About Jane
Proud owners of the 173rd Ray White office in New Zealand, Jane and Carey Simonson bring with them not only years of Real Estate experience, but an outstanding selling track record in the Taranaki region along with a strong family focus that make them the ideal choice when selling your home. That experience and the support from the wider Ray White network has seen the Ray White New Plymouth office take an immediate place among the region’s market performers and it is not surprising when you realise the extensive combined experience between the team members. Jane and Carey themselves are a couple with different, but complementary, skills and experience when it comes to the Real Estate Industry. Jane has been involved in sales and marketing since leaving school, while Carey’s careers include survey draughting, construction, house building, and offshore surveying. Both of them place emphasis on always going the extra mile - whether it’s a lawn that needs mowing before an open home, cleaning a dirty deck or getting a fireplace going on a cold day when they have buyers coming to a property - nothing is too much trouble. Add to that their superb negotiating skills and the fact that they leave no stone unturned in finding the “right” (not necessarily the first) buyer for a home and it’s no wonder that vendors love working with Jane and Carey. The amount of referrals that come in offer tangible proof of their dedication and accompanied by a superb team of like-minded sales people, admin and marketing staff, they ensure that EVERY client gets the VIP treatment and the best possible result - often far above the client’s expectations! And that’s why “you shouldn’t hand your keys out to just anyone”…

About Jijo
With 20 years experience in both residential and commercial sales, I understand what attributes to longevity and success within the real estate industry. I believe the key to building successful relationships in business and in life is a willingness to listen and to have a can-do-attitude. With a Bachelor of Commerce and Masters in Business Administration, prior to joining Ray White I held the position as Sole Operator in leasing commercial space at the World Trade Centre in Kochi, India. I was responsible for 75,000m² of high end commercial leasing and worked closely with the Property Management Team to assist and facilitate many multinational companies to secure commercial space within the World Trade Centre. With an international client portfolio which included Xerox Technologies, KPMG, IQVIA, Nielsen and UST Global, to name a few, For business, I have travelled extensively to Dubai, Kuwait and Singapore. Calm under pressure, I am incredibly detail focused. A skill I personally found valuable when overseeing the design and construction of my own home. It allowed me to experience the residential side of the real estate process from the ground up with residential sales continuing to be an important part of my business. “I value the fact that people look to me first for advice and I like to see the joy on their faces when they purchase a new home”. For me it is about creating lifelong relationships. An experienced salesperson I am not a stranger to selling residential properties having sold over 800 high end apartments and villas. With a wide range of interests I enjoy cricket, football, cooking, reading, travel and exploring new cultures. This deep interest in travel provided the catalyst for making the move to New Zealand. Myself, together with my wife and young family, are enjoying the pristine life New Zealand provides. “New Zealand is a beautiful country with endless possibilities.”

Jijo was great to deal with. We were overseas during the sale process and Jijo made it as simple as possible. He always had an answer to our questions and was consistently on the ball. We would recommend him to other's selling their house.
