saw him put so much time and effort into the sale of our house, we won't sell the property at such a good price without his effort; his standard of excellence made all the difference. Thank you Leo for making this a positive and struggle-free experience.

It was a great pleasure to know Leo. Because of his hard work and the way he took the time to understand exactly what we were looking for, we managed to purchase two properties from him last year. We could not have asked for a better real estate salesperson than him. Thank you so much, Leo. We are eternally grateful. We trusted him and we will continue to support him.

We appreciate all Leo did to help us and hope to use his services again in the future.

Best regards

Gary & Karen

We are writing to thank Leo Chen for his help with the property settlement last Friday, 9 April 2021. For some unknown reason, the Vendor refused to comply with the obligation under the agreement and the conveyancing practice on settlement date, e.g. removing the rubbish and releasing the key etc.

Our client, the purchaser was considering taking further action under the agreement as we had no other options. This would make the transaction complicated and it would also be a waste of time to our client. Many thanks to Leo who facilitated this, and communicated effectively with the Vendor. Eventually the issues were resolved and our client obtained a clean house and all the keys.

We are absolutely impressed by Leo’s professional manner. As a real estate salesperson, Leo is responsible, efficient and tries to achieve the best outcome for both parties making the transaction as smooth as possible with his effort.

It was a great pleasure to work with Leo Chen. We look forward to working with him again in the near future😊

Kind regards
