Team Exceed - Experience, Integrity and Results That Speak for Themselves

When two seasoned professionals come together with a shared commitment to honesty and results, clients notice. Scott and Stuart, known as Team Exceed, bring decades of real estate experience and a reputation built on trust to the Whakatāne district and beyond.

Scott’s journey into real estate began when two gentlemen who owned and operated Whakatāne’s longest serving agency encouraged him to make the move. The offer of a retainer helped ease the uncertainty of commission only income, and it was a decision that set the course for a career defined by community connection and client care. Stuart’s path was different but equally deliberate. After years in sales, an accident at home meant he could no longer drive as much as his previous role required. He looked for a career change and found real estate, where he has now spent over 34 years helping people buy and sell property.

Together, they form a team that combines deep local knowledge with a genuine passion for getting it right.

Joining Arizto was a turning point for both. Scott no longer wastes time defending high service fees. With a fair fee that clients can feel good about, he is free to focus on what really matters: achieving the best possible outcome for every vendor. Stuart echoes the sentiment, appreciating the ability to offer clients a great advertising package and premium Trade Me listing without the burden of a big commission or advertising costs.

“I love Arizto’s system and no longer am I wasting time defending high service fees.”

For Scott, real estate is built on three pillars: price, presentation and promotion. Getting the balance right between those three elements is what ensures the right result every time. He is also a firm believer in the power of listening. An agent, he says, must be able to truly hear what their client wants. Stuart’s approach is just as grounded. He has always treated people the way he would like to be treated, and that principle has earned him a wealth of repeat business and lasting friendships over the years.

“Honest, trust and good communication is always paramount and I would sooner walk from a deal than be associated with a bad one.”

Both Scott and Stuart believe Arizto is setting the bar for the industry. In Scott’s view, traditional brands will eventually have to change in order to survive. Big shop windows and large overheads are no longer necessary when technology and effective use of the web work so well. Stuart, who previously managed Professionals in Whakatāne and knows the costs of running a traditional office, agrees. Arizto has proved you can deliver excellent service without an office full of staff.

Scott is a third generation district councillor who spent twelve years on council, giving him an unmatched insight into the community and its framework. Whether coastal, urban or rural, he gets to experience all the elements the district has to offer, along with the diverse property options throughout. Stuart loves the climate and the charm of small town living, and that enthusiasm is something he shares with every buyer he works with.

One of Stuart’s most memorable moments in real estate had nothing to do with earning a commission. He was instructed to sell a property as a mortgagee auction. Instead of simply following the brief, he visited the owner, who had fallen on hard times, took him to a mortgage broker and helped him get back to work. The result was that the owner was able to refinance and keep his home. Stuart made no money from the transaction, but the referral that followed led to a sale, and the satisfaction of making a real difference has stayed with him ever since.

Outside of work, Scott is active in musical theatre and repertory, bringing the same energy and dedication to the stage as he does to his clients. Stuart is passionate about all forms of motor sport and treasures time with his family.
