About Peter
Residential & Lifestyle Sales
As an Ashhurst resident and local real estate professional, I understand that buying or selling property is one of the biggest financial decisions many people will make. My role is to provide honest advice, clear communication, and practical guidance to help my clients make informed decisions with confidence.
Before entering real estate, I spent many years in the engineering and construction industries, working as a contractor, foreman, and business partner. Those experiences taught me the importance of hard work, attention to detail, problem solving, and following through on commitments—qualities that continue to shape my approach to real estate today.
Having personally bought, sold, renovated, and developed property over the years, I understand both the opportunities and challenges that come with property ownership. This practical experience allows me to relate to buyers and sellers alike and provide straightforward, real-world advice throughout the process.
Since entering real estate, I have successfully assisted buyers and sellers across a wide range of residential and lifestyle properties throughout the Manawatū. Every property and every client is different, and I take pride in tailoring my approach to achieve the best possible outcome in every situation.
I specialise in residential and lifestyle properties throughout the Manawatū, with a strong focus on Ashhurst, Palmerston North, Feilding, Pohangina and Tokomaru. As both a local resident and active member of the community, I understand the unique qualities that make each area appealing and enjoy helping clients find the right property or achieve the best result when selling.
Known for my honesty, reliability, and approachable nature, I believe strong relationships are built on trust, communication, and doing what you say you will do. My clients can expect straightforward advice, regular updates, and the occasional laugh along the way.
As an active member of the local community, I am proud to represent the area I call home and am committed to delivering exceptional service and results for my clients.
If you're considering selling, buying, or simply want an up-to-date opinion on the market, I would welcome the opportunity to help.

It was an absolute pleasure having Peter sell my property. He was incredibly transparent throughout the whole process and took care of all the details - including helping me get the property sale-ready remotely, as I’m based in another city.
With a tight pre-Christmas deadline (the kind most people would call impossible), he had photos organised, an open home scheduled within a week, and interested buyers coming through shortly after.
Nice work, Pete - we did the deal. A genuinely great experience working with you. Regards, Nathan
Pete did a fantastic job selling our house. Right from the beginning of the process Pete made everything nice, easy and stress free. His communication was excellent and he kept us constantly updated throughout the process.
We were wanting to sell in a tight time frame and Pete made sure that happened for us. I would highly recommend Pete to anyone looking to sell their property and would absolutely trust him with any future sales we have.
Client-centred and professional approach Peter is a friendly, approachable person who was always respectful of our wishes. He offered appropriate and timely advice, based on his professional experience. He was very creative in his search for a potential buyer. When drawing up the contract with our purchaser he drew upon his professional expertise to tailor an agreement agreeable to both parties, and his skill at negotiation was a real strength. We strongly recommend Peter as an experienced and dependable real estate consultant.
A pleasure to have been involved with. Peter Colville was so co-operative and gave us great answers to our questions, showing an excellent knowledge of the current market and always had a pleasing manner when dealing with us from start to finish.
Professional and knowledgeable Peter has a down to earth personality and took the time to listen to what my objectives were to sell the property under the circumstances (Deceased Estate). His market knowledge and expectations proved to be very accurate and his professionalism and punctuality when dealing with any on-site issues and or communication was excellent. It was an absolute pleasure working with Peter throughout the sales process and I strongly recommend his services to any prospective clients.
Pleasant Experience Peter Colville made buying our property a hassle free & pleasant experience. Even took us on a quick tour around the area to point out community places. Took his time to show us the property & answered questions we had. His communication was always great & his after sale service has been exceptional as he has been available to ask further questions about the home. Would highly recommend his services.
Peter was great to deal with, flexible and easy going. He allowed us time and access to the property so we could complete our due diligence. Thanks a lot for your work.
A Great Agent!
We recently purchased a home with Peter and had a great experience from the beginning. He was professional, easy to deal with, and remains available to answer our questions throughout the process. His communication is clear and quick, which makes everything feel straightforward and stress-free.
Honest Agent.
Peter went above and beyond to ensure the needs were met by both parties. His communication was honest and quick and guided us well. Peter is professional and ensured a fuss free experience.
Awesome experience.
Absolute pleasure having the opportunity to deal with Peter with buying my first home. Great communication, awesome sense of humor and an all-round great bloke.
For what I thought was going to be a very stressful ordeal, Peter made it very easy and comfortable throughout the whole process. A+, I would highly recommend. Thanks again for making my experience a good one.
