About Vanessa
Vanessa Bickerton is a licensed real estate agent with Barfoot & Thompson, with more than $30 million in settled residential property sales.
Her connection with Auckland’s western and north-western suburbs is personal as well as professional. Vanessa has lived in Titirangi, Te Atatū South, Te Atatū Peninsula, Hobsonville and West Harbour before making Schnapper Rock home.
Her real estate experience was built largely across West Auckland, with practical experience across family homes, investment property, development opportunities and properties requiring careful positioning.

Experience, care and clear advice
I bring practical real estate experience, advanced New Zealand real estate qualifications through to Level 6, and a strong focus on compliance, preparation, and clear client communication.
For homeowners, that means you are not left guessing. I help you understand the information in front of you – including property documents, buyer feedback, market demand, preparation steps, and the decisions that need to be made before selling.
My approach is calm, practical, and straight-talking. I aim to help clients feel prepared, informed, and supported from the first property conversation through to the next step.
