About Chris Day Lowe & Co Karori

Lowe & Co is a Wellington real estate agency operating under AndCo Realty Ltd (Licensed REAA 2008), based at 8 Kent Terrace in Mount Victoria, with a further office in Karori. The agency describes its ambition as becoming Wellington's foremost property consultancy, aiming to be progressive in how it links people with homes that suit them.

Services cover buying (current listings, open homes, sold listings and a map view of properties), selling (including a free property appraisal, a defined sales process and case studies), renting through its Lowe & Co Property Management arm, and mortgage advice through AndCo Mortgages — all part of the wider AndCo Realty Group.

The agency frames its culture as being 'all about people', describing selling a home as as much an emotional decision as a financial one, and positioning its close-knit team as working collaboratively rather than purely competitively. Agents share listings with each other and draw on shared buyer networks, with an agent receiving almost half the commission if they sell a colleague's listing — a model the company calls 'coopetition'. Behind the scenes, agents are supported by 'the Engine Room', a team of property coordinators working at a 2:1 support ratio (compared to an industry average of 10:1), intended to free up around 30 hours of an agent's time to focus on finding buyers.

The Karori office is led by salesperson Chris Day, who has over 12 years of experience in the industry and has won multiple awards for his work.

Lowe & Co: Wellington Real Estate With a Collaborative Agent Culture

Lowe & Co is a Wellington-based real estate agency, operating under AndCo Realty Ltd and licensed under the REAA 2008, with its main office at 8 Kent Terrace in Mount Victoria and a further office in Karori. The agency's stated ambition is to become Wellington's foremost property consultancy, positioning itself as progressive within a sector it wants to help modernise.

Buying, Selling, Renting and Financing

Lowe & Co covers the full property journey. On the buying side, its site offers current listings, open homes, sold listings and a map view for browsing properties geographically. For sellers, the agency offers a free property appraisal as a starting point, backed by a defined sales process and case studies showing past results. Renting is handled through Lowe & Co Property Management, and mortgage advice is available through AndCo Mortgages — all connected under the broader AndCo Realty Group.

'All About People'

Lowe & Co is explicit that it sees selling a home as an emotional decision as much as a financial one, and describes its approach as compassionate and dedicated, aiming to keep clients supported at every step. That people-first framing extends to how the agency talks about its own team, describing working with Lowe & Co as joining a close-knit family of hard-working, result-focused agents.

A Collaborative Agent Culture

Rather than agents working in isolation, Lowe & Co structures its team around shared listings and shared buyer networks. If one agent sells a colleague's listing, they receive almost half the commission — a deliberately built-in incentive the agency calls 'coopetition', encouraging agents to cooperate rather than compete purely for their own listings. The idea is that this produces a stronger team with a wider, more powerful network of buyers than any single agent could build alone.

Support Behind the Scenes

Lowe & Co backs its agents with what it calls 'the Engine Room' — a dedicated team of property coordinators handling administrative work so agents can focus on selling. The agency states its support ratio runs at 2:1, compared to an industry average of 10:1, a difference it says frees up around 30 hours of an agent's time to spend finding buyers for their listings rather than managing paperwork.

Leadership at Karori

The Karori office is led by Chris Day, a salesperson with more than 12 years of experience in the industry. Chris has built a reputation as one of the region's most successful agents, having won multiple awards for his work, and is available directly by phone or email for anyone in the Karori area looking to sell.

Joining the Team

Lowe & Co also actively recruits, framing itself as a destination for real estate agents wanting to take the next step in their careers. The agency describes a collaborative, transparent team environment where effort and achievement open doors to further opportunities and career development, and says it's constantly looking for skilled people with fresh ideas to add to its growing team.
