In 2021 I became the first auctioneer in NZ to integrate Te Reo into a Real Estate Auction and used the National REINZ Auctioneering Championships to do so. 4 years later in 2025, many now use basic greetings, pronounce Maori words better and utilize, tahi, Rua & toru more throughout their calls. It still needs more use in the Real Estate Industry and I still push for more use myself. My hope is by 2075, well after im gone, auctioneers and leaders in this industry have integrated more if not utilizing it fully within their communications

I te tau 2021, ko au te kaiwhakatū tuatahi o Aotearoa kia whakauru i te reo Māori ki roto i tētahi hokohoko whare, ā, i whakamahi hoki au i te Whakataetae Kaiwhakatū ā-Motu a REINZ hei whakatutuki i tēnei. E whā tau i muri mai, i te tau 2025, kua maha ngā kaiwhakatū e whakamahi ana i ngā mihi māmā, e tika ake ana te whakahua i ngā kupu Māori, ā, e whakamahi whānuitia ana i te tahi, te rua, me te toru i roto i ā rātou karanga. Heoi anō, e hiahiatia tonutia ana te reo Māori kia kaha ake te whakamahi i roto i te rāngai hoko whare, ā, kei te tohe tonu au kia whānui ake te whakamahi. Ko taku tūmanako, ā te tau 2075, kua roa au kua wehe, ka oti i ngā kaiwhakatū me ngā kaiārahi o tēnei rāngai te whakauru ake, ki te kore rānei ka tino whakamahi i te reo Māori i roto i ā rātou whakawhitiwhiti kōrero.
