Following a spell with another real estate agency, Jason returned to PGG Wrightson Real Estate as a Tararua-based Rural and Lifestyle Sales Consultant in January 2025, focusing particularly on Pahiatua, Eketahuna and Dannevirke, though also taking in the wider Manawatu and Wairarapa regions.

Jason has a reputation as a strong communicator, fully committed to working with vendors and purchasers to best achieve their property and business goals. A natural born relationship builder with a passion for the rural community, he prides himself on his people skills, ability to negotiate and exceptional customer service.

For three consecutive years in his previous real estate role, Jason won Agent of the Year for the Central Region.
