Customer service, strong work ethic, and attention to detail. This is what Stu has particular focus on and will bring to your real estate experience. After 25 years actively marketing New Zealand and the Bay of Plenty to International tourism and education markets, in particular Japan, he now turns his skills to Real Estate joining the Bayleys Country Team in the Bay of Plenty.

Growing up in the Wairarapa Stu graduated from Massey University with a Bachelor of Business Studies majoring in marketing before teaching English in Japan for 2 years. After returning to New Zealand and moving to Tauranga in 1997, he has operated his own international business in the student tourism and education sector.
