Our Story
WE'VE WATCHED
CHRISTCHURCH EVOLVE
Christchurch has changed — and so has the way your property should be represented.
For the past three years, Calder & Co. Residential has sold 150+ homes across Christchurch and Canterbury — from Amberley to Selwyn, Akaroa to West Melton. Through every neighbourhood, we’ve learned what works in real estate: structured campaigns, disciplined negotiation, and high standards.
Having worked for the competition, we’ve also learned what doesn’t. Layered hierarchies. Inflated overhead. Vendors paying for brand structures that don’t improve your sales results.
Calder & Co. Residential was born and built right here in Christchurch and as a homegrown agency, we know this city, its neighbourhoods, and its buyers better than anyone. We operate as a lean, director-led independent agency, built specifically for homeowners who expect clarity, strategy, and accountability.
Our local knowledge ensures your property connects with buyers across Christchurch. Our regional and national appeal reaches buyers throughout Canterbury and New Zealand. And thanks to our Trade Me Platinum partnership, your listing gains international exposure, connecting with buyers across the globe — the same reach as larger agencies, without the inflated fees. Our 2.5% + GST commission model reflects structural efficiency — not discounting. Same exposure. Same buyer reach. Sharper alignment.
Christchurch is a sophisticated market. Your representation should be too. We are not built to be the largest agency in the city. We are built to be responsible for the outcome.
Our office and lounge is located at 5/242 St Asaph Street, next door to the Little High Eatery, or we’re happy to come to your lounge to discuss your property plans further.
If you are considering selling and want experience without excess, strategy without noise, and accountability without layers — there is a modern, independent, Christchurch-grown alternative.
Kindly yours,
Michael Calder.
Director & Residential Salesperson
What people say about us
Amazing Service.
Amy was so down to earth and motivated to work hard to get what we wanted... our sale was not at all straightforward but because Amy had great communication and was so easy to work with it made the process so much better for us than what we expected. I loved her enthusiasm and professionalism but most of all Amy's calm and extremely friendly, even bubbly personality made it feel more like dealing with a trusted friend than a typical agent. Thanks heaps Hun I would definitely get you to sell for us again!
Real Peace Of Mind.
We had the pleasure of working with Angus Bailey to sell our home, and we couldn't recommend him more highly. From start to finish, Angus was professional to a T—always punctual, well-prepared, and clear in his communication. What truly sets him apart is his reliability; he consistently followed through on everything he said he would do, which gave us real peace of mind throughout the process. His dedication, integrity, and attention to detail made the sale smooth and stress-free. If you're looking for an agent who genuinely delivers on his promises, Angus is your guy.
Genuine Care.
Amy was an outstanding real estate agent from start to finish. She was quick to respond to any enquiries, and no question ever felt like a hassle. Her communication was always clear and timely. At every viewing, she presented herself with absolute professionalism, while still maintaining a warm, approachable vibe that instantly put people at ease. Her knowledge of the market and the process was impressive, and every answer she provided came with confidence and clarity. I always felt like I was in capable hands. Amy’s genuine care and enthusiasm made the entire experience...
Highly Recommend.
Lee Robinson is a knowledgeable and professional realtor that puts his clients needs first. He is very quick in his replys and will go the extra mile for you, it was stress-free and just a joy working with him. I highly recommend Lee for all real estate needs and will definitely work with him again!
He works bloody hard.
Michael Calder impressed us from the outset. We had about five agents through and found Michael to be the most personable. His marketing is outstanding, he listens to you, and he works bloody hard.
Took the time to understand.
We were both vendors and purchasers recently, and we have been grateful to have Michael’s support throughout the process with his never-ending patience and optimism. Michael went to all lengths necessary and beyond to ensure we secured our next move and took the time to understand our motivations. We admire the dedication and pride Michael and his team have.
Truly Outstanding.
His professionalism is truly outstanding. From our first interaction, he was consistently prompt, reliable, and attentive to every detail. Communication was clear and timely, and nothing ever felt like too much trouble. He made the entire process smooth and stress-free, which we deeply appreciated. We wouldn’t hesitate to use his services again. He’s someone you can trust to deliver with integrity and care.
Smooth Sailing.
" I highly recommend Amy. She was incredibly professional and did exactly what she promised. During our first visit, it felt like we already knew her. She was very trustworthy, friendly, and I wouldn’t want anyone else. Thank you very much. "
