I treat your home like it’s my own.
Hey my name is Leigh Richmond and I started Abode, a boutique property management agency, in 2009 with the desire to do things differently and create a stress-free process for my clients. People are our highest priority. Whether you’re a landlord or a tenant, your needs always come first.
My hands-on approach to managing your home means I take the time to understand your lifestyle and needs, so the small things don’t get overlooked.
I love Westmere – I have lived there for 10 years and manage properties throughout our great suburb, as well as across Auckland. I understand the unique flair that Auckland suburbs have to offer. Simply put, I know what works and what doesn’t.
I pride myself of being a passionate, professional and experienced property manager who will effectively take care of your investment with considerable attention to detail. Get in touch today for coffee – my shout.
Let’s chat.
