The industry challenge

Real estate has a real
reputation problem.

And honestly, it's not hard to see why. Too many agencies are environments where the client's outcome can come second to the commission. We're building something different.

At agenté, our goal is to be a positive, transformative force in real estate — to show that it's possible to put people first, do the right thing, and deliver outstanding results at the same time.

We're building people, not just a business.
Who we're looking for

Six things we
look for.

Skills can be taught. These can't. If most of these sound like you, we should talk — even if no vacancy is advertised.

You put people first

Selling a home is one of the biggest moments in someone's life. You care about outcomes, not just deals — and you mean it.

You build connection

Your network is everything. Relationships feel personal — people pick up the phone when you call.

You communicate well

Great questions, active listening, and clear options. You translate the jargon into plain English, every time.

You collaborate

Done with every-person-for-themselves environments. You pull for your colleagues and for the client. Equally.

You're tenacious

Tricky situations energise you. You see a problem, you find a way through — happy to go the extra mile when it matters.

You have character

Strong values, self-aware, honest. Secure enough to ask for help when you need it — and to admit when you've got it wrong.

Our values

Four values.
One shared standard.

Not posters on a wall. Every hire, every listing, every offer — they get filtered through these four. If it doesn't pass, we don't do it.

01

Our client is always #1

Every decision is filtered through one question: is this the best thing for our client? If not, we go back to the drawing board.

02

Integrity

Not flash cars and fancy suits. People feel that we genuinely care — because we do. No script, no act, no commission-chasing.

03

Tenacity

Built in tough markets, proven there too. The GFC, the Christchurch earthquakes, a global pandemic — we don't stop when things get hard.

04

Stronger together

Not individuals competing for the same pie. A genuine team united around one goal — your client's outcome. Always.

The agenté team working together
How we support you

This isn't a sink-or-swim environment.

We invest in our people — with the tools, frameworks, and training you need to do your best work. If you're new to agenté, you'll be supported from day one, working side by side with our most experienced agents to learn what makes the agenté way work.

We're not just building a business. We're building people.
From the team

What it's like, in their words.

No edits, no script. Just our team explaining why they're here.

Real estate is new to me, and I was very daunted at first, but everyone here has been really helpful. We've come up with a plan for me to get momentum and it's been great.

Working with agenté is such a supportive environment. You couldn't ask for better.

I care about this team, about my clients, and about who I am as a person. People see real estate agents as sharks, and I hate it. I enjoy helping people — it's my number one value in life.

I wouldn't work for any of the other real estate brands. I don't care about maximising shareholder value so partners can buy a bigger boat. I care about helping people in and out of property and solving challenging situations.

It's about the people. You're not just a number. Selling or buying a home is more than a transaction — it's all about relationships. If you look after the people, the rest follows.
