Buying or selling a home is one of the biggest decisions you will make, and I am here to make it simple.
Before entering real estate, I spent more than 13 years as a diplomat for the Austrian government and also served as a UN Peacekeeper in the Middle East. These roles required calm under pressure, strong leadership, and advanced negotiation skills. Today, I apply those same qualities to every property transaction.
Since moving into real estate, I have achieved:
Award-winning results
Over $22M sold in my first year
Trusted by clients across Wellington and Porirua
My clients value not only the results but also the way I work. I take an organised, supportive, and professional approach, making the process as smooth and stress-free as possible.
Every sale tells a story. From first-time buyers to long-time homeowners, I’ve helped clients achieve outstanding results through strong negotiation, clear communication, and a disciplined approach.
My background in diplomacy and leadership with the UN has given me the skills to manage complex situations calmly and effectively, an edge I bring into every real estate transaction.
Proven success backed by experience, discipline, and dedication.

Ralph is very knowledgeable and really understands what buyers are looking for. He was accommodating with viewings and calls, which was important for me with my work schedule. His great sense of humour made the whole process enjoyable. We’d definitely recommend working with Ralph.

Ralph’s real estate knowledge, enthusiasm and honesty made selling our home stress free and smooth. He kept us informed at every stage and always had time for our questions. This was our fourth house sale and by far the easiest. Well done Ralph, now on to our next adventure. Well done for a great job Ralph! Now on to our next adventure :)
