Welcome to Otago Real Estate, a prestigious and well-established real estate agency located in the heart of Dunedin, New Zealand. Founded in 1987 by Chris James, our boutique, family-owned business has grown from its humble beginnings to become a leading figure in the local property market.

Situated in the recently renovated Moray Chambers on Moray Place, our office exudes elegance and professionalism, reflecting our commitment to providing exceptional service to our clients. With a dedicated team of six experts, including our experienced managers Nick James and Carolyn, we specialize in property investment and management, catering to a diverse portfolio that includes commercial, retail, and residential properties.

At Otago Real Estate, we take pride in our extensive range of properties, which spans from the vibrant wharf precinct to the bustling central Dunedin and even student accommodation. One of our most notable assets is the stunning Savoy Building, home to the renowned Savoy Reception Centre. As trustees of numerous Heritage Category 1 and 2 properties, we have undertaken extensive restoration projects to bring these historical gems up to modern standards, ensuring our tenants enjoy comfortable contemporary spaces.

In addition to our commitment to heritage preservation, we have also ventured into modern developments, such as The Chamberson Hotel. Our dedication to excellence has been recognized through various awards, including the prestigious Award of Excellence 2019 at the Property Council New Zealand Industry Awards and the Supreme Winner 2019 Award at the Dunedin City Council Outstanding Heritage Re-Use Awards.

While Dunedin is our primary focus, we also manage a smaller portfolio of properties in the picturesque towns of Queenstown and Arrowtown. Our experienced in-house maintenance team, led by Henri and Simon, takes care of all property upkeep, from minor repairs to large-scale renovations and commercial fit-outs, ensuring our properties remain in top condition.

Chris James, our founder, continues to be actively involved in the real estate industry, bringing his passion and expertise to every aspect of our operations. Nick James, now managing the day-to-day running of our portfolio, oversees new investments, renovations, developments, property management, leasing, and maintenance. Carolyn, our dedicated Property Manager, brings years of experience and a deep understanding of the Dunedin real estate market to her role.

Joining our team in 2021, Melissa brings over 15 years of Personal Assistant and Secretarial experience, gained from working for a prestigious property estate in London.
