Nicki Kempthorne

Residential, Apartment and Tourism Sales and Marketing

Nicki’s professional life began in Palmerston North, where she owned and ran a café, restaurant and catering business for eight years.  While still working in her busy business she completed her Real Estate qualification and launched into the residential market there, winning the Rookie of the Year award after only six months.

Adventure called however, and after selling the food business Nicki and her family moved to the Bay of Islands where she began building her knowledge of the tourism market with Bayleys Paihia. For two years in a row she won their top tourism sales award. She also represented Bayleys at two United Kingdom Expos, selling New Zealand to the world.

Back in the Bay of Islands, Nicki continued her foray into the tourism side of the Real Estate industry, while also purchasing the management rights of Edgewater Palms Apartments - a busy, luxury complex on the Paihia waterfront. This soon dominated her time.

Back in Real Estate she had the perfect opportunity to fully understand this exciting and bustling market, and fine tune her skills. Some 20 plus years later, selling apartments, hotels, motels and top end residential property is now her real estate expertise.

With a bubbly personality, she truly enjoys the easy relationships she develops with both vendors and buyers, fully understanding the many needs of both and linking them together for the benefit of both. Her life in the apartment complex and intimate knowledge of all motels, hotels, apartments and hostels, and of course those wonderful Far North residential properties put Nicki in the perfect position to continue a rewarding career with Bayleys.

Nicki welcomes and is excited by this new phase of her career, one where vendors and buyers alike will benefit from her experience and dedication to achieving the best outcomes possible in what is always a challenging market. Her results speak for themselves, and she looks forward to using her knowledge and exceptional abilities to bring about the results her clients expect and deserve.

They are friendky, approachable and all questions from the buyers side were dealt with promptly

Johann and Catharina Preiss

Dealing with Nicki and Lucy during the sale of our property has been an absolute pleasure. They have been transparent realistic, open honest and always did what they said they would do, which inspires trust and confidence. Their relationship with each other and with us has been professional friendly and most importantly authentic. Best property experience we have ever had and we will refer them to everyone we know looking to buy or sell properties in the Far North.

Wayne Wild and Myrn Cochran Wild

Susan Woodroffe

I like the way Nicki supports both, the vendor and the buyer. She is always quick to respond, no time wasted. And she is an awesome person.

Olga and Ivan Reutskiy

Lucy & Niccki have both been wonderful. Lucy in partiular is very helpful in setting the house up for Open home days. Well done girls you made a great sale.

Ian & Elizabeth Taylor

We interviewed Nicki Kempthorne and Lucy Doull prior to marketing our house and were impressed by the professional attitude and thoroughness they displayed in talking over marketing options etc . for our property and took away all our stress about the process. We went ahead and marketed through Nicki and Lucy and was not disappointed. With weekly written and verbal vendor reports about marketing progress and open home feedback , we knew we were in good hands with this partnership and when we did get to auction we got a great result and achieved a figure not seen in our area before .We would thoroughly recommend the Nicki Kempthorne / Lucy Doull team to any prospective clients.

I found Nicki and Lucy to be thorough and confident at every stage of our house sale process, including when NZ went in a COVID-19 Alert Level 4, which resulted in the cancellation of our auction. Nicki and Lucy advised us to move the house sale to a deadline sale and a week later we had three offers on the property. After accepting our preferred offer, they proceeded to deliver exceptional service by facilitating some repair works required for the settlement, which we could not complete ourselves due to COVID-19 travel restrictions. In addition, they resolved several concerns and questions that the buyer and we had in a timely fashion and with the highest level of professionalism during the month from acceptance of the offer to the settlement date. The service provided to us by the Bayleys' team in the Far North and specifically from Nicki and Lucy has been outstanding and made the house sale process enjoyable. I recommend them to anyone looking to sell their property
