Jacob Heatley-Adams is a superstar guy in real estate on Waiheke. He is incredibly personable and very knowledgeable, as well as supportive. He helped me navigate the somewhat challenging at times, sale of my property remotely, as I had already left Waiheke prior to selling. He consistently went out of his way to assist me, even advising me on properties I was looking at off island. I would recommend using Jacob in a heartbeat if you’re interested in selling or buying a property on Waiheke. He really is the genuine article!
