Grant Cochran

I grew up in northland and attended Paihia primary school and Kamo High.   I left NZ shortly after my 18^th birthday and travelled and worked abroad returning at 25yrs old.

I worked in a variety of industries and roles in my early years before deciding to study and becoming a Registered Nurse.  I spent 16 years working as an RN in ICU units in Whangarei hospital and in several hospitals in Australia, and working in a few remote hospitals in remote Australia.

After returning again to NZ, I was Clinical Nurse Manager at BOI hospital before moving to the Village Manager role at Kerikeri Retirement Village.   As a Nurse I really developed my attention to detail and my compassion for helping people through big moments.  I hope to carry that ethic through to my new career in real estate.

I have always had a passion for real estate and Hallie (wife / love of my life) and I have bought, renovated and sold properties together.  We are now settled on our 5 acre lifestyle block with our latest (and last) renovation project of a home we relocated up from Auckland.

Out two kids are at Kerikeri High School and we all enjoy boating and exploring this beautiful region we live in.   When I’m not playing with Hallie and the kids or working on the house / property, you will find me spearfishing somewhere along this great coastline of ours.
