Richard Lyne

Having proven his ability to operate at the highest level, Richard Lyne has operated in the mid to top tier of property in Auckland’s Eastern Suburbs and waterfront since 2005. An experienced professional with a wealth of property knowledge, he has delivered outstanding results brokering some of the top sales ever recorded in Remuera.  He joins New Zealand Sotheby’s International Real Estate as it is in a growth phase, expanding into the Eastern Suburbs. Richard saw clear alignment between the boutique brand and his own personalised service.  “The company is performing extremely well at the top end, particularly with some high-end projects. I’m keen to further that success by leveraging opportunities with my clientele. It makes sense to partner with a global agency like New Zealand Sotheby’s International Realty,” he says. For Richard, selling is not just about the transaction. He focuses on building authentic relationships, developing strong connections through close discreet communication. Confidentiality is a given and he often sells ‘under the radar’. Not only is he well-networked, but he is an extraordinary negotiator with an analytical mind, so the deal naturally follows.  Sales and client service are in his blood. After a knee injury cut his aspiration of a professional squash career short, he began selling IT services in London 20 years ago and was involved in helping an iconic New Zealand apparel brand elevate their profile during the 2004 Olympics.  His early technology and media sales training has been invaluable in preparing him for a property career. Then there’s the empathy that follows from numerous house renovations and moves that see the gypsy in him keen to get involved in the pivotal transactional moments in his clients’ lives. Energetic, positive and still very sports-focused, Richard is a committed family man. In his spare time he is reigniting the Remuera Rackets Club as a fulcrum of the community.  Call him today to champion your next move and maximise your success.
