Angela Thomas

Angela has joined the Real Estate team at PGG Wrightson bringing a wealth of attributes.

Brought up in the hospitality and travel industry, Angela’s strength is customer service. She was fortunate to have a job in the aviation industry as an air stewardess spanning twenty years, 12 of those years were spent in corporate aviation.

 In 2012 Angela joined Mitre 10 as a hospitality manager for the Columbus Coffee franchise which all Mitre 10 mega stores have within them. Angela was responsible for setting up, recruiting, managing and initiating ways to grow the business. She opened four stores, Rotorua M10, Cambridge M10, Christchurch CBD, and Hamilton CBD. In 2013 her Rotorua and Hamilton stores shared the Columbus Coffee Best Local Marketing Award.

Angela raised over $1400 for Breast cancer and supported Starship Hospital and the Child Cancer charity. The Hamilton store was her flagship store and in 2015 she won the Hamilton central Business Award for the People’s choice category.

Angela’s property experience comes from buying and selling property with her husband, and in doing so they have built up a substantial rental property portfolio. Having been on both sides of the fence in property deals, Angela believes she is well versed in looking after the needs and expectations of both client and customer.

Real Estate is about the people, and Angelas aim is to create the ultimate customer / client experience; consisting of excellent customer service, constant communication, attention to detail and above all to ensure a positive experience for all parties in the buying and selling process.

When not at work you will find Angela at home relaxing with her family or at a sporting fixture, the whole family are keen supporters of the Chiefs Rugby and the Northern Knights cricket. Also a keen equestrian, having produced and shown horses to a national level, competing in many disciplines including ridden hunter, working hunter, side saddle equitation and sports horse classes.

Angela also had a small equine rehabilitation / adgistement unit, horses came to her from all over the country, mostly from racehorse trainers, eventers and the Metropolitan police. Angela enjoys the outdoor life and country pursuits, as a family we certainly embrace everything this beautiful country has to offer.

Testimonial below:

Russell and Angela Thomas are a rare breed of real estate agents, they take a genuine interest in your reasons for selling and work hard to get the very best result.  When Russell and Angela first visited our property we were encouraged by their warm personalities and felt that they truly liked our property, which was why we chose them to market our house.  Throughout the time that the house was for sale Russell and Angela were thoughtful in their approach, always making sure it was a good time for them to bring people through.   Selling a house can be a nerve wracking experience, particularly an auction, but Russell and Angela (and PGG Wrightson’s Auctioneer, Sloane) ensured that we were comfortable with the process the whole way through.  We would wholeheartedly recommend Russell and Angela to anyone considering selling their property, they are kind, genuine and fun.
