Roman Hu, once a prominent figure in Chinese-language television, has successfully transitioned into one of New Zealand's leading real estate agents. His journey from media to property sales is marked by dedication, adaptability, and a commitment to excellence.
A Journey Rooted in Media and Communication
Before venturing into real estate, Hu established a notable career in the media industry. As a talk show host and program director for a Chinese-language television network, he was honored with the esteemed Silver Fern Award, presented by former Commerce Minister Paul Goldsmith. Leveraging his media expertise, Hu founded a consultancy that advised prominent entities such as Tourism New Zealand, Tātaki Auckland Unlimited, Martell, and BMW on effective media strategies.
Embracing Real Estate Amidst Global Challenges
The onset of the COVID-19 pandemic prompted Hu to reevaluate his career trajectory. Recognizing the resilience and opportunities within the real estate sector, he transitioned to a full-time real estate agent role by the end of 2021.
Rapid Ascension and Industry Recognition
Hu's momentum in the real estate industry has been noteworthy:
- 2022: Awarded "Rising Star" and "Best Customer Service" at his company. He listed over 50 properties and established his own sales team, "Team Hu."
- 2023: Achieved dual honors as Top Agent and No.1 Team at his branch, with over 70 property listings.
- 2024: Despite market challenges, Hu and his team secured Top Agent and No.1 Team in their branch and ranked among the top three in Auckland's western region. Nationally, he was recognized among “New Zealand’s top real estate agents” by OneRoof for property sales totaling $151 million and was named "Agent of the Year" for Avondale by RateMyAgent.
Commitment to Continuous Learning and Trust
Hu attributes his success to relentless learning and building trust. In 2023, he dedicated 17 hours weekly to online studies, earning top-tier real estate licenses in both New Zealand and Australia. By 2024, he was honored with the AREINZ designation (Associate of the Real Estate Institute of New Zealand). Currently, he is pursuing an online MBA degree, aiming to complete it by the end of 2025.
Trust remains a cornerstone of Hu's philosophy. Many of his developer clients have maintained partnerships with him since 2017, a testament to his reliability and integrity. With nearly 30,000 local followers on video platforms, his signature catchphrase has become widely recognized: “I’m your Big Cousin of real estate in New Zealand—helping over 400 people find their dream home in 8 years.”
Roman Hu and his five team members are now setting their sights on the 2025–2026 business year, aiming to help more people and make more dreams come true. “And hopefully,” he adds with a smile, “spend a bit more time with my family. If we hit No.1 nationwide, I’ll buy everyone on the team a watch!” With both ambition and sincerity, Roman Hu continues to inspire confidence that he and his team will indeed make those dreams a reality.
