Jenny Dekker

I began my real estate career in 2007 and have developed a solid reputation as a professional due to my commitment and work ethic.

In 2010 I was awarded the Bayleys Ruapehu Residential Marketing Award and is the recipient of the Bayleys Ruapehu Sales Person Award for 2009, 2011, 2012, 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016 and 2017 and the Silver Achievers Club Award. Each of these accolades recognised that with effective marketing I consistently achieved the best possible results for my clients. I am constantly looking for a fresh approach when marketing my properties and give everyone full attention, regardless of price.

My previous 20 year career in dental therapy and raising three daughters makes all the difference in this industry where it is important to be a skilled communicator. I am able to deal with a range of different personalities, ages and socio-economic groups due to my experiences in small town New Zealand.

I have an excellent success record, thrive in a competitive environment and enthusiastic in my desire to achieve the best possible result for my clients. My vendors can be sure of a high level of personal motivation and self-discipline, along with total dedication to the effective marketing of each property.

I have lived in the Waimarino for thirty years and am extremely enthusiastic about the area. I believe the area offers a diverse range of opportunities for property investment. From the beautiful outdoor playground, encompassing two National Parks (Whanganui and Tongariro) comes a huge potential - vastly untapped.

I enjoy a range of sports year round in this area including skiing, tramping, tennis and swimming.

'We have known Jenny now for nearly 10 years. Over this time, Jenny has guided us throughout the sale and purchase of several properties in Ohakune. We have found Jenny to be both extremely professional and patient as a real estate agent. She always place the interests of her clients first, rather than being after a quick house sale. She is enjoyable to work with while also having significant local knowledge of the Ohakune and greater Ruapehu region. We're very excited to be shortly moving into another new home in the area, which Jenny has sold to us. She is definitely our 'Go To' person for anything in Ohakune now. We would have no hesitation in recommending her real estate services to people looking to purchase property in the Ruapehu area.'

'Jenny patiently (and persistently) followed up with us throughout the time we were trying to sell it ourselves.So after unsuccessfully selling the property, eventually we decided to list the property with her.She made some suggestions for improvement to the property, and helped us find the help we needed to complete those improvements.Her suggestions enabled us to raise the asking price by 15%!.An offer came in within a month of listing the property with Jenny, and it was for the full asking price! .We are so happy to have listed with Jenny, and will definitely count on her for future real estate transactions in Ruapehu.'

Jenny's skills are beyond compare - she is knowledgeable, experienced and so generous with her time and advice. It's been an absolute delight to have Jenny help us buy a property on the Central Plateau, and then help us sell it again many years later. We recommend Jenny's exemplary services to anyone considering listing a property for sale in this beautiful region.

Kat and Tony 

Jenny saw exactly what our needs were regarding the sale of the house and gave us the right advice for preparing the house for sale. She recommended a very good workman to do essential work, and consequently our house was sold within a month.  She kept us informed at all times and was a pleasure to deal with. Bayleys expedited the paperwork quickly and efficiently. Thank you very much indeed.

Janet and Mike Secker

During November of 2018, we reluctantly came to the decision to sell our chalet in Ohakune. We designed and had it built 23 years earlier and it has been a place of many great days together with family and friends.

After our evaluation of the market and how to sell this property we decided to list on a "sole agent" basis with Jenny Decker of Bayleys in Ohakune. A key part supporting this decision was Jenny's  30 or so years of work in the Ohakune area, and her knowledge of the market and process.

We came to accept an offer within 3 weeks of the formal listing in March 2019 and settled a month later. 

The work done by Jenny was excellent. Her advice and assistance was invaluable, and greatly appreciated by us. We are very happy with the process and outcome of the sale.

We are very comfortable in recommending Jenny to other potential vendors for a possible sale of their property in the Ohakune area.
