John Kettle The Wellington Apartment Specialist at Tommy's.

Licensed salesperson in compliance with the Real Estate Agents Act 2008 as administered by the REAA (Real Estate Agents Authority)

If you’re selling an apartment in Wellington, you need more than a generalist - you need a true apartment specialist. That’s exactly what you get with John Kettle.

John focuses almost exclusively on inner-city apartments in Te Aro, Wellington Central, and Thorndon. Having lived in apartments himself since 2009, he knows what attracts buyers and how to present properties for maximum appeal.

John also brings valuable governance knowledge, with eight years on the Body Corporate committee of a significant inner-city apartment complex. Each year he represents the building in its insurance renewal process, giving him unique insight into compliance and disclosure requirements - knowledge that helps vendors avoid surprises and achieve smooth transactions.

As part of Tommy’s Real Estate, John is backed by a multi-award-winning team, including the 2024 REINZ Best Salesperson Award, Community Winner, and Sustainability Award. His own results speak for themselves: in the past 12 months, he has sold 26 apartments and currently manages nine active listings.

Sellers consistently praise John’s professionalism, energy, and follow-through:
“John has been a pleasure to deal with… delivers on all their pre-sales promises.”
