With more than two decades of experience in real estate, Richard Hubbard has built a reputation as one of the Tauranga region’s leading rural and lifestyle property specialists. A proud local, Richard has spent most of his life in Tauranga and brings an in-depth understanding of the wider rural community, along with extensive expertise across rural, lifestyle, orchard and farm sales.
Richard’s strong connection to the horticultural industry began early, completing an orchard cadetship after leaving school before establishing and operating a successful contracting business within the fruit packing sector. His hands-on industry knowledge was further enhanced through farming experience in the United Kingdom and the completion of a business diploma.
Now a multi award-winning sales consultant with Harcourts, locally, regionally and nationally, Richard is recognised for his professionalism, integrity and commitment to delivering exceptional personal service. His practical experience, local knowledge and genuine passion for the rural sector allow him to consistently achieve outstanding results for his clients across Tauranga and the wider Bay of Plenty region.
We worked with Richard Hubbard who successfully sold our property for us. Richard's customer service was outstanding, easy to liaise with, always replied promptly and kept us well informed throughout the whole process. An absolute pleasure to work with.
Richard Hubbard covered every aspect of the sales process and expertly walked us through it, meaning we had absolutely no stress despite the fact it's the first time we've ever sold property and we'd been there for 44 years. At every step of the way we had all the information and support we needed. The auction team at the Tauranga office were professional, friendly, and very helpful. We cannot recommend the team, and Richard in particular, highly enough.
When it came time for Shaun and I to sell our lifestyle property in Tauranga, we both agreed that Richard Hubbard of Harcourts was going to be the agent for us. We had met Richard a number of years ago when we were initially looking to purchase a lifestyle property and we were very impressed with the service and attention we received at that time. Richard was with us every step of the way when it came for us to sell our lifestyle property – he was very easy to communicate with and kept us well informed throughout the entire process. If you are looking for a real estate agent to sell your property, we would highly recommend Richard. -Shaun and Briar Hutchings
