about Chris Robinson
Chris Robinson is one of Wellington’s most trusted and accomplished real estate professionals. Known for his dedication, integrity, market insight, and a results-driven approach, Chris has built a reputation for achieving exceptional outcomes for his clients time and time again. With a strong background in building and property investment, Chris brings a hands-on, practical perspective to the sales process.

Born and raised on Wellington’s south coast in a family of fishermen, Chris has a deep-rooted connection to the region. He attended Island Bay Primary School, South Wellington Intermediate, and St Patrick’s College in Kilbirnie, where he served as house captain. After completing a building apprenticeship in the eastern suburbs, he went on to renovate and invest in multiple properties across Wellington — even building his own family home in Island Bay.
Chris’s passion for real estate solidified while working in London as a Property Sales and Lettings Manager for a central city agency. Returning to Wellington, he gained further industry insight through body corporate management before moving full-time into sales with Tommy’s.
