Decades spent managing Queenstown businesses have positioned Fred Bramwell as an industry leader. Clear vision and strong decision-making are the bywords of Fred’s leadership style, allowing him to develop and execute company strategy whilst always keeping the big picture in mind. 

An understanding of the skills needed at every level of the business mean Fred has an appreciation for every team member in every department. Compliance with real estate law and codes of conduct are all part of the job, and an area in which Fred thrives with his uncanny ability to see every side and implement ideas and concepts to identify issues before they arise, and negotiate smart solutions when necessary. 

A Queenstown local for more than 28 years, Fred’s business acumen in the early days led him to start a successful white-water rafting business, a company that made him a major player on the region's booming tourism stage. A move into real estate was the obvious progression for performance-driven Fred. Fred’s business acumen and drive to succeed helped his former real estate agency, hoamz, go from rank outsiders to Queenstown’s leading real estate agency in just a few short years. Alongside residential and commercial sales, Fred specialised in the burgeoning apartment market, correctly identifying the niche as the ‘next big thing’ in real estate. 

A lifelong interest in the property market, has seen Fred involved in residential, rural and commercial investing. "It's a fascinating business and Queenstown is unique in its investment opportunities. It has been for years, it still is, and I don't see anything changing that for some time to come," says Fred.

A family man with a love for the great outdoors, Fred’s always on hand and takes the time to make a personal connection with property sellers.

The name ‘Quilly’ has become synonymous with real estate in Queenstown – and with good reason. An epic career spanning more than a decade has cemented Brendan Quill’s position as the go-to-guy for results. Prior to his leap into real estate (anyone who knows Quilly will confirm he’s more of a leaper than a stroller), prominent positions in Queenstown tourism had already placed him firmly on everyone’s radar as a good kiwi bloke with a top sales pedigree and a personality that can brighten up a dull day.

Results speak for themselves in real estate, and Quilly’s talk louder than most. Word of mouth recommendations ensure Brendan’s phone rings – a lot. Local charitable works as MC, commentator and of course auctioneer mean he’s a busy man. Sought-after for his ability to entertain a crowd, the family man can extract every last dollar from an auction room, be it corporate, charitable or real estate, with a seasoned mixture of acumen, negotiation and pure cheek. His list of satisfied customers reads like a phone book, and everyone comes back for more. 

Finely-tuned negotiation techniques and an ‘outside the box’ approach mean he has the skills to bring deals together in a quick timeframe.

Three decades of experience in the real estate industry mean Stephen Hebbend brings to his clients the benefit of having listed and sold property in every kind of market and economic scenario. With thousands of successful sales and satisfied customers, his work ethic, knowledge and ability to find solutions set Stephen apart.

From a young age, Stephen realised that the only way to succeed in the industry was to apply genuine commitment in every aspect of his work. "I've always endeavoured to do the right thing by my clients," he says. The formula paid off, developing many long term business relationships and allowing his career to thrive.

By 2002 he was an associate of the Real Estate Institute of New Zealand and his career had propelled him to the highest echelons of the industry in the Southern region. Stephen’s been in key advisory roles to staff throughout his career. Working as one of the most experienced sales consultants in the Colliers Otago team, he says “With the extremely efficient, high tech systems in place to assist with the running of the office, I'm able to do what I enjoy the most; listing and selling property".

A keen sportsman - Stephen's completed a number of half-marathons and fundraising long-distance cycle rides - he recognised a similar appeal in real estate; the chance to train hard to become the best.

Helena’s key areas of expertise are in the marketing and sales of large scale, residential and mixed use property development projects.

Helena joined the Colliers International project marketing team in 2015 with a core understanding of property, and a wealth of key project marketing experience gained predominantly in Sydney, Australia. Prior to joining Colliers International, Helena worked as a member of the in-house sales and marketing team for Frasers Property Australia.

Frasers Property specialises in medium to large scale, high-end, residential and mixed use property development projects. The most notable of which was the AUD$2BN master-planned community, Central Park Sydney, encompassing an entire city block in downtown Sydney. This involved multiple residential stages, a 5 level retail centre and commercial campus.

Before entering the property development industry, Helena obtained a Bachelor of Property at Auckland University. This lent a great base knowledge of all things property related for her experiences abroad in Sydney, London and Hamburg.

Having returned to live in New Zealand, Helena is utilising her knowledge and skills from the international arena to provide specialised project marketing expertise to residential projects in New Zealand with Colliers International.
