Jo Say

Sales & Marketing Consultant

Arriving in New Zealand in 2004, Jo began her professional career as Head of Drama at Nelson College for Girls. She later established a successful property development company specialising in remodelling homes for resale. She also had her own life-coaching business. Both these experiences combined creativity, business acumen, and a genuine passion for helping people achieve their goals.

In the UK, Jo worked in the film industry, managing large teams and coordinating complex productions. This fast-paced environment sharpened her organisational skills, attention to detail, and ability to remain calm under pressure - qualities that now serve her clients well throughout every real estate transaction.

Having travelled extensively, Jo quickly builds genuine rapport with people from all walks of life. Clear communication, practical problem-solving, and a healthy sense of humour are hallmarks of her approach.

Her background in photography, interior design, and property development gives her a keen eye for presentation and she has the ability to recognise a property's full potential. She is passionate about sustainable construction. 

Jo is an active member of the Nelson community, volunteering as a Big Brothers Big Sisters mentor and supporting local arts and cultural diversity. She has served as Chair of the Fairfield House Executive Committee.

Whether you're buying your first home, selling a treasured property, or investing for the future, today's market requires experience, sound advice, and skilled negotiation. Jo would be delighted to meet for a confidential, no-obligation chat to discuss your property goals.

Responsive manner, quick feedback and clearly working for us.

A O'REILLY & J RUSSELL

Jo Say sold our home for us. She has insight which means marketing your home is done really well. The photography was so good we almost wanted to stay! We had also seen Jo in action at other open homes, and we really liked her approach: interested in you as a buyer as to what you are looking for but not pushy which makes you want to leave the property! So, we knew she would market our home well, and she did. A good price in a good time frame and an all-round happy contract. Jo communicates well, is fun to work with and is someone I hope we will continue to see over the years as she is a genuinely good person. We encourage others to list with her when the time comes.

P & G STENT

Jo is really friendly and helpful. We are out-of-town buyers and had several needs for multiple people to visit and inspect the property. Jo never made us feel like a burden and often offered suggestions for builders or inspectors to use. Overall, an easy and good experience. We can’t wait to get our hands on the keys and settle in.

H STERLING & K WARMINGTON

Jo was just absolutely amazing as she guided us through the selling process. She was very knowledgeable, very proactive, very practical, very patient while being very aware of our situation. She was so empathetic and caring as she dealt with our sale, keeping us informed all the way while being aware of our need to sell albeit it reluctantly. Our thanks to Jo, she was a delight to deal with.
