Ray White Gisborne – Redefining Real Estate in Tairawhiti

What started with a simple philosophy - it can be better - has evolved into one of Gisborne’s most trusted and successful real estate businesses.

Ray White Gisborne was founded by four of the region’s top-performing agents; Shelley Donaldson, Hamish Harrison, Tom Harbott, and Alan Thorpe, who shared a clear vision: to build a next-generation real estate agency defined by integrity, innovation, and genuine collaboration. This leadership team brings deep expertise, proven results, and an unwavering commitment to raising the bar in every aspect of the client experience.

Today, Ray White Gisborne is proud to be the market leader, known not only for achieving outstanding results but also for redefining what it means to work with a real estate company. Our culture is built on positivity, professionalism, and progress - where people always come first.

We’ve grown quickly, but intentionally - attracting a team of high-performing, values-driven experts across sales, property management, marketing, and operations. Together, we bring the localised insight of a boutique team with the reach and resources of one of Australasia’s most recognised brands.

At Ray White Gisborne, we believe excellence is never a coincidence. It’s the product of high expectations, real teamwork, and doing the right thing - every time. And while the market may change, our promise remains the same:

It can be better. And we’re here to prove it.
