Changing of the guard: Harcourts Grenadier Lin Ma
For the first time in more than 25 years, there is a new agent at the helm of Harcourts Grenadier’s success.
Lin Ma took out the coveted position, and was awarded the top salesperson title, out of more than 200 agents.
Lin has a hardworking and humble attitude, she’s efficient, trustworthy, and focuses on doing right by her clients. “We want to achieve the best dollar value for clients in the shortest time frame. If a property is on the market for too long, buyers question this.
Do it once, and do it right is my belief,” she says. “I just want to do a good job for my clients. I’m honest and straightforward.”
The real estate market continues to expand and fluctuate for those buying or selling houses. Sometimes the real stress comes from finding the right agent, with everything you’re looking for. Lin offers her clients the connections, knowledge, and expertise, to tackle the ever-changing market, and has an impressive track record to prove it. Among many achievements throughout her career, it is her repeat and referral business that proves why she is so successful. Clients just keep coming back to her.
Lin works alongside many overseas and local investors, and these connections have helped build her reputation as an outstanding agent.
She says her 21 years in the industry have resulted in having a large client base, who trust her to buy and sell. Bilingual in Chinese and English, Lin has the upper hand when it comes to connecting with both Asian and Kiwi markets. Her team of Korean, Kiwi and Chinese agents are approachable and friendly, making communications comfortable and easy.
Alongside her Salespersons Certificate, Lin holds a Bachelor’s Degree in Civil Engineering, which is what initially sparked her interest in property. Reflecting on her career so far, Lin notes the best part is achieving top dollar for clients, above and beyond what they expected. “Not only do we get their house sold, we can also change their lifestyle.”
Lin mentions that successful auction days result in happy clients, who go on to book a holiday, or upgrade their car, with the extra money from the sale.
She credits her hardworking genes to her culture, adding that it’s a desirable work ethic for an agent. And “it costs nothing more to partner with one of the industry’s best”.
