Barfoot & Thompson teams with New Zealand Association for Migration and Investment

Barfoot & Thompson is reinforcing its commitment to working with Auckland’s ethnic communities by becoming the official real estate partner of the New Zealand Association for Migration and Investment (NZAMI).

NZAMI is the professional association for migration advisers and those who access their services. Its members advise on New Zealand immigration policy and settlement services available to new migrants.

Auckland is home to New Zealand’s most ethnically diverse population and Barfoot & Thompson is proud to have a similarly diverse team of salespeople with more than 37 different ethnicities represented.

Director Peter Thompson says, “The role of honour for our top 10 salespeople in the year to March includes 7 who were born outside New Zealand and have migrated here. Not only have we helped a number of new migrants establish very successful real estate careers, we have also helped countless migrant families find their first home in this city.”

“We have a clear goal to maintain our position as the real estate company of choice in Auckland and that includes being the real estate company of choice for the city’s many ethnic communities. Becoming a business partner of NZAMI reflects our commitment in this area and will be supplemented by a range of other activities aimed to engage and involve Auckland’s ethnic communities.”

NZAMI Chairman Richard Howard says, “We’re delighted to have Auckland’s leading real estate company on board as a business partner and look forward to developing a close and mutually beneficial working relationship with them.”
