Jay Mura

Hi I’m Jay Mura, Ngapuhi from the far north. I am number six of 13 children, and obviously this had some positive effect on me because I have tried to keep up by having six beautiful children of my own. My partner Fliss works at the Waitara Post and Lotto, and our mini Jack Russell cross poodle (Fragal) complete my extended family. You would think 6 children would be enough work to keep me busy, but I have been a special needs teacher in the far north, and I ran the Maori unit in the Hauraki Plains. I have also owned and operated my own business in Hauraki for 3½ years. I had a general store which not only provided the usual goods but also was a post office, take away and dairy, with a strong focus on customer service. I have been associated with Real Estate for over 10 years, doing property maintenance and landscaping, helping the vendors prepare their property for sale. Then I completed my Real Estate Ticket. Since completing my Real Estate Ticket I gained experience working for a short time with another company, but I have now been with Sheryl and her team at Harcourts Waitara for 2½ years, and have recently been presented with my five million dollars in sales pin. I have been focusing myself on the needs and requirements that people like your self are asking for, honesty, dedication and hard work. “Property and people are my passion and I can honestly say that I will be 100% committed to being of service to you and your property”.
