Lesley Barr

Residential, Lakes and Lifestyle Sales

Working from the Bayley’s Frankton office, Lesley Barr specialises in properties in Glenorchy – a simply stunning village nestled at the end of Lake Wakatipu and bordering the Mount Aspiring National Park.

As a long time, local resident, Lesley Barr is herself nothing short of inspiring. A businesswoman of some 20 years, she has been heavily involved in the local community while raising a family and somehow also finding time to participate in extreme sports such as the infamous Coast to Coast competition and, more recently, the New York Marathon. She has not only enjoyed the best this region has to offer, but through it, developed a resilience that is invaluable to her as an agent.

Over the years, Lesley and her husband have built and sold several homes, with the Property Press being a regular bedtime read. She is therefore mindful of the economic vulnerabilities of property ownership and works hard to provide a seamless journey for her clients.

You will find Lesley to have a fresh and honest approach to her work. She is a diligent agent with solid systems in place, keeping you well informed throughout the buying or selling process.

At work or at home, Lesley is someone who grabs life with both hands. She fully epitomises the Bayleys principal of "Altogether Better."

Working with Lesley was a great experience as she did everything we expected and more to make the sales process as smooth and positive as possible. We knew Lesley’s Glenorchy knowledge was an asset as she presented our property to locals and those new to the area and its intricacies. Lesley was professional, responsive, an excellent communicator, compassionate towards us & potential buyers and top of my wish list genuinely left no stone unturned during the sale. It was a great process for all involved and we can’t recommend Lesley highly enough.

I must say it was a pleasure to work with you on the purchase of the land at Glenorchy. Thank you for your back up and support and lovely encouragement, to basically take a leap of faith. I am currently in the process of planning my build on the land and am so excited about the future, spending time there with my horses and friends. I look forward to seeing you in Glenorchy over summer and having our celebratory glass of champagne at my place. Thank you again for making the whole process easy and smooth. Kristin

Purchasing property can be a complicated issue but with Lesley showing us the way the purchase process seemed to flow really easily. We rated having a local person with local knowledge and her availability when we needed information or on site visits. Thanks Lesley, job well done.

Christine - purchaser of 4292 Glenorchy Queenstown Rd

Lesley, recently helped us to sell our much loved house and found new buyers that I am sure will love it as we did. Lesley is passionate about what she does and the houses she works with. In our case, she was meticulous in ensuring the marketing materials were right, that anyone who was interested got to see the house, persuaded us to make a few small fixes so that everything was just right for the new owners, and she even kept an eye on the house between the auction and completion, which was just as well as a window was damaged in a storm and she arranged for it to be fixed very quickly. Our impression was that for Lesley handling our house was more than just one of multiple transactions she might be working on. She really took ownership and did everything possible to ensure that all involved had a great outcome.

“Lesley has assisted me and my family with the sale of a deceased estate property in Glenorchy. Lesley has been incredibly helpful throughout the process. She has provided us with invaluable local knowledge and advice. She has worked very hard for us. The feedback throughout and regular reporting has been very helpful. At all times we felt that we knew as much as there was to know about how the campaign was progressing. Lesley’s involvement with the process from pre-listing through to settlement has been enthusiast and tireless. She is a star!”

Sue

Whole process was conducted professionally, in an informative and helpful manner.

Kia ora Lesley A big thank you to you both for selling our house at Precipice Plateau. I really enjoyed working with you to achieve a very good result. You were an excellent team with your local knowledge and enthusiasm Lesley. Thanks so much

Trish

Lesley took my housing preferences to heart and worked as an advocate to find me properties that would suit my needs. She made the house buying experience go smoothly and was dedicated to creating a fair deal between myself and the vendor.

Sonia

We had the pleasure of dealing with Lesley when we purchased two lifestyle blocks in Glenorchy in March of this year. From our initial meeting, at which time Lesley showed us around a number of properties nothing was too much trouble, we were encouraged to take our time and have a good look over the property. Our site visits were never rushed. The properties we purchased required extensive “due diligence” Lesley was quick to respond to any queries and provide supporting information including supporting local knowledge where necessary. Prior to the auction Lesley explained the auction process and ensured we had all the relevant information and documentation. We were very impressed with Lesley and found her a pleasure to work with, her manner is relaxed and easy going but professional. After we had purchased the property, Lesley took the time to introduce us to our neighbours, this was a benefit of her being a local resident. We would highly recommend Lesley if you are looking to purchase or sell real estate in Glenorchy and the wider Queenstown area. Lee and Stephen

Lee and Steve

Lesley is a trustworthy agent who is dedicated to achieving the best results for her clients. When we were first approached by Leslie to sell our property in Glenorchy I sought a referral from others who recommended her as an excellent person of high integrity. We were not disappointed. We were approached by a number of Agents who wanted the contract but Lesley proved to be very diligent and determined to achieve the very best results for us. Although we had some reservations due to her newness in the industry, she won us over with her sincerity, honesty, ease of contact and her determination to meet our expectations. Because of her professionalism, I would highly recommend Lesley and the Team at Bayley’s.
