Testimonials

"Hassle free, personable approach. Ron and Erin made the process really easy, and we felt well informed all the way. Was awesome that a lot was able to be done after normal work hours as that suited our situation. 10/10 highly recommended."

Claire, David, and Liam

"Thanks heaps to Ron and Erin Grbin for all their hard work put into the sale of our property, it was a hassle-free sale that went without a hitch. Ron and Erin went the extra mile to meet with us outside of hours when needed. We would defiantly use Ron and Erin again. Highly recommend.”

Kylie & Ben

"Recently we sold our lifestyle block through Ron and Erin Grbin. Both Ron and Erin worked tirelessly to promote our residence within a limited time frame. Most days from the moment of listing to and beyond the sale we had interested parties inspecting the property. Ron and Erin always made themselves available for questions and conducted themselves in a friendly and professional manner.


Our sale was speedy (as required by our circumstances) and the sale/purchase procedure went very smoothly. I fully recommend Ron and Erin for your Real Estate needs."

Maree Kelly & Philip Freeman

We were very grateful to Ron and Megan for their hard work on our behalf in selling our property. At every stage they kept us well informed about any interest shown in our farm and kept us up to date with any progress. We found them to be honest and felt they had our best interests at heart. They were always pleasant and helpful and willing to go the extra mile for us. We especially appreciated their willingness to help with the catering for our Clearing Sale. They worked well together as a team and we benefited from their conscientious approach.

Ron Grbin has been part of the PGG Wrightson Retail team for over 18 years I have worked with Ron for all of that time. Ron has been an outstanding member of the retail team over those 18 years. Ron has consistently taken out the top Technical Field Rep for Northland these past 6 years since we had the award introduced. The key attributes that help Ron achieve these results are he has an amazing ability to form relationships not just with his customers but also key stakeholders in the agricultural industry. Ron is also technically very strong with farm systems in particular agronomy to allow his customers to get better production results whether that be milk, meat or arable/ vegetable crops. Ron Grbin also had time managing the Dargaville store which had him leading a team and in more recent times was part of the PGG Wrightson Retail Advisory Group The Retail Advisory Group is a selected group of Store Managers and TFR’s from throughout the country. They provide a link between our sales team and the wider retail business. Through leadership, communication and support, the group creates a strong network that provides a unified voice for our people clients and staff at the local regions. This group aims to make a positive difference for the PGG Wrightson Rural Supplies business, which in turn benefits our clients. Being part of this group Ron has a strong network with other key people in our business across New Zealand this group is only 12 people so a very select group and Ron has been a key member of that. Another key attribute of Ron is his work ethic and passion for his clients and industry along with his integrity. Ron is always working to do his best for his clients.

Natalie and I came to Northland in 2014. In the subsequent three years Ron has been our main technical advisor with everything to do with farming in Northland. Ron was always willing to go above and beyond what we expected of him in his professional capacity as key account manager for the Northland region for PGG Wrightson. His knowledge with everything to do with farming was excellent, his technical knowledge and ability to plan could not be faulted. Ron assisted me with the management of our maize cropping programme (up to 250ha), helped establish our red clover crop (40ha) and was integral in our summer cropping (chicory 100 ha) programme and advising us on the regrassing of this entire area (up to 450ha). He was also pivotal in training us with the management of the difficult soils we were faced with, Kaipara Clay and Limestone, from a fertility aspect as well as cultivation requirements. Also the pest control required from go to wo with all of these farming systems. He was focused on the client and the outcome for them especially when negotiating on behalf of us with the supplier around cost versus benefit. Ron on top of being a leader in his field with technical advice, he has the ability to communicate with a vast array of people from farm staff through to the owner of the business. He is a genuine person that puts the well-being of others before himself and is always on call for whatever advise is required including the low down on where the fish are biting in the Kaipara Harbour or whether spawning is underway in the Bay of Islands. I have every faith that Ron will excel in his new field and I have no hesitation in recommending him to all future clients as a trustworthy guy with an exemplary work ethic that puts people at the center of all of his decisions and recommendations.

In his role as a PGG Wrightson representative, I have known Ron Grbin for 12 years. In that time I have had many personal dealings with Ron, covering a wide range of business opportunities. He is an easy person to work with as he has a very polite but confident nature and has been very knowledgeable in the information he has provided to me. He is available at all hours and if he says he will do something, he does it. He has assisted many joint clients and I have never heard a complaint about him – in fact the opposite; he has a loyal following because he adds value to his customers. I have no hesitation in recommending Ron to anyone who requires a professional personal approach and service.
