About Jarred Hancox

Hi, I’m Jarred.

I’ve been living and breathing real estate since late 2012, but truth be told, it’s been the family business for as long as I can remember. I got my start with a rigorous two-year apprenticeship under Vicky Ashton before launching out on my own in 2014. Since then, I’ve helped hundreds of locals buy and sell across all price points—from entry-level sections and first homes to premium, seven-figure properties.

For me, real estate isn’t about chasing commissions; it’s about collaboration. Because I was born and bred right here, I know our neighborhoods inside and out. My goal is always to provide straightforward, expert advice, fair fees, and a marketing strategy that actually delivers—a formula that has consistently secured multiple local sales records over the years.

Outside of Real Estate
When I’m not negotiating contracts, I’m usually making the most of our incredible local environment. Surfing is a lifelong passion of mine—I’ve been fortunate enough to win 7 National Surfing titles and over 50 local events. The same focus, discipline, and determination it takes to win out in the water is exactly what I bring to the table when selling your home.

I’m also deeply proud to give back to the community that raised me, serving on the committee of the New Plymouth Surfriders’ Club for over 12 years to help foster junior surfing. When I’m off the waves, you’ll likely find me getting amongst nature on my mountain bike or winding down working in the garden.

Whether you’re looking to sell, buy, or just want a casual chat about what the local market is doing, I’m always here to help. Let’s connect.

Jarred has been an excellent Agent and really worked hard to get a great result in selling our property through a deadline sale with multiple offers. We would highly recommend him to anybody selling in Taranaki. Clare Moloney-Geany and Peter Geany

It was a difficult time for our family losing our mum and selling the family home. Jarred was sensitive to our needs and made what could have been a stressful experience to one that was smooth and processed without any problems. He had a tight time frame to use and made the deadlines without fuss. As we were a group of four, he made sure we got good clear information and took into account our individual needs. My aunt is in a rest home who in part owned the house also. Jarred made sure she understood what was going on, and where she had difficulty, Jared helped her out. He had a great sense of the market and attention to detail, getting the house seen in more ways than one.

This is the second home that Jarred has sold for us, and both have had positive results. I would go back to Jarred to sell again if required and recommend him to others for sure. Simon Martin

Selling our property from overseas felt daunting at first, but working with Jarred Hancox made the entire process incredibly seamless. From day one, his professionalism, market insight, and clear communication gave us complete confidence throughout the process. Jarred has been extremely reassuring—always available to answer our questions, no matter how big or small.

He offered honest advice and developed a strong marketing strategy, keeping us informed at every stage. We were thrilled with the interest generated and ultimately with the sale result, which exceeded our expectations! The entire experience was smooth and we couldn’t be more grateful. Thank you so much! We wholeheartedly recommend Jarred to anyone thinking of selling their property! Kylie Tukuitonga and Danny Kaweroa

Jarred helped us get into our new home. He was fantastic to deal with. We never felt pressured or pushed, he also felt extremely trustworthy and honest which was refreshing especially getting us into our first home. He helped us with all our silly questions and was very patient with us. We couldn’t be more happy with our new slice of paradise on 45 and we are so happy and grateful that Jarred made it so simple and easy for us. If you need a good honest realestate agent then I’d 100% recommend Jarred! I’ve also seen him surf and he rips! Thanks for everything JROD!

We recently sold a property through Vicky Ashton & Jarred Hancox. Our home was sold after only 3 working days of being on the market! Throughout all transactions and negotiations Jarred was both professional, friendly and supportive. Jarred offered advice when needed, kept us up to date with progress and guided us through the quick and efficient sale of our home. He definitely made the whole experience operate as smoothly as possible and with the least amount of stress. We would have no hesitation in recommending him as an excellent real estate agent to anyone considering selling their home.

Selling a home can be stressful. Decisions, open homes, keeping it tidy (especially with 3 small children) but with Jarred it wasnt. Communication was always honest and timely, we always knew what was happening through every step of the process. We’re so happy with our outcome and would highly recommend Jarred to anyone wanting to sell their home.

We were looking for an agent to help us sell our Torbay St property and stumbled across Jarred at Urban Studio, having dealt with Vicki when we bought the house. Having met Jarred we immediately felt comfortable dealing with him as his genuineness and honesty were immediately apparent – and he seemed to know what he was talking about. These first impressions were reinforced throughout the sale process as Jarred was always working to maximise the result for us through constantly reviewing his marketing strategy and approach to reflect changing market conditions. Jarred also seemed to have the ability to win the confidence of prospective purchasers – undoubtedly a result of his genuineness – with the result that they were willing to continue with their purchase investigations more than they perhaps otherwise would. We would highly recommend Jarred – and the team from Urban Studio – to anyone looking for an agent in New Plymouth. Tina Cooke & Iain Currill

When looking to choose an agency to sell a home for us, our first impressions of Urban Studio Properties were via a very strong web presence with a user friendly website. These factors plus a recommendation from friends, led us to choose Jarred Hancox to market the property for us. From the outset Jarred came across as very clear thinking, well organised and a great communicator. His marketing plan was thorough and well thought out and from the first day to market there was immediate interest with a sale contract signed within the first ten days. We highly recommend Jarred for not only the integrity he brings to his profession but his accuracy in assessing the market value and getting a better figure for the home than we imagined. What can be a daunting experience for many turned out to be an effortless, positive experience for us.
Thank you Jarred.

Jarred was my Real Estate agent at Bayleys in 2022. He provided great service. He helped us with realistic goals, up to date market data, and a good idea of the market in our area. He was professional in his conduct and I felt at ease with process knowing he had put all the info on the table for us. He helped in what can be a stressful process to a manageable and successful outcome. I would definitely recommend Jarred to my friends and family.
