Harcourts’ just departed New Zealand chief executive, Hayden Duncan, is going to lead the company’s first foray into Canada.
Mr Duncan, who left his role at the end of October, is moving to Canada early near year to establish a network of Harcourts franchises out of Vancouver.
Canada will be the 10th country in which Harcourts has offices. Mr Duncan says there are many reasons why Canada is an obvious choice for Harcourts.
“In many ways it is similar to New Zealand and Australia, plus it is a Commonwealth country. “The crucial difference is that consumer expectations of realtors and the real estate industry in Canada are much lower than they are in New Zealand,”
Mr Duncan says. He says that gives the company an opportunity to set a new level of expectation for real estate buyers and vendors in Canada.
