There’s something timeless about Devonport — from the morning light glinting off the harbour to the leafy streets lined with character villas, it captures a sense of Auckland’s heritage and its forward rhythm all at once.
This week, Zoe Fisher from HouGarden had the pleasure of joining the Bayleys Devonport and Bayleys Takapuna teams for their morning sales meeting — a lively, insightful session filled with great energy and conversation.
Set against the backdrop of one of Auckland’s most desirable coastal suburbs, the discussion explored how buyer engagement is shifting in response to new market dynamics. Devonport’s appeal remains undeniable: its village-style community, highly regarded schools, and easy ferry access to the CBD make it a magnet for professionals, families, and returning expatriates.
Zoe shared HouGarden’s latest insights into how lifestyle-driven buyers, particularly within Auckland’s growing Asian community, are increasingly drawn to the North Shore. With multilingual listings, data-led marketing tools, and targeted social media campaigns, HouGarden continues to help agents reach these audiences more effectively — bridging cultural and linguistic gaps that can often limit opportunity.
The Bayleys Devonport team brought their signature mix of local knowledge, collaboration, and forward thinking to the discussion. Their passion for community and commitment to excellence were clear throughout the morning — a reminder of why Bayleys remains a trusted name in Auckland’s real estate landscape.
As the meeting wrapped up and Zoe caught a quick selfie with the team, it was easy to see why Devonport holds such enduring charm. It’s not just about beautiful homes and sea views — it’s about belonging to a place that feels like home.
HouGarden is proud to partner with Bayleys in showcasing these stories — helping agents connect, communicate, and celebrate the lifestyle that makes Devonport truly one of a kind.
