For many, Harcourts is a name filled with history and yet for others it is a name synonymous with the future. This is the story of a great New Zealand company - where it came from and where it is headed. This is the story of Harcourts.
From way back in 1888 when JB Harcourt first realised there was a gap in the real estate market serving a fast growing population, to the success Harcourts enjoys today, it has been an extraordinary journey. A journey characterised by innovation, commitment, foresight and ingenuity. A journey that results in one of New Zealand's many success stories. And so our story begins ...
Harcourts continued to diligently set up branches across New Zealand, all the while having its sights firmly set on the Australian market aswell. In 1997, the dream became reality as Mike Green, former franchise owner, headed across the ditch to spearhead the 'Harcourts-isation' of Australia. Over the course of a few years, the big blue signs went up in all six Australian states and Harcourts became the fastest growing real estate company in Australasia. With a background in all areas of the company to his current role as Managing Director Mike is, quite simply put, the past, the present and the future of Harcourts.
Since Mike and Paul took over the reins in 1999, Harcourts has expanded even further with more than 800 offices now in Fiji, China, Hong Kong, Botswana, Zambia, South Africa, Indonesia and the United States. As a company, Harcourts has always honoured success and each and every milestone reached was celebrated. In 2000, the prestigious Harcourts Hall of Fame was introduced to acknowledge the extraordinary contribution certain people had made to the successes, growth and stability of the Harcourts brand. Each year new members are inducted into this elite group of people. While Harcourts is quick to recognise and applaud success within the group, they themselves have been honoured for exceptional success and achievement on an international basis. In 2003, Mike Green was honoured by being invited to join the New Zealand Business Roundtable, New Zealand's leading business organisation.
