Karthik Pulumati- Property Manager

Meeting people from different backgrounds and helping them achieve their goals is what makes my role as Property Manager so exciting and rewarding. I’ve joined the Barfoot & Thompson Property Management team at Papatoetoe with six years of experience in this field. I have a passion for the industry and I enjoy being part of a team that delivers a superior level of service. I believe I’m particular

ly suited to this role because of my friendly nature, understanding of technology and experience in property maintenance. When I arrived in New Zealand, I settled in Auckland and began my studies. For that reason, the city of Auckland will always be a bit special for me. While working and studying, I built a good relationship with my local community and it didn’t take long to really feel at home. I completed a Civil Engineering degree and a Post Graduate Diploma in Business Management and worked as a Construction Project Manager in residential property, which as it turned out, was my introduction to real estate. When my wife and I moved to New Zealand we left our families behind including sadly, our beautiful Shih Tzu, Oreo, the cutest dog ever! We were unable to bring him here so a friend kindly adopted him. I’m a regular gym goer and I love hiking – and go as often as I can. In addition to English, I speak Telugu, Hindi and moderate Punjabi. Barfoot & Thompson is a great team to work with, and I’m proud to be part of a company known for its family culture and service to the community. I believe in challenging myself always so call or email me at Barfoot & Thompson Papatoetoe.
